I vote never. GW insists on claiming its not a gaming company so much as a hobbiest/model company. Until GW decides change mentality to be a gaming company and focus on the game aspect, theres no motivation for them to switch. Besides that, GW will not want the extra overhead of having to hire good painters in the numbers required to supply the market, remember they are in cost cutting mode and having to add that cost would signifigantly increase the cost per mini.
