GW have announced the boxed set contents, price and date of both the Warhammer Fantasy Battle and Warhammer 40k boxed sets.

The Fantasy Battle version's official release is 24th April (I believe advance order purchasers get it 2 weeks before). Price = £125 GBP. The 40k set is the same with the addition of 1 Soul Grinder, oh and it costs £160 GBP.

I've posted all the details and a piccie on my blog with the link to the official site etc.. here:-

Warhammer Battle Chaos Daemons Spearhead

Personally, I like the Bloodletters and the Masque most (there's a sneak peek of the Masque on my blog too - in the right hand sidebar under "GW Online picks").

I don't think I will ever be a Daemon person myself though, I'm mre of a blood drinking vamp than a soul eating Daemon

That's $279 in American money. Or that's what their gonna charge you anyway.

If 10 Bloodletters is $22.00A, and Neil at the Warstore will set them at a 20% discount, then they'll cost me $17.60A or $17.40C. Not bad.

Wow, that's a whole lotta money for a whole lotta ugly.

I will just pick up a soul grinder for the fun of it and call it done.

I love that the fantasy box has the 40K bases on the models.

That'll learn them Fantasy players, with their square bases, and beady eyes.

$279USD is a great price compared to the UK advance order price...

Annnd here's the fantasy demon box, just 40k sans soulgrinder. Round bases = hilarious.

Maybe they're making all Fantasy Demons skirmishers?

More likely they're just very lazy squigs over there in the 'Eavy Metal cave

- Salvage

So ~$24 for demonettes. Thats not too bad. I may convert them with beast heads for that loving feeling.

Note: can't find the current demonettes on ebay...

I think their using the same miniatures for both the 40k picture and fantasy picture, which would explain why they have the round bases.

But wow... I mean were they really THAT lazy? Or are they really thinking they need to have every possible miniature they can sell... well out there to be sold and not painted up?!

It's clearly because LOTR isn't grimly dark enough, so they're going to start a new and vaguely supported notion of EVEN BADDER BAD GUYS in LOTR that Tolkien wrote about for a couple lines in some book.
