What did you buy this week?

[jaredh]

I gotta suspect the wings are in there somewhere....too many minis together from the same KS.

Check the plastic bags.

[berk the black]

Just find the wings in the haystack, no problem!

Yeah I remember that weird Venus Flytrap Dragon! Hmm at this point I really should ask you for an ebay ID so I can put you on a watch list (though the alerts do not always seem to work).

This lot arrived from J-Subculture, the net result of some months of japanese purchases.

On the miniature front, I got a lot of Yanoman - Demon's Chronicle minis: Sylph (spirit of air from Paracelsus), Lilith (from judaism creation myths), Duke Botis (Ars Goetia Snake-Demon), Succubus, Undine (spirit of water), and Adramelech (also from Ars Goetia, he is one snazzy fashionable Demon Lord, mix of Peacock and Donkey!)

Also got two complete series of Kabaya's Hone-Hone Zaurus - these are sprue built "candy toys" (like KInder Surprise here in Europe but a lot more elaborate) of Dinosaur skeletons. One series has "knights" - robotic mythical animals like Chimera and Jormungandr or Behemoth - which combine with the Dinosaur skellies as armor. The other series has larger boxes each containing three skeletons and assorted invertebrates like Ammonites and Trilobites or Anomalocaris, and they combine into Dragons or humanoid creatures.
Additionally, got the pre-Transformers Microman Egg-Bird (kinda like Laserbeak if he turned into a ball), a cute unknown tank transformer that has a labyrinth puzzle in it, Machine Robo Mach Blaster (a triple changer from a later series of the japanese Gobots line), two Unitroborn figures (yes, they turn from hilarious mismatched things to robots and monsters, like Taxi-Pinetree), a Devilman Lady Animation Memoir artbook from the Go Nagai anime, and two parts for G1 Fortress Maximus for a friend who is buying my older G1 Fort Max toy.

Oh you're gonna love that little council of ghosts! We got all of those things (except the Ghost Dragon) recently to try out ink paints on transparent stuff (because we want to paint our elementals with gradients at some point) and they are all fantastic models honestly. The council has some really cool and unique minis in it.

Not sure if we can justify another huge dragon though, especially a ghost one xD (although a ghost one would be more unique than another chromatic one I guess).

Things finally started coming in.

The 5e Pit Fiend is too lean for my liking. So I grabbed the old DDM one, and the 1e Pit Fiend will make an excellent "Pie Fiend". I just need to find apron that fits him.


Some miscellaneous, gricks and an aboleth will make for some good encounters.

The cartoon chases, and the Stormwreck Isle set:

Overall I'm very pleased with everything. I'm missing Uni but meh with all the bad wash applications maybe for the best. At some point I'll set them up with Gargantuan Tiamat.

Pie Fiend, LOL! Nice one. He certainly looks like he has been eating too many Larvae. (I am guessing in Baator Larvae are the main ingredient for any food...)

Huh, interesting, the GoL Gricks are almost as big as the Alpha Gricks from Phandelver!

[Gelcur]

He was a 3e April Fool's Day gag. When I saw the sculpt I'm like that's a Pie Fiend. So of course I needed a Pit Fiend too

Nice! Question – did the grick base change happen between versions? The models look very similar in height

[Gelcur]

I'll get some better grick shots tomorrow.

Picked up a second set of the Stormwreck Isle minis (not chase versions) so now I have 2 full sets of the cartoon characters

Also picked up a case of Jungle of Despair from Miniature Market sale. That should show up next week

Any time I can pick up a case that came out before I started subscribing on a discount even if I have some from that set I try to snag it.

[bshugg]

Had this small lot arrive today. Traded a few promos and rares for the lot.



2 Cases of Jungles of despair is supposed to arrive today.

Everything but my Pathfinder order came in from Auggies today.

[bshugg]

7 of 8 bricks opened. I stopped on the last when I realized it literally has most of the worst rares in it: Kiren, Skull pole, Human Arcanist, Venom Demon. It's worth way more sealed.

What do you need so many Draegloths for?
