Picture requested... and delivered:
ME16 - Miniature Exchange 16 (FINAL list on page 6)
- Thread starter ZapotekE
- Start date
Got my packet from Rev this morning. Bizarrely enough it contained the exact same mini that prompted me to sign up for mini exchange in the first place!
Apparently the thing at the top is a \"Xiticix\" from the game RIFTS whatever that is. I saw it in mini exchange 11 and thought it looked so wierd that I really wanted one just to put it together and see what the hell it looked like. I reasoned that if people were sending stuff that unusual then I wanted a part of mini exchange. Even wierder, before rev sent it to me, he got it from Treide who in turn got it in a mini exchange from someone going by the name of Jahecker. It\'s been all round the world but now it\'s stuck in Scummy Coventry and it ain\'t going any further lol

Got my package from sunny Arizona this morning, a cool postcard and map of the grand canyon - between treide and Desert dragon i\'m starting to get an idea of what life must be like in the states!!!
Only managed to grab a quick pic, which leaves out the best bit of the exchange - A BOTTLE OF JALAPENO SPICEY PEPPER SAUCE!! all the way frmo the states!!! woohoo - I love that stuff!
In the pic is:
1) a warrior monk type dude (I will paint another fantasy miniature one day!)
2) a \'ferengi\' cruiser frmo star trek (cos triede knows I\'m a sci fi geek!)
3) a multi part mini that looks like a biatch to put together!
I love ME! (thats mini exhchange, not myself..)

Here\'s the rest of them including the bug warrior that I couldn\'t resist assembling straight away.
Some kind of riot control Dwarf from Privateer Press (the first PP mini I have owned) a very old looking doggie, a Reaper Vale archer sculpted by Werner Klockemon and the bug boy.
Cheers Rev :bouncy:

Well I am glad that Xiticix found a home with you! Jahecker sent me a set of two of those, so I can confirm that the assembly is a bitch! I have yet to attempt painting mine, but will be very interested to see what you do with yours. IIRC, it has 4 arms, and I had a difficult time getting the lower arm to look \"natural\" when I pinned everything together. Good luck!
confirmed package from beowulfthehunter. Three pretty interesting pieces. I think I\'ll wait for pics until I can get started on them. It\'s not stuff I would typically buy for myself since I only ever buy stuff relating to our D&D game, but the wheels are already turning as to what to do with them.

Nurglings can appear in both fantasy and 40k. For fantasy it\'s be a 40mm square, and 40k, 40mm round.

Received from MPJ this very day:
Two Eldar, and a Reaper undead hero.
Oddly enough... I\'ve seen the Ral Partha undead Egyptians before! I think my brother received that set as a gift once, and I know the remains of one of the figures is in my bitz box somewhere... The space trooper guys look like Alternative Armies or something (?)
Mortis, I will try and ship a package your way ASAP as soon as I hear from Wingz. Not that we don\'t trust you :innocent:

Don\'t. Everybody sends what he wants to send, two unharmed (i.e. newish) miniatures is the minimum, send something you don\'t really want anymore, and of which you think your receiver might like it. If you\'ve done something like that, there\'s nothing to be embarrassed about. Some people send out shiploads others send just a few. As long as people don\'t start to _expect_ too much and don\'t send out two plastic chewed on stripped warhammer fantasy Brettonian bowmen from a few starter sets ago, found in the bargain bin of their local store, it will all remain a friendly gesture and way to exchange some (unwanted, yet appreciable) miniatures around the world.
Anyway, welcome to the ME-pool, and hope everybody has a nice exchange.

I\'m honoured... I think
It\'s a fun model but I\'m seriously tempted to use the cool undead horses for something else.Wingz - thanks for the confirmation, I\'ll try and get my package to Mortis mailed out on Monday.
