Hey guys, so I never bought alot of horus heresy stuff until about a month ago. Now that I did find a guy whos shop is open only for 2 hours a week I find myself getting alot and I mean alot of them lol. Nearly all the primarchs and lots of word bear stuff. Plus the 2 first captians all for 200$

Anywhos I was wondering how the rest of you justify buying multiple primarchs and such? I was always just going to buy lorgar but now find myself trying to finish the collection lol.

I need to go to work every day.
Millions of people on welfare depend on me.

I have a whole Emperor's Children army and a Mechanicum army, so I am definitely way past the 20+ mark.

I'm guessing the reason everyone has 20+ is because of BaC. Awesome box...
I actually happen to have a few FW ones from before BaC came out ( I ordered them in anticipation of the set and they came the week before its release, )

BaC is meh for me because, value aside, I'm not a huge fan of MK IV armor. so actual HH models for me looks to be something like:

60 MK III marines (mix of weapons)
30 cataphractii terminators (non BAC)
20 DG special terminators
Mortarion
Typhus
quite a few HQs
6 or so rapiers
MANY more marine things

1 stormhammer
1 dracosan
4 20-man lasrifle squads
4 10-man veletaris storm sections

And that's just what I can remember off of the top of my head.

I'll never be able to repay CA for making GW realize that The Old World was a cash cow, left to die in a field.

Currently I have just 3 models. The Alpha Legion and Iron Warriors consuls that were for sale at the FW open day and a Salamanders consul that I assembled out of mk2 bits that were left over after using all parts I needed for my 40k Chapter (I also gave him an awesome 3rd party reptillian skull shoulder pad).

But I am going to buy the Battle of Calth box as soon as I decide what my main legion is going to be.

Maybe he got them from....... less reputable sources? beyond that, yeah he's loaded. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have the money to field the bulk of a titan legion (using the 1/2/6 pattern of models) but then again, I'd never get to play it.

Think you should have increased the numbers:

2.5K of Alpha Legion (40 Legionaires, Typhon, Deimos Rhinos, Leviathan, Rapier Battery, Characters)
1.5K Mechanicum (Thanatar, loads of Thallax, Magos, Reductor Magos, Warhound)
Random allies - 500 points of White Scars (Breacher Squad, Tactical Squad, Tactical Support squad) and the odd bits of Solar Auxilia (All resin Stormsword, Leman Russ Alpha tanks, Arvus).

LOL no they're all legit, I just plan and save, and plan and save. 30/40k is my only serious hobby outside of my Mustang so it gets a sizable hobby budget. But honestly it's all about just saving up.

can your new hobby be donating to poorer wargamers

then again, I get what you mean. Something has to explain the sheer amount of 30k I have (besides being one of my 2 hobbies)

I do the same, I just have too many expensive hobbies. I have an S2000 and collect guns and watches. My hobby budget is spread way too thin these days.

I bought a copy of BAC. I won't spend money on resin, so those are the only Horus Heresy models I have, and probably all I'm likely to ever buy, unless GW and/or FW release more HH plastics.

Why the resin hate? To much money, or fear of bad molds?

I personally don't like modelling with or painting on resin. It's not hate...I don 't care that FW makes resin models and that people like them.

But on top of that, I totally admit that I wouldn't be spending much if any money on FW anyways, due to the ghastly prices. It's enough these days for me to even want to spend the kind of money GW is asking, let alone FW.
