Re: "Thrift Find of the Year"
Only kidding. I once thought I would put my initials in marker on the bottom of my terrain, but I gave up after about 30 pieces. I'm definitely OCD about storing and organizing it, but I'm not nuts enough to devote the time to marking all of my pieces. (no offense to all those nuts out there. )

I thought I was lucky with a $20 Craigslist RotV a couple months ago! You and G-O have so much more than I do, it's funny I've been playing longer than you both combined (I think?). |

Re: "Thrift Find of the Year"
Well met!
From a while back (see big bold below): kolakoski worthless thread clother Join Date: July 15, 2008 Location: USA - NY - NYC Posts: 2,573 Re: Rate the Collection Above You Well met! [I'm only posting here to bump, at least momentarily, that stupid "wish" thread (in which I have as many posts as anyone) from the top of the Discussion !] Wow, Bolo, you can host a tournament on your own hook! If I had that much 'scape, we'd have to get a new place, and we already have a 3-bedroom apartment. Fortunately, chas has even more than you do , so I can just go to his place if I want to play on a 4' x 4' x 4' map. Compared to what you have, I would not call what I have a "collection," but I'm certainly not suffering from missed-'scape cramps, to mangle a metaphor. I have 2 RotV (minus most of the grass and who knows what else from one in the hoard referenced below, while the other I recently got from Goodwill online for $30 including shipping ), 1 SotM (plus a lot of stuff from another), 1 D&D, 1 Marvel, and most of the pre-D&D heroes in the game, with a few notable exceptions (Skahen, Gurei, Zelrig), and a number of single squads, some rare. I recently traded away my only set of Aubriens + [I forget] for 2 squads of Heavy Gruts. Most of the units and terrain were garnered when a friend of chas' gave up the game and gave his hoard to chas, who generously sold it to me for $40! I subsequently bought Romans and Orcs from Wave 1, so I'd have some multiples of squads, and have bought quite a bit of D1, D2, and D3 'scape (but not all, by any means) in group buys with the Gang of Four, as well as a few units from Auggies and sale packs from HouseMouse (3 Brutes ). |

I was pretty excited last month when I bought a complete ROTV at Salvation Army for $15, but the $5 deal today blew that one away, particularly with the ... (wait for it) sparkly water! I find that I am turning into a hoarder because both those sets are sitting in their boxes and likely won't join the rest of the collection in my rubbermaid/plano warehouse. I gave away several ROTV sets of figures to kids in the neighborhood last summer/fall, but now I'm working to squirrel away some unopened stuff, along with a few things that are complete in their boxes. I'm not sure when the game evolved into an obsession, but apparently it has. At least I'll be prepared to play Heroscape when the apocalypse comes. |

Re: "Thrift Find of the Year"
Yup. I have a sealed RotV and the Kid has a sealed SotM he won at a tournament, so we have a stash, too.
One day I'm going to give the RotV to his kid (don't tell him ). |

Re: "Thrift Find of the Year"
It's sad really. I think I have ~10 sets of RotV terrain and one each NIB of the master sets and terrain expansions in a box in storage. Good news is, while we were looking at castles online (thanks to a thread here) for inspiration, my daughter told me she would like to build something huge. Then I showed her some of Weird's maps and she said "like that". It might be time.
