Today was the first day in Munich which I would call a(n early) summer day – sunny, warm, really could have been worse… so I chose to take a nice walk after work and drop by one of the hobby stores of that city. Yes, there are actually quite a lot of hobby stores in Munich, even though I normally only visit one of those on a regular basis.
This one isn’t that one, to be honest. It used to be the best store for RPGs and Tabletop in the city, but that’s a long time ago. Nowadays its fame has waned a lot, more often than not they won’t even bring in the major new releases… a pity…
Three things to warm my heart: a big Roleplaying Book about Roleplaying Games and two sisters with weapons I like...
So I entered the store expecting nothing – and got quite a lot. To my astonishment they had two copies of Shannon Appelclines “Designers & Dragons” – I missed that book from Mongoose Publishing when it had a very limited release last year. Well, as you can see I didn’t miss it this time – once I have read it, expect a review!
They also had some old blisters with Sisters of Battle there, and they were cheaper than from Games Workshop’s Mail Order. I couldn’t pass that up, too.
If I had a melter, a melter in the morning, a melter in the evening... shooting all time...
Here we have a Sister with Multmelter, one of my favourite miniatures, both as a sculpt and as a weapon. I guess this sister will become part of my first unit of sisters I am currently working on. Or she will be the first to join a celestian squad… we’ll see…
Either two whips or a whip and some gun... we'll see...
The second miniature I chose is a Sister Repentia Mistress. At the moment I own no Sisters Repentia and as I’m not feeling too well about the unit and the sculpts, I am not sure I will go and buy some Eviscerator-wielding miniatures… but I do like this mistress, so I might well convert her to a Celestian Superior by exchanging one of her whips with a gun… gotta take a look at my Bitz Box…
Anyway, I learned something today: never underestimat the old shops in the city. Sometimes they might surprise you with old blisters – and new books you were actively looking for…
