Is the Jaques mini limited in any way? Like one per ticket?

I briefly remember that it is tied to the all-weekend ticket or somenthing.

He is limited to 2,000 iirc, most of which is tied to getting the swag bag.

There will be some at the registration desk for sale, but I don't know about limits per person.

Hi gang. I'm new to the forum but my request is similar to another I saw: wondering if anyone would be interested in either A) selling their Jacques from the swag bag; or B) purchasing one for me? I'm not able to attend Adepticon but would really like this Brushfire mini.

Of course, I'll pay in advance if someone would be nice enough to help me out.

Thanks in advance,

-Matt

Hi Darksteed, Snodherm, and WhiteRoo

Okay, I can see this is going to be a common request! Here is what I have done. To keep things simple, I've asked Gymnogyps if I can Paypal her enough funds to pick up several extras at the registration desk. If they have them, she'd pick them up and bring them back to me (we're local) and then I'd contact each of you about payment for the model plus a bit towards shipping. I've done this a number of times before and it would just be "at cost".

So, at this point just keep an eye on this thread after AdeptiCon and we'll update if this venture was successful or not and if it was, I'll send each of you a PM to work out payment and shipping details.

Cheers,
Steve / RiTides

Thank you very much RiTides. Much appreciated.

Thanks Gym/RiTides.

Hopefully Snodherm and Darksteed will stick around a bit as well and join in the fun.

Awesome, thanks for this, RiTides. Hopefully things work out.

Have fun at Adepticon, all, and I hope it goes well!

Well, it's Gymnogyps who is actually going I am having to live vicariously about AdeptiCon this year!

But I did receive the bear that I will use as Arctos Nevsky today

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Kind of wish I was a Yank so I could go to Adepticon.

Wow...

Even better than I thought it will be.

Not that any of my brushfire minis will end up at that standard, but it's a great promo picture. Did you paint that cyp? Or was it commission?

It was painted by Mathieu Fontaine (Studio Akaranseth), commissioned by Adepticon.

Dayum. That rocks.

Wow, he's got attitude!

I'll be getting two of the Jaques (one in my swag bag, one in the wife's) and will probably not be keeping either, as I much prefer the other sculpt with the shield up.

If nobody from my local gaming group wants them, I'll probably sell them on the cheap to somebody.

The proper phrase is, "he's sassy."

Awesome work by mister Fontaine, as always.

Come find me at the OTLG booth. I'll gladly take them off your hands! I'm the mule bringing extras back so RiTides can send to folks who can't make it to Adepticon. But just a head's up, I'm having to leave Saturday...

I broke down and put some feelers out on the local Warmachine forums to see if any of the guys heading to adepticon want to get rid of a Jacques. Maybe I can grab one without too much work

Anyone that is getting a Jacques be warned, AdeptiCon bagged him with the wrong base. He needs a 30mm round lipped base, but comes with a square base. Model looks good otherwise.

Painted version looks awesome. I'm excited for the alt-sculpt, too!

Really wish I could be in Chi-town...

That being said, I'm upping the ante. I'm looking for a second one. Hopefully RiTides will be able to secure one but if anyone has another copy they want to rid themselves of - I'll gladly take him off your hands!

Awsome! This meens I get a free square base!

Gym messaged me yesterday saying there weren't any for sale at the counter, hopefully she was able to rustle some up the more traditional way (it sounded like she had a lead)

Fingers crossed!

I believe we managed to get almost all we needed we might be 1 short

If there is any shortage I have a feeling some other DCMs who are at AdeptiCon will be willing to part with theirs after the fact, depending on how many Gym was able to secure.

Gym managed to snag 3 I believe, I have 1 extra (that I need to ship to Caty) and 1 of the ones Gym was supposed to grab. I'm gonna talk with the Wardens of the Maelstrom tomorrow and see if I can't get some off of them.

Sounds good! If you are able to get more and want to give them to Gym, I'll be happy to ship them out to folks, etc.

I managed to get 1 more and gave it to Cyp, Gym had left already :(
