It's your decision but if I had to choose, I'd go for your second option. <br />A Citadel month would be so cool. I know I slag off GW a lot but they did produce some great figures and games way back in the 1980's and 1990's and I was quite happy to spend a fortune on them. I'd personally love to see some of your old Citadel figures.<br />Thanks for dropping by, Simon. I always appreciate your comments.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-58825846978299366622017-05-23T18:25:36.877+01:002017-05-23T18:25:36.877+01:00Either way, these minis are a great addition to yo...Either way, these minis are a great addition to your "Judge Dredd" collection, Bryan, and fit in seamlessly imho.

Perhaps I should do a "Citadel" month and paint up a few of my really old lead miniatures :-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-25705435336922156982017-05-22T16:23:02.037+01:002017-05-22T16:23:02.037+01:00Ha, ha ha!
