COLLECTION DIARY: JUNE 2018

It's a Dirty Black Summer... again; so I hunted up some NICE Eldritch Horror miniatures, and terrain models for my Eldritch Horror Extreme Skirmish Game... to defy Miserable Summer! Hurry up and come back home Autumn!


I purchased a few neat little items this month for my Good ECO and Evil Bogger, Deep, and Vampire gangs! I have been thinking about Character-Gang boards for my game, and decided the Ultimate Guard 14 pocket sheets will work very well. I happily also finally found a very cool fence setup that I like and can use with all of my Lovecraftian terrain. I hunted up some very nice deals on a pair of O Scale old school model house too this month, and more vehicles for my Dunwich and Arkham Environments! 


I have been looking around for a nice YT-1300 Light Freighter model for my LEGION Terrain... for a while now. I decided to get the silly force awakens version after I saw a video review of it where the owner had black washed it and made it look great. I also stumbled on another wacky toy recently that will become my REBEL BD-A7... cause reasons! The nice lights set is going to be used for lighting some of my Legion buildings and as fire/explosion tokens.

Happy Collecting Boss out!

BOSS SHOP: LEGION - REBEL BD-A7 HEAVY TANK PROJECT PREVIEW

I am staring the work on the many little extras The BD-A7 has access to this week. I was almost surprised to see just how much 40K bits I own. I have been squirreling away these parts over the months since LEGION was announced. I think I have enough raw plastic to make some cool looking tank configurations now... with plenty of options!


Some of the bits pictured here are going to serve double duty as BD-A7 weapons and defense emplacements for my various bases. These options are possible by magnetizing the joining points, which is kinda awesome!


The tank has Hard Points and Tech Cons at the sides and rear of the main deck (turret - gun housing) and along the sides of the main deck (Luke is standing on the main deck).


The rear transport compartment has the capacity to carry a six troop strong squad or a two troop operated heavy weapon team. I am going to add some lights and an anti troop grenade launcher above the door.

If you would like to add this cool model to your own Rebel Army you can get the The Corps! Elite First Response Tank for less than $10 at Wally! There are other tanks in this GI*JOE'ish little product range which look good too. Have FUN!

PROJECT OVERVIEW

MORE TO COME...

FFG ANNOUNCES PREMIUM LEGION BASES!

FFG has made me very happy with this little announcement today! I am building Special Factions for my LEGION Game Collection, and now with these bases I can use a mix of the regular bases and these babies.


These bases are going to be great for my Techno Mutants and models in the other factions that are going to be used to guard bases and star ports and so forth!

FFG ANNOUNCES LANDO'S MILLENNIUM FALCON FOR SCUM!!!

I think many have wanted this for years, or something like it for our beloved SCUM. As soon as I knew this ship was in the SOYLO thing... I was certain we would get this ship... this year. Sure enough! Checkout the coolness in the Fast Enough article!


This design has been around since The Original Trilogy, and this new modern interpretation of it looks great to me! I almost bought the large version of the toy to use as terrain for STAR WARS LEGION in fact. I am going to really enjoy having a YT-1300 in SCUM... finally!




I love that the cool little default fun benefit of the ridiculous mouse-mess-movies is that we are at least getting these excellent New FFG Ships!

Happy SCUM Boss out!
