They don’t have a monopoly in shops, in the same way Levi, Dr Martins, Nike, Addias and a myraid of other companies don’t have monopolies in their respective markets. Owning your own retail chain does not make you a monopoly. And the rest of what you typed has no relevance to whether GW is a monopoly or not, which is the point I’m addressing. I can suggest some primers in economics if you wish, if you actually want to learn some microeconomics and theory of the firm.
Anyway, probably better I stick to posting pictures of toy soldiers, music and my garden, a much better use of my time.
One problem with mixing different ranges tanks, they aren’t all the same size! PSC Stug is noticeably smaller than the Battlefront version.
Proof of Life! Finally had a few minutes to post pics of the assembled Realmgates. I think they would be good for both fantasy and sci-fi. If I dropped a few appropriate bits around them they could also be used as stargates.
@unclejimmy those vehicle bits never arrived. You may want to track the package. Chances are it is languishing in Canada Customs behind crates of cocaine filled baby turtles… but you never know.
Damn! Love the Kelly’s Heroes models! The Zvesda T-34 looks great as well. Nice work.
OMG, if I worked for you we’d never get anything done… well… a lot of gaming and hobbying. Kinda the point, and I could use a change.
One of the guys doing gate security called in sick, and the gate sergeant couldn’t find a replacement and couldn’t get the guy who was already there to work an extra four hours, so I took half the evening shift, as I had trained there for that contingency. I thought I’d do the guy a favour by heading over to the gate half an hour early, and didn’t expect him to say “About fucking time you showed up.” I fired him.
@robert Well done on that Nurgly thing. I didn’t even see the little guy till you picked him out with that yellow. Good call.
@robert , Flowers and AFV’s, two of my favourite things! Wow, big difference in size on those Stug’s. I haven’t bought a lot of armour yet, but have a few boxes of PSC Shermans and Mk IV’s. What do you recommend for American/British and German armour?
A kindred spirit at work. I also have this posted on the battle board project:
@woldenspoons I feel your pain. I’m languishing at work as well, and was rubber necking earlier. Time to go check on all my minions.
@ceppie the wee yellow dude was just added and I had just glued him on before posting! I’d have been worried if you had of seen him before 🙂 He has gotten another couple of friends to play with now.
I do hope I remembered to close that paint pot… otherwise it will be very dry tomorrow when I go back to do some work.
As for tanks for British and Americans… I’m not sure. Battlefront are a bit easier to build, less fiddly, but are a little bit more expensive than PSC and seem slightly bigger… my photo probably isn’t the best guide. PSCs availability has been fairly patchy in the last wee while as well. They have been producing a lot of board games and perhaps neglected keeping new products coming out in 15 and 20mm plus keeping on top of inventory.
@unclejimmy I saw that picture pop up on my Pinterest feed too.
Orks using ‘shields’ that look like a rhino when they’re all lined up.
Here it is (note the ‘not ork’ text )
Pinterest being what it is I can’t find the source …
Almost closed…less than 60 minutes to add anything for this week. Failing that just wait until friday! I am still slopping paint on scatter terrain. I gave up on the Foxtrot Ranger (for now) as trying to paint it so it even looks tidy is proving harder than I thought. I might give it another go this weekend.
Proof…
I also started on the other Antipode. They are older sculpts and it shows.
The foot/rock was bad enough, but I had to fill it’s bottom with superglue and green-stuff!
