A Parcel Arrives!

 Sent from the UK on 19 June, this was waiting for me today, 25 June - not too bad at all for free shipping with Caliver Books (although unfortunately, the figures are no longer any cheaper than buying them direct from source)

I have FINALLY acquired a few Bad Squiddo WW2 maidens to add to my Red Army hoard! And very nice they are too, although whether they are worth 10% more than 40 Warlord 28mm plastic infantry figures is a moot point......



5 packs, weighing in at 290g - or NZ$110!


82mm mortar and crew


Three tank riders


HMG crew - weapon in 4 parts, yet to be assembled


Flame thrower team


The last six are all scouts



And that's your lot! Cleaning up and undercoating over the weekend, perhaps......

Thanks for stopping by and do let me know what you think of the Bad Squiddo figures!

  2. That is a great delivery time, as I can easily wait longer than this for free delivery or 2nd class post in the UK. A good mix of figures, but the legs of the flamethrower team look rather thin and out of proportion compared to the other figures. Picky I know, but you did ask:)! As for their value, it is all in the eye of the beholder type thingy...

    1. Yes, I thought so too Steve. I can see what you mean about the spindly legs, too!
