Spring Cleaning with Babylon 5

[aqp.accounts]

Would have loved to be able to bid on the Neroon, but by the time I saw this thread it was already out of my price range.

Oh well, back to the original plan of breaking into Mongoose towers and pinching one......

Or find out who actually bought the few that were made before the mold collapsed, then beg them to sell one to you.

 

[darknight]

well i stopped bidding for the pair of them at £100, might throw in one more near the end if they havent got any sillyer

I don't really think begging will do the trick :? Gotta be huge amount of money, or death threats :twisted:

 

[lastbesthope]

Despite all warnings, the T'bolt is well out of sensible money now, ah well.

[andrewgpaul]

If I'm looking correctly, the Gropos auction is for nine Shriek tanks, not three. I'm pretty sure they're three to a blister.

 

[Nightmares about Minbari]

Hey, the physical violence option is always a possibility as my swords haven't come out to play in years, however would prefer to find someone willing to sell one at a reasonable and fair price.

 

[lastbesthope]

Over £50, all things considered I'll rather buy a fleet box.

LBH

 

[Da Boss]

Especially since they are £40.00 now

 

[lastbesthope]

Pretty much my thinking DB.

[Foxmeister]

Neroon went for £360! Holy crap!

Regards,

Dave

 

[MongooseMatt]

Okay guys, well done to all that took part - some of the guys here in the office were getting quite excited towards the end!

We're glad these models will now be going to good homes and seeing some real action.

Now to hunt around the office to find a 'bonus' something for the winner of the Neroon

Next up will be some SST items, mixed with a few other bits and bobs.

 

[Nihm]

by bonus you mean a new Austin Martin to go with it ? :shock:


Sorry "Aston" as Fox has pointed out :lol:

 

[Foxmeister]

Not certain that an "Austin" Martin is particularly desirable. Now if it was an Aston Martin......

Regards,

Dave

 

[Nightmares about Minbari]

Was the buyer american, did he realise he was paying in £?

Gobsmacked!

was involved on a couple of smaller items, but that was insane.

 

[lastbesthope]

Yeah, I noticed the winner of the T'bolt was in the US and thought, he must really want that model. Congratulations whoever you are.

[aqp.accounts]

Okay, which one of you bums got my Neroon?

:evil:

I will find you, and make the offer that can not be refused!!!

Anyway, post Pictures of it please!!!

Thank You
AQP

 

[silashand]

All I will say is some people are just insane. No miniature is worth that much...

Cheers, Gary

 

[Karhedron]

£360 for what I think is a horrid model, and a rather lacking Armageddon level ship... guess a fool and their money do part easily.

£360 for a unique ship painted to a display standard by a professional painter. Value (like beauty) is in the eye of the beholder. I would have paid good money for that model but I just didn't have that much money to spend.

 

[Greg Smith]

I think it is the uniqueness that gives it value, rather than any aesthic appeal or usefulness.

 

[Nightmares about Minbari]

Yeah, unfortunately some of us just wanted the ship to use on the table top and kind of liked the figure. Still, ain't going to happen now.
