Overwhelmed is a good way to describe ...Hi Robbie,<br /><br />Overwhelmed is a good way to describe this but I think my issue has been more about the best way to offload the figures. I agree completely with what you have said and am confident that I can find eventually sufficient gamers that will be happy to take on the Minifigs element. It will certainly be easier to dispose of the other, more modern ranges though.<br /><br />I would happily use Minifigs for my own games as I primarily game solitaire anyway so the choice of figures I use is of less importance. If they are all Minfigs that is not a problem.<br /><br />I have a cunning plan anyway which i shall post about tomorrow.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DC David Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-17950523900253016972019-03-05T16:25:18.939+00:002019-03-05T16:25:18.939+00:00I get the impression David that you are a bit over...I get the impression David that you are a bit overwhelmed by the inherited lead mountain. Wargamers who started in the 1960's and 1970's will understand where Eric was coming from as regards his immense collection of unpainted figures. It was a grand obsession which if we had the disposable income would simply buy to fulfill the desire. The problem is the fact that the figures will be viewed by the gaming majority as 'old school' and in the main wont be of use to them. Its just the way things are sadly where new ie Perry, Warlord, Front Rank etc are viewed as desirable whilst older figures are exactly that. Dont be disheartened, Im certain that there are still wargamers of a certain age who want these older figures to perhaps fill out their collections.
