Since it has been a few months since my last, futile attempt to track down hard to get Epic minis, I thought I'd clutter this forum yet again with a totally hopeless "I want these" post.
On the plus side, with the recent discussions going on, my list has actually increased in size, so you may at least get a few laughs on me.
Here we go:
Eldar US archive vehicle variants
Eldar Exodites
Psi-Titan
Imperial Dropship
Leman Russ Recovery vehicle
MKI and MKII great gargants
AT-era small metal minis (metal marines, bikes and jet bikes, and everything ork and eldar).
If you have any spares lying around (HA!), let me know how much (or what) do you want for them and we may be able to reach an agreement.

Those are hard to find Magnus but here goes
there is a part cannon of the psi cannon here
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Warhamm....iewItem
The exodites were on and off ebay and when I last spotted them I had forgotten to bid on them. To my dismay especially when I could have won them several sets went for 6 pounds and then a set of 3 for 20 pounds and I had forgotten all!
Unfortunately for the dropship I think I only have two so I cant help there. L4 helped me buy them via U.S. MO and it cost a bomb
Leman russ recovery vehicle: Rather rare but does come up every now and again on ebay. Thats where I found mine, sometimes listed as IG metal or leman russ models, but suffice to say its normally not written up correctly so can be easily missed
MK1 and MK2 resin gargants I assume: those hardly appear now and when they did I had snapped them up but that was ages ago. I know I have a few but I prize them like treasure so not willing to let go of those I am afraid. These I managed to get for around 50 pounds each and the master was quite a bit more. Sorry about that
metal miniatures
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws....MEBI:IT
this link is to an auction I have bid on though losing for the moment. Its finishing in 9 hours and maybe you could bid and I wait at the side lines.
I do have more of these and so long as you are after say one of each pose I may be able to help.

Metal bits: yep, one of each would suffice. I do own a few of those already and with time maybe I'll build a couple of stands, but that is a very low priority; I'd be pretty much set with one of each.
Resin gargants: you have the master of those??? 
Wow, congrats.
Are the figures you cited in the other thread correct? Are you sure you did not forget a "0" somewhere... 
There really is one model of which only 10 copies were ever done? If yes, that has to be the rarest of all Epic models (barring unique pieces like the ones in your collection).
Psi-titan: thanks for the heads-up. I'll take a look on that auction; unfortunately, even should I win it, I would still be missing the other pieces... and the chanche of finding them is smaller than the chanche to find another psi-titan. Of course, the difference in price could well be worth the risk.
Since we're at it: could you provide a list of all the different AT-era metal pieces (including different poses etc.)? A list and pictures would be great, but I'll settle for just the list. I need all the info I can get to complete the books, and finding info on those older models is difficult.

yep I was really lucky there, the left hand gargant is a sculpt with green stuff and bits of piping here and there. A rather surprising find.
Nope I didnt miss a 0 as GW half way through apparently decided not to continue with the order and only 10 managed to get out the front door so to speak. Which one though I cant remember.
As for the rarest its gotta be the pre released Warlords, there were only 6 painted for the photos done to advertise adeptus titanicus and obviously the sculpts themselves. The warlords were metal unlike the plastic ones and getting your hands on those would be a great achievement
The metal marines auction will you bid on that because there seem to be a few decent number of poses there.
I dont want to sound like a hoarder but if you have some I would rather fill in the gaps and then at least you have one of each. I too am hoping to get some squads out of what I have but I know what its like to be trying to collect some and not get any.
As for the pics I can do that, but I have only just started organising stuff so I will try and keep the pictures flowing. Though I am away from Saturday for a week in Spain.
