Lupercal

Hello fellow Wyrdos! Unfortunately, I missed out on the Easter and Christmas sales of 2021, as well as some other recent sales the last couple of years and some of the final releases that came in m2e. Please help me find the pieces I am missing. I am willing to pay USD or trade from my list below. I am located in California, in the USA, but I am happy to trade or buy/sell internationally within reason. I am looking for the following, preferably NOS or unpainted(but will take painted depending on condition): -Larger-Than-Life Puppets Easter 2021 Promotional Sprue -Bah-Hum-Rug Waldo from Christmas 2021 (The one that is lying down, NOT sitting in the chimney) -Alt Reva from the end of m2e -Alt Joss(Alexei Sokolov) -Alt Lazarus (Guilder) -Alt Sybelle (Emeline Bellerose) -Alt Killjoy(Silent Knight) -Alt Charles Edmonton -Alt Binh Nguyen -Alt Samantha Thrace -Alt Tanuki -Alt Draugr -Alt Titania -Alt Shikome (He-kome) -Deepest Depths Nightmare Edition Nekima -Blood in the Water Nightmare Edition Mature Nephilim -Malifaux 1988 Fatcap Nightmare Edition Metal Golem -Rare and interesting Fate Decks I have available for trade(all NOS or unpainted): -Money, USD or PayPal -Carver, unpainted metal, comes with both pumpkin head and burlap sack head, extremely rare. I believe just over 1000 were made. I will probably only trade this for the Larger than Life Puppets Sprue or something equally good. -Original ThroughTheBreach.com podcast fate deck.

Thanks for looking!

I just saw this today as well. I don't get all the hate for the Outcasts one, I think it is awesome and I got more of a creepy/bizzare vibe from it than a comical one like the gremlin one has. Maybe that is because I know what it is supposed to represent, I guess to a bystander it is just an old man riding a donkey but I also like this idea. I imagine someone meeting the Hodgepodge on a road out in the middle of nowhere thinking its just some old man traveling, and then inexplicably, Bad Things Happen... I love the Gremlin and Neverborn ones as well which is good because they are the factions I play besides Outcasts. The Arcanists one is neat, I think does a decent job considering how disparate the themes in that factions crews are. The Dragon is also neat but I think will require a good paint job because otherwise he is pretty boring. The Ressur and Guild ones are pretty much what I was expecting. Nothing wrong with that but meh. I don't see how scale/anatomy can be an issue on magical construct/creature thingies born from dolls and magic. There is no real rhyme or reason to their existance in the first place so why nitpick things like their clothes and body structure. I guess there could be issues with the human in the cage being a silly size in comparison to other models in the range but provided that isn't an issue I don't see the problem.

I have a rare blood condition that will cause me to die if I don't recieve my Dark Carnival a week earlier. Maybe you can put my order before Jansens in the queue

My 2 day shipping cost like 1-2 dollars more. I mean of course it depends on where you live, but it was much better for me than last years insane prices.

Let me know if you are planning on bringing it to a game night around here sometime soon maybe? Edit because my phone butchered that.

Well I am just in California but last year the shipping costs really were insane for here, and you only had the one option if I remember right? I feel for you guys accross the pond when it comes time for Gencon and Black Friday sales though. Higher shipping to start and then dealing with customs. Ugh.

I made a single order for Dark Carnival and the Ulix box. Now I have 3-4 more days to decide if I feel like picking up Mah and Wong too(maybe Shenlong? ), and a second Miss Anne Thrope. I would like to commend Wyrd on cutting down on the shipping costs, SO MUCH more reasonable than previous years have been. I don't know if its just the area I am in, but last year the shipping was absolutely ridiculous, this year it was cheap and I could upgrade it for 6 cents!

PM sent.

They just make small settlements as fast as they are wiped out, it is a never ending cycle of tiny frontier towns popping up and being destroyed almost immediately by creepy crawlies. Or I like to think so at least.

Sorry if I offended, I would love for you to explain a bit more what you meant then?

So you would have them only make limited edition models of things that are not out yet? Or not make any at all until they are caught up in plastics? Either way I think it is unecessary, the limited edition models are just a few boxes anually and wont really slow the main release schedule down all that much, and I don't see a reason to limit your choices to the small selection of models that are not out in plastic yet. If they make L.E. of something that doesnt exist, all the better, but that doesn't mean it has to be that way. They should make limited edition boxes with cool concepts that people want to buy because they are neat, not as some stopgap to fill a hole in the current line that will be filled soon anyway. The only wave 3 we have seen ready for release (besides the starter?) is the Crossroads box and I bet its near the end of that list of things that don't even have release dates yet. I would be very surprised if they were not working on the wave 3 stuff at this point, and if the wave 2 stuff wasnt all planned out/in some form of production as well. I really dont see your point about new blood, having the wave 3 stuff out sooner wouldnt make new people happier or more likely to join if anything it would give veterans something more to buy if they have everything. Unless you are just referring to the starter? I want Wyrd to catch up and ultimately begin releasing brand new things as much as anyone else but I think you are making mountains out of molehills harping on 1 story encounter box besides the obviously needed starter and 2 limited edition releases a year.

I agree with all of that and it is all true. Personally I like the librarian for the heal and the fact that my love Hannah can copy the heal. Perhaps almost always using the librarian with Hannah has skewed my view of the model, but I also find that the Outcasts faction (or the crews I build) dont really lack for the kind of firepower the gunslinger brings in any case. On a model to model comparison the Gunslinger is stronger than the librarian in several ways, but I think the librarian does more things that other models (in my typical outcasts crew) dont. It is very hard to compare the obvious combat benefits of the gunslinger to the librarians heal and the ability to deny suits on casts and things that can have a huge impact on the game but are not exactly easy to analyze in the same way. In short I think gunslingers are good with tara (I have tried one once and it preformed incredibly well, maybe not the largest sample size of games but hey), but I feel like if I am picking models for a tara crew more often than not I am going to spend the 7 points on a librarian simply because I am likely to have already chosen models that fill a similar role to the gunslinger for the rest of the crew and the librarian brings "more" to the crew that isnt already partially covered. I dont know if this last paragraph makes sense its a bit hard to explain. If you needed exactly what a gunslinger brings and didnt already have it in the rest of your crew, then I think it would compete much better with a librarian. Obviously if you like different crew compositions than I do this might not apply and the gunslinger might be much better for you. Tara needs more points in her lists. There is so much cool stuff you can do Or just make all the outcasts cheaper! Yeah thats a good idea

I agree, I wish friekorpsmen were 4 points, they wouldn't even have to be as good as they are now but 5 points for a model that still usually accomplishes nothing just like a 4 point model unless your opponent doesn't focus on it... idk. I guess friekorpsmen can be hard to put down for their cost. I just can't see a reason not to try to squeeze in another point or two for Johan, a librarian, a trapper. I had issues with endgame several years ago as well, they stopped supporting warmachine and hordes at one point because of a disagreement with pp, and although I didn't even play the game, their decision combined with people leaving 40k 5th edition kinda killed the mini scene there for a time. A lot of people left on principle or because warmachine and hordes was their main game. Games of Berkeley just depends on who is working there, I used to always run into this really angry woman who seemed to hate everyone in the store and just made me not want to be around there at all. (I think they had issues with people stealing models but srsly she was mean, killed the minis scene there for a time from what I understand but I didn't participate much there before so this is just hearsay). But other than that woman everyone who I have talked to who worked there was really great. I talked to one of the guys there a few months ago as well and he told me he would love me to come in and play just to try to drum up interest. But then I haven't had time to go anywhere. So maybe I will give them a call again and see if they still want to do that or have already started a group. I actually went down to both of these places to play a few times earlier on in the year and I kept asking about malifaux at endgame, I was just too early for hateful and those other guys to start grouping up there I guess. Still I am very much forward to checking out both stores now that I have more free time again.

FK in general are really good with Tara and the heavies make the synergies with Hannah and Tara together very interesting. The issue there is fitting them all into one list. And I meant I don't play her as resser. I just don't have the models to play any resser masters yet. As for where I play recently it has just been at a friend's house or my house but I really want to start going to endgame in Oakland again now that I have a bit more free time. I was talking to hateful darkblack about it a couple of months ago and from what I understand they have some people meeting there regularly but I just didn't have any time to check it out with the holidays(my work gets a bit busier in September-November as well). Hopefully the group there is still going strong and I will be joining them in the next week or two.

The problem with gunslingers is that librarians exist. Imo at least.

I love your article and went back to it last night without even noticing this bump to exclaim "Look at this whole yellow section on Hannah!" Good to see you are still updating and changing it as you play more. Maybe I would mention that Lazarus has a few fun tricks like assimilate with a Hodgepodge effigy allowing for more of "The Mist" and Hannah can make a new entry of assimilate for even more mist it if you want to be silly about it. Or she can assimilate the grenade launcher and you can start blasting away. I run the hodgepodge much more situationally but I usually run Lazarus over the Strongarm Suit with Hannah just because I think the options it gives her to self heal and assimilate are more useful than copying the Strongarms "charge up". Although of course the strongarm would be better in some situations. It is too bad they are so expensive that it is difficult to run both with Hannah and still fit in other support models. Hannah, a Librarian, and Lazarus together just have so many options and so much ranged (and melee) firepower and healing between them they can really adapt to a lot of situations. Your article makes me want to try her as resser every time I read it. MUST RESIST IMPULSE TO BUY HORDES OF ZOMBIES.

Thanks so much for the interest! Unfortunately I do not have any Santanas for trade, the only LE malifaux model I have spares of to trade away is the Miss Ery Teddy from the most recent Gencon. I have 1-2 of those to trade if anyone else is interested. In terms of whether I will deal with people in England, I would probably be willing to for most of the things on my list, but if the shipping cost was immense then I wouldnt want to pay it for the Katanaka Sniper and the LE gremlin. If the shipping was not crazy or it was any of the other models but the shipping was not absolutely insane then I would definitely work with you Englandish people. Still no santana though ;(

Unfortunately due to complications to do with a Thanksgiving vacation and a family member dying, I was unable to get anything from the black friday sale this year and so I am putting this out there in the hopes that someone picked up some extra stuff with intent to sell it on. I am looking for: -Translucent Pink Dreamer Box -Dayglow Pink Dreamer Box -Translucent Green Kirai Box -Dayglow Green Kirai Box -Translucent Brown Whiskey Golem -LE Katanananananananananana Sniper -LE Bayou Gremlin -LE Preformer -Translucent Red Bette Noir I am also looking for some things from before this black friday sale, some of which were purchaseable during it: -Vasyl the Bowling Vampire -Metal Lucius puppet from puppet wars -Translucent Green Pandora Box -Easter Gremlin Egg Hauler -Easter Gremlin War Rooster -Gremlinette Hog Whisperer I have MONEY, Warhammer fantasy and 40k in many flavors (armies), and a few Skorne and minions units from Hordes. I am also willing to just buy you models to exchange for something if you would rather do that than get money and buy them yourself. Thanks for looking and I hope some of you can help me complete my Wyrd collection or at least help me catch up to where I was before black friday

Compared to what she used to be (first ed) Pandora is a cute little kitten. Very tame.

I would imagine it will be delayed if it hasnt been sent out already or returned to Wyrd for some reason.

I have that pdf and use it on my phone with the Adobe Reader app and it can search the text just fine. Imo it was well worth the $6-7.00 or whatever I paid for it ( I think they were slightly cheaper when they first went up? Otherwise I guess I paid 10.00 lol) EDIT- probably was the old books I was thinking of that cost 7.00 each.

What if somebody was going to get Miss Ery but doesnt break $100 due to the refund of the Male MPM? Will they still recieve a Miss model or not? Also damn you customs!

I answered in one of the other threads but I guess you didnt see because I didnt leave it as a reply. Nathan said yesterday he thinks the packages are all out and they are just catching up with paperwork.
