$1,000,000 and a 50% discount

Lizardmen wave comes too little too late. They should have been releasing boxes of 3 terradons from the start.

That and the already ridiculously priced Saurus BSB is going up yet again...in an inferior material.

I am a little happy that they're going to release kroxigors in boxes of 3 (much like the Yhetti's/Treekin/Ushabti), but a single Chameleon stalker (if anyone actually knows how large the model is) for a 30% hike!? We're stepping into Kroot Hound territory here.

Chakax is a double edged sword, model will be easier to assemble in finecast, however the sheer cost is overwhelming.

Dark Elf price increases are heinous, it's like they only want to see plastic DE armies.

But how else are they going to convince us that the new plastic Witch Elves, Black Guard, and Executioners are a bargain at $41.25 US for 10?

I'm sorry, I mean $50.00 US for 10. Remember it will be June next year and the next price hike will be in affect when they probably come out.

I really wanted a fine cast Slann.. but now that casual fantasy is basically completely dead at my store I see no purpose to purchase more fantasy. Those price increases for the dark elves are pretty crazy even by GW standards

If those Kroxigor really do go down in price, I might consider them. My guess is that it is only a pack of two, that way you have to buy two packs to get all three sculpts.

Which is why I'll be FW Fimir for "Counts As" Krox. Still significantly cheaper.

Kind of funny that this costs $40..



I wonder about anyone who can, in all consciousness, take this to the till and hand over that kind of money for it. $40 is absolutely mental.

The WD June confrms a new Finecast wave for Tomb Kings, Dark Elves, Lizardmen and O&G. Seems like all of them are direct only.

In addition we get these two new plastic miniatures:

I love that half the Gobbo's height is base.

That gobbo is pretty good, although Platuan4th is correct that the base is a bit silly (easily reduced with a knife though).

The real question is, does this portend a future reduction in goblin size back to the "correct" size as shown by night goblins? To my eye he looks smaller than the current plastic goblins.

Yes! Sweet plastics. GW's been rocking these plastic character kits pretty hard now. I would love to see the common goblins and wolf riders redone in a way that didn't make it seem their body mass was 75% head and hands.

The Plastic Savage Orc Boss will be converted into an Ork Weirdboy.

I do hope GW continues this plastic character stuff in 40k 6th edition.
