probably nobody cares, but...

Sweet babby jeezus! I put in a speculative-you-never-know-what-the-hell bid on this mini

http://www.ebay.com/itm/120896567262?ss ... 1439.l2649

and...

I won! I totally freaking just got a Dirz Nefarious Clone, NIB, with cards n all dat stuff for 20quid! These things usually go for nearer a hundred, and Ive seen em go for more. I was the only bidder, too! I've checked and re-checked, and there seems to be nowt wrong with the seller and the item. Obviously the proof of the pudding will be in the arrival of the mini, but damn dude! MiJ is a happy camper today :D

(example of better-than-I-could-ever-do-version below, just to demonstrate why I'm excited to own this fricking kick ass model...)

That reminds me ... what did I do with mine ...

Ah, right where I left it. :) I've got a couple of limited edition and otherwise unwanted Confontation minis, if you want - Dirz, Wolfen, Cynwäll and Griffin.

10? 9, probably. The base is a little busy and contrasts with the pillar he's percehd on, and the weapon blades are oddly shiny.

unwanted? oh the poor wee souls. Consider their status changed to: wanted :D by me, if it please ye, squire. I'm coming back in the summer (july 24th to aug 20th, to be precise) so if youre around, thatd be lovely and marvellous. Beer will be happily bought, and if you want money n stuff we can work it out, im sure. Also, if you want anything Japanese brought over, lemme know. :D

*edit* I aint fussy, not at all, but out of curiosity, whacha got?

I agree about the base/pillar contrast, but I reckon it's not enough to knock it down from a 10. As for shiny blades, it's rackham - realism can go hang. Shiny is where it's at :D

The base is only a small niggle, but then 10/10 is perfect. It ain't quite perfect, so it doesn't get 10 from me. :) Also, the nermerner on the blades doesn't really match well with the rest of the miniature.

I've got a few limited editions:
Varghar, Syd de Kaïber and Kyrus le Sombre:

a set of Cynwäll Khidarÿms:

and whichever assorted Dirz and Wolfen I have left that don't come with stat cards for Hybrid.
