1: Which OOP box set or miniature do you miss most? Maybe it's something that was very versatile for army building or just a cool kit that you wished was still on shelves.
2: Which current kit would you miss the most if it went OOP next week? We all know this could happen at any moment...which kit would you be most upset to hear "_______is now unavailable".

1. Same; 6th edition puffy sleeve state troops, or even 7th (or were they the same? I can't remember). I loved them as well.
2. Empire militia. I'm a huge empire fan, and this box set is just awesome; not only for the militia itself, but it's a GREAT resource for almost anything else. All the extra bits means it's easy to buy up several and create all manner of state troops, mercenaries, or militias with some character and unique appearance.

1. 6th edition dwarf plastic kit. This kit made dwarf warriors with great weapons, handweapons/shields or crossbows. I personally like this kit better than the current dwarf warrior kit.
2. Skaven doomwheel. I really like this kit but haven't got myself one yet.

1. Battle for Skull Pass (7th edition boxed set). This was the first boxed set that included plastics that weren't of inferior quality -- at least not the Night Goblins. Fortunately people still sell them fairly cheap from time to time.
2. Forge World Chaos Dwarfs. Not really a set but the whole range. It's an army I've been wanting to do for a while, but the time just hasn't been right yet. And I'm not buying a $1,000 army 'just in case'. If it's still there when the time is right I'll do it. If not, sad panda.

1. I'm gonna say the Warhammer buildingings, in particular Skullvane Manse as that thing looks awesome and I never managed to pick one up, now they are crazy expensive on ebay.
2. I'm gonna cheat here and say the Battalion box (for every army). While they still exist you can still pretty much build any army.

1. I don't even have to think about this one - Teutogen Guard box. I have been SOOOOOO disappointed that they have not re-released or made a new set of these. They are all crazy expensive on eBay (something around $20-$25 PER MODEL!), fit my army theme to a tee, and are one of the main reasons I started collecting Empire. I have 16 of them and I keep losing bids for them on eBay. I guess I'm just not willing to part with $100-$200 for a unit of 10 guys.
2. Oooo - this is a hard one. I'd have to say it'd have to be the newer stuff that has been released in the past year or two. If I haven't had much time to collect something in adequate amounts, then I'll feel cheated.

1. 6th edition Dwarf kit. It was plain awesome.
Honorable Mentioned goes to the old Anvil of Doom on wheels
2. Ogre Ironguts. I could always use more and the extras go far.
Honorable Mention to anything in the Daemon range, although 40k will save me there.

After we discussed this set this weekend, I found like 4 of these! The old white plastic Wood Elf bowmen. So cool. Such a good deal. ValueTown!

It took GW like 20 years to make a plastic skaven better than those.
