A question only you can answer for yourself.
Price vs what you're likely to do with it.
If it's going to be an unpainted, never fully built, never played with army then probably not.
If it's expensive but a player knows it will be built, fully painted and played with against all comers for years to come then likely yes.
I tend to look at items, not just GW models, past the pure raw material and production cost but what I'm going to do with it and the excitement and use I will derive from it.
There is a limit though, hence my not possessing Forgeworld Citadel walls, a Reaver Titan, A Warhound.........

If you just want minis and not the codex, probably not, as a full codex is likely to 'eat' a lot if not all of the discount a box set brings
if you want both probably yes, your going to get the codex anyway, and having these fixed pose sculpts will help bulk out your army cheaper than the (coming eventually) more posable separate units (and if your lucky they'll look slightly different too, like the deathguard did... but since they've not got mutations to play with that may not be the case)

So current Start Collecting sets are £55, Dark Imperium is £95 and about twice the size in terms of models and includes the rule book. So I’m guessing £50-£60 depending on how much they want to discount it to bring in new players.

SC boxes are cheap because they are old kits that have basically earned themselves. It's not going to be even close to that ballmark for brand new box with 3 units, vehicle and couple characters plus codex. Wasnt' that codex even marketed as limited edition? Which would mark it up.
If it's around dark imperium I would say players got it lucky. GW loves to put up mark up on limited stuff. And they know this one will sell out anyway.

Did you see the cost of their latest box? This has the same amount of minis, and a Ltd. Ed Codex.
People are going to have to sell off excess children to buy this box.

If you believe this you'll be very disapointed, no way the box will be less then the starter box. Seeing how the sister box will have a much smaller print run then a starter box, so they need to sell them for more to get the inital investment back. Besides that it comes with a collector's edition codex, which when sold seperatly goes for twice the price of a normal codex. It has the datacards as well

The way I read it is that the codex in this box is exclusive to this box. It’s not “The” limited edition codex. Still going to cost loads though.

Shadowspear was also only £95 for two forces, plus mini-codices, so I still think it's going to be significantly cheaper than that. Obviously not if you're in the south lands, but that's a ridiculousness that we know about.

I can see it in the ballpark of 100 - 150.
Bearing in mind Blood of the Phoenix was £140, I can see this boxed game reaching those heights, HOWEVER, BotP is also two complete armies that are crucially multipart. Monopose historically seems to end up on the cheaper side of GWs pricing, so I can see the box sitting closer at 100 than 150 in GBP.
The box certainly seems enticing, but I don't think it's £150 worth of enticement for me.

just remember the sprues in the sister box seem to be made for the sister box and as such will raise the price

And no, it’s not an abridged codex – it’s the fully updated new edition of Codex: Adepta Sororitas, with special cover art exclusive to this set!
This is all we know. It's exclusive to this set.

It says on that link that it’s the full codex, with special cover art exclusive to this set. This isn’t the £50 Limited Edition codex. That will likely have different art against justify the price (in GW’s mind)

Looking at comparable units it's about that with just models assuming no typical price hike with new kits. Add to that limited codex and card and no way it's cheaper. 120 if gw is being generous.

My guess is a ridiculous £250 (two hundred and fifty pounds), based on the terms and conditions of the big community survey this year.
Assume the worst and be positively surprised.
12) The prizes will be an army of new Adepta Sororitas plastic miniatures. The prizes would include a grand prize worth £250 and 10 prizes worth £35 (grand prize ca. AUD 468 and 10 prizes at AUD 65). The prize value of the 11 prizes are: GBP £600 (ca. AUD 1127) and they will be dispatched to the customer at the time of their worldwide release later this year. The currency and exact value of each prize will vary depending on the countries of residence of the winners.

Interesting theory, sounds plausible. The manager at my local GW said he’d heard figures of £150 and £250, although even he thought £250 was a bit much

It's the same price as shadowspear. China already spoiled the pricing. Idk why people are still guesstimating when we've known literally everything about the box set for over a week.
