Are third party Bitz manufacturers "parasites" on the Hobby?
No, they supply much-desired alternative models and parts. They enhance the hobby and I buy some myself.
I don't buy them personally, but I'm glad they are available.
I only buy ones that are part of a whole different IP (Like Kings of War) and not that are just "knockoffs".
I only buy them for GWS kits where there is no OEM model (such as Tervigons). I see them as a neccesary evil.
I don't buy them at all because I play in a GWS store and they are not allowed.
I don't buy them at all because I think they are robbing GWS of sales and I prefer to support GWS.
I only buy bits to mod my models; but I don't buy whole kits because I think they take sales away from GWS.
I only buy bits to mod my models; but I don't buy entire kits because I don't think they are well done.

GW release 1/3 of a model range and expect players to sit and wait for months maybe years for a 2nd wave etc... why they cant produce the entire range at once is beyond me since while they are releasing the first wave they usually release other stuff as well.



They've changed their strategy to doing exactly what you suggest; they will no longer release models in waves, but all at one time.
