I see guns..

Also.. LOL @ that price.. AW lost their minds..

They've sold over 100 already, so looks like you might be in a minority...

I don't think "over 100" counts as a minority... If anything only selling just over 100 of a highly anticipated kit .. might not be seen as a success by some..

They have a very limited production capability at the moment, it's basically a prototype, they said they can only produce 20 a month (aka 1 a day).

So "over a hundred" means "sold out for over 5 months", and any product completely sold out for over five months is successful.

It's not like they're churning out mass market consumer goods, it's a niche hobby market luxury item.

Yeah its a stunning kit but I'm not willing to pay the price tag. I've been a part of all of AW KS and use there bases and compass bars but I'm going to wish them luck and sit this one out.

Thinking about it I will pledge for the decal set to give them my support.

Assuming AW is delivering its products worldwide roughly 5% of the ITS registered Infinity players bought it already. That's far away from any majority.

The guns are on the concept art and very early test renders. These were done before they were making them as official models. Now that they are official models, the guns had to be removed as per their license deal with CB.

It's worth noting just how long these have been worked on. They've been talking about starting this kickstarter for their dropship designs since at least December 2013.

There's a reason I called this a highly anticipated kit.. This kit was the reason I goaded TF until they added a dropship to their KS tbh. Reading the KS more closely.. there will be an option to allow you to attach guns as well.. so that's nice..
Still no way in hell I'm paying those prices.. I'd sooner buy the Pelican from Spartan..

I believe he was suggesting the poster believeing AW were out of their mind put him in a minority, not not wanting to buy one.

AW know who they're making these for - people who will be willing to pay the money for them, and they're clearly finding a market. It appears the poster was confusing 'they're out of their minds' with 'I don't want one'.

Yea, exactly, I'm not willing to spend that much on a piece of scenery either but it's very pretty and clearly many people think it's a fair price for the quality.

Indeed. It's aimed at the modelling market rather than gamers who just want a terrain item.

I've pledged a few quid on the AW KS for some decals, the range now seems to (or will) cover most or all vanilla and sectorial forces -

I didn't confuse it for that anymore than you confused disagreeing with a person for meaning they're wrong. Will people buy it? Well.. people still pay prices GW charge.. so yes.. yes they will. I suppose if it's limited release only then sure.. the price kinda makes sense. I mean.. they've not really been established as a producer of a collectible market or anything.. but hey.. charging 2-3x what other similar kits are asking seems reasonable to me. (that's sarcasm).
I own AW kits and they're nice. Contrary to popular belief though, they are not perfect. The hover tank I own has numerous air bubbles and a mold line from slippage that creates a small offset. There's tons of flash and it's a hybrid metal resin kit. Do I expect this one to be leagues beyond? Well.. I dunno.. the AW scenery I have is newer and only marginally better.. so.. no not really.. See.. I've got facts and reasons for having my opinion and stance. As nicely designed as that kit is, it's just not there. For the people that are paying, I do hope the quality issues are not there because I hate to think people are buying something like that.. but hey..
If you like it for that price, more power to you.. I do not (for what they're asking) and at the end of the day, we're here to discuss what we think.. not what we think each other should think. You don't agree.. got it.. Enjoy your model.

At this point, it would be best to take the AW KS Dropship talk to either the AW thread or its own dedicated thread - thanks!

Spoiler:

He is a WarCor? They are supposed to get early releases so they can run demo games. GenCon starts in 3 weeks. I wonder how fast the Red Veil boxes will sell out. Everyone else will have to wait until what, mid-September?

I think further discussion of Antenocitis can go to the Antenocitis thread, no? Don't make Alpharius use that ghastly orange text color (or is it the yellow?) again.

EDIT TO ADD: ninja'ed by the master

There is a post from Gorilla Games with similar (looks like they are already assembled and started on painting) so don't know if its some painting studios that are getting them as well as the Warcors.

Ash at GG is a Warcor.

The infinity merch is up now. I really like these mugs, I'd be happy with like 5 of them:

Got to get me the Haqqislam mug and Red Veil mouse pad.

The postage is absurd, the measure tape is one third of the cost, the rest is postage. 25£ for a measure tape!

Welcome to why you never buy anything directly from Spanish companies.

Ya, I wanted to buy something, the new forbidden palace, from Customeeple with the sale they have right now but shipping was more then the actual product. It's nothing they have any control over as the Spanish Gov sets minimum prices.

As a comparison I ordered some terrain that was way heavier from Australia and it cost less and only took 4 days to make it to my house.

I'll be contacting Infinity Harbor I guess to get one as it will be less to pay full price+10%+shipping from the US then 20% off + shipping from spain.

No new art for factions? Passable offer. Pad is just horrible.

Conversely, it's the same reason why here we don't buy directly from the States...

I just threw together the order I wanted to do (4 mugs - one for myself and 3 as Christmas gifts) and the Red Veil mouse pad, and it came to $80au. Mugs were $18 each and the mouse pad was $8. I've paid more for novelty mugs and mouse pads.

Shipping was $39au which while a touch more than I'd expected, we pay a lot to ship stuff to Australia anyway. It wasn't in any way unreasonable. I've paid more than that to ship here. I paid equal shipping to what I paid for foam trays from Battlefoam the one time I ordered direct from them.

New FAQ up

Notable change

Does the Regular Order used for a Coordinated Order
need to be from the same Combat Group as the
coordinated troopers?
Yes

Your link has "url" stuck to its end, making it fail

Happens some times I guess, try now.

I figured out what was wrong, it was for the heads up and for those who might have clicked it before you could fix it

Thanks.
