Could we have a 'Swap/Spares' thread, for those of us who have a few left over figures, or who are after one?

For instance - I'm after a British Officer to be the guy in 'Gettysburg' who is with the Rebs.  I'm thinking a Crimean Officer, but don't want a complete pack for one figure.

Is this a workable (and acceptable to his Clonliness)?
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

I would like this too, as I have quite a few half packs of hints like 1866  Saxons that I'll never use elsewhere.

Nice idea :). Now all we have to do is get Noel, Keith, Maggie and John to run it ;).

I'm up for it too.
Though would rather Noel and Chegwin were left out.
Life is too important to be taken seriously.

I have a small purple cuddly dinosaur that I would be willing to swap for one of Kev's armies
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Nosher

I have an ex wife that I'm open to offers on.

High mileage, high maintenance, penchant for shoes, handbags, hairdressers, other women's husbands/boyfriends, lager and lime (classy chick...). Will accept half pack of Napoleonic Austrians O.N.O
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

How about if I send you a pack of 1866 Austrians NOT to send her my way?

You don't have any Saxon reiters in raupenhelm by any chance, Lemmey? I can offer various French odds and sods for the late nineteenth century. Or Prussian cavalry.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

I have a few spare Dark Elves I am willing to donate as long as Nosher keeps his Ex caged up.
Some other bits and bobs. Cost is postage or a beer if you pick it up in person.

Duke Speedy of Leighton

Don't think so, but I will check later!

I'm after some more Dark Elves, what have got?  ;)

I've got orcs (with greatswords), a giant, some ghouls and probably some other fantasy stuff to offer. Have to have a rummage later!

Cheers,

Why ever not? She seemed happy to 'swap' at the drop of a hat (or should that be zipper...)

Good Point Well made.  In this case we will allow you to swap.  You are not showing what you are swapping in a good light thought

I think you will be lucky to be offered a pastic GW space marine with one arm  - But even so thats probably a bargain  :d :d

Perhaps you should post a picture of her on the Totty thread, so anyone with a spare limbless Space Marine can see if they are interested!  :d

Might also serve as a public warning to keep your limbless Space Marine.....  :-\
