Robert, I won't be able to include you in this giveaway. You must be a registered member of the Forumini on the day I started the event as is stated in the first post. Hopefully we will see you here next month as a member!

I forgot to add that since I originally painted the Nautilus mini's I painted the wooden deck on the ones I still had in stock. So the one you win will have a proper wooden deck.

I still haven't finished the "special," but I am making good progress. So we will do another "re-run" this month. A USN "Midway" duo with USS Nautilus and USS Gwin. USS Nautilus is from Direwolf's Depot and USS Gwin is from Tiny Thingamajigs. Bases by Reacher of course.
You can enter if you have not won a miniature in one of my monthly giveaways in the last six months. If you have a mini from me by any other means like a contest prize you are still eligible. According to my list the ineligible contestants are Scheerluck, sohigh, grgbobe, wargamer99, and Locksrule. All others are eligible. If the prize is not claimed within two weeks of the drawing I will roll the die again from the same list of participants.
Just post to this thread:
"Midway above and below" before Monday, May 6th, 2024, 8 PM US Central Time. I will compile the list in order of posting as usual, and then roll for the winner on Tuesday night, May 7th, around 9:00 pm US Central Time.
The fine print: As always, entries are limited to members of the Forumini that joined the board as of the time this message was posted. I paint several copies of each miniature and the one you receive may be slightly different from the miniature in the photographs. Weedsrock2, his affiliates, and heirs, take no responsibility for the outcome of any game where this miniature is used.

I used the "shake test" occassionally as well. I think it was the most reliable if you were looking for a big rare. For anything else it was pretty much impossible to tell.
Some retail stores put the boosters behind the counter to prevent people from shaking or weighing them.
The absolute best way to avoid getting a lot of repeats was to buy an entire case. Particularly with Sets III to VI you would pretty reliably get everything except four of the rares. WotC was pretty good about that.
