and just an aside, I know we all stray occasionally and spend a dollar or two on some other company's mini-or it's given to us as a gift, or whatever. This pewter can NOT be traded in at Reaper. Only pewter off Reaper minis-it's an issue of everybody's pewter being slightly different and they want quality control.

Oh..and while you're still drooling, at ReaperCon they have LOTS of chances to win free stuff..and I don't just mean a mini here and a bauble there.. I mean SERIOUS free booty like $100+ paint kits, army starter packs, valuable out-of-production goodies like dragons, and tons of groovy nicknacks from the Reaper store at CafePress.com

 

AND THEN there's the paint-n-take table. The name is all it implies. You pick a mini from the two-dozen or so choices Reaper provides, pick out from hundreds of bottles of Reaper paints they put out for people to borrow, and you paint your mini..and KEEP your mini. :) How sweet is THAT!

 

Did I mention the free popcorn? Oh yeah..I did.. but OOOH it's sooo buttery!

Boneyard.

 

Asylum.

 

Food.

 

More classes.

 

Neat stuff in glass case in the Asylum that you discover you must have.

 

Unexpected trip to Home Depot and Wal-Mart.

 

Hotel.

 

Gas/Car Rental.

 

Boneyard, again.

 

Asylum, again.

 

Asylum just before leaving to purchase a Reaper Transport Case to handle the additional pieces you picked up and don't have room for.

 

Another Asylum trip for more paint.

 

Don't forget that just released Warlord supplement!

 

Oh, yeah, post auction, you have to go back to the Asylum to get another t-shirt. Might as well pick up a few more minis while there.

 

Remember a conversion you want to do, so last minute trip to the Boneyard.

 

And then, finally, the Post-ReaperCon Chili's make fun of SD's food because it looks like terrain goodbye meal (most fun EVER).

 

 

So, yeah, lots of money, because there's never enough.

Free stuff! I got the whole set of Warlord books - including the splats - during their auction.

 

I only spent about 200 at the store, and probably another $100 for tickets and events, not counting the hotel or rental car or gas money.

 

And yes, someone said my dinner looked like terrain after we got kicked out of the Asylum on the last day and a bunch of us met for dinner. That's okay though. In all honesty, it did. And the computerized layout of the restaurant looked like a gaming map. And the gravel in front looked like basing material.

 

ReaperCon sticks with you like the best meal you have ever eaten.

That was me. I looked up from my steak & the first thing that came to mind was "Hey, that needs a mini on top of it!! "Terrain!!!"

 

Funny time for all, probably my favorite weekend of the entire year by far.

I was steaming some broccoli the other day and for some strange reason thought of basing a mini on it. Somehow I doubt even the most cutesetest orc would look very fetching covered in hollandaise sauce.
