Re: Paulson Chips contain lead!!!

I'm more worried about the air we breathe on a daily basis. On a side note, I'm a certified contaminated chip disposal expert. For a small fee ( basically shipping ) you can send me your potentially lethal chips, and I'll make sure they will never pose a health threat to you or your family ever again. PM me with details.

Re: Paulson Chips contain lead!!!

I'd be more than happy to part with mine after this news. It's shocking to say the least. But I have 600 near mint condition Paulson Chips with the green inlays.

If I were to die via the handling of Paulson clays....what a pleasant death it would be. Cheers

Re: Paulson Chips contain lead!!!

Is it any safer if you wear a condom while playing with your Paulsons?

Re: Paulson Chips contain lead!!!

While I am not concerned about handling or owning the lead chips myself, my biggest fear is that the do-gooders always seem to win. If they win in forcing Paulson to create a new recipe, what will Paulson's be like in the future? This is the unfortunate direction I fear this will head.

Re: Paulson Chips contain lead!!!

And by the looks of this thread, fear mongering wins again!

Here's a few tips to survive:

1. Don't eat your chips.
2. Don't crush your chips into a few powder and inhale them.
3. Wash your hands after handling them/before eating.

Doesn't anybody play Warhammer or the like? All those figures are made out of lead! There's more things out there to be worried about. Like snakes.

Those figures haven't been made of lead since the 80s. (I have some of the old lead figures)

I have way to many 40k figures that I don't play with anymore.

Re: Paulson Chips contain lead!!!

Hi:

Well after been breathing for 24 years lead in Mexico City's air, I guess isn't bad news for me .
