So where where are you situated mate?
Actually in in the. UK.
Oxford. Oxford.
Oxford, right? So in the South, just a bit
above, right? OK, because I was just taught
what I had. I don't know if, you know, we do
those splatter natters on the live stream on the channel.
And Johnny Watson, he's also in Oxford.
Oh, is he? Well, he lives very close to
Oxford and he's looking for people to, to game with.
And I, I got him and AD Wood, you know, like from White Dwarf
fame. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm a ready 1 here. Yeah, he's going to go down and
have a game with him. So if, if if you're looking for
people to play with, then yeah. Definitely.
That's always I mean. Cool, yeah.
And the other I played a game of 5th edition 6000 points of a few
old friend, well an old friend from school recently as well.
But other than that I only played my brother really so it
would be good to play as some of the people.
I watched the advanced hero quest video.
I loved Owen's narration, was great throughout the whole
thing. Yeah, it was awesome, wasn't it?
Yeah, No, he he did an absolute brilliant job.
And I've just sent the I sent the second one yesterday.
I finished during the editing. So he's going to work on that
the weekend and send it back to me, which we brilliant.
Now. I'll finish off editing the
video and upload it next week. So about Wednesday, I'd say.
So, yeah, looking forward to doing that.
And then yeah. And then starting on the next,
the next quest will probably take a bit of bit of time to get
that all sorted. But I I've just acquired the
last piece, the last model that troll, that troll I was talking
about. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The moral one or. Yeah, that one, I got it from
the States through my sponsor. He got it through some guy in
the on the, on eBay there. We made it.
We made a deal with him. He wanted, I think he wanted 440
U.S. dollars and I think we did it for 30.
So that wasn't too bad, you know.
Yeah, still, I guess the Prostage is just the killer.
I'm guessing for no, for for Japan.
Yeah, but he's, he'll send it to Scott and then Scott forwards it
on to me with other stuff. See, that's my connection mate.
Good old Scott from I checked. Out your sponsor's website.
Actually, we got some pretty good stuff.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's got some good stuff on
there. He's got like just boxes and
box. Probably you got the same, let's
say Richard, but just boxes and boxes, boxes for that.
He just hasn't got around to ever getting photographed and
catalogued and put on the on the site.
So, yeah. So, yeah, I mean, the only, the
only reason I found out about you and your site was through
Scott at Black Arrow. So thanks to him, I discovered
your site. Yeah, because I was looking for,
for advanced request, I was looking for like human fighters,
like adventurers and that kind of thing, like the old Citadel
fighter Rangers or Marauder miniatures or something like
that. And he said, and I asked, of
course, I first asked Scott and I said, you know, do you have
any of these in your, in your boxes or whatever?
He said, I don't think so, but you can always try Demon's Lair.
I never heard of it. So he sent me a link and I
checked it out and I thought, oh, OK, he's got some, he's got
some nice stuff in there. So I was checking through your
site as well. And then I looked at some of the
Scaven and as I was doing, as I'm now almost about the start
of Commission for a friend of mine, a patron of mine in the
States for a big Scaven army. I saw you had some plastic
monopole Scaven with Shields and everything, bases and Shields.
I mean, it's unthinkable. And that for a very good price.
So I thought, OK, I'm going to grab a couple of those and, and
then it all went from there. So I, I don't, I don't feel bad
about shopping elsewhere outside of my, my sponsors online web
store. But it is a bit bit Scott was
like, Oh yeah, he's got some great stuff.
I'm going to order some stuff as well.
So you might have got an order from Scott also picking, picking
some up things up. And yeah, that's great.
It's, you know, it's all networked together.
There are things in America which you can get easier, and
then there are things over there that you can't get easier, I
think because of the history of GWI Guess.
Yeah, I think you're right, mate.
Yeah, absolutely. He was talking about the other
day, I was talking to somebody we talked about, that's right.
There's another, another gentleman in the US and we're
just talking about a Commission I was going to do for him and he
we talked about that. Like I said, I don't think he
knew that that the US produced they had, they actually had
their own foundry in Baltimore and they would produce a lot of
better miniatures there. I didn't know that I ever
actually. I was always assuming they're
sending the UK over there back in the 80s.
But yeah, makes a lot more sense, right?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're producing miniatures there.
I mean, someone could probably quote me to say I'm wrong, but
I'm pretty damn sure they were because a lot of the, a lot of
the product that we got in the in the 90s in Australia was from
the US. And it was all in that white
tin. And like really struck like
highly high density sort of 10 metals that you'd get at that
time. And apparently it was all out of
the US. That's where they got all their
stuff from. That's quite interesting.
So they're using a different metal than the UK were at the
time. Yeah, that because of the laws
there, they had to use stuff without any lead in it at all.
So they had like this white metal what they called in at
that stage. And I think the UK sort of
followed suit, I think not. So not so long after that, yeah.
I think in the mid 90s we granted the proper white metal,
didn't we? But then maybe beforehand we cut
out the ladder bit. Yep, that's right.
Yeah. So, yeah, some some interesting
bit of history there for America and their involvement with
production of Siddell Miniatures.
But mate, yeah, I asked you one Richard, to see, you know, how
you actually got into this wonderful.
Well, a hobby of ours. How was that?
How did all that all start? So originally, I guess it was
1993, we had a Games Workshop in Oxford which I would walk past
all the time. My mum would let me in and then
she had my brother in once without me and he came home with
a box of the plastic monopose orcs and I got so upset because
I wasn't allowed to go in, you know, because I didn't, I wasn't
there when they finally went in. She took us a few days later and
then my first set was the Rogue Trader plastic box, which kind
of just set us off completely. Then we would go there every few
weeks, spend our pocket money because back then they had like
1 LB blisters where they would have sales and they'd get rid of
the old stock and things. So we just get whatever kind of
whatever was cheapest skeletons or old Imperial Guard from the
80s, that kind of thing. So yeah, so it was about 1993
and then we got Warhammer Fantasy Battle 4th Edition for
Christmas. But yeah, and that kind of
really got us into playing it. And then Blood Bowl as well.
And we'd, we used to do karate and we used to bring like a
massive suitcase of all that Blood Bowl teams and Blood Bowl
to all that karate grading because we'd be there for the
whole day and we'd just play Blood Bowl when we weren't
actually doing anything we were obsessed with.
And then Necromonda came out and we absolutely loved Necromonda.
And that's that game, even during like everyone has a dark
period where they don't play anything really normally.
I think, you know, there's a bit when they become a late teenager
or in their 20s when they kind of get out of the hobby a bit.
But Necromonda was always the game that kind of brought us
back into playing because me and my brother, basically we had the
same kind of thing. We we played at the same time.
So yeah, so it was mostly throughout the 90s.
And then there's a little gap for a few years at uni and then
we came back and played more again.
Never interested in the modern editions though, to be honest.
With Fantasy Battle we played quite a bit of six and then we
just made our own version, combining lots of different
things, but with the old models, which were always our favourites
to be honest. Metal was always the best, I
think. Yeah, and now still playing a
lot. Mostly the old world though, but
using like 80s and 90s models because it's quite hard to find
anyone to play for pip edition with obviously and Rogue trader
40K I'd like to play at some point because it's been about 25
years. Or. 20, you know, 28 years maybe
since I've played and I've been collecting a classic metal orc
army for the past few years, trying to get every model in the
range. So hopefully at some point I can
actually get a gamer van. But yeah.
And then we play things like Frost Grave and stuff like that
as well on the side. An advice here, request my non
gaming friends, they've endured quite a bit.
Excellent. Wonderful mate.
Yeah, that's great. You've got advanced here
requests back on the table. And I take it the adventurers,
like you say, non gamers, they're just sort of, but it's,
it's a great way to sort of get people into playing something
with you, isn't it? It's a great gateway game, I
think, and and they really enjoyed it as well because you
can have a laugh with with advanced hero request right
it's. Yeah, yeah, Henry Hyde is
another guy from Battle Chat and Henry Hyde, he he also played
Advanced Hero Quest back in the day and he still loves it.
And he he get when he has like a dinner party, his guess will
he'll he'll bring out advance your request to get them to play
it at the dinner party. I think that's a really great
idea. Yeah.
I don't know if my wife would be too too keen on doing that
without our guests somehow. But yeah, maybe maybe for some
some people and some mixers. Yeah, it it it would work.
Well, yeah, it depends. Yeah, I, I you know, I mean and
maybe that you know, if advance your request is too much to try
normal your request, which is way too easy, but yeah.
Yeah, nice. Yeah, no, they, they had a great
time with it and they, you know, I think it's a game where you
can just make up a story and if you've got a good DM or is it
AGM in if I ask you a question or Adm I figure.
Is it? Fancy master or game master?
DM because of the DM counters. Yeah, I think DM yeah.
Been the dungeon, yeah. So yeah, yeah.
It's, it's, it's been a great game that I've really enjoyed
playing now through Discord. So because I don't have like,
you know, I don't have the luxury of having people over the
play. It's really difficult.
So Discord has allowed us to reach many other people and then
have them come in at like I've got a host of American, mainly
American people that play with us because of the time zones,
because they work really well with Japan.
And I found a great, great bunch of guys who who really enjoy
playing it so that they wouldn't also have the chance to play it.
So we do here requests and advance here requests through
Discord, which works really well.
Board games work perfectly well for that, even to the extent of
playing Blood Bowl. We played Blood Bowl as well.
I did that the same thing during the the pandemic actually with
my brother. Yeah, yeah.
Nice. Yeah.
Great. Yeah.
What what teams do you like to play in Blood Ball?
My favorite because I played an online blood ball game called
Fumble which existed for a long time.
I think it's still there and I always played undead there.
So undead have become my favorite over the years.
But when I was a kid I used to like the dark elves a lot as
well. Although now I I really don't
like elves very much at all. So definitely undead will be my
favorite. I don't win many games, but
that's not the point. It's, it's more, you know, just
try to try to win and enjoy it as everything goes wrong as
you're trying. Yeah, don't roll that one
basically. And your your brother, what kind
of teams does he sort of favour? He is a big fan of chaos stuff.
He loves beast men, so yeah. So beast like a Chaos, Chaos
Stars would be his favorite, I think at the moment.
Or the Chaos Dwarf team, whose name I cannot pronounce.
The Ziggurats. That's really some great models
on that. Yeah.
And he collects like he's got thousands of rounds of Chaos
models for Warhammer Fantasy and things as well.
So he's all about the Chaos. Nice mate, actually talk about
Blood Bowl. I got a delivery in from my good
mate James in the states for a painting Commission on the On
the Dark Ill team, so I look forward to painting those.
I've never painted the Dark Ills Blood Bowl, but I actually quite
like that team. I'm not an elf guy myself, but
actually that that team's pretty funky looking.
I think the the witch elves with all the I think, I think the
paint the studio painter. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Cool posing, you know, punching the air.
But yeah, they look quite cool. I look forward to doing those,
actually. Yeah.
Excellent. So you, you talked about playing
also fantasy and you are now playing Old World, is that
right? The Old World games locally.
Yeah, with my brother again, but he plays like in local
tournaments and a local games club which I need to join at
some point. But yeah, I I have like skate a
big scaping army, a big empire army and and dead army as well.
And then we have like orcs and goblins shared between us some
if you have a thing shared between us.
So we kind of cover, we can cover every army in in the game
pretty much apart from high elves, wood elves and Dark elves
because I don't like elves so. Yeah, you're not alone there,
Richard, don't worry. But are there many arguments
with the brother when you play games or you're pretty?
Not anymore. If you not anymore OK.
Yeah, we've got a policy. No, no arguing when we're
playing games. All right, OK.
Not taking it too seriously. At one point a few years ago
maybe we took it a bit too seriously and then we realised
how stupid that was. So no arguments anymore,
luckily. Yeah, that's and I got.
Into losing as well, so you know I do not remember.
Is it, is it, is it the dice more than the tactics or do you
think it's a bit of both? I'd say it's both.
It's both, definitely, yeah. I mean, my diet rolls are
atrocious. If you can, every time, like
comes to rolling for my artillery, you can guarantee one
of them is going to roll a wide every turn.
Basically, I'm not right when I'm misfire, so I misfire every
turn and then they'll blow up afterwards probably.
But tactically I'm not. I'm not very much.
I like to play just to have fun, so I don't try to think about
how to smash my opponent really easily.
And I think that's my mistake. I kind of, you know, I hold
things back or I kind of just charge in too early depending on
what's going on. I can relate to that.
Yeah, I think I do the same. I think that's why I always
tended to go with Orkin goblins as a, as a default, really,
because it's just surge forward. And but yeah, I, I, I've enjoyed
playing with the guys here because you get to see, you
know, different ways of playing or different ways of thinking
about playing, especially why I'm a fantasy.
So that's been interesting. Now you did, you did mention a
few classic specialist games like Necromander and Blood Bowl.
Did you, Did you, you and your brother ever get to play Man O
War at all? Actually haven't played it but
I've recently got a copy of my friend in France as well.
Beyond he sent me the expansions as well.
So I've got a copy of Man of War and Plague Fleet and I forget
what the other one see of blood. See of blood.
And a couple of fleets as well, like an Empire fleet and a Chaos
fleet. So I really want to play at some
point, especially since the first White Dwarf I ever had was
the one with the plague fleet on.
And I remember opening it up and looking through all the cool
pictures and seeing, you know, all the awesome Man of War
stuff. But yeah, I'm hoping to play it
this year actually. Oh, great, mate.
We'll have to. We'll have to cover that White
dwarf with you at some point in the future.
For my first White Dwarf, I'd love that series doing that on
the on the channel. Yeah, I love listening to seeing
all the odd magazine environment when I was a kid.
Yeah, mate, which would definitely do that because I
love that cover, that Mark Gibbons colour Plague Fleet
cover. That's awesome.
All right, well that definitely book that in at some point.
So that's cool. Yeah, I think you, I think you
guys would absolutely love Man O War, so you should definitely
try it with a brother or with another friend locally.
It'd be great, mate. Yeah.
At some point you must have come up with the idea of starting
your own web store and and collecting and selling
miniatures. How did this all come about?
So I used to be a teacher and then I was in a car crash so I
got a slight head injury so I can't teach anymore.
So I was looking for things to do instead and gaming is always
one of my hobbies so I do tutoring on the side.
But then I thought, you know, I'm always buying models, like
load, like I buy massive lots just so you can get things
cheaper. I give some to my brother, then
I keep some to myself and there's always loads left over.
So I was selling on the Facebook groups, the old hammer groups
for quite a long time just to cover what I was spending.
And then I thought actually I could turn this into a business.
It would be a really good idea. I'm rubbish with technology.
So making a website I, I, I started like, I realised that
eBay was very, I don't really like eBay very much when it
comes to selling stuff. I would rather be in charge of
things myself. So I I used Shopify which is
actually quite easy to use even for someone who is absolutely
rubbish with computers. It is the reason why the website
is not the best designed website in the world for finding things.
I've been told it's like going into Aladdin's cave, which I
think it's a good thing and a bad thing at the same time, but.
Yeah. Yeah, so it was about a year ago
I I was going on the Facebook groups laying out a grid and
putting models on the grid and taking photos of a grid every
time. But that is a real ball.
Like after doing it time after time and having to like keep
putting them on a grid every time.
That's right. So yeah, I thought, you know
what, I can try and turn this into a business.
So yeah, it's been up for about a year and a month, a year and
two months now which. Goodbye.
I've sent over 1000 packages now so I'm pretty happy with that.
Wow, that's amazing. Yeah, that's awesome, man.
I think I was just looking through your website the other
day and I, I didn't find it too bad to actually find things
personally. I mean, you've got a search
function here and I just put in ogre or troll and it just pops
up every single listing you have with those keywords in it.
So I found that quite useful. And you've already, you've
already put them. You've already, you know, put
them into different categories. And with a photo and a listing
title there. So I don't think it's that bad
to find things personally. I you know, that's what I
thought anyway. Interesting.
You look like a sealed and unopened section as well, which
looks really cool. I love the yeah, Macdeth.
And there's another supplement here, I think for first or
second edition. I'm a fantasy which I thought
was quite cool. Yeah, yeah.
So I've got the Macduff on there and what's the?
The gothic floor plan I have. Done.
Yeah, Yeah, I had, I had Terror of the Lich Master, but that
sold straight away, which probably wanted to keep it
because it's gorgeous, you know, and it has all these lovely car
buildings that you could use in battles and things.
But I won an auction at an auction house and it costs a lot
of money for those ones, so I kind of had to sell them.
But one day I'd like my own coffee.
Definitely would be cool. Nice mate, and you've also got a
greater demon to zinch in an unopened blister which is
missing head. They had four unopened blisters,
all missing their heads. Dad said yeah, yeah.
Wow, that's interesting. Yeah, yeah, obviously someone
had just been had a had a rough night at the pub before or
something or whatever the day before and just, yeah, just
forgot to put the heads in. But yeah, no, it's it's a great
looking store. I think it's cool.
I mean, I'm really glad to have found it and that's probably why
I hadn't heard of it because it hasn't been around for that
long. So but it's got a good level of
stuff in there. I found some real classic things
in the Empire stuff. I was looking for the Empire
characters that I was looking for.
Advance here request And you've got some real gems in there,
really old ones as well, like this ANDADND female thief, which
looks wonderful, and some peasants, some villager guys.
I really like those a lot. In fact, I think I might
actually have one of those in one of my bins there.
But yeah, really, really nice. Some wonderful old hammer
collections in there which I think people should at least
have a look at. Even some of the plastic hero
quest models like the Wizard and and that kind of thing.
And I think you've got some advance here, request models on
here in this collection too. So there should be something
there to cater for everybody for every taste and every era.
You said you had you've you've sold quite a lot of packages.
So it sounds like the business is going well then mate.
Yeah, I think so. So it went from January last
year selling about 10 packages maybe.
And then now some, some days I sell about 5 or 6 packages or I
went away for five days and sold 21 packages, which is pretty
good. It's definitely viable as a
business, I would say. But the big trouble is obviously
trying to get things because I don't like to, to pay people not
a lot of money. So but I also try to keep my
costs down as well. So I thought my, my, my price is
down. So it's kind of squeezes the
profit in the middle a little bit, but I think if you have
enough good stuff and you sell enough, then it kind of makes up
for it. We all know about the ebayers
who charge insane prices for, you know, for stuff.
And I don't really want to be like that because as a hobbyist
myself, I kind of like the idea of people being able to get
things that are a price that is at least fair for everyone
involved. Yeah, absolutely.
But yeah, it's hard getting harder to find things at a
decent price that I can then resell without asking for a
crazy price, which I wouldn't do.
So yeah, that's the only issue. I think it's the sort of
longitivity of kind of being able to find stuff at a good
price. Yes, absolutely.
Yeah. No, I like I said, I was really,
really happy with the the plastic scaben I got.
They were just perfect for what I needed for, for David for his
Commission. And then he's very, very happy
to get some authentic 4th and 5th edition Monopo's scaben
models and priced very, very well.
I was really surprised how how how competitively priced they
were. So I snatched them up and now,
thanks to any thanks to me, Japan is now opposed to its
location for people in Japan to get them.
Yeah. So because I had to, I had to
e-mail you say, hey, mate, look, I couldn't find Japan as one of
the areas that you post to. So that's all fixed now.
And of course, people can always e-mail you and contact you if
they needed to, if they couldn't find something or whatever, or
in my case, couldn't post to some somewhere.
And yeah, you can always contact them to arrange that.
So that's really cool. Now, are there any other
collections that you haven't posted up yet to the store that
you want to in the future? So I've got a big collection of
C47 Scaven coming up, like 60 models that or do you mean that
that I'm sitting on or that I would like to expand into in the
future? Do you mean?
For like well go go with the Scaven.
I'm I'm liking the sound of that so far.
So it's pretty honest. Got everyone one of every model
in there, almost a few double s. But there's Nordoom and both rat
Ogres and Frot the Unclean and lots of clan rats and slaves.
The little chap with the poet, the copy of Nordoom sculpt with
a, you know, poisoned wind glove glove deer.
And yeah, so about 60 Scaven to put up over the next few days.
It's really cool escaping them. I feel that's my favorite range.
So it's always nice to have them on the site.
Sometimes I buy things just because I want them on the site,
even if I don't know if I'm going to make any money, just
because it's nice to have them. And I've got a massive
collection of pre slaughter stuff from the 80s, four hundred
models that are going to go up and some cool rogue trailer
space screens coming up next week as well.
Yeah, there's loads of other stuff that I, that I kind of, I,
I tend to sit on the more modern stuff for a longer time because
it doesn't interest me much myself.
But whenever I, I buy whole car loads from one person who, who's
been a collector for 40 years and he's kind of winding down
now that he's older and he still collects things now.
So when I get to see him, I get whole car loads of like new
stuff and old stuff, and I just take whatever he's got
basically. So I've got lots of new stuff to
put up. Yeah, that'll take a long time
to go up because it's a bit boring.
So yeah, so just escaping and lots of free slaughter and the
Space Marines. I think at the moment we have an
actual auction House of some nice collections of like 90s and
early 2000s Dogs of War and kind of Empire stuff, which I'm
hoping to win because that'll be cool.
Right. OK, so there's there's an actual
auction house selling this stuff.
Yeah, yeah. So there's quite a few in in
England and they, they do have online auctions.
You can go there in person as well.
Less people know about them, but they do charge you like extra
premiums for their service. And then I got a package through
which had like the a Goblover and like Iron Claw or Goblin War
Machine and things where they charged £30 for packaging.
Wow. They just shoved all in a bag,
shoved all the metal models in a bag, wrap the bag in bubble
wrap, put it in a box. A shoe box for 30 lbs which is a
very. Nice.
Yeah, sort of bad shipping service mate.
You should start doing that yourself.
I think I. Reckon I get maybe returning
customers just about 100 models in a bag and then you know.
Shoe box shipping 30 lbs. Thank you very much.
Yeah, I was. I was disappointed definitely.
Nothing broke though. Oh, that's good.
Yeah, that that'll be the the thing.
Hopefully, hopefully that 30 lbs includes insurance for when they
send things. So that's that's cool.
So you've got some nice caving coming up and you've got some,
the old sort of I, I've noticed on your website too, you have a
lot of those pre slaughter miniatures on there, which, you
know, I've never really looked at.
You know, they were given a second look at those miniatures.
But I found, I found someone online who painted, who paints
these in whales actually and absolutely does a beautiful job
on them. They're incredible.
He makes those miniatures look $1,000,000.
I forget what the guy's name is now.
I bought the same thing for years I thought they looked like
they were just not as good quality.
And then I started having a gut painting some of them, and I
mean some of them are definitely ropey quality, but some of them
actually they look amazing when they're painted up and they kind
of they fit in really well still.
So all depends on the model I think, and the painter
obviously. Absolutely.
I think he's pretty well known, yeah, but I just can't recall
his name, sorry. I'll have to do a bit of a
showcase on his miniatures or get him on the podcast or
something, or do some like a video interview looking at his
miniatures because yeah, they're absolutely stunning.
I just saw someone ask about it on the whole Oldhammer Facebook
group as to like who this person was and someone noted in the
comment that this is his Facebook page.
And I was like, wow, this is just stunning.
You know, like the amount of the beautiful work he does on those
miniatures is incredible. And it just made me think
actually, you know, those pre slaughter miniatures, they did
have a certain quality about them and charm to them.
That's but but it's just not my time.
It's not my time period, you know what I mean?
Apart from you know, Heroes for War games I think had a lot of
those pre slaughter miniatures. And some of them crossed over to
the slot today. They re changed the base, didn't
they? And they actually turned them
into slotter versions for some, yeah.
It all depends on the range I think when it comes to that.
But they're definitely cheaper as well.
So that always helps for collecting I think.
Yeah, the the price of about, well, in yen about ¥700.
So that's about what's that about 4 lbs, maybe 3 lbs.
Yeah, something like that. Yeah, 3 to 4 lbs.
Normally a lot of them go for I think apart from the rare ones,
and then they give quite a bit. Yeah, and and you also sell
books and I I notice you have the walks EB go hardback book
that's going for a pretty penny. And yeah.
I got my own pocket from a car boot, so when I was a kid that's
knackered, but you know, I loved reading it very much.
You've got some white dwarf magazines to price really well.
I mean, I don't know why I didn't order these before,
actually. I might actually have a look at
getting some of these myself made.
Actually. There's some classic issues in
here that I don't have, and I'm sort of collecting those 90s
white dwarfs now, so I might have to go through there and
have a peek through and grab a few issues for myself at some
point. But that's really nice to see,
yeah. Yeah, they're on my double s
because I collect them as well. So.
But whenever you buy a big lot, you're in loads you know that
you've already got. Yes, if you if you can buy them
a bulk and that's something I just don't have the luxury of
doing here in Japan. It's just impossible unless,
well, I, I found one particular individual, a really good guy,
where we did a swap on trading on for painting and I collected
a lot of old white dwarves in pristine condition actually.
But now it's just, yeah, getting those next probably, I don't
know, from 1:50 to about 200, probably those fifty issues.
And I'm pretty happy with that. I think they're the, well, the
classic sort of Robin Jews era. Early to mid 90s, right?
Yeah, early, mid 90s. Yeah, exactly, Exactly mate.
So you got to leave like you got the 1:50, you got a couple
issues at that. I've already got that one.
So it's 150 onwards. So you got one 77161 they're
classic ones. 181 Yep, really nice ones you saw.
The white door actually I've sold about 20 issues in the past
few months I think, which is nice.
Well I better get in there quick quick then and grab a couple
while everyone. Coming up at some point, I'm
sure. Yeah, yeah, of course, mate.
That's great. So yeah, you do have, you do
have the the books and there's some supplements there.
I think you had an advance here request booklet there at one
stage. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It wasn't quick enough to nab it.
There was some Blood Bowl in here as well, so that's cool.
Some classic second edition models in here and 3rd edition.
So that's nice to see and some alternate models in here as
well. So there's a, there's a lot
there to cater for everybody. Wallmaster, Mordheim, Middle
Earth strategy game, Necromunda, you've got Shields now.
Shields is something that people are always asking for.
So that's nice to see some of those old Marauder Shields.
But yeah, mate, I'm really, I'm really glad that the the
website's a success. Like I said, I'm glad I'm
indebted to Scott for pointing me into your direction and for
us to connect. Thank you.
Scott. Yeah, thanks to Scott, thanks to
Blackadder Minis, and he's also got some nice gaving models up
there at the moment. So between the both of you,
someone who's got a bit of spare change can put together a nice
gaving army I think. Great.
Yeah, yeah, I'm going to, I'm going to be able to paint.
I think I showed you a photo of the stuff I've got here to paint
for the next Advance Your Request series.
So I'm really looking forward to getting on with those.
But mate, look, it's been fantastic to catch up with you.
Richard. I really appreciate your time
today and we'll have to keep in touch, especially cover your
first white dwarf in the very near future.
That'll be awesome, mate. I love that.
Thank you very much, Josh. Thanks again mate.
Take care and I'll leave the links in the description for
people to check out your website and go from there.
Thanks again Richard. Take care mate.
Thanks mate, Bye.
