I'll go through all my minis this weekend. I didn't notice any duplicates.

You should have two candelabras and no victim for the altar, btw. That was change at some point.

On a side note, should I move on from trading for Kaly? I am thinking of placing a preorder somewhere if that is the case.

I figure I'll go through mine otnight. I found one mini fig that was tossed in the overall shipment and I have no idea what it is. It looks like a female wizard with a staff but I can't find it on the vampire pledge.

EDIT: Turns out it was Hyrekia, Dragonthrall Mage

I'd go ahead and do that preorder, I decided to keep Kaly. He's the first thing everyone talked about when they saw him. Definitely worth the price to buy him just as a conversation piece.

Taggart, I had two figs tossed in, that Wizard Lady and Mr. Bones.

[taggart6]

Mr. Bones was apart of the Vampire Kickstarter but I can't find any mention of Hyrekia on the kickstarter. Maybe she got thrown in as an added thanks you?


EDIT: Ahh okay...shes Kaladrax's assistant and is included with his model. Okay that makes more sense.

[SewerUrchin]

No problem. I completely understand. I figure that he is likely worth the ~$55 that he is going for in preorders on some sites. If I also get the ~$25 Nethyrmaul, then I get free shipping. Just don't tell my wife

As for Hyrekia, she indeed comes with Kaldarax in the Kickstarter (but they are sold separate after) and the Mr. Bones guy was a freebie for anyone that pledged.

Nice! I wish I had gotten Forces of Nature.


Do you all glues your models together? If so, what glue should I use? I have some super glue but I don;t know if I should use modeling glue.

[SewerUrchin]

Just pick up Forces of Nature when it hits their store. It is only $7 each ($14 total for what was $15 on the Kickstarter). It is the only thing that is going to be cheaper. Also, Reaper likes to throw freebie sample paints in their orders one occasion. With that being said, for big orders, I plan to use Miniature Giant. The free shipping point is $75 (instead of $25 that Reaper has), but their prices are cheaper. I placed my preorders for Nethy and Kaldarax there. I just couldn't be without them.

Super glue is fine. Depending on the part you might want to paint and then glue and then do any touch-ups needed. It is often easier to get into hard to reach spots that way. Use the Reaper forums for help. They are great people and very helpful/knowledgeable.

[Timman_24]

There are two types that most people use. There is Plastic Cement and there are "super glue" types. Plastic Cement melts the parts together through a chemical reaction. The downside is that it can harm the mini if it isn't applied exactly in the right spot. Super Glue is a weaker bond, but dries faster and is usually plenty for the minis. I use the Super Glue gel because it is very easy to get it in the right spot and it doesn't flow out which can create a mess. Its great for tiny pieces.

I'm jealous of your list there SewerUrchin. Tons of minis!

I'm going to go through the minis tonight to make sure I got everything. We can talk about a Skype session when you get your order in Sewer.

[SewerUrchin]

My Zombicide extras FINALLY arrived. After all that, my shirt came as an XL and I need an L. I have spent literally months hassling with them. It has been ridiculous. I am tempted to just give up on it and settle with the XL. Here is a quick pic:

I am painting now in anticipation of my order. I have plenty to paint (I have ~25-30 of the currently offered BONES sitting unpainted on my desk - among other things).

[Timman_24]

Sewer, do you play these games a lot with your family and friends or do you collect them as a hobby or both? I tend to collect these things more than play with them haha. Maybe we can Skype this weekend. I'll probably start painting tomorrow or so.

[SewerUrchin]

I try to play as often as I can which typically equates to having friends over 2-3 times a month. Lately, this is less because I had a son on the 4th of this month.

I have become kind of a collector too, though. It is kind of a side effect and really ends up as a vicious cycle (more games to play with friends, more friends over to play said games).

I finished up my rat from the LTPK#1: http://www.reapermini.com/forum/inde...25#entry734522

This goes with my other mini from LTPK#1 that I finished last month: http://www.reapermini.com/forum/inde...23#entry721919

Also, my daughter painted a few rats tonight: http://www.reapermini.com/forum/inde...-3#entry734531

[SewerUrchin]

I gloss/dullcoted both of them and posted a thread here: http://www.reapermini.com/forum/inde...iew=getnewpost
