Moderator Chaoswolf Posted October 3, 2022 Moderator Share Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) Welcome to the picture/chatter thread for round 13. There has been a little talk about running a sci-fi box again. This would not be a box that is only for sci-fi stuff, it just means that it would have more than most other boxes. If you're interested in this, please mention it.

howdyhamster Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Heard about this on the Reaper discord. I participated in a similar thing years ago on Boardgamegeek for print-and-play gaming. Would there be interest in other gaming stuff such as tokens, dice, etc? I certainly have enough Reaper minis to participate, even if it's minis-only. And is there interest in pre-painted game-specific minis? I have a bunch of stuff from the World of Warcraft miniatures game, but they're larger than usual RPG size and have factory paint jobs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bunch of stuff from the World of Warcraft miniatures game, but they're larger than usual RPG size and have factory paint jobs. As for game pieces/dice, there's probably a little interest, but if you wanted to include those items, they'd be considered a donation, not a trade for something you took out. It's just simpler to keep it at a straight swap, figure for figure instead of trying to determine how many figures a set of dice is worth. Also, in the sign up thread, you said: Not active here but heard about it on the Reaper discord. I have a clean trade/sale history on Boardgamegeek under this same username. You don't need to start hanging out here if you don't want to, but I would ask that you at least check in here fairly frequently while this is running as we use the forums PM system for most communications. A couple question for you, if you don't mind: Is your discord handle the same as you're using here? If you can't be reached here, can you reliably be reached there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll still pop in every day or so while this is active. That's what I was already doing while waiting for a reply. 5 hours ago, Chaoswolf said: A couple question for you, if you don't mind: Is your discord handle the same as you're using here?

Moderator Chaoswolf Posted October 8, 2022 Author Moderator Share Posted October 8, 2022 Thanks for getting back to me. Also, I apologize; I missed your second question. Yes, WOW figures would probably be ok. Some of the ones I've seen in person are close enough to be serviceable if you're not too much of a stickler for scale, and they can always be repainted. Once sign ups are complete, and I've had a chance to organize everything, you can always check with the people in your group to see how they feel about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Chaoswolf Posted October 9, 2022 Author Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2022 @Mutilatedlips: You asked: I have a small bag of metal bits that I believe can be reused, Does Reaper still recycle metal weight at Reapercon? If so, is anybody from this thread going to Reapercon? and if so, would anybody dislike having a small bag of metal bits placed in the box to throw their leftovers into and time it for the recycle person to receive towards the end? As of this year, yes. I will be, and I'm sure there are at least a few others. I wouldn't have any issue with that, I'll let others answer for themselves. A question for you: what are the metal bits, something useable like heads or weapons, or is it pieces of sprue and chopped off broccoli bases? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly metal sprues, but a few other things you mentioned, like wings I chopped off or small animals that didn't make it onto a base. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inarah Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 AFAIK they plan to continue the metal trade: bring what you have and trade with what others bring. You can no longer search the factory bins or get custom casting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corbie Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Just looked through the Inarah box! Will probably need to grab the paint cups for space -- You weren't kidding with that note! No idea how you got everything to fit -- and take out some of the toys, but I have some fun stuff to throw in. :3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this is what I had in mind, but I'm still interested 🙂 Would you be able to snap a photo of all of them? You can message me privately so not to flood this thread. Or unless @Chaoswolf doesn't mind or actually wants those pics in here, just post here I guess. EDIT: BTW I appreciate you sharing that photo!

I just grabbed a handful and opened them for that photo. I have a list of them here, wound up not making any trades, so ignore the want list: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2562202/article/36600327#36600327 And the website CCGcastle has images of everything opened. Not sure of the rules for linking outside game stores so I'll leave it at that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnwulf Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 I was considering if I wanted to ask to be on a different box this cycle as I was in the same box several times before and was seeing some of the same stuff, then I realized that round 9 was the last time I participated, so yeah, should be some change now..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
