Subject: Would there be a market for old starter sets from GW?
Really? I recall most folks saying it was a great value, especially given the fact that the game is wicked fun and the pieces (both the board and models) are gorgeous.

I remember it well because I thought they were freakin' insane. But maybe that was on Warseer, you know them. Needless to say I snatched one for myself immediately.
The old meta is dead and the new meta struggles to be born. Now is the time of munchkins.

This is the unfortunate truth.GW has likely made back all the money they put into that mold by selling boxed sets. They are unlikely to continue to sell that sprue when they can make 2-3 times as much selling more expensive boxed sets of the same units.
