Alternate shields?

[The Red Devil]

The two grey plastic shields (from 5th ed. skinks?)

It was the saurus that used the shields, the skinks had bows so no shields at that edition.

GOOD NEWS EVERYONE

I now have four shields to spare for my twenty Temple Guards!

I visited two additional Wal*Marts. The second was a bust. But the third yielded 12 more shields (once again hidden in the sewing section and cleverly disguised as buttons). @Crowsfoot I spotted that one of the cards they were attached to says on the back, "5/8 inch (16MM)", but I stand by the measurement I reported earlier of 15mm.

... women who shop at Wal*Mart have been stitching Temple Guard Shields to their clothing, apparently for years.

And now I have evidence.

Earlier in the thread I said this:

I got some buttons once upon a time...

I went digging through some storage boxes, looking for some skinks I think I own, and look what I found instead:

I was right. I had bought some buttons many moon ago. Check the price: $1.16 for three. Current issue is $1.44 for three.
