If they put out Space Hulk tomorrow, same as the last release, at the same price, I'd buy it right now. I did a thread on that and overwhelming majority would either by the same Space Hulk or one with additional rules, encounters, and some new models. Given the rate they are pumping out (admittedly garbage) scenarios and new plastic models, you'd think one new Nid, one new Blood Angel, a new scenario, $100 and Bob's Your Uncle.

I lost count of the amount of former gamers that came in my local GW store only to turn away when they found out Space Hulk had sold out.

So many lost potential customers with that one.

You don't need much for a space hulk game though, just some paper-print corridors and rooms, a box of termies (of your favorite chapter) and a box of stealers, then some dice.

Make your own hulk!

That's not really the answer to the point that is being made though.

Right.
When we make our own hulk it will be more intresting with more options.

Or it will lack the quality production of a companies board game pieces, like Fantasy Flight, and lack the unique models that are desirable over the current ugly genestealer models and lackluster terminator kits. I don't see any Blood Angels specific terminator kits, either.

Oh, and all of that for $100.

Swing and a miss.

Thekbob, the

To complain that GW have put out a cheaper bundle of models that they sell at very high individual prices is a bit like complaining that your husband is beating you less hard than before.

Shhhh. People here on dakka get upset when you mention wife battered syndrome. They can't take the truth.

People more than likely get upset over Thats analogy because comparing a high price on a product that you dont agree with to domestic abuse is offensive and unnecessary. I hope to god you never see for yourself the effects of it on someone you love.

It looks like maybe this sold out? If so, good.
Yeah, it's great how people who wanted it can't buy it

Pretty terrible if you ask me. There'll be plenty of people who won't even know about the box's existence until after it's sold out.

And again... It's only sold out on the webstore. Go to frontlinegaming.org and order one at 25% off or any other web store or your local GW or your local FLGS.

Yeah, between that and the phrase "wallet rape" this thread is not exactly a shining moment in gender relations.

You tell 'em OP.

Like, actually tell them, rather than bitch about it here.

This is good advice.
