There's a large number of folks offering various items on this Facebook page. Some are for trades, some for sale - mixed bag and I think a few of the forum folks there as well. I'm not that interested in picking up anything but Martians and frankly I've got plenty to work with for a long time to come - with the exception of a Royal Scientist and some easy to 'fudge' Ragers, there's not alot needed with the new companies (Slave2Gaming, BlackHat, ConquerorMinis) filling the void. Of some interest on that site was a fellow doing 6mm stuff - will have to look at that at some point, but Brigade Models 2mm/3mm line will suit my needs. Hmmm Epic 40k vs Martians - the true rebellion that shoked the Empire.

I think that's the most prominent one. I really need to paint what I already have

I managed to get several models I needed via that group yesterday, all from a store in Western Canada: a set of Scout tripods, a Clamp tank, 1 pack of civilians, 1 of Lobototon slicers and a US Command unit.
I've replaced everything Canada Post lost at Christmas except for a Coil gun and 2 packs of Sniper Drones. I hope someone will have those plus a Scientist tripod to sell or trade.

Damn, you never know it might turn up one day... I loved using my pals sniper drones, I had them zipping around with a scout. Anyroad I have none, so maybe I should design/build some, along with the spotter drones, cheers for sparking the idea.

I lucked out on ebay again and got 1 pack of Sniper drones, 1 of Scorpion drones and 2 Coil guns for reasonable prices.
I've got two controller tripods, a Reaper that will have 6 Scorpion drones attached, and a Slaver with 3 units of Lobototons and one of Standard drones. The 3 Snipers will be attached to an Assault or Scout tripod. If I'm able to find a Scientist or convert one from another model it'll have 1 unit of Lobotons and I'll need at least 6 more Standard drones to accompany it.
Other than the one successful transaction mentioned above I've had no replies from most other people selling things on the Facebook site.

I've had my Scotties chew up a few things but no AQotMF stuff! I've put a request in for some of Nick's models.
There've been some very good deals in the past week. I was able to get several units of standard Drones, 9 more of Civilians (so I can run the Harvest scenario which needs 30 stands, though I need to convert/scratchbuild 2 Gatherers), a Downed Tripod + Martian, Energy Pylon, Forlorn Hope teams, 4 US Command Squads, Anti-Tripod gun, and more BEF models including 3 more Mono-tanks.
Some of the stuff was sold in lots so I'll have some extras to sell, including US standard and heavy infantry and HMG teams, and maybe some US Field guns.
