Take a look at Gamezone Miniatures.
Their Mournful Knights are awesome and available individually to as not to get duplicated champs, standards and musicians.

Yes. That's how capitalism works.

Well, another reason to put the rich through a wood chipper

Yeah they're never going to re price an existing product because it didn't sell very well. A huge part of their business model is that their products need to be perceived to have a high value. If they just lowered prices due to pressure from their point of view it would be opening the floodgates.

Instead it would inform pricing for future products.

They do but only through 'stealthy' discounts where it is reboxed; liberators went from 5 for $50 to 10 for $75 for example.

That’s a good shout actually.
Most basic cav kits doubled in size for less than double the price.
They also did it with some of the troops like savage orruk boys.

Hoping they do the same with daughters of khaine and give us a 20 box for cheaper now lol.

For sure, effectively the same thing with Start Collectings. They discount bundled items, but not the exact same product generally.
