Someone brought in all their mini's into the local game store to sell and while there were a few other kits I thought about getting, my wallet was trying to kill me for these three. So, I just got the 3.  Changing Hands Bookshoppe in Joplin, MO if you want to go by and see what's left.  Some nice single old Dark Heaven green backed mini's that were 3 for $10 and then the boxes and I think there may have even been some terrain boxes.  All old like from the 80's-90's.  I started getting into gaming then so I had some of them ore I might have went crazier..

That's an entire country away for me, but look out for Mad Jack coming in hard and fast.

 Let me know if you all think that $50 total was a good deal for the things in the pic. They are my grail kits and I have been looking for them since they came out.

 

 Just randomly out of idle curiosity, and not for nefarious reasons, but what's your exact street address, and do you have any sort of home security system? ::D:

 

I live on the house right ff the river of Denile.. LOL   Do you guys think I did alright pricewise?

Hell, yes...

 

Ebay prices can fluctuate, but each one of those boxes could easily cost $50 online at one of the resellers in a good-condition box with all the pieces - hell, right now Noble Knight has the RP Fearless Frost Dragon box priced at $75... :rolleyes:

You did much better than 'all right' - you made out like a bandit. All of those Ral Partha boxed sets are long, long long OOP, and routinely go for a lot more per box than you paid for all three.....

 

I'm not saying those, alone could pay for a Gencon trip, or anything (although some of the prices I've seen on on the Bay of Evil would suggest it)... but it would be a really good start.

You got a heck of a deal there! $50 for all three of those is a steal!

I'd have gladly paid that.  I have one of those still basically NIB (box was opened, but never painted or trimmed), and had one of the others (and regret losing it).  Yeah, they would not pay for an entire GenCon trip.  But they would pay for badge, event fees, and still have some left over.  IIRC, they average in the low triple digits each on the secondary market.

Pre-ordered a few of Tre's new minis. He's trying pre-order rather than KS, I think it's a good move and there's some nice new stuff.

Where?

Couldn't see any mention of pre-orders over on Red Box...

The first 10 products on the "What's New" page at Red Box are what he is talking about....

Dilvish told me about it on the hangouts last night.

It seems it was being promoted on the book of face, which I am not on....

Dilvish said it is expected to deliver in March if I remember correctly....

 

Went in for Mother Hermione's Host.........Pre Order Bundle Deal...

 

Much to the lamentations of my wallet....

Anyone know when the preorder deal is over?
9 February I believe

Takhisis goes for about $125, as does Lord Soth's charge...

 

So when can we expect to see another Queen of Darkness painted?

Yes, assuming they are not empty boxes.  I paid $250 just to get my Takhisis and Soth's Charge. 

 

What number is the Takhisis?

 

ETA - Depending on when a person was hunting, and how much competition there was, it would not be unreasonable for all of that to run $500-600 US.  At $50, or $16+change each, and adjusted for inflation (that $16 now was roughly equal to $8 20+ years ago), not only did you get a deal against present collectible value you essentially got them for at least 60% off original MSRP.   

 

ETA 2 - If the boxes are in very good condition, it's likely those alone could get $50.

The boxes look like they were made yesterday and the number on her is 2771.  And yes they are indeed full of the advertised product and none have even been trimmed of flash.  It looks like they  were bought opened and then put on a shelve and then left until I go them.
