Nice to know I'm not the only person annoyed by that. :D

Does that work for plastics too, or just metal figs?

Hey Guys,

I've decided to Ebay my complete boxed copy of Wizards of Morcar, I put it on Ebay for 99p but it's already seen quite a lot of bids. Thought I'd mention it here just in case one of you is interested.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Heroquest-Wizards ... 500wt_1129

I plan on putting a boxed Ogre Horde up at some point to, but I need to strip some of the mini's first. (go Dettol!)

Cheers,

Daniel.

Apparently it's OK for the Pb-Sn alloys - I didn't know for sure. But I can tell you it is perfectly fine for polystyrene models, and I'm sure that includes HQ plastics. Granted I haven't tried Easy Off on them yet. Proceed with caution (i.e. use it on something you have a few of, like skeletons) first.

Congratulations! That's the highest I've ever seen an opened and punched Wizards of Morcar go for. :shock:

Complete Mage of the Mirror!
Didn't expect to see one on ebay anytime soon.
It's already at 112 BP and some days to go... Sadly, I can't afford it right now.
Have a look ;)

My Lord those prices are ridiculous!!! Who in their tight minds would pay over 300 pounds for an expansion set??? They either have too much money, or they do not know how to spend it wisely... Sheesh. Pretty depressing really :lol:

Well Sjeng, I was raised to think that way, too...by parents who had been especially taught under their parents that lived through the great depression and wartime rations.
We're alive on this planet for only so long. If it makes you happy and really satisfies your weekends - why not blow a few hundred? How much do people spend on ONE day for their wedding???

It's your pick how you blow your cash - but I learned gradually not to judge what anyone else does with moolah - it can't buy love, but it can buy pleasure! (wooohooo!) And it sure comes in and goes out no matter what you spend it on.
