Hey everyone, I am thinking about picking up an inquisitor to use with my Imperial Guard and there is one particular model that I am looking for, Inquisitor Gideon Lorr, the Gamesday mini for 2004. I was wondering if anyone had this guy locally who was willing to part with it. I am willing to negotiate prices. Figure that I can find him on the great and glorious ebay but if I could find someone locally that had one and save on shipping and help a local gamer out in the process that would be the better option. here is a picture of him unpainted and for good measure, one of him painted I think it is the best looking inquisitor model out there and it really is a pity that they did not put him into the regular mini range, Games Workshop could be making money off of me right now instead of somebody else benifiting from my intrest. I am also looking for a spare 'old' Leman Russ turret and an eradicator cannon off of the new tank kit, you know the one that denies cover.

I wish you luck sir. Everyone seems to want this figure (myself included), or everyone seems to want high dollar for him. I'll keep an eye open though

Thanks, good luck on your search as well. Out of curiosity, does anyone have the regular Witch Hunters Inquisitor? This guy I am willing to settle for him, its the hat, you can't be a proper inquisitor without a hat. Still interested in that eradicator cannon bit and could still use a Leman Russ turret. cannon for reference

I have the guy you are looking for, but I plan to use him. I got him on ebay for like 15 bucks I think. I really wanted him too. Sorry bud, look on ebay. He has special rules too (Gideon Lorr). cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170595225960&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:ITRULES: INQUISITOR GIDEON LORR =][=Inquisitor Gideon Lorr, scourge of heretics, witches and occasionally legitimate psykers. is only available lor a limited period. Pts - 165 ws - 5 bs - 4 S - 3 T - 3 W - 3 I - 4 A - 3 Ld - 10 SV - 3+EQUIPMENTMaster-crafted plasma pistol, power weapon, excruciators, purity seals, psi-tracker, and rosarius RETINUEInquisitor Lorr is accompanied by a retinue of three Imperial Guard Veterans. Men he has gathered to him, and of whom he will dispose of ruthlessly when they are no longer of use. • Each is armed with a shotgun, frag and krak grenades, and wears carapace armor (Sv 4+). • The ws increase for taking these henchman is Included in Lorr's profile, as is their points value. SPECIAL RULES· lron Will: An Inquisitor lord has an unbending determination to prevail, backed by a clinical understanding of how to achieve his goals. As such, he can choose whether to pass or fall any Morale check or Pinning test he is called upon to make. This ability is conveyed to any unit he joins. Even if failure is automatic, the lord may still choose whether to pass or fail the test. Independent Character: Unless accompanied by his retinue Inquisitor Lorr is an independent character and follows all of the rules for characters in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. If the retinue is destroyed he becomes an Independent character and is free to join other units Notes from forum I found this on: also introduced the ability for sisters to " recruit " zealots to fight for him in his holy quest (..2pts or so.. bs sucks ..ws sucks.. )but what does it matter when there is 50 of us Edit: had to edit this as someone young must have typed it up...

Yeah, you beat me to it, another friend literally just told me about it just a few minutes before I made this post and I checked it out, he's on preorder right now so I am going to get him now and then eagerly wait for the day he ships. Yippie-yo-ka-yah! Can't wait until he gets re-released.

I know, its simply bizzar. But at least I got him while he was up, bought him Friday, he shiped on Monday. Really is strange, they must have had only a limited stock or something. That or they did not expect so much demand, what ever the reason at least they had him up for a bit. Far cheaper than fishing for him on ebay, $15 vs. $30+.

It is weird. Maybe they didn't want to make money.
