I'll miss the GW Green Knight figure. Shame if they stop selling such a beautiful miniature.

My shop is just leaving all the Fantasy stuff on the shelf until it's gone. Everything is the normal price (my LGS gives 20% discount plus 5% loyalty discount on GW stuff) and they simply aren't restocking anything once it sells out. The one exception to that is Demons since they are also used in 40k.

So no, at my LGS the stuff is just going to sit until it gets bought or until they decide they need the space for a new product and just ship the remaining Fantasy things off to auction. Lines going OOP in a game that no longer truly exists don't get much play around here whether they're on sale or not anyway.

They don't even stock AoS. So few people wanted it that the only ones who do play it have to special order it.


Edit: I just googled ablutions and apparently it does not including dropping a duece. I should have looked it up early sorry for any confusion. - Baldsmug

Psiensis on the "good old days":
"Kids these days...
... I invented the 6th Ed meta back in 3rd ed.
Wait, what were we talking about again? Did I ever tell you about the time I gave you five bees for a quarter? That's what you'd say in those days, "give me five bees for a quarter", is what you'd say in those days. And you'd go down to the D&D shop, with an onion in your belt, 'cause that was the style of the time. So there I was in the D&D shop..."

All the local shops were selling stuff at regular price. When the rumors first started flying (before anything was official), I started scooping kits up, just for my own sake. Always wanted a Necrosphix.

Then people went bonkers on eBay so I had to let a couple of kits go.

All I wanted was a Throgg.

Bonkers high or bonkers low?

Man, if they ever squat The Empire it's going to get ugly.

Bonkers high. Way too high. Double or triple the costs even according to GW.

Yet not even a single Throgg getting scalped even on eBay.
