Vintage GHQ + Prep cleaning minis!

I just got an order of some discounted GHQ. Some of them are pretty old but the sculpts are still good looking so I don't mind. So let me give you an overview of the minis I got then I'll show you how I prep clean my minis using an ultrasonic cleaner.

2 packs of German Raketenpanzer. Iltis jeeps, and Leopard II A4's. Russian BRDM 1 Swatter and Zil 57k fuel truck. Finally American LVTP-7's.

 Lets have a closer look at the LVTP-7s!

Right out of the blister. Two turrets and one other piece. I don't know what it is!

 So this is the ultrasonic cleaner. Just add water and a bit of soap then set it for the maximum time.

In the tank with just enough water to cover the minis.

Adding some soap!

It will froth with many tiny bubbles cleaning the minis very efficiently.

Here they are set on a cloth to dry before being painted. If you have any more questions about prepping minis ask away!

Order from Gamecraft Miniatures

Good day. Its Thursday. I received TWO packages today! The first one we will look at is from Allen Rockwell at gcmini.com This order came in record time I must say. The box even had some candy in it!

 Candy!

 I got these awesome project boxes. They stack so I can save some desk space.

I put together the first set. 

Besides the sweet boxes I got an add on pack for Test of Honour, some 6 sided dice, and some GHQ miniatures.

Russian T-80 and BMP2 box.

 Russian GAZ Tigrs.

Russian BM-27 Urugans

Thanks to Allen and Gamecraft miniatures! Check back tomorrow for the breakdown of the package I got from Baccus!

I was looking at my Micro Armor this week. I have continued to collect modern American units but I wasn't sure what I had. I also wanted to order some Russian units so I can actually play GHQ's Modern Micro Armor game. I ordered a Russian T-80 combat command box, Gaz tigers, and some MLRS units from Gamecraft Miniatures. I also ordered some project boxes too. Hopefully these will help me organize my desk a bit better. Allen Rockwell is the guy who runs Gamecraft minis. He has a fantastic YouTube channel which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_zjLdVqHHYiDYJvjSARV9Q

Ok, lets have a look at what you get in the box with GHQ's American Anti-Tank Company! Wow! Look at all this stuff!

It comes with a storage box which is a wonderful addition!

Also included some rules for the minis.

Alright! A lot of stuff has been going on. I got several orders so expect a few posts over the next few days. First up is the Anit-Air units. I got a pack of Linebackers and Vulcans.

The Linebackers are an anti-air version of the Bradley. I haven't stuck the stingers on these yet but they go in that little hole on the turret.

 Based in white since I'm doing a sand theme. 

Basecoat is Middlestone from Vallejo.
