The only Hobby money I've already set aside is for Maelstrom's Edge and Mod Cubes.

Oooh, far too much. My most immediate plans (ie. Stuff I plan to get in the next 8-10 months or so, as I have a pretty limited budget) are:
- 2 more Tactical Squads to finish off my BA, then I'm calling them done.
- Some Nomads to bring me up to a full force of them, possibly the Corregidor starter.
- One or two more boxes of Dwarves to round out my converted Iron Hills LotR army
- A squad or two of the new AdMech infantry, possibly just for painting
- The Lucius and either Tara or Ironsides crews for Malifaux.
Further down the list, at least 2 more LotR armies, probably using WGF (orcs) and Perry or WGF (Laketown/Dale) minis, possibly more Infinity and Malifaux, and maybe some more 40k if the mood takes me.
Of course, there's no way I'll ends up getting all of that, either because I'll replace/lose interest in projects or just can't afford it all, but that's a rough idea of where I might be going.

Well as i am aiming at collecting at least four armies for the thirty year war, I will need some 400+ models from Warlord. So quite a few boxes of infateri and cavalry, i plan on perhapings using Perry miniatures for commander and battalion leaders, and the same for cannons and the like.
Outside that I need at least four more squads of footsloggers for my early war Colonial French army

For me, since I just got that tax return I've been going on about on various forum posts, I'll be getting the rest of what I need to start fielding Khorne Daemonkin. Specifically:
-2 boxes of CSM Raptors (already have 1 squad assembled)
-CSM Heldrake
-2 CSM Rhinos
-1 box of regular CSM -1 more box of Bloodletters (already have 1)
-Possibly a box of Bloodcrushers or a Skull Cannon (for summoning purposes)
-And, of course, a Bloodthirster! You guessed it, I'm running a Blood Host with Khorne's Bloodstorm!
Of course, after I get all this stuff, I have to assemble and paint it all! But that's half the fun!
P.S. Of course, there may be a few unplanned acquisitions for my Dark Angels and/or Tau armies, too!
My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/7/24, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~16000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Imperial Knights: ~2300 | Leagues of Votann: ~1300 | Tyranids: ~3400 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000 | Kruleboyz: ~3500 | Lumineth Realm-Lords: ~700

Next up is probably some new paints. A few of mine are getting low so I need to restock.
From a mini POV, it depends on how the rumors pan out. If we get new Eldar jetbikes, probably a box of those. Barring anything new and exciting dropping, probably a fire prism.
INSANE army lists still available!!!! Now being written in 8th edition format! I have Index Imperium 1, Index Imperium 2, Index Xenos 2, Codex Orks Codex Tyranids, Codex Blood Angels and Codex Space Marines!
PM me for an INSANE (100K+ points) if you desire.

Raven Guard v. Tau boxed set (if rumor is true)
Adepta Sororitas Codex (if rumor is true)
Robotech RPG Tactics boxed set
One or more sets for an Eldar conversion idea

Next week I'll buy at least one Onager Dunecrawler.
That is a good addition to my Adeptus Mechanicus army since we now have official models. That should keep me busy for some time until the new boxed set involving the Tau is released. I'll probably buy more than one, depending on what's included (please for the love of God no Piranhas).

Yeah I think an Imperial Knight is number 3 model on my shopping list!

About $500 worth of Thunderbolt Mountain Miniatures Wood Elves and High Elves to use as either a Mirkwood, Mid-3rd Age Silvan Elves Army with an allied contingent from Lothlórien or as a First Age Doriath Army with an Allied contingent from Finrod Fealagund.
A TON of Skeletons from Iron Wind Metals re-release of their Chaos Wars lines (Which consist of the old Tom Meier Fantasy Collector's Lines and Guthrie and Mize Fantasy series figures) to use as my army of Undead for the Necromancer.
A Ton of the old Citadel Plastic Skeletons from '86/87/88 (can't recall exactly which year) for a Hyborian Army of Undead. I will need to find some ghouls/zombies/undead for the skill afleshed undead for the Hyborian army.
A Ton of Fantasy Vikings for the Hybrorian Aesir and Vanir (I may wind up sculpting these myself). I could probably use them as double-duty for First Age (Middle-earth) Easterlings of Bór and Ulfang respectively (or would that then be Vanir and Aesir???), since the First Age Easterlings were the equivalent of Vikings,

Yeah. Knights are so cool. A wonderfully convertible kit. I just have to figure out a way to make a sea-drake/serpent for it to fight on the base once I buy it. (Rewarding myself once I paint up my 2k pts worth of marines.)
Concerning the new releases. I'm not saying I'm excited about this but...
Spoiler:
I'm excited. Look at the possibilities. Howl's moving dunecrawler!

Next on my list is paint paint and more paint, since I'm starting back up with it I have nothing. My Girlfriend has got me some nice brushes from the craft store she works at, and I have a few modelling bits in the post. (Cutting matt, knives etc.) But I have a list of paints that I want to get for the colour scheme I have planned.
Anyone know good discount sites for Citadel paint?

I've got a $100 gift card from work set aside for some new Malifaux crews (Brewmaster and Collidi). Other than that I'm trying to reduce my painting backlog, not increase it.

Tools and paints. I'll never get through my existing backlog, as it is, and I don't play anything that would nudge me towards a "new shiny" to stay current. There's a saturation point, with miniatures, but one can never have too many tools.

I'm looking at getting some scenery next (probably Kallistra pre-made lakes because I'm lazy), and some Foundry Amazons for a faction in Of Gods & Mortals.

Between post adepticon sticker shock (so many deals at the bitz swap), getting married in two weeks, and having plenty of projects, I don't see myself buying much any time soon. A few things I'll be picking more than likely are:
- replacement paints for empty pots (which shouldn't count, as If I'm draining paints, I'm clearly painting)
- Bolt Action Germans (Puma, panzergrenadiers, guarding the chateau, etc.)
- Cygnar Stormwall
