Today is Boxing Day in the United Kingdom. A day where we lay around dopey and hung over (where once upon a time some bright spark came up with the idea of cutting up all left over Xmas food, sticking it in a frying pan, heating it up and serving it up as Bubble and Squak too).
It is also a great day where we play with new toys:
I got a Vindicator for my Rout, from my Mum.
Kaelo got a box of Tzaangors and Magnus the Red! Magnus will be a one off model as Kaelo really wants to paint it. The Tzaangors will be added to his Silver Tower box for more perilous adventures!
Darien Vasco got 8 Zone Mortalis tiles, taking his total up to 16, and the door bundle set to go with them!
(Getting presents from inlaws today but doubtful to be much hobby in those!)
Atia got the boxset 'Spire of Dawn' (the rat ogres will be used for Blood Bowl), some ebooks (including Garro) aswell as a box of Thousand Sons Exalted Sorcerers - these guys will make an awesome base for sergeants in 30k!
Aveinus got some Eldar for Christmas. A box of wraith guard and a box jetbikes will be the start of a new xenos army for the blog. He'll be starting with the wraith guard first as they are his favourite eldar models!
So what great bits did you get?
Drake Seta
i managed to get my grubby hands on sigismund, blood bowl and a thanatar calix so a pretty good haul!
ReplyDeleteMagnus, Vulkan and Mortarion - the wifey clearly loves me
ReplyDeleteBought myself a bunch of Deathwatch.
ReplyDeleteWife hates my hobby,so only way to get anything!
sound like a great haul!
ReplyDeleteI didn't get anything for Christmas, but was spoilt in December so can't complain.
Lol. Spoilt with a Warlord Titan. . . . Should have a new word for spoilt for that :)
DeleteI think the word is not broad castable on the blog ;)
DeleteI got 4 chaos spawn, 3 crypt horrors (to be used as chaos ogryns) Cannoness veryiaden (or whatever her name is) and the heamothrope reactors.
ReplyDeleteDidn't get anything as a present itself, but used Christmas money to treat myself to a Knight Lancer as my first large forgeworld model!
ReplyDeleteHey that's cool! Hope you enjoy putting it together. JB Weld and or pinning is the only advice I can give you.
DeleteI'm just putting a lancer together, lovely model. Just remember to plan the pose and use blutak or similar to dry fit it.
DeleteWhat colours will you paint it?
my girlfriend bought for me and a friend of mine a couple of airplane tickets in order to do our first pilgrimage from Italy to Warhammer world!!
ReplyDeleteThat's so nice :) sincerely hope you enjoy it! Going for an event or just a one off?
DeleteIt's Just a one off cause we've been trying to organize this travel for a century without success...now we have to grab this chance!!(and buy some Fw model...Maybe an alpha pattern achilles lr for my salamanders)
DeleteI got reinforcements for the Genestealer Cult, a Broodcoven, a Goliath and some Hybrids plus the BofP box for Relictor MKIII reinforcements!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff bunnies ! I got 15 Custodes and a Caladius for my future army of big golden boys, hope my Ultramarines will forgive me for cheating on them. ^^
ReplyDeleteWhile I didn't get any models this year, I got an amazing present set from my wife and best friend. My best friend gave me a amazingly done Oath of Moment pledging to cover my shifts for every open day at warhammer world and my wife an Inquisitorial Decree stating she would pay for my travel and stay for them.
ReplyDeleteThese were so amazing not only for how they were done but also because due to work I've never been able to go.
That's awesome :)
DeleteWas amazed that between dad and my wife, I got basically all of Blood Bowl, including the winter board. Just had to buy the Season book. Did pick up Prospero finally, as well, and will be placing a FW order soon. All in all an amazing weekend
ReplyDeleteI didn't get gifted much hobby, my brother got me the Corax book.
ReplyDeleteI did buy myself a few books for a historical wargame and Tormentor for this years Ironfire project (looking forward to showing Hector that Iron Warriors beat Imperial Fists!)
I managed to bag myself not only a handful of Infinity models (Combined army for those that care), but also a Thanatar and a pack of Vorax to serve as the start of a mechanicus army! Should be loads of fun, as I'll be the only mechanicus player in my entire area of players. :)
ReplyDeleteI got lots of Star Wars Lego from my fiancé. My other plastic cracking addiction, no Prospero however which I was hoping for. However I have made a decision to focus on Raven.Guard in the short term rather than my Imperial Fists as I feel I can build a more balanced and fluffy force with my limited hobby time.
ReplyDeleteCause I finished my 2500p Iron hands with a 2. Sicaran I didn't get anything from gw or fw but think I infest it for one of the dominator to build something in blanchitsu style post it on insta new_terrahands
ReplyDeleteI got the halo ground command starter set gos 10mm scales models are fiddly
ReplyDeleteThat's cool, I have that set too, and a pelican. Great little models once cleaned up. Pity the 30k addiction prevent me from spending time on them.
DeleteThe gift vouchers from the fam added up - I have an Ordinatus Ulator on the way :)
