Matt's Cool Idea

[ArmorcastMatt]

So I had this idea yesterday, right? And while it's not really a new product, I think it might be pretty cool. What do you guys think of an Armorcast "bits" section in the store? A way for you to get that perfect piece to finish off a terrain project or just get replacement parts for something lost or damaged. It would start out with stuff like the Modular refinery uprights and that sweet Pipewall accessory where the pipes disappear into the ground, and we would branch out from there. Only we can't call them bits
(that's a GDub thing). So we would need a new name for them.
Whaddaya think?

Outstanding!

I think this is a tremendous idea, as there are parts of a variety of different kits that I can see myself purchasing to create certain pieces of terrian, or certain looks.  The pipewall end bits (as mentioned), for example, look great coming out of the side of certain buildings--like huge power conduits going in.

Now for the name.  Miscellaneous Debris?  Oddments?  The Boneyard?

[Cozmo]

great idea!!

armorcast-off's??

or just cast-off's?

i guess you could also put any casting "seconds" in there as well, as some people may not care that it's 100% depending on what they want the piece for?

Great idea !!!  If you get the Medieval Building line back under your umbrella I'd take tons of the roof pieces alone !!!

How about "ArmorCASTINGS" for the components and use Cozmo's suggestion "ArmorCASTOFFS" for the not-so-perfect but still good for the discount bin seconds ??

The idea is out-freakin-standing and I'm already saving all my podcket change in a jar for Terrain Extras. As for a name how about BYTES?  Not only would it be a neat anacronym for -- Bringing You Terrain Extras & Service, but it would be a nice tweak at the Beard of the Pale Yard Gnome mascot of the almighty G-Dub.

add my vote for a yes to that idea...that just smacks of good customer service (I used to work retail)...

B...

B.Y.T.E.S. huh? I kinda like that. I think our resident pale yard gnome mascot Ginfritter should get a kick out of it too. I also really like Armorcast-offs for the seconds as well.

Hey, I resemble that comment! LOL Boy do I have scale yard gnomes to sell you

Forgive me -- I guess I should have said the Hairy-faced Hobbit Mascot of G-Dub 

[Cloves]

armorcast-offs!!!??? that's a brilliant name.

[farseer]

Armorparts?

Suggestion for an easy repackage:
Do a Goth Tech Building first floor kit: 4 walls with corners and without doors, or alternatively with one door for a balcony.
(The extension walls have no corners, as I found out)

[ArmorcastMatt]

Well I guess it's unanimous. Everyone seems to think this is as good an idea as I do. So shortly after Origins we will open the Salvage Yard section of our online store. Featuring the Brilliantly named Armorcast-offs a collection of mystery bagged seconds sold by weight in either Sci-f or fantasy lots ( We should still have a box of seconds you can root through at the shows though.) And, Our Bytes section. Where you can get your favorite individual Armorcast pieces.
