Well, went a little crazy (OK a lot crazy) and bid on and won a great auction on eBay this week.
It was a large collection of the old Citadel Traveller/Striker 15mm figures. This was back a while ago, but at one point they (Citadel) made 15mm figures.
I love the ones I already had and wanted more. Now I will have them.
Here is a shot of the whole collection:

Here is one of the bast parts to this auction, it had Seven of the military sets. That gives me Seven more of the HEavy Weapons and Seven more of the Sgts. Both Figures I was very short on.

But the real fun find here is in this photo.
See the trooper with the Missle Launcher like weapon? That figure was only available in one particular pack. It is one of the most rare of the Citadel 15mm Figures.
This auction has two of them in it.
That gives me three now.

Hi!
Cool stuff Dafrca!
I wish more manufacturers would make 15mm sci-fi.

Primarch | Believe it or not, it is having a renascence of sorts right now. Between a few of the older hold outs (GZG for example) and some new entries, your selections are growing. We are also pushing some of the manufacturers to consider even a minimal release of their stuff in 15mm.
My personal one is the Spugs. I WANT THEM. I touch base once ever couple of months and he has suggested maybe July or so. If he does, I will buy a number of packs just to insure he has sold quite a few right away.

Congrats on the great win Dafrca! I had quite a collection of GZG 15mm and RAFM 15mm Traveller vehicles at one point - think I donated them to my old club when I left

Hi Dafrca,
Mazel Tov!
The Spugs remind me of a certain Traveller race... know which one?
Shabbat Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak.

What can I say, curious is my normal state.
