Shopping for SoV/C3V minis

Quoting a post from the C3V Minis thread...

Sweet stuff! One small issue.... you can't find these guys available anywhere. They're always sold out... or go for a ridiculous price.

I think the Confrontation figures are absolutely beautiful, and fit Heroscape perfectly. But... they're too expensive and difficult to find in stock.

I know, I know, someone is going to say, that's why we release the figures so early. So you can get them as soon as we reveal the new figures. Yet... with the prices so high, I want to see the cards BEFORE I purchase them, just so I can see if I really want them. Am I alone here?

Please don't get me wrong, I don't want to complain and sound ungrateful. I'm so excited about the C3V projects. Awesome stuff! But...

I don't know if they would be considered "plentiful" but here are the 2 boxes in stock at decent prices.

Miniature Market
Confrontation Starter Set $21.00, 94 in stock
Looks like 3 common Spearmen squads and 1 Wolfen Hero and 1 Wolfen Squad. (2+ Heroscape boosters)

Confrontation Wolfen Army Box $30.00, 29 28 in stock
Looks like 3 Unique Wolfen Squads, 2x Common Squad, and 2 Heroes plus some nice LOS blocker terrain. (~3 Heroscape boosters)

I spotted the Age of Ragnarok starter box at my FLGS. Not a good price, mind you, but it was there. Might be able to talk them down if you don't want to just buy it from MM, or have some other reason to buy it offline. Legends Comics & Games in Cupertino.
 
There is one more RPG Kolossus Unit Box here. $15. It's the only place I've been able to find any Kolossus Unit Boxes. They are quite similar (though not identical) to the Strielitz Kolossus Unit Box. Their weapons are just slightly different.

Hopefully they will be approved as proxies. If not, I will use them in casual play as proxies anyway!

Fantasy Flight has the Strielitz version (http://store.fantasyflightgames.com/productdetails.cfm?SKU=ATR18), but it's $30 plus shipping. I bought the Spetsnaz version from the site Nirek referenced above because it was just $15.
 
I found this lot on eBay. Looks like enough for 9 squads. I've put a bid in on it. If I should win, I'll keep one squad and offer the rest here at cost.

Edit: though I wouldn't hold my breath. People often overpay for AT-43 on eBay like they do for Heroscape.
 
First off, I didn't win the lot of Kolossus :sad:.

Second, Miniature Market is having a Black Friday event that starts at 12:01 am Central Time. Some of the relevant highlights: Wolfen Army Box for about $21, Ram Army Box for about $50, Guide Darius for about $3 and the Therians used for the Havech Eradicators for about $7 (2 squads in a box). There's a link to download the whole list of sale prices.
 
Sorry for the triple post, but I just saw this link posted in another thread. FFG is having a sale. Included in the sale are the Kolossus figures for $6.00. I believe they have the Therians, too. The shipping is a little high, but I ordered a total of 3 AT-43 and Confrontation unit boxes. With shipping included, they were less than $10 each.

Here were the relevant units as far as I could tell:

Unit Box: Strielitz Kolossus
ISBN:3661116096317 Product: ATR18

Unit Box: Storm Golems
ISBN:3661116090056 Product: ATT10

Unit Box: Spearmen
ISBN:3661116097055 Product: COG05

Confrontation Starter Set: Age of RagNarok
ISBN:3661116096898 Product: COX02
 
Yep, the FF Sale is always great. I've stocked up on Confrontation and AT-43 minis each of the last two sales. The shipping is on the high side, but if you order enough it evens out, especially considering the original retail.
 
Would love to buy a few items on FFG but the items I want ( wolf/grif starter set $9, 2 hunter attachment box $5x2 and a tracker box $5 ) are $24 and shipping is $37???

Ouch cant do
 
We just want to announce that C3V will be using the Scorpion minis from the Confrontation game for a future 4-figure squad, so people may want to take advantage of the Fantasy Flight sale by picking those up as well.

The four types of figures are: Clones, Crossbowmen, Sentinels and Skorize. One or more of those types will be pictured on the C3V card, but they are all similar enough to each other to serve as excellent proxies.

The same minis are also available at Miniature Market.

Thanks!

In the AT-43 section, they also have the Storm Golems and orange Mechiborg fellows. The Age of Confrontration starter set is also $9!!!
 
Strielitz Kolossus for $11.34 ($5.95 + $5.39 shipping) on eBay. I have purchased from this seller and they are reliable. Check their other items for sale. They have Scorpion Crossbowmen and Sentinels, Griffin Spearmen, and Wolfen units too for good prices. They will also give decent combined shipping rates for multiple purchases.
 
I have a bunch of C3V stuff available also, including Strielitz Kolossus, Storm Golems, the Wolfen Army Box and the Confrontation Starter Set. I'm happy to trade or sell outright via paypal.

(I ended up with extras from a group purchase, so all I'm looking for is to cover my actual cost. See my trade link below if interested.)

Thanks!

The pic I saw wasn't great, but from the looks of them they'll make excellent Valkrill units.
