Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

Weird is absolutely correct, Master Archer. I shall have to reduce the amount of mushroom that I put in the scrumpy. It's obviously having a detrimental effect on those who imbibe more than the recommended daily dose.

Huoommmrhuoommmm ... sorry, but I cannot take part in your experiences neither in the effect of some liquids provided here ... rhuoommm ... nor in those strange reactions they might cause .. I'll better stick to a bowl of that clear-clean-watery liquid ... rhuoomm ...

Actually, it's rats AND mushrooms in the scrumpy. I also toss in the odd apple from time to time, but not too many - I wouldn't want to spoil the flavour.

As for the Mithril recall, the email reads:

"Due to the uneven quality of the last release of Helms Deep figures we have decided to offer anyone who is not happy with the quality of the figures to exchange it for a new figure. We are very sorry for this lapse in our quality control and the inconvenience for our customers. These quality issues are now sorted out and we will underwrite any Mithril figure to have the highest quality standard. Any customer who is not happy with the production quality of a figure can return it to us for an exchange."

However, it doesn't mention the MS figures, and is headed "Mithril LOTR Helm's Deep recall" as if only Gamling and his companions are included. Make of that what you will. I remember some comments at the time (about ten days ago) on the lines of "What about the Fellowship figures?"

As yet I don't know if Mithril have been approached regarding custard-covered GF figures. Has anyone tried?

Rhhuooommhuommm ... I am aware of that 'recall-offer', Master Twrich ... but it doesn't interest me as by now I managed to assemble and reprime those Trolls ... rhuomm ... well, and that 'recall' just refers to them Gamling party ... huommm ...
As for your query, Master Barliman, huoommm ... yes, someone took steps to approach Mithril concerning that what you call 'custard-covered' figures ... huoommm ... indeed that was done some weeks ago, though indirectly, so to say, as The Man was informed first ... rhuoommmm.... then someone was very much surprised learning that The Man was not aware at all about that problem ... huoommm ... not at all, I said ... hom ... that same Man took immediate action on that matter ... rhuoommm ... a bit surprised he seemed to be as he did not receive any primed figures from the Company ... huoommmm ... someone contacted him because someone really doesn't want to see them upcoming Dwarves being spoiled with that slimy stuff .... huoom ..
as for your question, Master Rita.de, yes I could provide some advice about that 'green stuff' ... huoommmm ... though I have to mention that that material was provided by a company I do not like to mention here ... rhuoommmm .... what I really do prefer is that the Company (those Irish lads, I mean) would provide more of that smooth 'metal-stuff' that was delivered with the MB62 box ... rhuoommm ... that was much more better than that 'green stuff' ... huoommm ... one or two years ago I suggested to have it offered again for coping with some problems in assembling parts of figures ... huoommm ... it worked so well once ... huoommm ... so far no one listened to me ... alas ... rhuoommm ... talkative I was again ... anyway ... I hope it doesn't matter .... hom

Huoommm ... I have not ... but I can tell that the priming of that MS Bard has definitely been improved ... huom ... the feet and the beak of that thrush can easily be recognized ... huooom

No, just wooden-headed.

Huoommm ... I dunno how that silvery stuff you referred to, Master Rita.de, was once called ... rhuoommm ... though I'm sure we're talking about the same good old thing ... rhuooommm ...
in those good old days you referred to it wasn't necessary to mix some blue and yellow paste to become green once being mixed and be ready to play with some modelling clay ... rhuoomm...  that was what our Elf would call "La résine verte" .... anyway that what you call "Silver Stuff" was much more better ... rhuoommm ... though you always had to keep it closed from air ... rhuommm ...
Just to be honest, Master Rita.de, I do have no contact to any Dwarves at the moment ... though I will try .... rhuommm ... huom ...hom ... there was a double L in that name, wasn't it? ... I'm not sure about this .... huooommmmrhuooommm

I use Milliput. Much easier to use than the stuff from 'the-company-that-shall-not-be-named'. Ideally it should be left to go 'off' just a little (for a few minutes) before you try to do anything really clever with it, otherwise it can have a tendency to 'tear'.

Have you asked Mithril if they can provide details of who manufactured it? You never know, it might still be in production.

Indeed, odd numbers for the new figures: MS530 "Celebrian" and MS532 "Durin VI". Have booked references 520-529 for the next serie-M? Will it appear so fast? In the month of August? Or is the new serie-MX ?......
¿And the reference 531 was "reserved "?..... Too many questions ..... a very cold beer, please ......

Well, I've used various types of uhm, green stuff, and while I've never used kneadite, the GW green stuff is the best I've come across. That's the annoying thing about a lot of GW accessories. They are expensive, you find yourself supporting the other crap they pull, but the thing itself is pretty good.

Be warned, however, that Vallejo spray paint eats into green stuff of most varieties. The Citadel spray paint does not.

And, in other news, the realtor/estate agent/whatever bloke left about an hour ago, and we now have a sign on our lawn saying FOR SALE.

Of course there's still a bunch of small tasks to do, not least of which involves scrubbing excess tile grout off the bathroom floor and hacking up paint chips, but still...

Master Erchamion is always the very first recognizing the new brilliant treasures from the beloved company . . .
That Lady is so wonderful aristocratic . . . speechless.

Sorry to come back to the point that bothers the Tree . . .
Oh yes, it was miLLiput ! Absolutely. Thank you Wendy for your explenation how to use it.
Master Barliman you wrote: " Ideally it should be left to go 'off' just a little (for a few minutes) before you try to do anything"
That reminds me a bit of preparing italian pasta-paste! That one should rest as well, not in peace but for a while . . .

Also a very cold beer for me,please, famous Innkeaper.

The fault lies rather in our English friends, if you may me say so. They removed the question of the beginning of the sentence ....  I just sometimes I forget that detail ....
