The SM Strikeforce is a really great deal.

I have to admit, the tyranid deal with 95 minis (one of them a carnifex) is actually rather good once you buy it off a 25% discount site.

Competitive bundle-deal compared to Mantic restic, but not with Mantic hard plastic... but then restic is a bitch to work with, and mantic hasn't bothered releasing hard plastic for nearly 3 years now so the GW product wins as far as this specific large bundle box situation goes.

There's a long way to go before their offering will be anything other than total garbage though, for starters the rules need a clean re-write and reset in the way that 3rd edition 40k and 6th edition warhammer cleaned up everything, reset the lists to a reasonably balanced state and ditched all the junk that had been piled on to the rules over multiple editions.

My dissatisfaction with Mantic is at an all time high, if GW start becoming value for money they've won me back.

What's Mantic doing????
