So in the combined interest of stream lining my office and getting the house on the Market, I’ve been going through my “collection” and discovered I have a whole lot of CRAP! The following is a list of Items I have found in my office that really has questionable purpose at best.
-Box filled with 2nd Ed 40k plastic Orks and Goblins. Also probably 60 or so ‘Ere We Go era plastic and metal orks.
-Box full of plastic Imperial infantry from the Mutant Chronicles boxed game.
-Decent Collection of for Gorka Morka Orks. Including about 5 Trukks, and 4 or so Bikes. Plus a lot of metal add on bits like ramming bars, weapons, harpoons, and Wrecking Ball. Anyone else remember the grand plan to start playing Gorka Morka about 3 or so years ago
-Necromunda: House Esher box set, and Plastic Goliaths from the Necromunda Box Set. Anyone else remember the grand plan to start playing Necromunda about 3 or so years ago
-About 20 25mm Metal WWII British Heavy Weapon Platoon Paratroopers. From my brief interest in a WWII game about ~8 Years Ago.
-Pre-Battlefleet gothic plastic Eldar Warships, I don’t even remember what game this came from, but they are GW figs.
-Exocet Missiles from an old 1:48 scale Mirage Fighter model (circa 1997)
-Cluster Bombs, 500 pound Iron Bombs, and Maverick Missiles from a 1:48 scale A-10 Warthog model circa 1997)
-Space Ranger Plastic miniatures and heavy weapon Sprues
-Rogue Trader Era Plastic Imperial Marines
-Chainmail: Dark Elf, Dwarf, Gnoll, and Centaur figures
-2/3rds of an Old Skool Imeprial Land Raider. Consisting of both Tracks and the upper Hull, but no weapons)
So I’ve decided it’s time to cull the collection. A fair amount went into the Trash. A lot got combined into new plastic containers, or sorted through and placed in new Bitz Boxes. I’m a firm believer in Bitz Boxes. But occasionally you need to go back and cull through the Bitz Boxes and make sure that you aren’t just carrying around trash.

I know the feeling. I have these plastic Lizardmen which i know won't net me one red cent on eBay, but it hurts to throw these things out.
(But if you threw away a single Escher, I will keel haul you.)
No Eshers were harmed in the making of this blog post. Back in College I sold off ALL of my Dark Angels and 40k Chaos to fund my new gaming habit WARZONE!
We all know where Warzone is at now, and that I have re-invested (moderately) in 40k. Since then I decided I will never trash or sell my final installment of a force for a particular game.
So the Eshers are packed up neatly in their brand new snap top container, easily stored, and ready to pull out should the occasion (and interest) ever present it's self. Just like Gorka Morka.
