One thing which made me laugh a few days ago in my GW: I was looking over all the dark eldar models and realized that only one was missing due to the fact that my store didn't stock him; the Dark Eldar Grotesque. Now this made me laugh quite a bit, but made me wonder if the fact that it was such a bad sculpt turned so many people off that now it is mostly only available via the internet, or if its just my store which doesnt stock him for a unique reason.

So....Does your store contain him, or do they know better?

(sort of bias question, I know

)

Grotesques?

Man, I dunno if I would go that far... but some of these dudes definitely need to be introduced to Mr. Soap and Mrs. Deodorant.

Guy near me named Norm has a WH40k shop bigger than the GW shop in Philadelphia, PA. Toy Soldier Galleries in Ligonier, PA. He's run out of room for stuff that he's debating putting shelves on the ceiling for WH40k space. He never changes his prices either. If you dig in his shop and find a model, be it for $5 or higher, thats the price he sells. He figures, if they didn't sell at $30 for a predator, why would it sell at $60. Worth a look if you need stuff, he also orders and pro paints to.

You mean the one on Cottman Avenue?

That's not exactly hard - the place is essentially a closet.

No.

That sounds pretty cool but...what does this have to do with the thread exactly? :p

@Psienesis: You know, i've been having a pretty bad day today...that joke cheered me right up!

**Abyssel**

@array: no he's on N Market st now.

my point is, if i go in there i will bet you i can find it, and if not he can find it for me.

**Jihadin**

with had to order two grots from the Bunker in Bowie recently. Maybe due the number of actual players of DE?

**thenoobbomb**

Arent grotesques webstore only?

**Jollydevil**

Im (pretty) sure that my flgs sells grotesques.
They (semi) recently got a stock of all of the (semi) new de models, and im pretty sure that was in there

**Blitza da warboy**

@abyssel: ahhh, that makes more sense.

@the noobbomb: Yeah, I wasnt sure about that, so I made this thread; the answer is nope it seems

@Jollydevil: seems like your shop has better stock than mine! >_<
