Hotlead 2014

Hotlead 2014

    I was at Hotlead's 20th anniversary convention, and for the first time in many years did not run or help run a game, I was going just to buy, and did I.

$220 worth of purchases

Vendor Purchases

 

 

Bring and Buy Purchases

$3 a piece

$2

$15, ouch, But really need Soviet trucks.

$2.  I Just saw the original Store price on the side, I would not have paid $35.

$2.  I probably will never use it in a game but at that price

When I checked my mailbox today, I saw a package had arrived.

I opened it up and found these therein:

boxes a bit crushed, but contets fine.

I was suprised to find they are snap together,I'll glue em anyway.

I have a box of Plastic Soldier Company's Soviet Heavy Weapons, but the machine gun pose looks funny, a guy sitting behind the gun, and no loader, the Italeri(ESCI) set has a loader, but he is loading from the wrong side.

The Zvezda figs are expensive @ $3 per team, but as they will be my last Soviet Infantry purchase (except maybe some HAT Soviet Tank riders) for a long time I felt like splurging.
