@evilstu : lack of any terrain was why I backed the habblock kickstarter … so with that and the cardboard terrain I got from the battlesystems kickstarter I can probably build a spacehulk and the town it crashed in 😉

Which kind of gives me the opposite problem : not enough storage/display space. *eep*

I’ve also completed the pledgemanager for Anno Domini 1666 and some of the stuff in there should fit in the Carnevale universe.
At least depending on actual size of the miniatures when that thing ships.

I reckon I can fill two rooms with hobby stuff if I unpacked everything *grin*
I am totally not suffering from ‘shiny syndrom’ … LOL

The gift shopping usually sorts itself out, but I would prefer it to not be so last-minute.
And the little ones have been happy with the gifts they’ve gotten so far. So I’m doing my part as a god parent by spoiling them.
Need to think of ways and means to get them into this hobby. The oldest one is just about the right age for 40k … but I’m not sure if he likes building stuff.

@evilstu : gift registers ? that wouldn’t work for my parents as they literally say that they don’t want or need anything.
I am also unaware of any such things existing in my region (it would have to be in Dutch).

I usually try to get them to make lists of stuff and then the rest of us decide who buys what.

Because the lists tend to be 2 or 3 items it’s not much of a surprise and thinking outside of the box is tricky.
