Firstly, a confession. Whether I've turned to the dark side or taken my first steps into a larger world, I'm not sure, but I've only gone and spent my hard-earned money in Games Workshop! In fairness, the new version of Warhammer is so far proving to be a lot of fun (prompting this review from yours truly) and right now, my hobby desk looks like this:
Also this week, something of a modern-day holy grail arrived at my door. This:
As I have said before, these figures are great for games of Laserblade and Alien Worlds and just as we all thought the toy line had died (thanks to an over-confidence from Hasbro that the Emperor himself would have found a bit unfounded) this set emerged. Whether it was meant to be released or whether it made it's way to the UK by accident after the line was cancelled, I don't know. Fun figures though and that's what counts. Laserblade stats for Jabba and Co. coming soon!
Lastly, I have to express my thanks to Thor Shiel, Army Men collector extraordinaire, for kindly taking the time to review Laserblade on his blog. You can find his review here. I am, as ever, grateful for any feedback I receive and it is all the more satisfying when that feedback is positive. I will take all of Thor's thoughts on board - watch for special rules updates here and on the main site in the near future!
