crisis haul!

[petercooman]

Crisis came, crisis went, crisis oh crisis you got out of hand!  






So usually i take one group picture with all my purchases, but this year they just don't fit!! Went a little overboard, but hey, you only live once right? (anxiously looking around for reassuring words of confirmation   )

the (mostly) planned stuff:

studio miniatures german zombies (and a "not A-team" i couldn't resist), black scorpion undead pirates and an order of perry minis + a bllister of voltiguers from warlord. Yes the exact same blister as last year, but i love the sculpts. i got last year's blister mounted on multibases, this time they will be mounted in singles for skirmish.




also found this book for 2€ on the stand that sells the perry stuff, and got it for free with my order!


great war french expansion + french tanks


the mdf haull:some sarissa kits (and an engineer cart from warbases that was too nice to resist)



the usual hobby stuff


ainsty castings barrels,treasure,trade goods to load my pirate ships (and a table/chair set that wasn't planned, for my sarissa chateau)



So far so good, now for the unplanned stuff  

2€ in the bring and buy! can take 28mm scale.


a load of resin scenery, labeled "the square". never heard of them, got these at plastic soldier company i think. price was right. There is a bag of 3 10mm houses in there, tha ziggurat thing, a big ruin, barricades and broken columns (i will turn the ziggurat and colums into a temple scenery piece)


a big rocky piece from the same stand


And then i passed "emperor toads emporium" stand, and went bananas! Only 75€ for this lot! Could have taken more, but my budget was straining!


small scale scenery 6/10mm (if anyone knows where the houses are from, do shout, no idea of manufacturers)



28mm fantasy scenery


28mm scenery





So a great bunch of stuff, very happy with all of it! (kind of) sticking to the plan, no new games started, only stuff to round out what i have going already!

Yes you only live once and if your significant other finds out how much you spent it may be only briefly

She was there with me.

Blimey! What a haul! 

[Maenoferren]

A great collection of stuff 👍

[petercooman]

Now let's paint that other collection of stuff begore we paint this collection of stuff! 

Only thing i'm regretting is not buying the walking dead's collectors edition for 80 €. Had it in my hands, and my wife said buy it. I put it back and said i'd think about it. Ah well, there's always christmass!

I think she can only handle one shopping spree per year

Good grief !!  

That IS a haul.

Crisis was worth it for me too, although I mostly got books (some pretty rare stuff at very reasonable prices) and paints.
The only 10mm stuff I found that is useful for my current project (late 19th Century Raj), came from MM. Still, a very nice day at an event that could have done with a Pendraken stand, although I do understand that there is probably no profit in it. Mind you, that didn't stop minority interests like 6mm Baccus and Adler from coming...

Wow Peter, you grabbed some lovely looking terrain pieces there.

[Scolty]

Looks like a great day!

Did you have any trouble at customs with your lorry?

Yes, i had to stop myself from putting more in the box. The most expensive one was 10€.

I paid more per piece for the unbuilt sarissa ones!

Really great stuff.
