It's like waiting for buses.


 

 Y'know, you're there for ages and then two or three turn up at once*.

So GW have decided to expand their plastic DKK line and also launch plastic warp spiders and pheonix lords at around the same time.  And there are plastic striking scorpions I havn't bought yet.  

It does make me think that I should just not ever look at the interwebs at all for anything.

Another couple of hundred quid to sit in the garage for years just at the time I'll be paying for Christmas, probably.  

I'm gonna see if I can't just 'not buy any more'.  These things fall outside of my usual rules of aquisition (ie they are not bits to finish existing projects) so they shouldn't be bought.  

And no-one needs a Valdor with Leman Russ tracks conversion, do they ? Not that I've been thinking about that for twenty years.


 *for context, for those who have genuinely never see this, it happens in London when the traffic patterns are distrupted (by traffic light failures, roadworks, other distruptive vehicles and/or deliveries on bus routes).  The buses cannot pull out for whatever reason until someone lets them out, and sometimes this is the next bus.  So you end up with a little packet of two to four buses all arriving at the same time.

  1. Some projects just need to get done... that is part of how the universe works. But it is frustrating when new versions of the models arrive before the old ones are done.

  2. All These new kits look very appealing, but we haven't seen their price points yet. I suspect those will knock a bit of the shine off.
