I was just wondering if anybody recieved any epic gifts for Christmas, and if so what did you get?  My wife managed to find a guy who had a good size epic eldar force for sale and was able to aquire it just in time for my Christmas gift.  It was a nice amount of unopened blisters (all are epic 40K versions) to add to a small eldar force I had already aquired through some trades.  I recieved the following items:

6 Blisters of Wave Serpent Tanks
4 Blisters of Falcon Grav Tanks
2 Scorpian Tanks
2 Blisters of Fire Prism Tanks
1 Blister of Night Spinners
1 Cobra Tank
1 Blister of Nightwing Interceptors
1 Blister of Phoenix Bombers
1 Vampire Raider

Not bad for a lady who has never been interested in gaming, but understands that if it makes me happy, then that is all that matters.

Nice work, Mrs. plm2212 :)
nothing in 6mm scale this time round - but I did get a boxful of 28mm Ancient Germans. :)

I didn't receive any Epic, but I did buy myself a gift of stuff from JR Miniatures.

The wife (out of the blue) bought me a considerable force of Squats/Demiurg, all infantry, bikes, trikes and light arty. Already have some Rhino's Gorgons and Moles, so i just need some of the superheavy stuff and I'm good to go.

I have accepted the fact I won't be receiving any minis from my wife. Ever.

But I did buy myself a gift I have wanted for a long time: a table lamp with a large magnifying glass. Should come in handy when detailing small soldiers.  :)

Same here. That's why I buy my own gifts.  :;):

It would definitely make it easier for mine that every new Epic item on Ebay gets emailed to our shared email account!

Plus she plays and knows what I want to fill out my armies (though she didn't get me anything Epic this year, my wants list is currently only 2 new space marine attack bikes and 2 new metal space marine bikers).

_________________
Epic- A version of the game with even smaller models that is often dominated by titans which are vehicles the size of a large building and have the ability to pwn...everything. There is also infantry, whose only function in Epic is to provide valuable traction to Titans walking across snowy paths.

Ahh, you see, I must have done something good in a past life or something. My wife loves games as much as I do. Part of my gifts to her were 'Mall of Horror' and 'Puerto Rico' board games.
