Worthless Bums... so actually i can make this more realistically proportioned
just fucking myself
a circle of fucking myself xD
rip their premium plastic has an extended delay
i'll sleep on it xD
So much effort for worse results lolololol
Too lazy to strip the paint and make it not shit
i'll prolly wake up mad and work on them some more
when you see an extremely horny fallout miniature but you want it just for the mini nuke model
they also have a bunch of power armor helmet kitbashes for sale
fallout x 40k confirmed
trying very hard not to search specifically for elder scrolls minis (yet) because i know once i do imma get flooded with fantasy suggestions xD
it's so creepy looking at sprues with just rows of heads lol
like if you walk into a serial killer's home and there are just dolls everywhere
"Friendly Space Cadet that happens to be armed"
kingdom death is the horniest gore horror mini game i've seen yet
alright it's an open question if my fo characters could take 40k heavy hitters, but i think i could moderately easily take sigmar universe xD
"I HAVE A GIANT AXE"
me: *doesn't even look up from my pip-pad, pulls out pistol and vaporizes him*
the rectangular bases of some of the minis do not spark joy tho
know what was a good game
arcanum
BRUH I LIKE SCI-FI MORE THAN FANTASY BUT WHY ARE THESE SO MUCH BETTER POSED AND COLORED OVERALL
still don't like the square bases tho
ALTHO
in formation. maybe. MAYBE. i could see the chocolate bars working
also i've seen zero spiders
this is good. verrrrry goooood
someone was saying something looked like stargate the other day
no, this is stargate lololol
kinda don't wanna post the great unclean one but
it sure is a mini
ah fuck
spiders
sometimes gw selects strange angles to preview their figures with
their 360 drag to spin is also kinda finicky
i forgot: i also have energy shields
do space marines have energy shields? no xD
i have discovered joytoy
it is not what it sounds like
i should figure out how i wanna display the minis
so i can cap the number of minis
i have a buncha shit on a shelf i need to go through and throw out
like literally old school notes and crap from grade school i think lol
THROW THAT AWAY. ORGANIZE MY SHELVES ON THE BOTTOM OF THAT SHELF
that should be a fair amount of room
i have a bunch of accessory shit from like... three desktops ago lol
BIN IT
alright cleared one shelf
moderate success
i just spent like 10 minutes why this one seller scaled some minis differently before realizing the hqs were bigger
derp. of course
mmmm sad
apparently going forward not (all) the fallout warfare minis will come with cool greebly bases
plain bases, noooooo. need to get glue and fake grass and sand xD
stores having clearance sales on digital downloads
wait. this is games workshop made to order minis and... i am 100% this is the really old shit?
did they literally just shuffle out decades old minis for this?
it is definitely cool they are servicing all the nostalgia
i didn't see any old dwarves in quilt armor tho lololol
i might have been wrong about that jungle fighter being made to order
games workshop's website and community page is extraordinarily newbie hostile
if you literally search "made to order" on the warhammer community site you get three relatively recent posts, none of which contain that phrase
there was a community post about made to order post like 3 weeks ago, but google doesn't find it either
i literally went to the subreddit and searched there
is there a category on the games workshop site? no
is there a filter? no
do they explain ANY of this information to you? no
the best part is whenever people ask questions about this on the sub (you know, because no one fucking tells them), they usually get downvoted, and no one tells them anything
amazing system
my minis are in seattle
not sure if they'll make it to me today. possibly monday
it's weak that the rainbow warriors only have a thin rainbow down their helmets
every time someone says that's not consistent with <entire generic spanning stereotype lore> i just remember iom has whole planets as rounding errors
i think i talked myself down from the vault modular pieces for now
still reallllly want them
but i should focus on minis and paint to get better
Kale @DarkestKale i have a package coming from germany that's been on a merry-go-round with customs for a few weeks now
it'll get here when it gets here
or not, and they'll lie and send it back to the sender lololololol 🙃
@worthlessbums So, here's a trick.
I looked on the GW site for Catachans, ended up on the Polish site: in stock, ready to deliver
Swapped to the Aus site: 'temporarily out of stock online'
If you google, the result preview includes the phrase 'special order item', but the phrase 'special order' isn't anywhere on the page
@DarkestKale is the trick don't give games workshop any money
@worthlessbums I mean, I haven't given them shit directly for... ever?
@worthlessbums 'Special Order' prob. means 'made to order', in this context - 'we have to make it for you, so it'll take a bit of time'
@worthlessbums I am shocked that GW would be newbie hostile.
@worthlessbums Rambo expy, most likely
@worthlessbums Actually, it might be a Guile from Streetfighter reference.
@DarkestKale See alt text it's Sly Marbo.
@worthlessbums Sylvester Stalone and Marlon Brando ref. then
@DarkestKale prolly arnold
@worthlessbums 'why not all of them?'
@DarkestKale well i'm pretty sure it's a copy of dutch from predator
face, the cigar, jungle fighter, etc
@worthlessbums Yar. The name, tho, that's Sylvester ('Sly') Stallone and Marlon Brando
Stallone played Rambo, and Brando was in Apocalypse Now
@worthlessbums Lol, that's old (90s) Catachan Jungle Fighters
@DarkestKale you can literally order them (for now) on gw's site xD

@worthlessbums 'Made to Order' is like 'Print to Order'.
They've converted the old minis to STL files so they can resin print them, would be my guess.
@worthlessbums If you're talking modiphius?
It's cause they lost the rights to Conan.
It actually IS a clearance sale, cause they can't sell it after X date.
@DarkestKale oh yeah it was
rip
@worthlessbums The Conan rights holders are fucking ruthless, apparently.
The Conan CCG got cancelled by them, etc
@DarkestKale sucks. i need modiphius to have that money to make more fallout minis!!
@worthlessbums Welcome to the tabletop industry.
It's all intensely precarious as fuck.
