IWM Web-only stuff
« on: 11 April 2012, 09:50:36 »
Hi all,

Quick question... everything that appears in the web-only section of the IWM online store (for example, all but one of the protomechs) seem to be sold singly.

Does this mean that the old 5-pack blisters are no longer available?  Are they desirable at all?  I picked up a bunch of them back in the day and never opened them.

Also, is there a good place (other than Bartertown or eBay) to conduct sales/trades of miniatures that someone might recommend?

Thank you,
JR

Yah, they are all generally one miniature as a rule.  Makes it easier to get exactly what you want.

The original protomech 5 packs are archieved. I put them up individually due to heavy use in the wars of reaving also gives people the opportunity to buy odd numbers. You can also go to advanced search and check under unit type protomech and it will bring all protos up.

As far as I know the 5 packs have not reached any level off desirability. Though the packaging isn't used anymore the miniatures themselves are still available.

As for trading/selling etc check out Lords of the Battlefield. A lot of the same people from here are there.

Hope these answer the last of your questions.
