Or the Resin on these tanks in the form of doors, Turrets, Repressors. Painted by BTP as a gift to my from my wife.

THE most expensive piece I've bought was a Valkyrie flyer. It was a PITA to rebuild and put together and I got rid of it after priming the model as I didn't want it around reminding me of the "quality" of their pieces. I'm not a noob when it comes to resin, either, having cut my teeth on garage kits from Japan and the USA and even armorcast before trying FW.
I've not bought any FW since.

My only purchase was a Wave Serpent, back in 3rd edition when transports were king and Wave Serpents were not available to buy.
Not being ric, or a minimaxing cheesebucket I stuck with just the one.
I am in no hurry to go back to Forgeworld for anything else. Though I am off and on tempted to get a pair of Aurora Eldar light cruisers.
I am big into titans and such, but happier to get old Armorcast.

I heartily recommend them, they're just awesome (especially the straffed ones  )
I agree.

They're incredible for CoD games.

The most expensive GW model I own is the Baneblade.
I don't own any FW stuff aside from their FREE Catalogs.
As I can do Imperial Armor conversions with plasticard, I refuse to pay FW prices for models that I think I can do better jobs on.

OT: I did buy one of Forgeworld's Warhounds so that's the most expensive thing I've gotten. Now I just need a weekend of free time. Does FW sell those?

Door set to make an Inquisitorial Stoormtrooper Rhino. Got those 4 years ago and they're still in the bags. And the Rhino is still shrink-wrapped in the box as well as the Stormtroopers and a blister of Assualt Weapon Stormtroopers. I'll get to it someday.

I got a baneblade donkey's years ago for £150 - it's taken me so long to build it and paint it in between everything else, it still isn't finished and of course you can get plastic baneblades now!
I do like their stuff and have a Valkyrie, various replacement parts (I love their icon packs etc.) and had an Iron Warriors dreadnought (sold that on). The resin is OK once you learn to work with it.
