[QUOTE="Olaf the Stout, post: 4604422, member: 13703"] I used to wargame a little bit before I got pre-painted DDM's. I bought both Blood Bowl and Necromunda boxed sets (two of the smaller GW games, you only needed a dozen or so models for each side) when I was in my mid-teens. However, I stopped playing both games about 6-8 years ago as I couldn't find anyone else to play with (my friends lost interest). I bought pre-painted DDM's for the first time a couple of years ago. Since then my collection has grown to over 1,000. I love the pre-painted minis and how easy it makes having the right monsters for the encounter I want to run. However, buying the pre-painted minis has also renewed my love for my wargames and made me want to paint metal minis for my D&D game as well. In the last year I've gotten back into Blood Bowl and I've just bought about 50-odd metal Reaper minis to use in my D&D games. I'll probably buy some pre-painted plastic DDM's in the future but I'll also probably buy some unpainted metal minis as well. I see pre-painted and unpainted minis as complimentary products, rather than just competing products. Olaf the Stout [/QUOTE]
