I'm not planning on switching out from Reaper paints to Vallejo paints any time soon but I did at least want to give their primer and sealer a shot.

The Mecha varnish is absolutely amazing stuff.  Absolutely love it, and dries nice and tough too.

I broke down and bought the paper copies of Tribal 2.0 and its supplement, Primeval by Mana Press. I was really hoping that North Star Games was going to carry them, as I wanted to order some minis from them at the same time. I ended up buying them from the UK, shipping was marginally cheaper than from Australia and probably faster. 

 

I got this really cool ceramic Hathor as a cow statue from Dollarama of all places. It's actually made in Egypt. Best $4 spent all month. When it warms up, I will spray paint it and fill it with sand and use it as a bookend. I also bought two Tawarets for $4 a piece for the same purpose.

The FLGS has an annual 12 days of discounts sale this time of year, and today was the 1st day and "just happened" to be 20% off wargames (I have my suspicions as I had mentioned to one of the owners yesterday afternoon that I'd be in today (I still can't drive due to the back surgery, but had appointments in the neighbourhood) and then an hour or two later the 1st day sale was announced ).  Needless to say I did acquire a few things (other things my wife acquired that I won't get until the 25th.....).

A couple of upgrade expansions for my Stormtroopers.  I recently realized I only had 2 of the expansion, but have 6 units of troopers, so got two more, and will order in two more after I get some more of my stormtroopers actually painted....

And I grabbed the new Alpha Strike box.  I'm hoping to actuall play both Btech and Alpha Strike next year.  There is a local guy who plays trying to get some games going, so hopefully I can learn to play and get some games in with all those minis I got from the KS......

Was able to get into the FLGS last night and hang out while two of the guys were playing Bolt Action, which was really nice. (still a while until I can play anything....bending over a gaming table to move figs is like the worst thing I could do to my back).

 

The store was nice enough to let me pick up the new Star Wars Legion releases, even though the official release date is today, saving me another trip (which also saved my wife a trip, since I can't drive until the surgeon clears me.)

20221216_IMG_0547.JPG.89597bdbe2245f7f6167e9dc0d1c80e6.JPG

The very nice, but stupidly expensive, Crashed X-Wing Battlefield Expansion (which I see is face down...the front has the same picture, but different words.....) and the Mando era Boba Fett (aka dad-bod Boba).

I also picked up a blister of Afrika Korps Krad schutzen Motorcycle & Sidecar for my Bolt Action Afrika Korps army (to be assembled *soon ).

Ended up getting myself the Heroquest Frozen Horror expansion for an early Christmas gift. Just got delivered today.

 

Now I really need to put those games to use with the companion app. Just need to find the best way to set up that huge game board, I don't have that much table space in the apartment.

I did kinda of a snap order with mini market this morning, more or less saw they got in the resin/plastic Starfinder miniatures from Archon Studios & while I'm not planning on playing any Starfinder any time soon (thou it would be a nice change of pace), I did pick these guys up:

 

psf0018.jpg

Love Paizo take on goblins! I saw them yesterday & they had 8 in stock, when I saw them at 2 am this morning, they were down to 4, so the reason for the snap order.

 

I also picked up a few Spelljammer prepainted minis (Astral elf sword up x3, Hadozee Fighter x3,), a 100+ Ultra Pro Deck box to hold my Nord Games crit hits & misses decks & Wizkids base pack (black) x3 (which tbh, I didn't think they made anymore!).

 

Early (or in the case of minimarket's shipping late) Christmas gift to myself.
