Hi, Dakka. Now, when is the Space Marine megaforce coming out?

**InnerLight**

December 3rd, probable pre-orders on Black Friday, expected MSRP between 200 and 250.

**KingJonnus**

Still cant decide whether im going to buy this or not..

**Ogryn**

Alright, and it will cost about 200, right?

**Kanluwen**

$200-$250 USD.

Somewhere in that price bracket, while it seems very vague the $250 price was what Megaforces used to be but we might see them for cheaper as a loss leader product for the holiday season since they're likely going to be splash releases.

**Ogryn**

One employee at my second FLGS calculated how much it would be if you bought everything separately. with the Megaforce, you save well over 70 USD.

**InnerLight**

If it weighs in around 200, you save 120 by buying the high elf box, so I'd believe it.

**kronk**

It depends on the final price in USD if it's a good deal. Looking at the picture that was floating around, the contents are:

Command Squad
Commander
Land Raider Crusader/Redeemer
Drop Pod
Land Speeder Storm
5-man Scout Squad with bolter or Bolt Pistols and CCW (Not snipers) or shotguns.
Venerable Dreadnought
10-man tactical Squad x2

Edit: If the above assumptions are correct, the retail price of the above from the GW website is 328.

Kronk: you forgot that the Scouts can also be made to have Shotguns.

I remember the old megaforce being out a few years back, I was quite disappointed to find out that they don't do it any more. So, my question is, anybody know if this will be coming out in UK? Y'know, the place that invented Space Marines..

If it comes out in Australia, and hell, even New Zealand, then Im pretty damn sure its coming out in the UK as well. I just think that particular pic was just a snippet from the Aussie WD, is all.

Yes.
I have the UK/General Europe WD with the book, and all prices are first in pounds.
I think thats a yes..

**Harriticus**

Megaforces are actually a fairly good deal. Recently bought the old Eldar megaforce on Ebay. 20 Guardians, 2 Weapons Platforms, 10 Dire Avengers, 4 Jetbikes, a Vyper, a Wraithlord, and a Falcon. Came out to about $210. Just with that my Eldar army is already about 75% done.
