Anyone who follows current events knows that our friends down under are in a pretty rough spot right now with massive fires raging across the continent. The team at Victoria Miniatures has offered the hobby community a great way to reach out a helping hand to our friends in need. Let’s let her explain.

Bushfire FundraiserFor every Kangaroo APC kit sold during January, Victoria Miniatures, in conjunction with our resin caster’s at Trench Worx will donate $50.00 USD (around $73.00 AUD) to the RSPCA.

Each Kangaroo APC sold during this period will also include a free pre-release Hedgerow Cutter. A kangaroo purchase will also qualify for a free miniature of the month of your choice.

If you would prefer to donate directly to an Australian Bush Fire charity of your choice, here are some helpful links. Every little bit counts.

Thank you, V

Spikey Bits sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

LEGO maniac and scale model hobbyist in the 80s turned miniature wargamer and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
