I went into town to-day to pick up a painting and buy some more superglue. The hobby shop closed down, sadly (NOT the game shop, to differentiate) but I found out from the framers that the glues and things were still being sold by A Very Nice Shop called English Bob's, a UK import shop generally specializing in sweets and whatever you'll find on their website.
I found my usual cyanoacrilate and the Shop commented on how expensive it was. I said I was used to expensive and mentioned I did GW. He then said he had tried to stock GW, but he was going to have to get it in dearer than usual so it wasn't worth it-- he then produced a box of AoS Liberators and said he would sell it to me for ten dollars to get it off his hands.
I said "Yes please" and smiled, but inwardly I flipped my shit.
NZ.
Dollars.
That's 5.80 pounds sterling or 7 US bucks. My pot of glue was more expensive than the sigmarines!
And here's proof they weren't recasts!
Thank you for letting me share this; I'm sorry I'm blowing my trumpet a bit, but I've never had this happen to me before, and it's so awfully exciting! And thank you very much, Bob-- I'm sure that's not you name-- you definitely made my day, and I'll make very sure I return some time!
Bye bye for now.
Delighted for you. Hope you do something fun with them.
