On forgeworld there are 2 stormblades listed. A arkurion pattern ad one listed as simply Stormblade.

Why is the Arkurion £95 while the other is £150?

Thank you.

I would guess that the one listed as "Stormblade" has a detailed interior much like the mars patten shadowsword, which, like the Arkurion patten shadowsword is £55 more expensive.

Not quite.

The £150 is the all resin one that came out waaaay before GW did plastic super-heavies. The £95 is resin parts with the plastic kit as the base.
The £150 does not have interior detail btw, only the Mars Shadowsword has that.

You have the Price backwards the 150 on has the interior detail and the 95 one does not.

The Arkurion Pattern (as you said) is Resin and Plastic, whereas the Mars Pattern (the 150 with interior detailing) is all resin.

With that said; I have a $99(USD) All plastic kit direct from GW and love it, I could not see a reason to buy the resin kits as we have the cheaper plastic out now.

Because you cannot make the stormblade with the GW kit.
