Man, count on Now to deliver an article that's condescending and abrasive to toy soldier collectors, AND delivers a swipe at gamers too.

No, seriously.

High-priced figures probably aren't played with much, but some enthusiasts do play war games – the younger generations of war nerds who tend to invest in the fantasy world of Warhammer and paint orcs, elves, lizardmen and other Tolkienesque creatures.

War nerds. What an awesome term.

I would term myself more of a War Geek, I think. War Nerd has a better ring to it, though.

War Nerd sounds like someone who's really good at War stuff, while a War Geek would be someone who has a lot of tanks.
