Title: Araby Djinn wanted
Post by: Aldhick on May 22, 2013, 12:07:56 PM
Hi, I know this is bit ulikely, but just for a case... The Araby Djinn&Wizard is the last thing I'm missing in my soon-to-be Araby army, so if there's anybody having one spare, I'm seriously interested.. Thanx.

Hey there Aldhick!

I have a Djinn/Wizard blister, but am not sure if it's entirely complete (would have to check in the week end, but I am pretty sure it actually is complete). You can have it for 10 Euros+ whatever the shipping costs.

Cheers
TooN

Btw.: You have a great Undead army :) looking forward to seeing your araby army!

Soo... I was afraid of it, but still hoping it's not gonna happen.. well it did...     I made an order of some WM stuff at my local GW retailer some three weeks befor the SG were getting oop. As I've learned, these guys make an order from GW once in a month. So unfortunately they made the order after the stuff I wanted was already gone...
But worst thing is, that they let me know yesterday.. meanwhile I made an order from US and so on...

So what I'm missing is - unit of Black orcs and Araby Elephants..
If anybody has some spare by chance...
Thanx

You could see if you can get some of the BO that Alexi made (Bel)

Hey guys.
 Claus - if you mean those on eBay, so if you look closely at the pictures, they are ordinary orcs, not black orcs...
 Lex - thanx for the advice. But I'm kind of fond of GW minis, so this is not an option for me :-(

LOL... did you ever see Bel's BO ??  they are on par with the GW ones, and even represent one of GW's Regiments of Reknow

Yes, quality is really good...

I didn't say anything about quality....  I'm just a gamer and collector focused on old citadel miniatures. What is so "LOL" about it?? I'm fully aware there are much better and proportional sculpted minis around from other companies and sculptors, then those from Citadel (especially in 28mm range), but I like its spirit and like to have them in line.

Srry for the lol, but Bel managed to sculpt those BO to be very near the imagery of the original WHFB Regiment of Reknow and IMO fitting in with the O&G done by GW.

I just meant to provide you with a possible alternative for the basic Warmaster BO, which may or may not be hard to get...

I just wanted to help to get suitable figures for your army in case you can not find GW ones. I didn't know you are so focused in Citadel.

And I really appreciate that. But as you can see, I'm still a newbie here, so I don't know who Alexi or Bel is. Google didn't help me much to find this particular BO sculpts. So some more detailed information will be appreciated (some link, if it exists?). Thanx.

Hey Aldhick,

I think I should have spare BOs. I am not sure though and will check at the weekend (need to make a list of the stuff I own at some point in time).

Btw. the Djinn has been sent on his way to you on Monday.

Lex is right - Bel's Black Orc figures are absolutely awesome - better than the "official" GW Black orcs.
I have 4 regiments of both types and I (and all our gaming group) thinks that the Bel BO look more "warhammer world background tastic"
