Is this serious?

DO bear in mind that the Richard at SOL decided at one point that his site would only include \"Unreleased\" minis that were \"official\" in some way meaning they were actually intended for release or for some official purpose. It was his opinion that \"test pieces\" and the like were too numerous and narrow in scope for him to worry about, hence his site not including the Juan Diaz farseers or the Mark Bedford space marine.

AFAIK, there is no site attempting to provide a gallery for thos rarer unreleased pieces. Since I have plenty of space and bandwidth, I keep think about trying to start one, but I have given the idea any serious momentum yet... :)

Cento, I have looked at mine and they have the GW stamp on the base slot as well as the name of the mini and the year, I know I got them from GW. I didnt even know that other games systems or model companies even exsisted until about 2002. So could not have got it from anywhere but GW. So does this mean that mine is authentic?! I cant believe someone paid 75 for it, Tim_F I agree...... Madman!

Gods if mine went for 10 I would be dancing all the way to the bank! Looking at the Citadel rarities I have 3 models worth something to someone, yay! Army box High elf army standard bearer (hate the model) Elf stone thingy (hate that too) and of course the mage in question (hate the two I have) ............ Hey I could be making some money here!!!!!! lol

Madmen with money head my way!!!


Well, since we\'re kinda on the topic, how much do u think i could get for a still sealed limited edition GD archon in about 30 years? i am way too urged to paint it, but seeing as so many people probably have the same idea, i wont get much $$$$ off of it anyways. Penny for your thoughts?

t_haye2, must be great to have such individual minis :D (BTW I first saw your painting via GW, it showed me that just because I am female, doesnt mean that I cant be into the hobby! Thanks for that! Girl power!!! lol ) Thanks for the idea finn17 its certainly an easy way to make money ;) although I would more likely give models to people I knew who wanted them than sell them. I would rather know that they will be loved, cherished, painted with care...............
*looks at the 75 that the mage got, looks at the confrontation minis that are begging to be purchased*
hmmmm well maybe..... I might sell .........Nope! *stamps foot* I will at least paint them.......... then sell them! lol

This is a hobby that people tend to move in and out of. The person to whom you lovingly give your valuable mini to today may, be selling it for a handsome profit themselves in a few years time. Besides how much more commitment do you want than a willingness to part with large amounts of spondulicks???

As a matter of interest, painted \'collectibles\' are no more valuable than unpainted ones. Possibly less so...

Seeing as you have two, I\'d compromise....flog one and cherish/giveaway the other:D

@ Vento: yup, i know that, but in general, the models on Stuff....are minis that have actually hit the production line, some of the minis I have never even got that far, due to several reasons. One of my pride and joys is the rogue Trader tourny trophy Juan diaz sculpted for the tourhies in Spain, nice big demon bust, better than anything forgeworld have done along the same lines. also several original versions of models that were later changed due to casting problems and the like. It\'s quite funny though, most of these minis were given to me by the actual designers as gifts, I would never sell them.
