Replica Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 I wish i had have known about that painting competition. I would have loved to have entered it. I enter every competition Ringwood GW hold and take part in the monthly paint club. Have you heard about the Paint club event? Every month someone picks a figure of their choice and every one paints that model for the next competition. The winner gets to pick the next model(which they get for free) and judge the next comp. Good fun. Nah hadent heard about it. I used to work at GW ringwood a while back and used to work with most of the staff there. Sounds like a really cool idea, might have to check it out!

Brother-Sergeant Valen Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Frankston as well here. Primarily game at my local store here in Frankston (Games by the Beach), but am looking to start chasing games in Southland and Melbourne as well.

Aegnor Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 +1 for Realm of Legends. I used to frequently go to GW City, GW Ringwood, and Mindgames in Swanston, and RoL is heaps better than all of them - although Mindgames in the CBD is still the place for BL books (RoL stock some, but not as many).

Pegasus Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Pegasus here. When I last posted I was in Deer Park. I have since gotten married and moved to Epping. Northland theoretically would be my closest store, though I still tend to go to Highpoint because Sevrius goes there. Did anyone on here take part in the massive Apocalypse game at the Highpoint store at 2 am on Christmas eve?

I'm all the way out in the Yarra Valley so i rarely go there. Yeah i know the shop your talking about, in Croydon. Realm of Legends is cheaper than Mindboglers(the shop neer the cinema) and they have a better range as well. Sometimes i buy maxmini pieces and BL books there. Personally i still like to go to GW Ringwood because i enjoy painting in store and i know the guys who work there.

Deansy Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Thought I give a shout out. I'm Deansy, I'm from Melbourne's North (Reservoir) I mostly hang out at the Battle Bunker in Northcote. Wednesday night is the 40K night, you can always get a pick up game. They do stock a lot of non-GW stuff also. They have a solid range of both Warmachine/Hordes and Flames of War. At the moment the big next thing is Dystopian Wars. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/154819-victoria/page/3/#findComment-2633811 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, John I was there, although I wasn't taking part. I'm 16, around 5'8" and have brown hair, slightly fat and IIRC I was wearing a long-sleeved shirt with a grim reaper on it and jeans. That or a button-up shirt. Can't remember. I was hung over. I do remember an extremely tall guy being there though.

SevenExxes Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Hey I live in frankston south.Mind Games doesn't stock warhammer anymore Is that the store on Swanston Street in the City? If so, since when does it not stock WH40k? Or maybe you mean WHF. I'm pretty sure they still stock both. I'm going there tomorrow to pick up some Devastators, Death Company and Grey Knights to kit bash a librarian.

Sister Rosette Soulknyt Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Hey Jamo26, they still stock both WHF and 40k, i go there frequently enough, also if your looking for cheaper prices, take a trip down to Bentliegh, to Military Simulations, they frequently have 20% off 40k stuff. I just picked a large double sized case today for only $125 instead of $165 GW price. Im in Frankston too.

eyescrossed Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 Or, you can order from Wayland Games. I got 2 Dark Eldar Talos/Cronos kits for a dollar less - including postage - than one from Games Workshop.

Aegnor Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Back of the Southern Cross centre - between that and the back of Nauru House - it's on Little Collins. The closest intersection is Russell Street. It's easy to miss if you're not looking for it. If you were looking to buy GW stuff, I don't know why you'd go there rather than Mindgames, apart from the fact that sometimes Mindgames doesn't have stuff in stock. I just go in to browse sometimes to look at the nicely painted minis.
