Have to admit, that's extremely pricey for some poorly made mini's.

Actually, $15 us = $22.75 AU, and $27 au = $17.80
Just in case you wanted to know...


Also, the Baby Ogryn reference is also in the 3rd edition codex: Page 3.

Im sorry but i have seen many people who forget stuff like conversion rates and then start whining about them being worse off.
It really annoys me is an understatement

Yupp, that's the reason I don't play them.  ::)

Didn't we have a thread some time ago about how to convert your own ogryns. Some pretty good ideas there. Maybe someone could start a new similar thread.

Thoughts of hate and anger fill my soul
The charred remains of the holy rollers
Scream repentance though it's far too late
The mask of hypocrisy is slowly unveiled
