Oh that. That makes a lot more sense

Guys.

I have done a bad thing. Or a good thing. I just placed an order for the Gamers' Edition.

Oh, and the Dice of Dice, too.

Great looking case for a bit of a ridiculous price. In the end, if you're happy with your purchase, that's the most important thing.

**unmercifulconker**

Just saw a post on reddit showing some of the one click bundles like the windrider host is more expensive than buying individually (oops checked myself, more than 4 quid difference) so GW are now charging for the saving of time?

This is a new low GW, a new low indeed.

**Commander Cain**

Would it hurt them to knock a few bucks/quid off the price of the bundles? I really don't see the point of them...

**unmercifulconker**

This little trick they have pulled is disgusting.

**ironicsilence**

i would have guess they would have built in a future price increase with the one click pricing, but just being a few dollars more expensive likely wouldnt account for that. Whole price difference of 1 click vs buying together is odd

**Bangbangboom**

No shokk attack gun formation

just as I started buying snots and old school shokk attack guns to build one.

A lot of Ork formations are missing from the 1 click bundles, I hope there is more in the book than there is on the site.

anyone saying that sisters got screwed by not being included in the formation set up is missing a big point. If they actually put up a formation for sisters then the £1000 price tag for that battle board+forts will look reasonable!
When a standard SoB squad costs roughly £50 (for ten models), and a minimum heavy weapon squad costs £42.5 (for 5 models). Any type of formation near to any of the others would be ridiculously priced. For instance if you were to do an equivalent of the C:SM reserve company in SoB then it would run at £620ish.....compared to £360ish......

Im glad there arent any SoB formations because it would mean some poor fool would probably buy it at some point, and its just not worth it. Get on eBay and buy your SoB there like everyone else does.

This is probably the same reason there aren't any aspect warrior formations for Eldar.

Actually that is kind of amusing..

Possibly for the parent who just wants to buy something but hasn't got a clue what they are actually buying? The old adage of a 'fool and his money' comes to mind, although it is rather cruel in any case..

In all seriousness, quite possibly an admin error?

**CthuluIsSpy**

All of those formations are not feasible for me.

I hope there are more in the book than that.

**airmang**

The iBooks version if the Apocalypse book is MORE expensive than the hardback version.... Kinda weird, especially after some books (most of the fantasy and Iyanden books) have been cheaper.

Oh, just noticed it includes the how to paint book. I guess that's a deal....

**IHateNids**

Agreed. I mean, wheres the Armoured Interdiction Cadre?

Yes ... but you can still make only the one vehicle from it? I'm sure most people would rather you just had a choice of 3 different boxes at the £70 (which was already ridiculous), and you can choose the tank you would like?

Looks like the drill is to buy up the older BB kits and then buy one of the new ones to get parts for all of the conversions.

Re the Windrider Host - remember they have to pay a guy to break open a jetbike squad box to get the spare jetbike & then throw the rest away - with minimum wage in the UK at about £6 per hour, GW have obviously worked out that it takes 40 minutes to break into one of their boxes, sort the parts & find a non-recycling bin to put the other 2 bikes in. I call 'no foul'!

Hey, in parts of the UK it really can take 40 minutes to find a non-recycling bin...

I bought the collector's edition today, I'm sure I'll be happy with it when it arrives.

It's only money and you don't have to buy it.

This really is a new low. If they did it on one bundle they probably have done it on others.

I am rooting for them to get bought out now.

**IHateNids**

I think its only a matter of time now, they have driven the vast majority of the customers to independent retailers, so they are getting less and less RoI.

Eventually, they will either see reason and lower prices to normality, and get their entire stock removed at once and have a massive amount of profit, or they will get bought by someone who will...

**pretre**

You know... It is possible when creating 100 bundles someone made a math error. Just saying...

Knowing GW, replace that "a," with "several dozen" and you're on the right track

**Compel**

I'm disappointed there's no proper bundle deals from totalwargamer or Wayland. If there was a "just buy the stuff whats needed with an extra saving" I'd be happy.

**Enigwolf**

I'm curious whether third-party vendors will see any increase in sales if they did a proper discounted bundle.

**Lovepug13**

Well collectors and gamers still up for sale in UK.

Wonder how much longer they will be available? At least one person in the thread has purchased one

**MeanGreenStompa**

If you are aware of online discounters and therefore aware of the rate of discount, it means you'll go to the extra effort to order the kits there and save the money, so take the extra 3-5 mins it'll take to fill your order/shopping cart and save around 20%, or, if you can't rationale that even if you have money to throw away, that still means extra minis... spend it with GW.

Dakka's operating at normal capacity, I see.

They're still up in the US, too.

Edit: I also wish they numbered the cases.

Jervis does give shout out to the SAG in his Standard Bearer article, perhaps all hope is not lost?

**stompygitz**

When exactly are the going to be released?

Also, will the new rule book completely change the rules for apoc?

**Jackal**

The wind rider box isnt mispriced.
They have just priced each vyper as a single model, rather than the squad of 3 that is cheaper.

Dirty trick, and really deserves to be dropped in price, but its GW is it not?
