Nice job. I was really tempted by those, too. I can see myself building a Night Goblin army now though. Those models are just too nice.

They came with the Kill Team box set those lot. The models released afterwards are really nice too, especially the vehicles. Nice industrial aestheethickicty.

Yeah Night Goblins (New AoS comes with a nice selection as well as the tree pixies)
Yeah Beastmen. Yeah Seraphon (Think these are on Harrisons WANT list)

Is Kill Team good?

Post subject:  Re: Tabletop wargaming - nerdlinging to the max...

I'm enjoying it yeah.

Still only playing the basic (get started rules*) as I only ever play it with my son, and it's all new to me really (only ever really painted / collected before). We're both enjoying it, as much for the time spent together building and painting as the actual game though. Need a few more games before we play 'properly'.

The boxed game is good value that I bought as you get everything you need, I had a long wait for the reprint to come back on sale, not sure what the situation is like these days.

*happy to post up pics of the sheet, can't find it online.

A couple of squads I did a while ago. Just decal-ed the breachers so good time to do them.

I need to get some proper front lighting to get the side profiles better.

Frum Whomed? Great price, even better than the people I buy from. I've already bought the Rogue Trader Nurgle half this month, but I can stretch to those too.


edit: ne'er mind, found some for 6 quid all in.

Surprised they're that reasonable for the beastmen. The 9.99 for two chaos marines can gtff, though.

Yeah, price is at odds with other stuff from the set. :shrug:

Good for us who remember the Pestigors etc 1st time round.

Post subject:  Re: Tabletop wargaming - nerdlinging to the max...

They did a 1 week made-to-order of the old beastmen a few months ago. Still too spenny at aboot 40 quid for a herd iirc. I was hoping after the Tzaangors got a 40k version we'd see the return of beastmen proper considering how much they're in the fiction too. Nope.

eBay fleecers aren’t biting at my offers on Space Hulk (2014) sets :( Hope GW put out a new set set soonish.

So I think I’ll pull the trigger on Theta-7 Kill Team set & a brace of Warglaives from Wayland games. Also a Wall of Martyrs scenery trench that’ll be good for Kill Team action too.

Started my Mig-15 kit last night, spurred on as Harrison wanted to build the Airfix Typhoon he bought on Sunday.

Progress pics to follow.

Oh, and as soon as I'd bought the Theta-7 / Warglaive / Wall of Martyrs... one of the eBay sellers came back with a counter offer on a shrink wrapped Space Hulk. Sods law.

My beastmen arrived. Minus two arms... seller apologetic and sorting this out though. In case you’ve not already built yours Dimmers, snip the internal pins down a bit as mine didn’t quite fit together as they came.

Theta-7 box set is here :luv: a deliciously heavy box of plastic, the Mars pattern scenery is really thick and heavy, very practical seeing as our current scenery gets nudged about with range finders. Balphamus Vaulk :nerd: himself is a beautiful fat ball of a sculpt, think this is the only way you can buy him. Still undecided as to build his cohort as Rust Stalkers, Sicarian Infiltrators or a mix.

I have just finished putting them together a 'our ago. I went for removing them entirely as I did with the easy-to-build things. My Gellerpox Infected arrived yesterday too. Nice mini-codex included.

Seems to be a common thing with the push fit models, remember it being the same with the Blight Hauler and Plague Marines.

Massive off chance, but does anyone have any Space Hulk first edition era metal terminators they'd part with for reasonable cash-monies?

I do have some original pewter termies I bought when I was an nipper. I'll dig around and see if I can find em.

Bah. Looks like I sold them in the last purge. Could only find one body hidden in my classic chaos termies baggie.

Thanks chap, I appreciate you looking. I'm trying to get a couple of squads together for Space Hulk with the decent pewter chaps from around that time but ebay is taking the piss.

They're the generation after I think.
I've got 8 chaos terminators but it's even harder to find those so I can't round those out to two squads :-/

I'd get anything shipped to my parents in the U.K. and get it off them next time I'm back...

I've just been rooting around in The Auxiliary Dork Fortress (the back of the garage) looking for those termies, as I was sure I had some of the original plastics from Spulk.v1. Nope. BUT(!) I did find the horde of Genestealers from it. Painted terribly by an 11 year old me and my mate. Any use?

Yeah very easily. Soak in Dettol for a day or so.
