So, how did everyone do this Christmas for AoS? Did Santa-Sigmar bring lots of goodies?

Me? I managed to snag a Squig-Gobba, Giant Chaos Spawn and a simply massive Bonegrinder Giant!

I got $100 of Amazon gift cards that I'm saving for Tzaanuary.

Battletome: Bloodbound. Huzzah.

I bought myself some glue!

Sadly no job, so have to be content with what I have and putting it together slowly.

Just a box of chaos Warriors, sadly. I also treated myself Saturday to the start collecting nurgle Daemon box to kick off my new Army. The annoying part is going to be assembling them because I hate assembling figures

Our Lord and (Undead) Saviour Nagash was kind enough to send me a SC: Skeleton horde box and got me a Plagueclaw from those filthy Skaven so I can turn it into a Screaming Skull Catapult, so I've got my work cut out for me!

I got some cash to use next month on the Disciples of Tzeentch.

Bought myself the spite of dawn set and present wise got the skaven battalion box... I don't know if it's tears of happiness or dread at the fact I have 120 skaven to put together...

Received Skarbrand today (bought him myself though). Didn't get anything else though. Was reading his AoS rules though, and he's a BEAST!!

Yes, glue is a pretty darn good thing to get. If i could get a year's supply of glue... heaven. it would be heaven.

big time, already ran out ...again...many kairic d-bags wont be based for a bit

$100 GC, Blood Bowl, Skaven Warlord in plastic, 2 Start Collecting Flesh Eater Courts

My wife said she would leave the warhammer to me and buy me clothes. I ordered a box of bloodreavers.

I got given a war mumak from the hobbit range which I'll now have to find a use for in Sigmar....

General of the Empire
High Elf Archmage and Mage
Dragon Princes of Caledor (to go with a box I already bought)
Lord of Slaanesh on Daemonic Mount (still on special order but on it's way)

Ironjawz! Brutes are IMHO the best 2016 plastic kits GW did!

I received the Age of sigma starter box set of my wife . Normally I like 40k but this is a nice change and I'm looking forward to painting some of these.

Skeleton Start Collecting bundle. Looking forward to painting it up, just a little disappointed with the Battleline options Death gets, so it may end up just being something to display... which is quite alright with me.

I got a Thunderfist.

I'm snagging models form it to finally round up my 1000pts 6/7th ed pirate Orcs list, though (I actually don't remember, started them 10 years ago o.O). The giant will be a mercenary canon, the warboss can be turned into a Bioshock Big Dadd (or is that Big Mekky?) unit filler for my main unit of Orcs, a goregrunta will donate its body to be modified into a nice steampunk jetski and but I still need regular boars and a Kommandoz Nob, because there's NO way those gruntas will fit into hamster wheels to power the two chariots/hovercrafts I still have to built. Two Brutes already received a terrible Lustrian curse (and the Sigmarine-with-jawz and orc-skull-with-jawz shoulder pad bits as heads), to make them into Pirates of the Carribean/Legion Orc the Damned dudes and at least one grunta dude will follow. I figure I can use them as merc ogre Maneaters. Or play Hinterlands with them, if my brother wants to get into it.

The Sylaneth BF for my bro sadly fell through, the store did not get *any* copies from GW to fulfill their preorders, my Garden of Mor and plastic wood were posted on the 23rd -'cuz Wayland slept on confirming the payment for two weeks until I contacted them- and my swamp battle mat is rather dark, so I don't know if I will keep it.

I got a healthy haul.
2x Death Start collecting boxes
60x Skeletons
10x Blightkings
1x Warshrine
6x Nurglings
1x Harbinger of Decay
1x Coven Throne
6x plague drones
30x plaguebearers
20x bloodreavers
20x chaos marauders
1x Necromancer
1x Tomb Banshee

Of course I explained this to my wife as some of this was for our 'sons' Christmas

I decided to use my Christmas money to start a Sylvaneth army. Picked up a Darkroot Wargrove off Amazon, and I have a buddy that was about to start the army, but switched to Death before actually opening anything, so I'll be grabbing his battletome and SC box for cheap. My FLGS also has a stack of nine Wyldwoods that someone donated to the shop still on the sprues. They said they'd give me one hell of a deal on them! After I pick up a couple extra Dryads, Revenants, and Hunters, I should still be able to pick up Alarielle and have a pretty damn solid army for a little less than $400

Got a Darkroot Wargrove that I ordered for myself. Have some cash saved up for Tzaanguary. Also got the Sylvaneth Battletome as an actual gift. Yay!

@Entyme

Yeah, for me I grabbed one SC when it was halfprice and then got around 30% off the Wargrove. So once I add the last SC I'm sitting at a decent 2k list with some options for less than $300

I got a gift card that became 2 boxes of Kurnoth Hunters & Alarielle.

That and an absurd number of Genestealer Cult minis. 40k, I know, but still part of the haul.

Well, it is now a fact that i got more than glue. I opened my door today to find a package from my sister. it had the spire of dawn set in it.

i am both excited and horrified. Excited because it's an amazing gift! and horrified because my project list is already too long...

and i'm going to need to buy more glue.

Yeah. I was down to less than a dozen unpainted minis before I decided to pick up two Battleforces and start a new army this month.

You guys are so lucky.

I have never been able to convince anybody but my dear old mum that I am really happy with GW vouchers.

''Your so difficult to buy for''
''I didn't know what to get you. You already have so many little men''

And yet apparently I don't have enough socks or woolly hats...:-D

My mother once asked me what models she could buy me for my birthday. I actually went to the webstore, added three or four kits and some paints I needed to the shopping cart. I told her she could go to the store where I play and ask them to order anything or nothing from the list she wanted to. She said "I'll just give you cash".

I would love a new wooly hat. it's cold here!

i'm less lucky in this case and this is more that i'm doing a huge favor for my sister in a month. she did tell me she was sending me something as a thank you, but i was expecting an amazon card or some such! Iyt was a very pleasant surprise.

I generally have never asked for hobby related things other than paints or glue, though. i figure the plastic guys themselves are either too pricy or confusing.
