Serenity Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) Tangentially related to the hobby (storage for STL files or pictures, etc.), Walmart has some flash drives on sale. In particular I found the Sandisk 256 GB Ultra and Sandisk 64 GB Ultra 2-pack with good discounts. The flash drives came up as tax-free (it is a Missouri tax holiday on some items this weekend), so I saved a couple dollars that way. Edit: Ordered Saturday. Arrived today.

aku-chan Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 I haz Fairies! My Household RPG Kickstarter set arrived today. They're really nice (Actually it's all pretty snazzy, pity I don't have any use for the books and stuff), sadly I doubt the company will make any more, they're no longer partnered with CMON and I'm pretty sure it was them that pushed for the Kickstarter to have minis in the first place (It is their thing). 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranky Dog Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 After seeing talked about several times on Discord, I got myself one of those portable LED lamps on Amazon. It uses 4 AA batteries or can run from a USB port. No standard wall plug adapter with mine though I guess most USB chargers will do. With some of my rechargeable batteries, I put it through a stress test. Over 24 hours at maximum intensity, and nearly 72 hours at lowest (I'm guessing, I left for work before it shut itself off). In both cases, as the batteries die the light fades. But with ambient surrounding light, it's more than bright enough for short paint sessions, even the full duration of RCon. They're cheap enough I wouldn't be surprised to one day see them in a Reaper swag box. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been thinking about ordering a portable lamp, and I am tempted to do so this week so I have it for ReaperCon. I just have no idea what lamp to get. That said, I suppose the risk is minimal, as this one costs less than $15. I might go ahead and order one too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Softech LED with 4 light modes and a touch sensitive panel which I would recommend, but I see there is a similar Tenergy lamp with USB port and 5 brightness levels that is much cheaper. Either would be good for reading or painting, and fold up for travel. You may also want an extension cord if you plan to use it someplace like the middle of a giant hotel ballroom. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper_the_2nd Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Set this aside at the FLGS to pick up last Thursday, but finally remembered today.... I've been watching and enjoying the series, so figured I should at least get one of the Gundams..... 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aku-chan Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Pre-ordered a limited Cities of Sigmar starter set (Not sure why I'm so fascinated by this particular faction but I want everything they've previewed so far), won't know if I actually made it on the list until later in the week, but I'll be able to get the minis later in the year if I didn't. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aku-chan Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 On 8/2/2023 at 9:46 AM, aku-chan said: Grumble... Between ordering and shipping out, they ran out of Skarre's (Disappointing) and the Ashlynn d'Elyse, Queens Blade sets (The main thing I wanted). Wish they had let me know before they sent them out, I probably would've cancelled my order. Had success on Ebay tracking these two down, got a Skarre from Spain and an Ashlynn set all the way from Australia! Hopefully my Ebay luck continues, trying to win some Kingdom Death Armour Sets (I've got 1 out of 3 so far). 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
