The little metal guy with the spikes is one of Reaper's Bloodstone Gnomes (there's a whole faction of them), the little paladin is a gnome (77681 Blink Berenwicket), and the frog-thing is actually supposed to be a Blue Slaad... Amusingly, you grabbed almost half of the stuff I just put in, lol - the gnome, the knight, the mini-taurs and the two Hordes figures were all from me. Now I'm totally picturing the High Priest of the Mushroom God, some spaced-out druid who's sampled way too much of his master's bounty, that the party needs to keep focused on reality long enough to get coherent info out of him... This concept kind of reminds me of the eccentric Mad Hermit from B2 Keep on the Borderlands; its a great chance to really role-play. Good supporting roles like that make the game so much more memorable. You could throw Captain Trips into a myconid section of an adventure too; throw in Zuggtmoy (she seems to be behind everything--I think someone at WoTC had a black mold problem and is projecting) and you've got a serious quest going. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Chaoswolf Posted March 6, 2021 Author Moderator Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) What I took: Medusa Reaper Thug Some old GW shields 4 resin bases a resin arcade game and ATM a whole mess of Bloodstone Gnomes a Shadow CAV/Mech/Big Stompy Robot Steampunk Alice and Toto I also cleaned out the box, removing a bunch of stuff that has been in there for 2 or 3 rounds, and took some figures out of blister packs to make more room.

Moderator Chaoswolf Posted March 6, 2021 Author Moderator Share Posted March 6, 2021 Question for everyone: When I was cleaning out the box, I discovered some broken figures ( some Bones black, and some Wizkids Nolzur's figures ). I've looked at 'em all, and the breaks are all nice and clean and easy to fix with a drop of glue. Will people take these, or are they going to live in the box forever because they're broken? I realize that if the figure is one you probably wouldn't want anyway, it's gonna stay in the box, but if it's one that might be tempting would you take it, or ignore it 'cause it's broken? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know my way around glues. I'd take em if any interested me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was appealing and an easy fix I'd still take it. Wouldn't be my first time fixing broken minis. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inarah Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 As long as all the pieces are there I'd take it. I've been gluing minis together since the 80's. Broken figures missing arms, heads, wings, etc. should be labeled as "bits for conversion". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratmaster2000 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 or hold them off till the next in person Reapercon, can be used for the conversion class:) Or, as others have said, if it's complete or something I like, I'd take it and glue it back together. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would consider them, I do conversions occasionally anyway. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a complete figure and I'm interested I would take the figure. Otherwise, depending on the piece, it can be fun conversion bit. =) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take it if it looked like a bit of glue would fix. Probably pass if it looked like it would take a pin or some sculpting to fix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGP Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I have been making slow progress with the box. But I have been a big fail at posting pictures. I think the last posting was this here, the medics were starting to work on the box. Pictures have happened. But I just need to fish them out of the phone. After getting emergency treatment, the box returned to the floor. Because desk was in no state to sort through anything. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
