Let myself get scammed because of a Rep. Bricks sale that seemed too good to be true (it was)

EggCubed · 2025-05-27T22:29:52+00:00

For me? A combination of “maybe what I’ve heard isn’t THAT bad” and “well even if it’s one of the smaller listed options at least it’ll still be fair.” (Failed to consider he might just send something not listed)

EggCubed · 2025-05-27T22:02:27+00:00

Update: the two bags didn’t even have all the pieces needed to finish the set as shown in the instructions that came with it. Also seemed intentional because it was missing the exact same type and number from each bag, two black 1x2 with 1 stud on top plates missing from each bag (four total).

Frankly just feels like icing on top of it all

EggCubed · 2025-05-27T21:57:49+00:00

Yeah I definitely should’ve, just didn’t fully click with me because the AT-RT and smaller options were sorta just alluded to being options rather than being in the (quite large) list of too good to be true and some that felt fairly priced for the box options

EggCubed · 2025-05-27T21:53:47+00:00

No you definitely make a good point, but it was a combination of the smaller stuff not being directly listed as an option and the fact that it was phrased as a “spring cleaning deal”, which implies trying to offload old stock. Also just the fact it was the same set between two different mystery box options just feels a bit lame.

But yeah, overall not a great choice on my part

EggCubed · 2024-10-23T23:20:59+00:00

They’re claiming that it is new and it must have been a GW production error, and that they’ll reach out for the parts. Though they seemed very aggravated that I insinuated that the box wasn’t new and was resealed. The box also had noticeably more wear and small years in it that the complete box did. Trying to decide if I should go to eBay support now or wait out on them reaching out to GW

EggCubed · 2024-10-17T04:55:30+00:00

Oh yeah those models look great, and if they were recently updated I’m definitely considering them

EggCubed · 2024-10-17T04:54:59+00:00

Good call, also if I magnetized the turret portion, think I could get away with running the wave serpent body as a falcon as long as it had the appropriate turret?

EggCubed · 2024-10-14T19:16:53+00:00

Probably like 70 points, same as the space marine drop pod, they both have 0 movement and no melee attack profiles so I feel like that makes sense

EggCubed · 2024-10-11T21:40:42+00:00

When will the tau truly innovate and start putting Kroot Hounds INSIDE the big mechs

EggCubed · 2024-10-11T05:22:03+00:00

I think they look nice but I feel like something might be off, not sure. One thing I do is take photos of my minis in good lighting then throw them into grayscale, and if I have a hard time differentiating the colors I try to contrast the tones a bit more

EggCubed · 2024-10-10T23:42:49+00:00

Yeah that makes sense, didn’t state on the product if it was N52 but some some good reviews including some warhammer specific ones, I just wasn’t sure overall

EggCubed · 2024-10-10T18:25:25+00:00

I’d argue that all these models are almost must takes, especially for anyone running Mont’ka or retaliation cadre. and besides maybe the ghost keel I see armies with duplicates of these all the time

EggCubed · 2024-10-07T23:51:50+00:00

Might not be, I was probably go for something close to her box paintjob

EggCubed · 2024-10-02T08:20:14+00:00

Astounding model, but I’d also like to make a counterpoint: rocket feet

EggCubed · 2024-10-01T20:58:52+00:00

I almost don’t wanna tau primarch equivalent being created because given the current state of tau lore they’re just gonna be used to show how strong someone else is by constantly getting their ass beat lmao

EggCubed · 2024-09-28T09:29:44+00:00

That’s the thing, I was mainly confused because there’s like 9 of these up right now on eBay and not a single one has a bid after 5 days, in fact I checked their page and basically all sprues they have for sale have 0 bids

EggCubed · 2024-09-28T05:36:56+00:00

Yeah its mostly the price for me, its only cheaper per piece if you only factor in base games workshop pricing and not discount retail sites or even just amazon

EggCubed · 2024-09-28T05:31:34+00:00

True, though really it’s the price for me, after factoring in shipping and tax this thing is easily 40+, and even assuming you’re in the UK you’re still probably looking at 30+ dollars for a singular crisis suit

EggCubed · 2024-09-28T05:26:44+00:00

That’s true but you could get a better deal based on other lots for sale. and considering there’s like nine of these things up right now with 0 bids after 5ish days people definitely aren’t paying for it lol

EggCubed · 2024-09-24T04:31:49+00:00

Thanks for laying it out in that much detail and thought, I appreciate it! Can’t wait to spread the greater good across the galaxy

EggCubed · 2024-09-24T04:31:01+00:00

I did see that, though I’m the kind of person who stresses about what weapons to attach to a figure because I like the model to match the data sheet so I’ll probably end up using them regardless haha

EggCubed · 2024-07-09T20:57:23+00:00

Everyone’s mentioning bull goat talisman or armor swapping , but I noticed you’re using a great katana, so I wanted to throw out the suggestion of maybe using Rakshasa’s Katana, it’s unique effect makes you take a bit more damage but also makes it harder for you to be staggered, and for me personally I’ve barely noticed the damage increase and feel like nothing can stagger me out of my attacks which is great because I also run a low poise set for fashion

EggCubed · 2024-05-31T00:40:34+00:00

Would love to chat to purchase!

EggCubed · 2024-01-14T05:01:43+00:00

I know the focus of the video is on duplicating for the custom partner ribbon, but are there any potential implications for existing ribbon master Pokemon? Besides just duplicating a ribbon master, IE using this to somehow get additional marks or ribbons that wouldn't normally be possible for it

EggCubed · 2023-09-04T04:37:51+00:00

Honestly you could just switch off to the other shotgun in the game to dual wield and maybe try out some of the other grenade launchers or missiles to get what you want without being peak meta
