Inarah Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 What would you buy? What's been on your wish list that you'd grab if $50 (35 euro, 30 pounds) fell into your hands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haldir Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Surprisingly it's not a Reaper (Reaper are about 95 to 98 percent of the minis I buy) but it's Princess Malya & Mr Tomn Hell, I'd even paint it pink too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stubbdog Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 1. Are we talking for painting, playing games (Warlord, CAV, RPG, etc...), collecting, or other end usage? 2. How far are we wanting to try to make it stretch? I mean I could easily blow it all on a single dragon, or I can try to get the most mileage in terms of smaller models.

Inarah Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 1. I was thinking mostly painting and collecting, but if filling out an army list is what you want, that's fine. 2. That's up to you, it's your wish list. And they needn't be Reaper figures. I'm just polling to see what other people like and would get, given the opportunity.

joshuaslater Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I'd knock elderly people over in a mad dash to grab shiny pewter, much less seize your offer. I'm'a excuse myself from this thread right now. Okay, I'd get some Magister Militum 15mm models that were formerly Reaper, and start a new scale of gaming.

fodder Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Definitely 3 or 4 of Reapers Elven Royal Guardsmen and a box of Caesar minis 1/72 Elf set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warlordgarou Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Wow. Well, since I suffer from AADD (Army Attention Deficit Disorder), any of these would be on my list. (All are roughly $50, give or take): Dream Pod 9 - Mammoth Strider Custom Pack - don't need one yet, but it's a nice big stompy robot. Privateer Press - Nightmare, Karchev the Terrible, Beast 09 - technically, I could only use the Nightmare right now, but someday I will get Khador again. Hordes - Mulg the Ancient or the Dire Troll Blitzer Wargames Factory - I have thought about getting a box of the Zulus and a box of the Brits, just for a diorama. Reaper - Goroloth, Hill Giant There are more, many more I am sure, but those are the ones off the top of my head that I would get mainly just to paint them. For army purposes, I have dozens of things, from FoW, Dixon cowboys, DBA armies, Romans and Germans for some FOG armies, etc. . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug's Workshop Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I would hire a babysitter for several hours so I could actually get some painting done. Not necessarily on topic, but it's what I'd do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronoplasm Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I'd get pig-faced orcs from Otherworld minis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgtriplec Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I could have fifty $50 mini withlists, but I just saw this and feel it calling to me. It will be my first super mini. Isn't she wonderful :wub: http://www.ultraforgeminiatures.com/treewoman.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwyksilver Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I would hire a babysitter for several hours so I could actually get some painting done.Not necessarily on topic, but it's what I'd do. I have more than enough metal to last me for a lifetime. I think I have to agree with your line of thinking though Doug since it has been far far too long since I have put paint to brush.

Amalor Myrnnyx Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Well, if I didn't immediately soak it back into the BattleTech fund, I would go for this guy: The Golem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruunwald Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 The answer to this question changes every few days with whatever new idea comes into my head. Today, it's the old stock of Warmachine one of my FLGS has gathering dust, which is still priced from six years ago, or more. Last night I was looking at it, and now I'm thinking with $50 I could grab three of those warjacks (two of them heavy), paint 'em and sell 'em.

fodder Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 The answer to this question changes every few days with whatever new idea comes into my head. Ditto. I got a hankering to do some UC era Gundam. HLJ has a sale on a couple of sets. I wouldn't mind finally taking the plunge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyHorde Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Reaper Master Series: U.S. Army Serviceman (54mm). I'd paint him up as a gift for a soldier returning from his second tour in Afghanistan. The rest of my list is subject to change without notice. Today's version: Reaper Master Series: Monique De Noir (54mm) Reaper Warlord Dire Bear (Dwarven faction) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
