He didn't say his collection has a limit or imply it won't get bigger; he said his collection is limited due to being away from Ogre for 30+ years. The implication is there would be a lot more stuff if he had been gathering continuously. I don't see any evidence that he thinks what he currently has is the upper limit of what he should have or is unreasonable, just that he's been limited by time/activity.

Precisely correct GranitePenguin! The limit of the size of my Ogre collection is strictly determined by time, availability, opportunity & budget. I believe I've done OK over the last 5 months.
I'm in no way limited by interest. I'll study or play Ogre anytime i can. I'll buy just about any Ogre item i can get for a fair price. I can see myself easily acquiring another ODE or two, as well as the Ogre mini army I dreamed of back in the 80's. and probably a whole lot more. Looking forward to the upcoming Battlefields expansion, Rulebook & Nightfall scenarios. Its great to be back in the Ogreverse again, and see how the game has developed over the years. Its a great time, & I'm loving every minute of it!

Gentlemen, Gentlemen You have totally taken what I said by mistake and with the trolling that goes on with the internet I can understand. My comment was directed at those that tell us we should have a limit. I TOTALLY agree with you both and actually consider Sparky a kindred spirit as I approach Ogre in all it's phases the same way. Sorry if you felt any other way.

No harm done at all! I agree - no limits. Especially that budget limit. And the time limit. Both of those have been killers for me lately ;-).
Thanks for the clarification.
Hope to see you over a game board someday...

You'll know its me - I'll be the one rolling the impossibly long string of coseceutive "1's".

A lot of stuff, both old and new (ODE) and a lot of unpainted Ogre miniatures too. Perhaps one day I should compile an inventory? Maybe.

All my current boardgame Ogre material (ODE & related bits) resides in a 'Really Useful Box' for ease-of-transport and safety. The original big box is in it's shipping box stashed away in the loft.

Sadly, the shot glasses I got as part of the ODE KS project were all chipped and damaged - probably down to the clumsiness of the freight people or the storage people, I don't really know. So there's never been a chance to toast any success - NAC or Combine or anyone else - for popping an Ogre :-/

At least two of us recieved our shiny new BLACK plastic Ogres today. The other guy even posted a photo of an assembled MK III on Facebook.

Whereupon you will have the perfect Ogre to play "The Black Knight" scenario...

You can't lay sole claim to that "gift." My game online against Bounder last Friday was incredibly 1-heavy on my side. It was a pretty solid "you shall not win" divine intervention if I ever saw one.
