It's great! I love it!
The details are good and its pretty cool, but I'll miss metal.
Meh. Metal was just as good.
Don't like it. Resin is terrible to work with and metal felt better.
I'm not going to buy any finecast models. metal all the way!
I don't buy miniatures (what are you doing on this forum?)

Old Name is Fine
Failcrap
Failcast
Fullocrap

I suggest a new ''What 40k Army Is most in need of an update'' the other one is outdated.

And the new one shouldn't have multiple choice in my opinion.

Haters and jealous people voting your work down out of spite.

Ahh! You spend all this time, blood, sweat and tears painting a mini to the best of your ability and some hater, who probably can't paint a barn door with an 8" roller gives your work some stupid, jealous rating coz they've got nothing better going on in they're sad little lives.
It's not constructive, if it was they'd comment and tell you why they didn't like it but no they just vote your work down and don't give other aspiring painters the right to see your work and be inspired to progress.
I can take low marks from great artists but not from "splashers" with no eye for colour who chuck paint on a mini like an office worker on a paintball "team building day".
You know who you are and should be ashamed of your jealous nature. If you don't like my work tell me why and we can both be better people.

On average, how many concerts do you go to per year?

How good do you paint your avarage troopers? (Standard Space Marines, Imperial guard, Orks etc.)

-I don't paint them very well.
-Ok, they aren't masterpieces, but not horrible either.
-I paint them quite well.
-I make masterpieces out of them.

Title: Have you/will you stop buying from Games Workshop?

Poll options:

1. I am still buying or planning to buy hobby games from GW.
2. I am only completing projects/armies I have already got, then I am buying no more armies.
3. I gave up over the recent problems in the last couple months.
4. I stopped buying last year. (2010)
5. I stopped buying the year before that. (2009)
6. I stopped buying a while ago. (2006-2008)
7. I stopped buying early last decade. (2000-2005)
8. I stopped buying ages ago. (90's)
9. I stopped buying when they got rid of non GW games. (80's)
10. I never bought into the GW hobby, exception for painting and modeling supplies or the odd conversion piece.
11. I never bought anything from GW on principle.

OP Text: We have asked about people leaving GW before for one reason or other but who here has actually done so and when. All options except the first and last one allow for someone to have given up on GW and yet buy a replacement paint or even a single miniature or replacement codex for an army, so long as you have for all intents and purposes given up on buying GW armies.
The reason for giving up is not part of this thread, some may have converted to Warmachine, others priced out of the market, otherws dislike one rules change too many, others may have refused to buy on principle.

My poll so I should start off. I stopped buying anything substantial from GW in 2007, I have since been tempted by nice sculpts, but not tempted enough to win me back. I may buy a paint or two, or even a boxset for an army I have or to convert for another game. But GW lost my real custom three price hikes ago. I can no longer afford the 'GW hobby', I am by no means through with wargaming though and have seen fit to spend my money instead on Fantasy Flight, Warmachine, Dystopian Wars and Rackham products.
