Its a very nice figures and well painted (almost got a 'flat' like quality in that photo). I wont be going to Salute this year - i went last year and really enjoyed it but this year i've negotiated a day pass for the Toy Soldier show instead.

Yeah I have gathered a decent spending budget, selling some of the kids' favourite toys, the Delvaux handbags of the Mrs, two gold teeth and a kidney so I'll be ordering some goodies as well  ;D

...selling a kidney...

I'll swop you it for a Nokia 3310, a roll of cellotape, and a calculator with no batteries...

If I could find the batteries, I'd be able to add up the orders properly, make more money, and buy a limited edition kidney...   :P

On the other hand, you run a lot more chance of getting kidnapped and drugged, only to wake up with your exclusive show-off kidney gone!  Or so I hear from sources I am unacquainted with  :D

If we're not too busy running from game table to game table making pics, socializing, and paying attention not to forget our bags of goodies somewhere, we most certainly will!  :D
