Surprise arrivals...

By CaptainBoxman, in X-Wing

Well, I got my core set at the weekend, and a YT-1300 I picked up from a local bookshop.

Today, I got my B-Wings! Oddly there was a second package.....oh crap! It's a second core set I got sent by accident :wacko:

I'm not sure whether this is awesome or not. If they don't ask for it, I might try and use it to get another friend into X-wing

Getting 2 core sets is almost necessary for a single collection. 3 dice are never enough, and you get 4 ties and 2 x-wings for relatively cheap.

You would have gotten a second core set anyways. Everyone does eventually.

..at least one extra :3

I didn't want to overwhelm him. Who needs three cores anyways? *looks sheepishly at his three core boxes...*

ER.. not me..... hides the extra box.

I've only got two...for the time being...mainly because of financial reasons...

...I only have 2
The third box belongs to my Fiance's kid....
What's that you say? Why is his set mixed in with mine?
To... um... keep it safe of course....

You need 3 core sets, amongst other things, to make most of a TIE swarm.

My name is Viceroy, and I have an addiction to core sets. ["Hello Viceroy"]

Wait, this isn't a 3 core set support group?

Don't judge me man, I was weak.

I bet that FFG would be glad to know, in case there were duplicate POs printed for other orders too. That could end up costing them a lot of time and money.

All ya'll complaining about your 3 core sets... pff... I don't have 3. I obviously don't have a problem. Whats that you ask? How many do I have... Well, not three, that's for sure. And I never had three! I went straight over it from 2 to 4. Though to be fair, I bought #3 and #4 at the same Target for 12 bucks each. I now have 9 TIEs and 5 X wings... Muwhahahaha!

You have a serious problem. This group is not right for you. The panel advises therapy.

Luckily, I'm a psychologist....

How in the world did you get them for $12 each?!? That's less than I paid for each expansion!

A couple Target stores had them marked down to $12 each. At that price I know I would of picked up another one or 2...

Apparently I'm odd, because I only have 2. I bought 2 X-Wing and 4 Tie Fighter xpacks.

Aye, awhile back select target stores had them clearanced for 20 bucks, and then a few weeks later 12 dollars. I went driving around all of SE Michigan looking for a Target that had them clearanced and in stock. Ended up finding 4 at the Southfield Target, but that was like... 3 months ago...

I'm still waiting for the remaining Targets to put them on clearance... I might buy some more just so I can paint more X wings. Who knows, maybe by the time I'm done painting all of these ships, they'll start to look decent?

I have 4 core boxes, but in my defense one belongs to my son.

That's a pretty weak defense . Roll 1 agility for your tongue.

Raises hand... Guilty, I have 3.... But really its cheaper than buying 3 ships...

It is.. I need to check my local targets I guess.. lol.. could use 2 more X-Wings, and the 4 TIE fighters would just be gravy

As long as we're all confessing how many core sets we all have, I will confess that I only have 1.

So if you ever hear about any of the local Targets selling those puppies on clearance again, Khyros, please let me know!

I must admit that I will be treading that dark path soon enough. I currently own two Core sets...Yet, I feel the need to buy a third one...

Three?, I find your lack of starter boxes.....Disturbing. I just got five (5) from miniature market to go with my three(3) that I had from before.

Although I did it so that I would have enough to run the death star table at an upcoming event, and not have to borrow from every one I knew.

(17 TIEs, 1 TIE Adv, 9 X-Wings, 3 Y-Wings, and the Millenium Falcon)

Since I now have 4 TIEs that I didn't think I would have before, I'm considering picking up a Firespray.

I've got a fairly reasonable idea about what to do with Rebel squadrons now, but how would I set up the Firespray and TIEs?
