Darn. Heh. I suppose I don't need those *now*. After all, I have eight other minis to buy, convert, and paint for the list as it is.

As long as we're just throwing ideas around; Götterdämmerung

If the Vandal gets announced with variant parts I don't know what I'll do, but it will be spectacular!  :D

Argh! Darn you and your infernal knowledge!

Actually this is kinda fun. I'm sure I'll facepalm when the announcement is made but speculation is entertaining.

If it makes the Vandal with variant parts (or multiple Vandals) happen I will do whatever your twisted minds can fathom...

But I'll still judge you for it  :P
