That depends on what you're really asking.

No - There are no sites except forgeworld that sells official "extended universe" stuff.
Yes - There are several sites that sells gap fillers and conversion bits. Pig-iron productions. Chapterhouse studios etc.

Depends on what you mean.

Forge World is just a company and site that produces (sub-par) resin models for gaming. In this sense, it is merely ONE of MANY companies that do this. (if they didn't produce sub-par models, their replacement policy would be more restrictive).

IT is the ONLY one legally allowed to make models suitable for GWs games. The other companies make pieces and models that can be used for a variety of other scales, games and formats. Regardless of whether they can be used with GW's stuff or not.

Some of them produce SUPERIOR castings to FW.
Admittedly, they don't have the same demand and time constraints - as demand increases, quality usually is the first to suffer.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

This is one of the most hilariously vague questions I've heard on these forums. There are dozens of different ways to interpret this, and unless you give more details, you're not going to hear many of them.

Check out my Youtube channel!

How could you interpret please tell as some people seem to get it.I dont understand why you would think anything else other than are their any sites that makes and sell(i mean company but they sell through a site) so yes it is relativly vague but not hilariously vague(more like a vague doctor)

yes there are plenty of companies who have webstores which sell resin wargaming models and miniatures. there are also stores and webstores that sell other companies resin wargaming models

Also, this is not a dig, read your subject title, then read your response, above, then read the subject header again...I'm pretty sure you will see what I mean.

Well, the gist of the thing is that the question "are there sites like forgeworld?" doesn't qualify in what manner you expect sites to be like forgeworld. For example, I could argue that this site is "like forgeworld" in that it is:
A) A website
B) Predominantly occupied with Games-Workshop related products
C) In particular concerned with models/modelling
D) Etc, etc.

On another note, "More like a vague doctor" is going in my repository of offhand gibberish phrases. I'll put it between "No, I can't hear you worse" and "I like when... Oh wait, no, I hate that."

Hey, you know your acting like a real vague doctor, right now. You wrote "etc,etc" without a noun before it, which is pretty much like a vague doctor.

Also you should try litko. I heard they make space corridors and industrial towers. They'd look great with your genethiefs and blood destroyers
