No, no, no.

It'll have a Harpy and a Crone, a single Toxicrene, two Tyrannocytes, a single Haruspex ... umm... what else do I nee... I mean what else would Tyranid players want... 3 Zoanthropes, 3 Venomthropes, 6 Warriors and... the Swarmlord.

Yes. I need, I mean all Tyranid players need those exact things.

If I can't get my Lizardmen box from last year assembled and painted by December I am not worthy of another box. Jeez.

Love that they do these boxes, but the fomo aspect of it kills me!

Don't feel too bad. I've got one of these, these and two each of this and this still unopened.

The endless grey can be fun.

*grabby hands!*

Yea I went a bit nuts last year, still have 2 unopened Ad Mech boxes. Hopefully the rumours are true so I can just stick with a nids and a chaos box.

Good lord man, that's a lot of dakka bots!

I hope the BA one will be nice. Curious if it'll have any non Primaris units in it. Personally I hope for a new Primaris cc jump troop type, a primarised charakter and maybe an im- or repulsor. All together with some new rules in PA3 that brings them on new marine levels. One can dream.

I made a pledge with myself that I would keep my miniatures stuff at home limited to one big green cupboard. Despite putting stuff in work, an exemption for terrain and some extreme real life tetris, the cupboard is now overflowing.

Damn fomo! If there is a Nid one with a good deal on Warriors and mid level beasties, I will be sorely tempted.

To be frank (Hi, I'm Frank) stockpiling on discount boxes may not be the daftest thing to do taking into account the continously rising prices... Everyone gets priced out eventually...

Haha, last Christmas’ one, not the Apocalypse one. I love me some dakkabots but I don’t need another dozen!

IDK if it'll match what you already painted, but I did the whole Seraphon xmas box set in about a month with contrast paints. That stuff was made for scaly and bumpy skin.

Best I can do is a bunch of Warriors, some Gargoyles, Genestealers, and a Broodlord.

The only general hint at the Christmas boxes is that, thus far, they tend not to double up too much on the Start Collecting boxes.

In fact some in the past have been quite good, in that they would combine with a start collecting box to form a nice starting army (which was attractive back in the days of eBay sales - less so now).
