Apologies for the self promotion. There is a thread running regarding the Mantic Free Ghoul offer we are working on in Dakka discussions but many of you wont have seen the chance to get the freebies. And to make sure as many of you here as possible get hold of them I am posting here.

Righto...

We have thousands and thousands of Mantic Ghoul Sprues to give away free, yes free. The only catch is that you need to sign up to the Wayland and Mantic Newsletters.
You can do this via this link here:

http://www.waylandgames.co.uk/index.php?_a=viewDoc&docId=12

It is very important you click on the confirmation email you will receive after signing up.

We send them out in batches so please bear with us as its quite a task.


What else are we giving away at the moment?

Well we are giving away a free copy of the Mantic Journal magazine with every order on www.waylandgames.co.uk placed since May 21st.

I will try and answer any questions here, but please use our helpdesk link on our site for any order related issues.

Still waiting for mine :(

I ordered mine 2 days ago!

I signed up, got a free ghoul sprue, and am very tempted to order some more Mantic items..

If I order at this point, I think I get the free Magazine.. but would I ALSO get a second ghoul sprue?

2 Different offers.

Newsletter signup for the Ghouls.

Any order comes with the Free Magazine.

Hope that helps.

and I am looking at getting the Mantic Bag.. my cart says that shipping is free? Am I reading/calculating that right? Even to the USA?

Yep thats correct, Shipping tends to be free on our site Mantic Privateer and FOW items.

Even for GW items you will be surprised how much we charge for Airmail to the US In a good way.

Err...how much DO you charge for airmail to the US?

Staggered by a few of your offers. Am I reading this right, the Warlord Roman Army Box has 124 plastics for £42.50? Crikey.

Do you attend any wargames shows by the way?

That box is only £50 on Warlord's site. Its a great package though. I got one at Adepticon for $70us I think.
They were out out of the box so they built one from the stock they had and they threw in the roman emperors.

Depends on the weight and size of the item, but we subsidize it for the US an non European locations.


You can put items in your cart, click on view basket and you will see the Shipping estimator there.

Hi Howard,

We are starting to.

Our first was Salute this year.. there is some mention of the vast size of our stand.. as we essentially brought a 9m by 10m shop with us

I made a basket on both Wayland and Maelstrom (2 discount online retailers) and came up with the following results for prices.
The basket is as follows; Imperial Guard Codex (English), Cadian Battleforce, Cadian Heavy Weapons Squad, Cadian Shock troops.

The items costs £85.30 on Wayland and £95.77 on Maelstrom.
Now let's add the shipping costs and see it go up (or will it?)

Wayland has £4.00 shipping airmail shipping.
Maelstrom has free international shipping so it's + £0 (woohoo?).

Wayland total: £89.30
Maelstrom total: £95.77

*This is a Theoretical order and I am not going to purchase it. It's only purpose is to demonstrate the low shipping costs Wayland has been offering. The shipping country selected was Canada, AFAIK the rates are the same for US.

Personally this is how I proceed to decide where to place my orders (except I do it on more websites to make sure I save the most) and always end up with Wayland cheaper (and they gave me free ghouls!!).

Only my 2 cents.

Waylands is indeed king, though their points system is a bit fethed up. In general, I know about how they have a problem and such, so they didn't increase VAT prices or whatever, I'm talking they just have a very confusing system to give you points. As in, if your paypal email address isn't the same as the one you signed up on the site with, you have to do a bunch of bs to get the points.

I didn't even know they had points, and my paypal isn't the same e-mail as my site login...

I got my free ghoul last week. There were two on the sprue, which was a nice suprise, but no bases were included.

I just signed up, I am curious as to what the price comparison is now with the lower gbp.

Re the Paypal thing, our webstore account system is email address based, if a customer then pays via a Paypal address that is different then Paypal inserts a new address into our database. so if you intend to order and pay via Paypal if you can use your paypal address it reduces the number of where is my order email questions we get

On the subject of Loyalty Points, we have a bug with it that meant we suspended it. Its unlikely to be reactivated until the new site is live, however anybody that had points in their accounts is getting them migrated to the new store when during our data migration. hope that helps guys.

I received the ghouls from this offer, and they're really great figs. Thumbs up to Mantic. They are a bit smaller than GW figs, but not by all that much.

Me and the wife want to order, do we have to use different mailing addresses?

Wayland is the only place I get my Warhammer stuff from these days. The only downside is shipping across the pond takes a bit of time but that's not their fault at all... and even then I'm not complaining because it gives me time to paint what I already have (yet I still don't do it for some reason ).

Cheers for the ghoul sprue!

For the record, it appears that the newsletter subscription form doesn't accept Scandinavian characters. Having them in your name or address will pop up a "system error occurred" message.

No one accepts Scandinavian characters, or Scandinavians for that matter. Away with ye!

Hi Agamemnon,

It does already have a note on the sign up page sayng "Please make sure you only enter plain text in the fields. Thx!"

Awesome. I signed up a couple minutes ago. Great site you have going there! I'd buy from you if I bought online. I usually prefer to just by from a store,but I'm just that kind of person,haha.

Any estimate on when it'll get here? I live on the east coast of the US.

Well, that's cultural differences at work then, because to me, ä, ö and å are included in the definition of "plain text".

Hi Agamemnon again.

We mean Plain text with no funny squiggly things sitting on top or underneath. Sorry
