they're magically delicious

The weekend after Wincon, we were able to play a few games of RoboRally as well as play some Fairy Meat. For figures, I had bought three sets of the Disney Fairies from the Disney store and had left one set unchanged, painted one set alternate colors, and painted the third set in Dark colors (like wannabe Goth Fairies).
For counters, I had bought a bunch (bunches?) of plastic grapes from the dollar store. Green for live, purple/red for meat, and yellow for twinkle. I also picked up some little plastic holders which ended up being too small but work well in holding the live and meat counters when the fairies die.
We only played the intro rule with the intro fairies from the main rulebook (live 3, meat 3, twinkle 1). http://files.boardgamegeek.com/viewfile.php3?fileid=8077

Even with the large fairies, we kept the distances the same and they seemed to work out very well. In fact, in the artwork in the book, you could now use Smurf as other figures (gnomes or goblins) and they would match well.

The first game was pretty slow as we worked out the logistics, but the second game was quite fun. We'll probably have to give this another go with the full regular rules.
