Lucky pull! I think the Harpy Skeletons go for like 11-12$ now, they cost as much as the Rares!Cusm wrote: ↑Sat Jan 11, 2025 6:35 pm Dropped by my FLGS after months of being broke and grabbed a booster of Vecna and one of Armies of dead and grabbed 4 Fearsome forces. Not an unbelievable hall, but I’m happy.

Re: What did you buy this week?
Guilty. Although, I gotta say I was surprised at how many awesome DDM minis were still available there. I just thought that everyone probably already has those so they didn't bother with them.
I would gladly eat omelette made out of Remorhaz eggs.
Just have to get the eggs now.

Re: What did you buy this week?
Received a brick of Vecna and Phandelver. Overall did quite well, it was a fun experience as I scored big on the last of each booster.
Phandelver: Oculorb, Chishinix, Voalsh
Vecna: Drider, Laysa Matulin, Vecna, Tasha
Didn't do well on either big rare but those medium rares were great. I opened Voalsh last as well as Tasha. Tasha was the biggest surprise after already getting Vecna and Laysa. Laysa looks great. Very happy to have dodged the rare drow and the 2 Kas and human Vecna.
I will paint the Oculorb, maybe I will like it more then.
5 zombies (missing elf)
4 commoners
6 kuo-toa (missing whip)
Did pretty well with the main 'warbands' that I wanted. Was very happy to have gotten a commoner throwing tomatoes, I love it.
Even though I missed the giant spider I was very happy to have gotten the hook horror I needed. Glad I dodge the Ettin Ceremorph too.
For fiends I missed the barbed devil but got the others (except bone of course).
Didn't get any duplicate large uncommons which was quite nice.
My expected value from Phandelver was $160 and I got $158 so about even.
From Vecna it was $177 and I got $193 which is a big win. Mostly thanks to the 3rd medium rare.
Overall I'm very happy with the quality of both of these sets (Oculorb paint job notwithstanding). These newer sets are more expensive but worth it to me to improve the quality of my collection.

Re: What did you buy this week?
Some more holiday orders that we put in to qualify for some promos we really wanted are coming in!
We got some unpainted mini models that we really liked. If you ask me if I know any of these creatures/characters we'll just say "nope." We just thought they looked super cool and that's just it. xD
I actually have plans on how to use a couple of them. Mostly purple tints to some of them to turn them into void-corrupted creatures (like the dragon and the emissary are perfect for that). The Void corruption is a concept I made for my own setting (that is also a very recurring theme in the books I publish too). There's some fans of my work that pointed me in the direction of a couple of these minis too actually, since they used them for their campaigns this way too so I figured I'd give it a try as well!
But I gotta say... WOW
I honestly did not expect to be so impressed by the Frostclaw miniature. It has this pearl-ish tint/glow on his body and it is by far the best painted PPM I've held in my hands so far. The sculpt is also super cool and for such thin arms, the mini is quite sturdy. It immediately became one of my new favorite minis.
I am so glad we made x2 orders for this mini now.
Oh and, post office hit us with customs. Again. Yay.

For me, a lot of Rumbleslam minis - after Brexit they got really hard to get and the recent sale on Fantasywelt was too hard to resist. Plus, Prince Adam from the 2021 MOTU show.
For two of my friends, some Nolzur's minis and Marvel Legends figures from the sale.
