The Evil Dwarfs are here... |
|
Edited on Wed Dec-27-06 11:05 AM by NewWaveChick1981
:yoiks: You know, the little-known eighth and ninth members of the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs entourage---Crampy and Bloaty. These creeps show up every few weeks, and I'm sick of them. Somebody make these bastids go AWAY!!!!!
I think I'm gonna make some green tea, take some Advil, and veg out in front of the TV....

The folks at Citadel planning to re-release the Warhammer Chaos Dwarfs. (only pic I could find is here since the Games-Workshop site itself is blocked at my work.) http://cgi.ebay.com/5-CHAOS-DWARFS-C16-Dwarf-Warhammer-Citadel-1985_W0QQitemZ230069222014QQihZ013QQcategoryZ44127QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

8. I'd be more interested if they were unpainted |
|
but, my armies are Empire, Orcs & Goblins, with a few Wood Elves and a few Dwarves... I don't have time for another army.

11. Sorry I couldn't...too many memories.... |
|
I used to love painting them...always wanted to get back into it, just never did. I do have a bunch of unpainted stuff but my plans are to someday pick up the ol' brushes again. I thought I saw an online Citadel linc which featured the catalogues going back to the early-mid '80s. It seemed to me that some of those figurines were still in stock. Amazed as hell at that bid though. $18.50 for 5 badly painted figurines is absolutely amazing. I must be missing out on something here, maybe those were the rarer pieces from the Citadel Warhammer collection.

13. Sorry for hijacking this thread... |
|
I guess I could continue in PMs.
But, Chaos Dwarves were not released in the last version of Warhammer (meaning the 6th edition, which went until they recently released 7th edition a month or two back) So, there has not been a new official version of Chaos Dwarves since probably the 90s, other than crewing of the Chaos Hellcannon. They didn't even rate Dogs of War status in 6E, and I don't think they even got PDF rules on the GW website. I think the price is due to the fact they still have a small, but loyal, band of CD players.
I haven't been into minis for that long - probably since '99 or so. I was a pretty good painter in the beginning, but since I got married in 2001, my painting time went way downhill, and when I became a dad in 2003, my painting has come to a screeching halt. The only way I get anything painted now is to pay somebody to do it for me.

17. Ditto that NewWaveChick1981 |
|
Ah then that explains it. That price had to be that high for a reason. You are quite welcome to continue discussion via pm but I am leaving for the day, may take a bit for me to get back to you... I didn't recognize any of those charactors from my own collection. I know I have a lot of Dwarves, perhaps 30 or so are of the Citadel Warhammer variety. I know I have a few who opperate cannons and it seems to me that the crossbow guys had plastic crossbows and/or shields...I could be mixing them up with my orcs though. (Got a bunch of them as well as goblins and elves. It's been awhile since I looked through those old boxes I squirreled them away in years ago.

they have a knack for popping up at the most inopportune times imaginable. Grab a bottle of Advil (I take 'em like candy), a bag of M&Ms and put your feet up.

(told by my local group of djs; all whom are at my house at sometime or another)
Q: What do you call a club full of strippers; half who have their periods and the other half who have a yeast infection?
A: A whine and cheese party. (am I gonna get in trouble for this?) It's a JOKE people. Calm down.
