So as you know I managed to get four Beasts of Nurgle at an acceptable price because their feet were missing. Then I went and noticed you are supposed to have them in units of seven, so occasionally I glance back on ebay thinking I might get lucky one of these days (£20-30 is probably as much as I really want to pay ideally)
Noticed this auction https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/375881044594
which I briefly looked at as Beasts are often £70+ minimum and seeing one cheaper was worth a quick glance.
Thought it very odd the model was primed in silver ... so what is that hiding I wonder? Is it just they didn't want to strip the model of paint and making it look "metal" gets more clicks on ebay? Then I looked at the rest of the shop and that seems to be their thing, along with a LOT of flash, an awful lot of flash. Now I'm no antiques roadshow expert when it comes to miniatures, but I suspect most (probably all) are re-casts despite the pristine feedback.
Thoughts from the more experienced eyes?
