Not much to report. I did win the 1988 Rogue Trader adventurer figure I bid on.
As far as the picture goes he doesn't look like he's in too bad a shape. I'll strip him and paint him up to be Qui-gon Hercule Marple. We'll then try to design a scenario to play Rogue Trader with the Sci-Fi figures I paint up.
The price was ok, the shipping made it less of a bargain but what can you do?
The Pre game show for Superbowl 50 is about to come on. I'm going to clean miniatures while I watch the game.
Well, if you want it then you need to pay the postage :-) ! He looks like quite a nice figure, though very much in need of a repaint.
ReplyDeleteHi Hugh, yes it's just a bit daunting when the postage is more than the cost of the figure. He's got a perfectly fine old school paint job, but the wear and the fact that I want to make different color choices necessitate a strip.
DeleteReminds me of Adam from Mythbusters!
ReplyDeleteHi Fran, yeah I think I see that.
DeleteCool! Shall be grand when done! I think if you want it enough then you have just got to take the pain sometime of P&P
ReplyDeleteThanks Simon, yeah the price wasn't to bad overall. I ended up paying £9 so a tad high for a single figure, but I didn't see scads of them around and the feelers I put out amongst my sources didn't have them beating down my door.
