    Sell it over FB, it goes pretty easily. I keep buying old boxes with limited edition minis off ebay and splitting the boxes on facebook.

    Which is a garbage excuse they've trotted out in the past. "Oh buy a split box!".

    Or just give us extra damn arms.

    Ah the delicate dance between seller trying to get you to buy a little extra and buyer who only wants to buy just what they need.

    Obviously as a buyer I agree with you.

    Is it still too expensive to do that? That was the reason given for it some time ago, when the original SpecOp minis released with extras. The ol' Guarda de Assalto came with 3 arms, one holding a spitfire and one holding a multirifle, and one just empty. CB can do it.

    ought to read, "I and my boyfriend bought all of them..." We have a lot of forum members for whom English is not a first language. Let's not make it harder for them by using sloppy grammar.

    Also, the original was fine. Pronoun order doesn't tend to cause too much confusion and is a somewhat arbitrary rule. Hence, "me and my yadda yadda" being very common. Verb tense being off can be a little more muddling. Luckily context tends to clear up the matter.


    I assume that TAK box is just a repackaging of their half of Coldfront?

    Yeah, continues their splitting of older Operation & Beyond boxes into single faction boxes.

    Edit: Slideshow on social media confirms its the Coldfront & Beyond contents.

    This was a really cheap year.
    I am not expecting new minis for my factions (Nomads, Ariadna, Haqqislam) every month but once in a while would be quite pleasing.
    Seems as CB is no longer interested in making money :D

    The Parvati AGL kit is positively gorgeous. Love the aesthetic.

    Compared to the render, that Monstrucker looks a lot better now that it's painted and seen from an overhead angle. Actually... the more I look it kinda resembles like my Assyrian friend's trucker dad.

    Also, I'm tots going to replace Casanova's CCW with a bouquet to turn him into an HVT.

    Not sure if you'd buy the Aristeia! mini, but hey, it's Ariadna. :-p
    Also, Monstrucker. Not a lot perhaps, but something.

    For myself, I have the old Ko Dali, and like it more than the one that came with the graphic novel, but this boxed one looks cool. I have no real need for the two YJ guys, but Nourkias and Ko Dali are nice enough. Not really table-guys though for me.
    Monstrucker looks cool, as does the dogface figure, but may hold off on them until I need to add stuff for free shipping.

    So, definitely the scenery pack, I've been waiting for it. Dire Foes as well, because sure. Probably the ITS pack if it's not crazy priced. Maybe the Hatail.

    Doubt the Parvati will be worth it to me, I like my Victorian Parvati well enough.

    Monstrucker is a dumpsterfire. Why the hell does he have a "66" on his pants? Aren't the Monstruckers Haqqislamite in origin? Why would Route 66(which is what I'm sure they're alluding to with a sphess trucker) be a 'thing' still for them?

    Also, am I crazy or is this now the second time CB has gone with "Start Collecting" as a tagline for a thing? Feels like they're trying to cash in on GW using the term for their starter sets...also, lol @ that being a SC Ariadna. It's Russians, not Ariadna.

    Why wouldn't it? Haqq isn't Middle Eastern exclusive, and their actual roots to "current day" would be through historical memes more than history books anyway from what's said in most of the fluff. They're long haul truckers, what would be the current day middle eastern stereotype to draw from there?

    Ariadna is the Faction, Tartary is the Sectorial, but you know that so are you searching so hard for something to be mad at you had to stoop to criticizing "start collecting" "66" and refering to the Cossack Tartary as not being Ariadna?

    It's just bewildering at times,

    Okay, so... will Parvati be available as a regular purchase, or does she come only in the AGL pack? If the latter, how much do these things cost? Because I want her...

    Also, I'm definitely liking the Character Pack Ko Dali. BTW. Does anyone here have some good photos of the Ko Dali that comes with the GL? Because I'm looking at the available photos and I just don't know what I'm seeing. Is she sitting on some weirdo alien tree? Or did she sprout three insectoid legs?

    As for Dire Foes: please explain to me who these guys are. Is the guy in the suit a trooper or a HVT? Who is that... girl? And, most importantly, what the heck is that monster - a cyborg Shavastii???
