Ever get the uncomfortable feeling you have thrown figures(s) out? Like that little Jacobite soldier that came with the Black Powder supplement, out with the plastic wrap I think. |

Yep, some 10mm Stug IIIs. I also once threw a WAB supplement out- mixed up with a pile of paper for the recycle bin. DOH! |

I sucked up a loose wizard with a vaccum hose at the car wash. |

I haven't, but suspect my parents may have, since many of my childhood plastic minis and toys are MIA

I lost a Jakara Spyrer Hunter to the garbage disposal (I had been stripping it, and it got knocked in there without my knowledge). |

A friend lost his unpainted western gunfighters, thought he might have thrown them out, then suspected his nephew for a time. Years later, found them with his pirates. Catalogued with the "packed neatly" miniatures, go figure. |

Yeah, last year I got some Mars Attacks figures and some greys from ebay. Put them back in the envelope, on my desk, and cleaned the desk off next day ! AARrgghhh ! |

No, but I'm sure I've thrown out some magazine by accident. For what ever reason I left them in the paper bags the store put comics and magazines in. I'm absolutely sure I've thrown the magazines out with the bags on a couple occasions. I distinctly remember reading some of the issues of Necromunda magazine that went missing, due to the Ash Wastes vehicle rules in them. They were no where to be found in my collection. Now they are as I got a huge stack of about 60 diferent Fanatic Press magazines for $10 at my local store. I've thought I'd thrown out miniatures from time to time, but I eventually found the missing figs. I've even bought replacement figs for some of them I thought I lost, only to find the missing fig shortly after buying the replacemnt. |

Easiest way to find a lost figure has always been to buy a replacement. Some kind of sympathetic magic I suppose. |

The King of This, am I. Hired my nephews to empty my Garage during my 'Rather Unpleasant Moving Adventure #7' (c) this past October. I do believe an Armorcast Gargant was mistakenly sent to the Dump, as it was packed in a generic Cardboard box. (sound of head banging into wall) |

I've vacuumed up bits before. Cannot recall a whole miniature. I have lost one down a air vent though. |

When cleaning up the workbench, I set aside a 24-fig Front Rank SYW Hungarian infantry unit and 2 12-fig Austrian cavalry regiments (thankfully unpainted) – I put them beside some things the Missus was taking to Goodwill, so by mistake they were donated to a willing charity |

Not thrown out, but left on top of the truck as I drove away. A "unit" of freshly built and painted Strykers and a "bunch" of painted modern Soviet and US infantry [about 30]. |
