Glad to know you received it.  I am surprised it made it in time!   I sent a package to my mother the same day I sent yours and it didn't get to her house in Florida until yesterday.   :o

Great little collect vincon!  Are you a DOTA player too?

I am! But the comic is a present for my best friend who is also an avid Dota 2 Player.

I got windroses in the mail (a couple of weeks ago; I forgot to post) from Willem for the spare bits giveaway!

On a side note for my birthday I also got the flying machines!  ;D

I received my advanced copy of Mint Delivery recently, which was possible as I was an "Eager Enthusiast" of their Kickstarter campaign:





As you can see, this prototype game box is shrink-wrapped and signed! So now I'm stuck trying to decide whether I want to keep it in shrink in order to preserve the signature and miss out on any advantage of getting to play it a few months before the majority of people (since I'll be getting a general retail version of it then as well).

I also like that this box is personalised! 8)

Been waiting a while for this gem to show up and finally it arrived today! Got a chance a to try a round of the solo mode this evening and so far I am loving this game. Can't wait to hopefully bring it to the table more this weekend! I backed for the deluxe edition with all available add-ons/expansions and stretch goals.

Dan, that tin is amazing!  The customized back is a really nice touch.  I think you should be able to use a razor to save the signature. Unless you can find someone else called Dan Chard ti sell it to for a reasonable price on eBay.

If it were me, I would totally keep it in shrink and wait for the regular version. That's a bell you just can't un-ring.

New year, new arrivals!
I havent updated recently, but have been receiving!


I ordered some of the Carcassonne boxes from Russia from Hobbyworld, including the 'special' Count of Carcassonne starting tile :)
And i couldnt help myself to some of the coasters :P

And today i received one of the newer Russian Promo tiles. (i can never remember how this one is called).
Found this from a seller in Belgium that said he didnt have the other one of this set to sell, so i was happy with this one :D

Now i can say my old art is complete, except for 1 tile! (How frustrating is that!!)
Ah well, i will keep looking, and will always find something else that i find different enough to purchase (and yes, some are on their way to me already :P )

How were the shipping costs to get them from Hobbyworld? (I've been tempted to order some from them as well.)

shipping costs are pretty high to the UK, thats why i ordered a big pack of several boxes.
i believe it came down to a bit over £30 for the pack i got :)

Hope you get to play those more often than me Dragonlord, haven't play Dwar7s Fall yet.

Received Tao Long Deluxe today. Despite a small tear on the game box overall component quality is amazing.
