Post subject:  $15 baggie haul!

Whislt out in San Fran working on my company's indiegogo campaign, came across a guy selling bric-a-brac on the street.

He had an entire:

80s era small ork force
80s era eldar/harliquen/pirate force
80s era small chaos marine force

Ork, barbarian and skaven BB team

and loads of other stuff. Rather then panic and throw my wallet at him, I somehow avoided buying the lot.

FIFTEEN DOLLARS LATER:

3 zoats, some sort of cultist guy, some sort of pskyer (possible a genestealer hybrid?), 3 squigs and 4 Squats.
They'll nicley round out my 40k@50pts Tzeetech cultists and Squat options.

And more importantly:

Image
Three contemptor dreadnaughts,
two terrible sentinels
five oversized demons
one tzeentech (yay!) greater demon
one massive genestealer
one freaky tyranid thing
and a bionic squig on top of the tree....

The "cultist" looks like a Rogue Trader Eldar Gun Platform crewman, and the Psyker should be a Genestealer Cult Magus/Psyker. You forgot to mention the Exo-armoured Squat. :)

The two terrible sentinels are MkI War Walkers (IIRC). The massive genestealer is a Genestealer Cult Genestealer familiar. I used mine as a Broodlord, but it should work great as a Patriarch. The freaky tyranid thing (if the squid-like thing is what you refer to) brings back 40K Ork memories, used to play them a lot during the immensly fun Waaagh and Freebooter period. I think it is some sort of squig.

Not bad for 15$. :spin

Big squig (curiously enough on the same page as a Tyranid Warrior):

Thats a nice haul. The psyker is a Genestealer Magus and the cultist is an Eldar Guardian gun crewman. I am struggling with the Tyranid beastie. Its an Advanced Space Crusade era bio-constructor, takes over a victims brain..... same wave of releases as Grabber-Slashers.... which are awesome.

Damn nice find at a great price ! :spin That Genestealer was a 40K familiar ... I use it for an Epic Brood Brother ... or in the old days an Epic Genestealer Cult Patriarch ... As Fred mentioned.

That is definitely an old RT era squig... back when 'nids and orks squigs were exactly the same thing, back when nids had mind slaves :D thems where the days *sniff*

Nice haul :)
