That's a lot more than I've got, but I know a couple people that have much much more. So addicted, yes. As addicted as others, probably. Just less $$$ to spend.

I havn't broken them down into weight class, but I've got 380 Inner sphere and 125 Clan, with a handfull of tanks, many infantry/BA and a few Aerofighters.... yes it is an addiction.

I own exactly two Btech minis, one of them never assembled. A painted Thunderbolt (unseen) and a Marauder (unseen).

..I said also that all this stuff it was
purchased in...roughly 11 years.
Just I never choose what I want.
I mean:there was a time when in almost
every store in my town you could picked up
some CBT minis than sometimes look around
and took whatever I find.
Just after some year I start to order by
catalog,when discovered a big store(350km
far)but def. satisfying.
Right now instead is became hard to
get this stuff.
I must wait till 2 month and more for receive
the spedition,after the order.
Is impossible to find minis in the store(dark age is an ecception..damn it) and all that
discourage newby.
PS
I got also many vehicle,many tracked,
2 company hover,some wheel.and I
self made some flat bed.

Here in the States you can get just about anything. Every gaming store carries stuff and if they don't you can order it special and have it within a couple weeks usually.

I have heard that places oversea can be sometimes very difficult to find what you're looking for. It would appear Italy is one of those places.

I have around 200 units (mixed is/clan , mech vehicle). I have a friend that at last count has 3 Batallions of IS and 2 Glalxies of Clan, he also has 1 batallion of aerospace. Another friend of mine has roughly the same amount if not more he collects 3 or 4 every paycheck. I ended up painting around half of it for him because it was poorly painted originally by is sister. (really ugly enamle paint mechs with silver arms, yellow legs blue torsos and orange heads.)

With that paint job, either a 6 year old or drugs must have been involved. I can understand why you re-painted them.

Nightmare, I'll me more than happy to alleviate you of the weight of those minis

(still looking for a volunteer for the cloning of a Marauder )

I don't know how much junk I have.. about 60+ minis, all of them IS 3025 , plus a couple odd ones like an Owens and that one that looks like an AT&ST
I'm still a few 'Mechs short of my goal of having one each at least of every 'Mech in 3025.

Btw, does anybody have an Hermes II of the 3050 resculpt to spare for sale? I can't find it on eBay. Only the thin old mini.

I have about 90 some odd 'Mechs of various weight classes. I also have a Battalion's worth of infantry, 48 Battlesuits, 30 or so tanks, plus artillery, APCs and other various support vehicles. Everything a well rounded unit needs to operate in the field (including a couple of fuel tanker trucks!)

Ya know, I've been into battletech for about 7 years now, but for 5 1/2 of that I had no minis other than the ones that come with 4th ED, because the GM I played with kept a huge collection. When he moved away I started buying them and I'm up to around 60of mixed weight in mechs, around 20 vehicles, 3 vtols, and 2 areospace fighters. Lemme catch up will ya?

Hmm. Shipping costs within the EU shouldn't be too dear for light packages. What would you say two minis weigh?
