    As long as it's less than 3 figures, then it's all fine, right?

    123 WWI with 3 duplicates.
    One before I started recording them all in a spreadsheet, and 2 because I bought the two Nieuport 16 online before my son gave me both balloon sets for my birthday last year.
    2 Giants on the way ...


    Most of them are still unopened in the original box

    Why waste money on rehab Per, when you can spend it on more planes.

    Would you believe... less than 4 figures? Counting just the WWI stuff, of course.
    Shapeways makes less than 300 different WWI models anyway.

    It was a general statement Per not directed at you specifically. I know that both you and I are way past that point.
    In answer to the poll question,I can only say more planes than I had before I visited Triples this weekend and leave it at that.

    After taking the plunch into the deep sea of Shapeways, I am a lost case for any type of rehab

    I have only the decals left on my first batch but there are already fresh ones in the pipeline

    I have been collecting WGS since February 2015 and have just found out that I am eligible to join WoW Anonymous! Now in the process of turning my attention towards Wings of War WW2 Miniatures whenever I can find them available for reasonable sale prices.

    I'm slowly getting ready for Origins. Here is some shots of the planes I have. I will try to get a count to ya all real soon.

    Still putting some out. I think I need help.

    Tom, something must be wrong with your camera or the collection you are showing... I see no hint of the planes with the BOOM cards you seem to enjoy collecting...I know for a fact there are at least a couple of score of those urging in your collection somewhere. What gives...no smoke, no fire, these all seem eerily healthy for planes in your livery? Better check your photo list Cappy!

    Yep and I still have to go through all the cards to make sure none are mixed up. Each game day some get mixed with other decks. But I still have time. Plus I want to do an inventory of them.

    That is a truly impressive mass of flying machines, Tom! I look forward to seeing some at Origins If my wife ever complains about the number of planes I have, I'll call up this thread and show her how bad I am not...

    AMAZING!

    Eric, the Wet Side claimed me at Origins when I picked up two Spanish SoG ships... And the Dark Side is still calling my name - it won't be long until WW2 begins infiltrating my beloved WWI collection (which is close to a modest 100-plane level right now...)

    I THINK I HAVE A PROBLEM.

    I have as many planes as the planes you see above but not all are German. And they are all WW2, and owned by my brothers and I.

    70 Wow with 5 more inbound. 2 valom.
    I recognise I have a problem... it's future storage issues!

  42. #592

    My answer now has to be too many.
    Before the usual outcry of you can never have too many, let me justify my statement.
    I am now in a situation that when I want a game set in a certain time frame it takes an hour of searching through my boxes to find a balanced mix and match of aircraft.

    Well as for planes I'm in the 41 plus category -- but if you are counting all periods of wargaming (Ancients, AWI, ACW, Colonials, WW II, F&IW, etc.) I am in the thousands...yes, yes, its an addiction I suppose....
