To start an army up of IG and play at about 1500 points you are looking at some hefty increases to already hefty prices across the board.

+1. I can't agree more. Especially after starting my third army. I've learned a lot from the first two.

I'm scratch building mine from scale aircraft kits. Cheaper, and I like the chance to tinker with modeling.

Try the Eldar Falcon's new price. From around £25 to £31 :(
20% is a pain.

Am I the only one who can smell their desperation?

They've been able to keep in the black by severely cutting back on their retail expenditures and of course through the price hikes.

Now, however, they've pretty much trimmed all the fat they could (short of just closing down all their stores), and their prices seem to be reaching a tipping point for many players in that even second-hand/discounted models are too pricey.

Unless the Hobbit brings them a slew of cash (which I honestly don't really see happening), they will be royally screwed in a year or two.
