What are the best and worst value pieces in the FW range? Please provide links to illustrate, or pics if you are hosting them yourself.

For best, I like this Earthshaker emplacement, they seem to give you a lot for £30(+12-15%)

Worst I think is the Armageddon pattern Basilisk. It's a very nice looking kit, but for £45 (+12-15%), I'd prefer a £25 Basilisk and some plasticard, I think I could make an identical copy.

Yeah it looks damn nice. It's what inspired this thread - I briefly considered shelling out for one, but my modelling instincts kicked in about 3 seconds after that.

I quite like some of the FW monstrous creatures for value (and you have not provided a link Yak, I also love how the HHs look so I don't need to check them, but I have to go see what the spores look like!)

Good contenders AlexCage. I have 2 rocketpod Sentinels on my FW purchase list for the new year, they're awesome and good value, and you're right about those Centaurs too, I had the same thought when they were first released (in fact a lot of the DkoK artillery and associated vehicles seem expensive to me)

I quite like the Tallarn RRs (from a strictly P&M view). As for the Titans, a lot of people on Warseer (where I also made this topic) say that they're low value (complex, expensive, not that big etc), but I think a lot of the value comes from the uniqueness of the model. They seem to like the Chaos Dreads quite a lot though, whereas I agree with this thread (that they're good but quite expensive compared to GW Dreads)

How do people feel about this thing, for close to £1000?

And what about the super-heavy tanks (and the smaller - Macharius etc) no that the plastic Baneblade is on the scene? (I've considered a Macharius - I could bash up a 1/35 Tamiya for 1/6 of the price, but I do so like the look of that tank).
