Great news looking forward to getting my aircraft back in the air:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Peg requests have always buffled me. How come, old chaps? If you own at least 10-20 original minis with 4 pegs each how can you miss any?
Interchange them, what the problem, my Goodness? Do you host 10+ player games? How often? I have ziliards of pegs!
I'm the same way, Andy - I have plenty of pegs for normal gaming, and even for converting some to magnets. Now, if I were ever to sell off planes and need 4 per plane, it might be iffy...but for normal playing purposes, I never have problems with pegs. I even sent a couple of new folks a bag of pegs about a year ago...
All the best,
Matt

If you convert some of them into magnet holders (which may or may not work every time; I don't want to glue the balls to the mini so I have to cut the pegs to make it work) and play with fly higher rules, you get pretty thin pretty quick (I love the optics of high flying planes over my self-made clouds which hang around 4-8 pegs). I think I would order at least 100 pegs.Quote:

And you all are right - if you are cutting pegs to make them into magnets/bearings, it does take away from your stock of them. It is a shame that pegs are not a regular-stock item to the point where whoever needs however many can get them...
All the best,

I've bought multiple bags of pegs when available, but have sold them/given them all to fellow 'Dromers, so will need to get some more when they are reprinted.
Two bags of 50 went on ebay uk last week, for £24.12, plus shipping :eek::eek::eek:
Someone was desperate...................
How many do you need? I have a bag mostly going spare.
Just curious...how much is a zilliard?
And is it a metric zilliard or an imperial zilliard?Quote:

A minute later, I recieved another mail:Quote:
Dear fekix, thank you, please check our upcoming page at http://www.aresgames.eu/upcoming-products Thank you
I'm not sure about the second mail because they called me John so I think it might be a mistake...Quote:
Dear John, it should be in shops in the next few days. Thank you
Need pegs, but need the bomber ones for my AIM HE 111's. I think that would be a useful item to restock. Everyone has skads of fighter pegs, but the bombers were rarer and hard to get.
ebay UK has a bag of 50 fighter pegs, currently running @ £14!!!!! :eek:
still a couple of days to go...……………………………….
Sold for £20, one bag!!Quote:

They're not very big and with a supply like that tucked away, you'll be in good shape for going down the Shapeways / 3D printing rabbit hole, or doing magnets, or helping out a fellow gamer, etc. All good things!
I've had very good luck finding various odds and ends by posting up in the for sale and wanted forums here. Good luck!

Worked for me last time - I aim to repeat the exercise.Quote:

Thanks Herr Oberst! :thankyou:

Those went fast! I've just placed an order for more from Ares.
No kidding. I notice I can pre-order the bomber pegs. I would like to put in a combined order for both but want to avoid a Weber / Fonck problem.Quote:

Wow, those really did go fast. I bought a bag of scout sized pegs a few years ago, but effectively used them up swapping them with ones from other planes to get a set of 4 pegs for each that fit snugly. Pretty much all that's left over are those that don't fit snugly. (Too loose due to slightly undersized pegs or slightly oversized holes (probably within the manufacturing tolerances, but just barely and enough to cause a loose fit.))
They are back in stock!!
Yes! Thank you :sAprvd:
Any news on when bomber pegs will land?Quote:
