About a week before we moved here miniature market moved and. Different lgs took their spot. They moved to an industrial complex and took over two warehouses. Supposedly they bought out and filled two more in the same area. Now they are buying the location near me which will have 4x the salesfloor and a plastic crack warehouse to rival.....nobody as nobody is hat stinking big. I'm going to try and drive by it and take pics of before and after . I like ordering from Neil at thewarstore, but the nearness means I don't pay shipping but I do pay taxes.

Closest thing I have near me is the Keep in Princeton, WV a small flgs. To have such a massive warehousing of the plastic crack would overload me!

Well Shas, everyone is getting the leviathin. So many now, good work on yours. And all the troopers dear god man.

i think it is my only salvation that anything hobby plastic involves me driving with public transport to some location some would call...well...lesser districts in my town...so that keeps me a tad away from spending there too much money... and everything miniature related... well let me put it that way... i woudn´t even know where by foot or car i would be able to get me leviathan...so i am safe...for now

Yep, 100+ Great coats
100+UAMC
67 eisenkrn
30+Catachan
50 or so Vostroyans
100+ mix of cadian/Valhallan, etc.

I think I'll wait for the guard book to come out next year then go nuts on dreamforge.
@vik, I think I've seen Battlefield Berlin is a stockist for dreamforge.

Gotta see what is truth and was mere speculations when that IG codex is released.

I got o believe that they will still have troops. With the disappearance of finecast and metals I can see them releasing a plastic mordian, tallarn, or steel legion sprue set. But I think they are just about tanked out. I know there's still a need for a plastic hydra, and a couple variants, but really new ground there to play unless they make a mid sized SUV for the troops.

Likely the rumor of plastic stormtroopers with accessories will occur,,,,,5men a box though, with the new paradigm of base squad sized box sets like the 5 necrons or marines or such per boxes

Ohyeah, check your inbox Theo, and your paypal

5 per box, more $ per box equals 200% price hike...... Nice

Check your inbox, then check your front doorstep on tuesday

Thanks

Plastic stormtroopers......that's a 10 year old rumor

They are arriving via plastic thunder hawk early 2014 with the next apocalypse book

Players have been wanting plastic stormtroopers as long as they were wanting plastic great coats, my first discussions of several modified crisis suits were on their old site in 2000, took them till 2002/3 to have forgeworld make my ideas real, XV-81/84 and 89, now the 89 idea is part of the add ons for a suit, and the idea of a larger, more hard point command option suit finally comes about as It was also discussed by myself and others as was a collaborative idea for a fast attack light vehicle which got split into the tetra and piranha. The point is anything GW gets from the player/fanbase seems to take them years to finally come to grips and work on making a model of the things. Likely a debate has been should they look like the original swat like mask wearing ones? or the Kasrkin looking ones?

This


or this


or go with several design styles and make money off the results? there are fans of either design. Also, what will be the optional parts?

I want non-Cadian options is what I want!

There are 80-fething -billion Space Marine options in plastic, and 2 for Guard.

Strategically, Storm Troopers are going to be one of your opponents first targets (right after your HQ and Artillery) no matter how you play, they DO cause brown stains even in power armor. I just want them to go out in style and buy me a few turns to try and take an objective. Every Marine player's weakness is their ego and overconfidence in their units.

Plastic Valhallans/Tallarns/Mordians/Steel Legion for a start.

Once the bricks land, I will assemble one and pose some IG and other troops for a scale reference.

There were plastic stormtroopers........It was however in 2nd Ed

well... to be honest... why should GW do plastic soldiers for IG anyways? look at mad robot for valhalan, or the plethora of praetorian look alike producers...tallarn is probably due soon from someone too... i think GW over the years has dug it´s own grave... and probably rightly so... i bet it will be an overpriced flyer and a new tank... and that´s that...

also.. dave...i have an idea!

Yes, there were, and they had exactly 1 pose and were all British ww2 commando-looking clones.

Why should they? Because they have gotten exactly $0.00 from Dave in 2013 and they need my money to feed Mat Ward's nurgle babies.

LOL...told my wife just the other hour i will need some more mecharite red soon...tho... it won´t be in a pot anymore... this will be the first dropper bottle one from another range ...see GW...?

If mat ward writes the codex, then everystormtrooper will aspire to be a ultramarine tactical man
He got away with some of the worst in 40k history. I haven't even bought any of the new marine stuff and I was going to build my chapter to the full extent.

Well, I ordered the flyer rules and the Marine codex re-write, will see if he sullied the common marines or not.

My Marines never take any foe for granted as so many other Marines do.

My marines know what a good kickings all about because of the nids. It's humbling to know that even though you are a genetically engineered super soldier, you can still be digested by a cockroach.

It has landed! the 4 legged beasty is here!

So what world will it be from????

Well, in 2000, I got into the Tau and created a DiY sept named Kal' Dath it's military under the guidance of Shas' O Len' Z' Abi or as the Imperium knew Shas' O Lenzabi a Tau commander who had sewn discord and fear amongst the regional imperial governors with his lightning strikes of mechanized and gunline force applications.

I'd been wondering about your username , sewing the seed of discord, we'd better watch ourselves

I need to order some soviet air force stars to plant onto the Tau marking as that was my main big thing in rebuttal to the 'Tau are space commies" posts.

So, I found some decals and ordered them from an Australian outfit. BnA

Hey, you may want to check miniature markets Black Friday sales, they have a ton of the old at-43 miniatures on clearance including walkers. These are comparable to the dust tactics vehicles you have.

I already gobbled up a bunch of Red Blok mechs from them. right after you got me onto them for the Leviathan
