.... whoa.... and.. mm.. I don't think the price is too bad when you divided it by what's there and stuff.. could easily make it back selling some of the stuff if not wanted..

by far too rich for my blood.

Two auctions with mildly amusing miniatures.

I'm hoping to pick up an Avatar of Kaine model and one of the current auctions has this chap, who does seem to have let himself go in later life, somewhere under that midriff of milliput may lie a six pack, but I'm not sure I'll take the punt.

Then we have this unique terminator, never seen that helmet variation before ... what lies beneath I wonder? Well if the seller didn't want £6.50 for postage I might have taken a punt to find out!

Maybe it's bulking season for that avatar? :grin:

edit. Actually, maybe it's for the best if I don't share this recaster's auctions here.

Given it took me three decades or so to paint my first lot, I will probably pass on this auction:

However if you want some of the Dungeon Crawlers - maybe the slug chaps would look good in a Nurgle army this auction could be a decent buy. RRP for the set of three is £9, auction essentially opens at £9 (inc £4 p+p). My painted ones are here if you want to see them more clearly.

I'd been keeping an eye on this auction partially because it had the first version of the Mighty Fortress and given that was what I had I'd quite like another (the one I painted as a kid is with my brother). The only difference are the turret corners - I actually think the original is better, but presumably it must have had molding issues or something that caused them to tweak the design.

Anyhow for an awesome childhood (mostly 4th Ed WFB) nostalgia I give you: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/205064704119

Curious what it will finish at, currently a bit over £500 with two hours to run. A lot of nice stuff there and alas probably is worth at least that now. Hell the Land Raiders often seem to go for the best part of £100 each now and the Mighty Fortress doesn't tend to drop below £100 now. Steam tanks are probably £50-70 each and the other large beasties a decent few quid. I expect that EPIC Gargant is probably quite pricy too, although I don't know how much they sell for currently.

It's got a bit rich for me, tempting as it is! Might have to look away and let this one go... :)

price was too high for my interest but still pretty good price really. Personally, I wouldn't pay more then £50 for a Mighty Fortress.. which is pretty much impossible right now. And while some nice metals and plastic's there, not enough for my interest.. maybe if I was interested in selling pieces off but.. that doesn't happen much, even if wanted ^_^

That was my feeling - the price might have been about par for the course, but too rich for me given I'd probably have been thinking about reselling a fair whack of it.
