Well, in DK you can't buy a pint for much less than the equivalent of £4...  >:(

the Golden Compass balloon thing has arrived as well... may get that, some potentially usefull bits in that...

Useful giant cowboy for pulp Wild West and a couple of hot air balloons, when dismantled, for 15mm ACW to early WW1.

Well, I thought I would pop into our local one on the way home and see if any of the good stuff had made its way this far north.

Unfortunately, no Hellboy.  :(


But...

I did pick up two packs of Batman Heroclix, which are surprisingly good.  :)  (favourites are Jim Gordon, a very nice figure, and Ra's al Ghul. I also got Talia, al Ghul's daughter, although the woman who captured the dark detective's heart appears to in fact be a giant no-necked freak. Go figure.)

Also got the Golden Compass carriage (last one, yay!) which means I have to do VSF stuff now. Dammit.

I picked up Scoresbys balloon as well... damn useful... I'm thinking 28mm weather balloons for any number of KKBB/Doctor Who science installations gone wrong...

reckon the basket thing could be turned into something useful as well... could be turned into a basket for the Zepplin and make a 28mm one man scout zepplin... or with some engines and some work a one man spaceship of some kind...

Got a Hellboy pack today. No Batman ones though  :(

With Wizkids being closed down, hopefully this is just the first in a big wave destined for poundland! Come on piles of Aliens box's, I'll buy them all!!!!

I was just about to burst my head with anger that you Almost-Scots get Batman stuff, when I saw the cat pic   lol

You just made my day!

Mind you, Poundland must really hate us in the West Midlands  :'(
