Steve J's Parcel

So it seems that I may have to continue to write posts on my phone because the "design" and "new post" tabs are absent from the laptop version of my Blogger account.....God knows why....

So here we go  - as promised, a show and tell reveal of what fellow blogger Steve J recently sent me.

First up are some very nice, painted ultra modern skirmish figures- I think they are possibly Spectre?

Next are some 15mm Future War Sci-Fi figures, including three "Walkers"



There are also thirty to forty painted figures, these being a small example. 



This is the figure that Steve initially offered to send me, and very nice she is, too!


There are also LOTS more of the near future war figures.. but unpainted !



Five or six bags worth as per above


And finally, a few more of the Spectre figures for me to paint up. 
Quite a nice little haul, I am sure you will agree...so once again,  sincere thanks to Steve for his generosity,  not least of which was the postage charge from the UK!

  1. Quite a nice haul, indeed! Very generous gift from Steve. On your laptop, confirm that you are still signed into your Blogger account. If not logged, you may not see design option.

    1. Thanks Jon, yes, it was a lot more than expected!
      With Blogger, I am logged in, but not as the same Gmail account as is on my phone, and for some reason, when I try to use the"righr" one, Blogger says it cannot verify the account or something similar. I logged out and back in again a couple of hours ago, but it still does not seem to recognize the "new" Gmail account....

  3. I'm glad they all arrived safely and will get used, rather than sitting in my storage units, never seeing the light of day! Enjoy:).

  6. Nice gift from Steve there. but now don't you feel like you have to paint them?
    I once got a DS9 model for my Star Trek gaming that a friend printed out for me. I've never painted it. and he hasn't given me anything since... ๐Ÿ˜

    I can be of no help on blogger.
