Would need a more sophisticated printer than mine if you wanted actual words. I did see a bunch of folk playing yesterday at the club so I ordered my copy, printed off some 'not Space Marines' last night, zenithal primed and slapped contrast paints on over lunchtime. The Emperor's Drones just need some detailing and I'm good to go...

That's interesting, quite close to the scale I work in.
Then I saw the price !

On a related theme, If anyone does want a "mini-me" then these guys may be worth considering.https://www.modelu3d.co.uk/?fbclid=IwAR ... wTWQ0wO7iU That army of VBs is one step nearer!

A local wargamer decided to clear out his storage & resell it through the local military hobby shop (where he bought it in the first place). So far he's brought in 3 large boxes of mint & mostly long OOP Battlefront models, some dating back to the precursor company (Military Models of New Zealand), along with lots of old GW and other fantasy stuff.

Andrew, the shop's owner, is kindly selling them for the original retail price. I've just picked up enough Italian guns, armour and transport to fill out my WWII Italian East Africa project for around half the current equivalent RRP, even if the models were available. A good result & hopefully more to come at the weekend. :moredrink:
