UY 35MM Metal Miniatures

Post by chickrockguitar »

Hey All,

This is a long shot, but does anyone know where I could get any of the UY 35MM Metal Miniatures from Dark Ages?

Also, do we have a place on the Forum for posting Art we get from Stan? You know, to show other members?

Thanks guys!

Chickrockguitar, I like the idea of having a forum devoted to posting original art. I would also like to see pictures of peoples Usagi shrines, think it would be cool to see how people display there treasures. If we wanted to get really in depth we could catalog any dojo members owning original covers or art. Just a thought.

I picked up a complete set at last year's SDCC...but from Stan. I'm assuming you've scoured the internet and turned up nothing?

Not too bad an idea...what does everyone else think? I was thinking we reserve that stuff to the Usagi Yojimbo forum, but if a separate forum is warranted, then maybe we could put something together. Maybe set up a one-topic-per-person system where each topic is actually "gallery" of that member's Sakai art... and then you just add to your own gallery as your collection advances... any thoughts?

I've searched Google a few time. I check every once in a while. And looked on eBay.

What about a separate category on the main index? And members can post when they get a new piece. That way other members can talk about/comment about each piece if they so wish. Just an idea.

I totally think it would be a great idea to have a separate place for us all to post our Stan art. I love looking at what we have all collected and right now it's spread all over the place. I guess I see it as a separate heading but really anything would probably work.

I know a lot of the older Dojo members had set up galleries for their artwork which use to be linked to the main Dojo, but I don't know how many are still active or if the links are still intact.

I think a seperate section of the forum here where Dojo members could display original artwork and other members can comment on it would be cool.

I've been gradually piecing together the 35mm set over time... even Stan couldn't quite fill the gaps. So if anyone has a spare Jotaro, let me know!

I like the idea. Problem is I have to take pics of my art instead of scanning it since I don't have a scanner :(

It's amazing, camera technology. Some are almost as good as scanners...

Now go and try that with a scanner! :wink:
