$7.95 each... I am getting too old for these prices...

Ah, 32 mm - good, no temptation at that size...

Gracias,

Glenn

Interesting! Any idea how long it's for? The "details" button just sends you to the store.

Zoggin-eck,

I am trying to reduce the armies pre-retirement when we move from a 5 bedroom house to a two bedroom apartment so I am prioritizing and changing most collections (where possible, still looking for soldados de cuera and presidials in 15 mm or smaller,) from 25+ mm (includes 32 mm) sized figures to 3/6/15 mm sized figures instead, exact size depending if "mass battle" or "small battle" or "skirmish" figures.  Storage space,  (currently 20 plus KR Multicases and a lot of the "for sale" stuff  not in those,) will be limited.

I also fid that much money for a figure grates on my 60+ year old brain.  I understand the profit thing and the costs of producing the figures but it is a secondary reason I am moving to smaller figures.

Edit:  terrible typing fixed.

Gracias,

Glenn

I can under stand that. It's for a similar reason I am getting rid of a lot of my stuff. Space time and money being key factors. Getting rid of the warhammer stuff because the cost to keep going with it is just too high and I don't want to commit the sunk cost fallacy.

Personally I am try to make armies I can use for multiple game systems.

Sorry, I originally thought you were posting to the wrong thread, which is why I thought I better reply so you could see! What are you talking about, though? Interesting and understandable enough, but why bring it up? It's a thread mentioning a RAFM sale, which may be useful to people. Not all of their models are 25mm, they have 15mm and 90mm ranges along with rules and accessories. Where did you even get the $7.95 from? Most of their models aren't $7.95 each and taking a squiz, those that are can be larger or diorama pieces. Many of the infantry are four or six for that price.

Anyway, there's a few decent monsters and boxed sets I'd like to try. I still can't quite see how long it goes for. It seems they do this occasionally. I thought I saw that it was until the "15th" until I realised I was reading something posted years ago!

Exactly, why single out one small section of their store without even mentioning it?
