Mike Brooks: Is there any better feeling in hobbying than when you look at a thirty year-old sprue and go “I should probably get rid of this, I’m never going to need three 1992 stockless lasguns” but then you don’t and then a couple of years later THAT’S EXACTLY THE BIT YOU NEED?

Please see below😁

This plastic Squat (not Votann, SQUAT) is damn well getting an era-appropriate weapon!

So THAT'S why you needed the 30 year old lasgun sprue parts!

As it should! With the added bonus of reducing plastic waste!😋

Every now and again I find myself in the former situation and compromise by taking the parts off the sprue and keeping them in a little bag or tin or something until the inevitable latter situation. Apropos, does anyone know if GW's sprue-recycling programme accepts the ones from the RTB01 set...?

three of these were made around 2003 or so, and two i did just before 10th came out (the two far rightmost)
