A little bit of GW history

Thanks to Ebay I am now the proud owner of RTB02. :D
I don't even play Orks but I couldn't resist.

Awesome!

I, like many of us I'm sure, remember getting that and RTB01 way back in the day.
Feel free to call me Dave!

A classic. The models look a bit dated now, but back in the day they were awesome.

Good find Spevna.

Oh, the tears well up in my beady orky eyes at the nostalgia.
Though, I still field a few of those boys even now. Just shows how truly, truly, slow I paint.

"Memory
All alone in da firefight
I can grin at da old dayz
I waz much greener then
I rememba the time I knew what real killin waz
Let da memory live again"

From da muzikal "Orks"

2000 yen including postage :)

I am a VERY happy camper.

I also picked up 10 metal chaos Terminiators and 5 Chaos renegades (back when thats what they were known as).

I've got my eye on some RTB01 minis too! Wish me luck.

Just picked up these boys to go with them;

5 'eavies for 2,300 yen including postage. Not as good as the last deal but not too shabby either.

I will soon be the owner of 18 boys, 2 nobz, and 5 'eavies, all of them Rogue Trader ere minis.

If I can get my hands on a RT era Warboss I will have the makings of a nice little army :)
