Let me tell you something about statistics,
Statistically i would have 250'000 CHF in my bank account just for free use. Since i am Swiss.
My bank account total is 312.70 CHF. and about 70% of swiss people will have a somewhat similar bank account after paying all their Socials expenditure, taxes, etc.

GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"

Just gonna get sanguius without the base. Forgeworlds pricing is absolutely absurd.
Imagine how much the Khan will cost with two different models possibly. Also why does this book cost more than all the others?

It doesn’t. The last book was the same price.

Do not advocate for recasting in this (or any) thread on Dakka.
It's OK to post "the price is too high". It's not OK to post "I'll be buying a recast / here's where to buy a recast / etc etc". I had to make some edits above regarding this.
We want manufacturers to participate on Dakka, and this kind of posting has always been against our site policy. If you have any questions, just PM me - thanks.

Unfortunately it doesn't work that way for niche luxury products. Even if everybody on a modest income who wanted one chose not to buy a Rolex because they're too expensive, Rolex aren't going to lower their prices because so long as they can rake in the cash selling at ludicrous prices to people for whom money is essentially meaningless beyond being a way to "keep score" they have no incentive to cater to the riff raff. FW may not be quite that ridiculous, but they've made it perfectly clear that they see their primary customer base as the people who can drop a grand and a half on a single model and not even feel it.
They're still a long, long way off pricing things high enough to upset their "whales", and those are the only people who's wallet-based voting matters.

Sanguinius is by the same sculptor who did every Primarch except Lorgar and Mortarion (Simon Egan).

We're serious about not condoning recasting in this thread. Since two warnings have already been posted, further posts of that nature will simply be removed (as I've just done).

Easy enough to kitbash him out of storm cast and the wings of your choice. It's not like you NEED to pay $$$ to play him.
Not to mention the many, many warrior angel types available on the market.
if you like the model, buy the model, if you want Sanquinius, well there's more than enough options.

Well said, I can see that model getting knocked over accidentally a lot too.
So long as the model used is roughly primarch size I'm cool with it.

Its really not. If you haven't seen the model in the flesh (with diorama base) you can't really judge. I was of the same opinion until I saw it at the weekender. Photos do not do it justice at all. its probably the best primarch model yet.
As such I was one of those guys and paid full price for the model and base. Sorry guys! I was fortunate enough to have the disposable income a few months ago before my upcoming wedding sucked up all the rest.

Biggest issue with the model is that the pose is for the diorama base. Without it it looks bit weird. With it it makes more sense.
Well. People wanted dynamic poses with leaping models and they are getting it
Sculpting wise etc I like it. Likely get it one day. Not with base though for sure since that's limited time available and hobby budget does not cover it before that runs out.

Yeah you need the base really. Although Modellers with any level of skill should be able to create a diorama base for him with their enemy of choice under his spear/sword. in that way its actually quite cool.

Don't suppose you could take some measurements please? I am wondering if my Heresy Angel will be suitable size wise.

I havent built him yet. got loads to do before I get to him unfortunately. From the weekender, if I remember right, his height was maybe 4-5 inches. he's taller than the other Primarchs due to his wings and display base.
