I was wandering around on this thread and saw quite a large number of items you'd been acquiring recently, pretty good pile of loot! Hopefully this weekend I'll be cataloguing it all. I may post the list so all of you can bask in my lame glory while sitting on your furniture made from spare parts of hundreds of old Partha dragons... On a related note, I now own both versions of RP 01-084 Evil Lord on Litter with Bearers, although version 2 only came with one of the bearers: Edited July 26, 2018 by Mad Jack 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unruly Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 10 hours ago, Gadgetman! said: Don't hesitate, get one! Mine is made of a soft thermoplastic that's shaped using a plaster cast of my upper teeth, so it fits very snugly. And because it's transparent, it may not even be all that obvious to anyone you happen to smile at while wearing it. It's not a matter of hesitation, it's a matter of finances. Though I did look online and found a company that I can order one from for less than half of what my dentist's office wants to charge me. They send you the putty and the tray for making a mold, you make the mold yourself, send it back in a prepaid envelope, and then they make the cast and the guard. All for about $130 vs about $300 at the dentist's office. And more than likely they're one of the same companies that the dentist's office uses to make the thing themselves. So I may try doing that in a month or so when I have the money. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylverthorne Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I have acquired a fish. He's presently investigating the new digs (technically, he was acquired hours ago; he's only been in the tank for an hour). Now, I just need to find a suitable plant for the top. (and, for the record, I don't recommend a round tank for any kind of tank set up. Mine looks very cool, but the fact is that it's a crappy setup. Don't muck about with round tanks; get a square tank. You'll be much happier). 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They protect your teeth from much more expensive damage, after all. It may be an idea to ask the company if they have an option for two guards from the same cast. Never hurts to have a spare. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never hurts to have a spare. They do. And they keep your cast on file for 2 years, letting you order another one within that time at a reduced price. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talae Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Ordered some dice on Amazon that are on sale. 126 dice (18 sets) for $19.09! Yellow Mountain Imports. The reviews are very favorable. I normally try to wait to post until my order arrives, but thought other might want to buy these. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I need it for RCon & it needs painted! This order was from Scale 75's US website. I just wanted the four colors to play with as they were different than the Reaper colors I already had. The Scale 75 website is the only place I have found that sells the single bottles. I received my order in about a week. I got my Fantization order on Monday July 23. The hold up was the paint. They were waiting on a shipment from Spain. Don't know if there is any left at Fantization. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unruly Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) I did a bad, and blew my budget because of a sale. I ordered a whole bunch of airbrush paints and a couple spare parts. All paints are Badger Minitaire. Royal Blood, Nautilus Blue, Spellslinger Blue, Lagoon Blue, Innards, Regal Red, Irradiated Yellow, Mustard Gas, Gremlin Green, Orc Complexion, Rock, Skull White, Desolated Beach, Bark, Pestilence Flesh, Rotted Flesh. The airbrush parts were a couple trigger pads, a plunger spring that will be getting used as a tensioner for an adjustment knob, and a little thing of thread sealant wax(aka beeswax). I got about $50 worth of stuff for a little over $40 before shipping. After shipping it was $56, because Badger really rakes you over the coals on shipping for some reason. Still ends up being cheaper to order the paints directly from them most of the time, though. Edited July 28, 2018 by Unruly 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldamir Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I accidentally bought more HassleFree fellas.. the whole pack of Norse Dwarves in particular.. plus a couple cuz I just couldn't resist.. Also, a few weeks ago, I stopped by the FLGS with a couple of old magic cards to sell. Turns out they only do store credit, so I got what I wanted that night for free (don't think I posted those?) Used the rest of the store credit last night, so these were sorta free.. This reminds me, I've let my mini-tracking spreadsheet get out of sync.. I don't know what I got from the store the other week, and am pretty sure my Jul Reaper order didn't get put in either.. /twitch! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did order during a special sale so maybe they are backed up. I'll prob send a email off tomorrow or Monday. 1 hour ago, Unruly said: I did a bad, and blew my budget because of a sale.

Only big thing in the order was a coiled hose, rest were small parts. At least the savings was more then the shipping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zink Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Have finally acquired my Mantic Terrain Crate Kickstarter stuff. 1 box each of the Battlefield, Town and Dungeon. Had typical "fun" with UPS do get it delivered. They message me saying it can't be delivered because it was sent to a post office box and there's import fees. Call them and get told they don't ship to PO boxes. I reply that I never order anything by UPS but sometimes shippers still send that way. Pay the fees and tell them my street address. A couple days later get another message saying they sent the parcel Canada Post so I had to wait another few days to get it at the post office. Not a big deal but why make me call them and give them a delivery address if they weren't going to use it anyhow? Took a week longer than it should have to get because of the delay in calling/messaging back and forth. Now I just need to find the time and energy to do anything hobby related. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
