Before I even completed my Imperial Guard army I was already thinking of a second. Conveniently the only other army that interested me were the Genestealer Cult. So before I even got started I've got a ton of proxy models, but it's nice to actually start the next collection proper.

 

Yay! Glad someone has a use for those old (bought in the early 90s? When Space Hulk first came out I think) Genestealer cultists! Never got around to getting any game rules for it to try and play so they've just been lingering.

When I came across vintage figures for a faction I actually want to play I knew they weren't staying in the box. I'm kind of a sucker for old figures and I always want at least a few in my army.

 

When I started my first 40k army I initially wanted to play the old praetorian guard regiment. Price was the deciding factor in abandoning that idea however. Recently I acquired just five of the old metal sculpts and that set me back about sixty bucks. Knowing I run infantry heavy lists I try not to think about the cost of a whole force.

Selections made and replacements added - I'll try to get at least one picture tomorrow; but I'm demonstrated bad at that part - and.. I'm just waiting for the address from the next in line. ^^;

 

Please feel free to guess what I put in, for I'll not speak of it here. ^_~

It's funny to see the Reaper archway piece in almost every picture. ha ha.

 

I got my 1st one with my October 1st order last month. It's an ok piece, it suffers a tad bit of bending issues but that is common in a piece like that.

I literally had just ordered one in September before they announced it was in the freebies.. figured it would go quickly

I was trying to figure out what to order in Oct because I wanted another one, when it showed up in the BoGW. That was nice, because I didn't really have the discretionary funds to make a Reaper purchase in Oct. 

I'm going to paint the two I have up as magic portals, so I can use them in scenarios to "jump" across the table, or even from table to table.

Guindyloo Box has been sorted through, goodies taken, new goodies replaced and sent to next destination!  This was a pretty good box this time; ordinarily (being a metalhead) I tend to pull metal figs--but this box had alot of printed stuff that quite frankly really sparked interest in me. I haven't had alot of experience with painting printed figs so I am looking forward to the new challenge and experience.

Anyhoo--here is a pic of my haul; for which I am very grateful and appreciative of everyone else in the box chain for giving me the chance at! I am particularly happy with the fantasy prints of the Star Wars characters--Ahsoka as a Teifling/hellborn, Kenobi with a broadsword, Vader as an Anti-paladin and Artoo as a barrel golem are going to be a hoot to paint. I also love the scenics in this box--I love dressing up the table when we play, and I even scored some really good bits and pieces to mod with. And to whoever put in the Manos Hands of Fate doorhangers--BRAVO!!!

I'm glad you liked the prints (from One Gold Piece/Westfalia for the Fantasy Wars stuff)...and the hangers!  I actually ordered them from Signal Fire to give out as gifts.

The succubus in the bag was another of my contributions from back in the day.  Yay!  Glad to see some stuff getting chosen.  must say, that's quite a nice haul there!

Oh, now that's a really cool idea!  :)

 

I ended up assembling the promo arch that was sitting on my desk waiting for an idea, and adding that to my HeroQuest set to replace the cardboard stairs token - the more I thought of it, the more I liked the idea, it works perfectly for that.

 

Now, you've got me thinking of ways to make the portal idea happen!

 

 

Wow, looks like you guys are getting some really cool stuff out of this exchange.  Great stuff, everyone, and what a great idea, to whoever thought of this exchange idea to begin with!
