Oww, my eyes, my eyes! Put on shades or dim the monitor before viewing the second link - or better still, go for greyscale!  :cool:  :p

My poor eyes!

I normally disagree with L4 on the use of "clown colors", but this definitely belongs in a circus. ?:D ?I'm not sure what's worse, the colors or the price. Both are ridiculous.

:laugh:  :laugh:  :laugh:

I was tempted to look at this item, not just for the price, but when I saw the title (classicly misleading): "Very Well Painted", I thought 'it better be 'Eavy Metal standard to justify THAT price.'


When I saw, I nearly fell off my chair, I was laughing so much...

:p  :D

Tzeentch? I thought NoiseMari4nes are the ones which have dulled senses so that only the strongest sensation will appeas them(thus colorful armor and sonic-weapons).
The paint sheme of this Emperor reminds me of my first painted NoiseMarines (the one with guitar and irokese haitrcut)

Maybe the seller meant "well painted" in that it's *very* painted, almost a well's worth of paint...

Or that could be actual gold paint to justify the price... hard to tell, now that I'm blind.

I didn't know that Eldar Harlequins used Imperator Titans. At 75 pounds the Eldar can keep it, thats more than I got for my BT army last week and is worth less than the entire army.

The paint job on that titan is probably why they have that warning about using your glue in a well ventilated area. I always look at the buy it now stuff because every once in a while you'll see a nice lot where the seller can't be bothered to look up what its worth. Have to wade through many a ?10 single stand of marines (ultra rare! very well painted!), what I don't get is you see the same traders trying to sell the same overpriced stuff week in week out. Its like they can't accept that nobody will pay ?10 for a 6mm jetbike.

Someone scooped three weapon laden "impereal titons" for ?6 the other day, wish I'd been bothered to get out of bed early to rebid on them now.

Yep, scooped a E:40k IG sprue for ?6 the other day with buy it now, complete with catachans etc.  Maybe a bit pricey, but the minis are so full of character that i dont mind.  

On the multi part marines- im already going cross eyed as it is; that is pain I can do without!!  :p

Good luck to the bidders though!

I'm watching the multi-parters and considering.  My bidding will likely be determined by the success or failure of a couple other auctions, since I have some eBay gift certificates to burn.
