[@SwiftDeath0608]

I was not ready for the pin-up T’au sniper

[@666styxxx666]

I WANT that figure but I. 1/6 or 1/9 scale it would be great to paint at that size 😁 sitting alongside my mando model

[@zxaoks1090]

She’s kinda thick

[@johnclarke25]

It's great fun opening old boxes of hobby stuff....but you've still got a long way to go,I have my original airfix figures from 1966 up to my first metal English civil war figures from 1971 and all my games workshop armies from 1982 to current era stuff and don't regret any of them as they all bring me joy even now,I'm 64 and still go.....oooh new shinys.

[@laurencepenfold]

"I need a shelf" - that rack of shelves behind you is giving you the stink-eye.

[@intzbk1]

@18:11, That's Sister Hazel, Plague Doctor from Reaper minis. I just got her for free with my last order. I also got Wolf in Sheep's Clothing which looks like it will be a blast to paint.

[@MrWingedSpirit]

Frank Darabont's Starship Troopers? (11:24) Thought it was from Paul Verhoeven...

[@INVICTUSStream]

I think he misspoke

[@lightningwolf788]

How is nobody discussing the pure joy you had when finding and reuniting Big Grot with Lil Grot?!

[@wikyWargaming]

That was pretty cool 😂👍

[@CristianCooks]

I love being able to wake up and watch an Eons of Battle video almost every day a week. My days are often really rough, it's hard to keep my motivation up and keep going. But something I ALWAYS look forward to is getting up in the morning, popping on one of your videos and having my little half hour of positivity before the world hits.

[@brionl4741]

Looks at Jay's "oldest" minis. Looks at the Blood Bowl minis I bought in the 80's. And the Ral Partha D&D minis I bought in the 70's...

[@xc_OuMa]

Seeing Jay dump out a box of minis hurt but I remember those are probably all plastic 😅 I look at my printed minis funny and they disintegrate

[@brokenheroics8223]

I beennso busy running my new game store. I haven't painted anything for about a month. But seeing this pile of minis motivates me to grab something and just paint to get the hobby bug back on track. Thanks, Jay.

[@TimZoet]

I would LOVE to see you paint up the Starship Troopers minis! That game deserve a revive, especially after the game that came out last year. Service guarantees citizenship. Would you like to know more?

[@wanna877]

I love that tau sniper, we dont get many pinups on video, since its a little risque, but the're so fun to paint.

[@carstenschops7797]

"More than a year" is old? I still have some plastic beaky marines from last century :P

[@Virakotxa]

Last millennium, if you think about it...

[@666styxxx666]

I've plastic models from the 70's and don't consider them old, heck I've GW metal eldar swooping hawk order than jay🤣

[@Mosaic117]

Jay if you want a miniature agnostic skirmish game to play all these random minis, which is super easy to learn but great fun with friends, I can recommend space weirdos by garske games. It’s fully miniature agnostic (you choose stats to represent your models)

[@ZombieMonkey7]

The starship troopers box would actually be a good idea to do now since the ip has gotten a ton of eyes drawn to it all because of Helldivers 2

[@roguepoison]

At this point I almost expect Helldivers to get miniatures at some point in the future because of how much of a hit the game is

[@ZombieMonkey7]

I would buy any Helldiver models instantly- that and Elden Ring, always wanted to do a diorama set in Limgrave

[@bionicletech]

Just noticed the malifaux fate decks behind your head…been on a HUGE malifaux kick recently with the release of Ashes of Malifaux. I always love seeing more content for that game!

[@Pyre001]

"I don't see any genestealers" I could literally see a genestealer right there... But with a pile right in front of you, its very understandable.

[@nixlsanchez8151]

I didn't see it until he said it and my eyes locked onto it

[@400KrispyKremes]

He meant the specific one's from the scout game he mentioned. Not the 40k ones.

[@kindcurls8945]

Did you sort and photograph what was in the box? Would be cool to see them all together in their relevant armies/projects!

[@piesandhiking4943]

Models in an open box in the garage. What an absolute savage you are Jay!

[@consterthemonster9614]

That wood chip I love him

[@frenzykitty]

Your content and personality are so great - your excitement gets me excited to build and paint again. I wouldn't be surprised if you hit 750k in the next year.

[@iamaraindog385]

The little Plague Doctor looks exactly like the one in Darkest Dungeons, very cool!

[@DrFopolopolas]

For the starship troopers minis or any others you wont use anymore you could make dioramas! And maybe raffle rhem to fans? Or sell em or have a showroom lol. Love the vids!

[@mikevincent8728]

Isn't it wild when Jay refers to things as 'pretty old' and literally four fifths of my hobby life was before those things were released! Imma get mah pipe and slippers :P

[@ADSCoachSimonB2112]

I am amazed that you still have all that stuff, I have maybe 10 Horus Heresy figures I have some on paint a few months ago and put inside a display case. I haven’t played any WH in years I mainly play TTRPG games as part of my job

[@WastelandGod]

Hi Jay, Do you use any airbrush thinner or airbrush flow improver at all when varnishing with the Vallejo Satin Mecha Varnish? If so what kind of ratios are you using? Thank you in advance!

[@euansmith3699]

That Space Marine for Lost Patrol has seen far too much.

[@worf6715]

Wow, those Martians look super awesome!

[@ianbareham5872]

Jay Not sure if you heard if the Miniatures Agnostic Game Stargrave the space version of Frostgrave. But you can make a crew from any miniatures you want perhaps all the odd one you showed here could be your Stargrave Crew. I’m doing a Rouge Trader Space Ork Crew with mainly metal minis.

[@Gumupah]

A lot of good diorama fodder in that box. Man how time flies.

[@shawnclark1261]

use the starship troopers arachnids as tyranids

[@brianbarrett2487]

Would you like a 3rd edition Orc on the sprue still from the OG Blood Angel/Orc box? I have like 5-6 left unbuilt from a long ago purchase. All the Gretchen have been built and painted unfortunately.

[@esc9869]

That Broodlord painted in GSC color looks really great~! Would also like to see a GSC broodlord painted in Tyranid color.

[@JPF-Lionheart]

Jay you gotta get on One Page Rules - that way you can use your terminator, mars attacks aliens, starship trooper models... 😘

[@usernamedkjahstill5003]

The oldest model in my collection is one, Greta Kruse! 97 years old and still has some gams!

[@bad-people6510]

That Terminator is a bare chassis so it's not a 101. Looks like a T-800. 101 is a designation for the outer tissue model, that is the ones that look specifically like Arnold Schwarzenegger are model 101, it's the model number for his face.

[@TheCosmere64]

I remember that tau video!! The video was focussed around making a plinth ti put it on because the model was detailed and fancy

[@A_Saboteur]

for the necron spider base you make the wood knot look like a blast mark to camouflage it

[@actively_narcissistic]

Seeing you pull out the genestealer that you painted on stream gave me so many memories of late night painting lol

[@JamesTillmanjimthegray]

the starship troopers game had a lot of stuff from the animated rough necks show, i have a few of the minis around here somewhere but lost most of them

[@DimMakk]

One Page those Terminators!

[@PistolPeteLee]

‘Looks a little bit sad’ That paint job is a dream 😂

[@mike-o-matic5061]

13:40 should be a new sting wing armory option

[@thenapalmbrothershq5585]

The ST bug looks awesome.

[@GoatTheGoat]

7:06 Did you say "Rank and Fire"?

[@elfmastercool4734]

Is that a clever Nick edit when Jay says "I don't know what drew me to paint this Tau model..." and it shows a closeup of the backside of the model's butt?

[@MasterShake9000]

The win condition for Lost Patrol is using the crashed pod’s comms to alert Chapter command to exterminatus the planet.

[@CronosVids]

Admit it. How many of you cringed when you saw Jay pouring out all those loose models from that box into a pile?

[@tunguskalumberjack9987]

Maybe use the Terminator T-800 (Cyberdyne Systems Model 101) models as some type of Necron Lords? Add a bit of Egyptian stuff and that might work out! Edit: I really like the “Tuxedo” Necron shown at 16:15 👍🏻

[@CupCakeUnleashed]

Honey get the chippies, Jay posted another video.

[@HEADLESSKROGAN]

20:18 I wonder what could have possibly drawn you to that mini. Truly a mystery.

[@benjaminmartin3159]

Starship Troopers is Paul Verhoeven. Service guarantees citizenship.

[@kmanpaints]

I want to have babies 😁😂

[@carlsoll]

3:25 I’m completely *amateur* at Strategy Board Games ♟️ Table Top Games. I play a bunch of Hearthstone, But I do recognize a modified rule-set to better enhance Gameplay :o Speaking of Gameplay, you guys have a List of some Entry Level Stuff or Great Immersive Games/Worlds to Sink your *teeth in?* Lmk!

[@yobtar]

The Mars Attacks game is a really fun game. Wish Mantic didnt loose the license for it.

[@rexfrancorum7173]

Sister Hazel, great mini

[@Slurgical_3D_Terrain_Channel]

Cobra mode…..I used to talk to someone years ago going by that name. Great looking miniature. I like your take on the game.

[@azecece1]

Hello, how do you keep straight your rule books in the background ?

[@Josh24861]

Crazy to see all the models from old videos, somehow I remember All of them

[@blissfulbadger]

Yeah, you need a display shelf for those!

[@niezłyNajdżer]

22:10 more like a mantis warriors - white scars succesors chapter

[@chaosof99]

Yesterday CinemaWins released a video on how good Starship Troopers is and today Jay opens a box with Bug miniatures in it. Coincidences.

[@davidburgess3354]

Probably...

[@AzraelThanatos]

That's the metal version of the female plague doctor Reaper has, there is also a male one, along with, I believe, a bones black version of each of them

[@mattpk1609]

Anyone know what the yellow creature in the background next to Jays head is?

[@chaosinsurgency3979]

My oldest model (as far as i know) is a third edition Black Templar marshal body, although some bits on it are resin

[@markhanson9508]

11:30 Frank Darabont!? Paul Verhoeven please.

[@RogalDorn01]

This was memory lane for me too...pretty sure I saw all the bods referenced as they came out LOL

[@tirandeshibaraki743]

Ah I have the Morgaine's Blade Coven as well! I painted mine up to look like the Sailor Moon inner senshi XD

[@bad-people6510]

Use 40k pieces to play book accurate Starship Trooper. Pit gun wielding Tyranids against Space Marine Terminators with Cyclone Launchers and jump packs glued on.

[@gigapuddi]

Man, I guess Im an old fan at this point. I remember every video these came from. Surely it wasnt that long ago?

[@AmateurSuperFan]

convert the t-1000 into a Men of Iron

[@JacobFarley-y8s]

Could use your terminator models for Dark Mechanicus or Iron Warriors

[@eeko01]

If Belisarius Cawl can do it, I see no reason to not get some chunky primaris grots too.

[@kikolokopo_toys]

That thumbnail threw me back to 2016 when everybody was doing mystery boxes

[@greg_mca]

The space marines are still fine as a tactical marine kill team, as they can have a plasma gun, heavy bolter, and leader with power fist and pistol. You just need 3 other guys with basic bolters and that's a valid team

[@laurencepenfold]

Since the Necrons are the Space Tomb Kings, the 54mm terminators could become Space Ushabti. Or scenery - some of those crazy overlords must like statues.

[@DannyBob526]

That box contains more models than I own 😂

[@grimmriffer]

Kitbash the Terminators (as in skynet, not space marine) into weird necrons!! Or tech priests things, or scary servitors!!

[@robertchmielecki2580]

You have quite different idea of what an "old" mini is than I do ;) congrats on your findings !

[@consterthemonster9614]

WOW I love THIS Video SO MUCH👍

[@TeroyanatorLS]

i'de like that garage box!!

[@benchui580]

10：50 starship trooper tabletop wargame sounds awesome and would love to play it

[@Michael_MW]

YO YOU HAVE ARACHNIDS!? Coooooooooollll!!! I wish I had played that game when it was out :(

[@alexanderfielding]

I tried the paperclip trick to try and fly and now Jay owes me a new paperclip... I uh.. lost the other one.

[@ratbaby3107]

I remember Lost Patrol, I thought it was awesome at the time!

[@magnusmillerwilson]

This is really fun!

[@clausbitten]

You could try to sneak the Terminators in a game with Necrons. Replace some Warriors or Royal Wardens with them. :)

[@rebilacx]

Will you be streaming again?

[@Grindusorphanconsumer]

jay a fun idea could be to use them in a homebrew game of dnd as standins for homebrew bosses and stuff

[@Fenris86]

I think when it comes to "oldest" I might have Eldar and Dark Angel minis older than some regulars at my GW...

[@ajsherwood4937]

How are those wraiths not front and centre of your necron list right now? :O

[@matthewsprange4455]

Good to see Starship Troopers popping up. You would be welcome to drop us a line if you ever wanted to take a deeper dive into it :)

[@Hartfilmsandstuff]

You should try some miniature agnostic war games for those random miniatures

[@connendarf3857]

Where did you get that lil mantis fella? They look adorable and I would love to protect one of my own with my life

[@klaykid117]

That man is figure would be perfect for a random sci-fi game or better yet use it as a gene stealer cult member

[@leonardneubeck1003]

Could you please make a video about converting terminators into black templar ones with tabarts and so on. Because the new Deathwing Terminators could be so templar fitting but they cant be played as them. So we definetly need a guide to build cool ones by ourselves

[@shawnclark1261]

you should get those guys to their armies and put the one offs behind you on the shelves where you can see them

[@sniperlemming]

"I don't know what drew me to this model" say Jay while holding a nude Tau girl. lol Sure Jay, i believe you. 😛

[@lana_del_Rei.neet-]

yeah that tau sniper seem to be hard to make with a single hand

[@benjaminzach7049]

That mantis dude would be great for Stargrave.

[@uc79newtype]

Mars attack alien always give me the creeps. As a kid their faces fucking freaked me out
