Hard pass all around here.
Still eyeing an exorcist and a basic squad but i might just hang things up until GW fixes the basic game.
I have plenty to paint and too little time to spend on poorly written and poorly conceived trademarks to send some marketeer's kid to Oxford.

Very hard pass on immolators. They're too expensive both in points and in dollars.

I'll be getting what I need for my 2K list (I'm pretty invested at this stage) - but I'll probably hold off on extra stuff beyond that for the moment.

The Sisters' Psychic Awakening supplement might shake things up significantly in a couple months anyway.

It was not, and GW has since publicly confirmed that Sisters are getting rules in a PA supplement in any event.

Man. That Rhino price. It's 178% the price of the Marine Rhino, and the Marine Rhino comes with the regular Marine vehicle accessory sprue and the Razorback sprue. This kit removes two sprues, adds one, and goes up by that much?

Never change GW, you greedy fethers...

Huh? The Space Marine Rhino/Razorback is GBP 27.50 versus GBP 35 for the Sororitas Rhino. That's only 27% more. And we haven't seen the new sprue yet.

TBH is still a little too much of an increase for a side-grade of a VERY old kit...

But the hat is new!

Really like the jumppack icons in the seraphim box ... they look to be compatible with normal backpacks so i want those to pimp up the Triumph of St. Kathrine even more

Pretty glad I stocked on old Sororitas rhino when it was possible, the new rhino isn't even better looking than the old one.
Imo the new one is actually worse than the previous one, with just random bits instead of the cool special top that gave it a different silhouette before.
I was planning to buying one box for the extra sprue and selling back the rhino sprues, but paying 78% of a rhino just for a very few bits it too much even for me I guess...

And before you answer me, half-bro, remember my previous sig .

So are the zephyrim jump packs completely different pieces from the seraphim jump packs? I initially thought they would be bits of wrought iron fence glued to the regular seraphim backpack but looking at it now I'm starting to wonder if we're going to have leftover jump packs with every kit?

If so, I might have to build that jump-pack canoness after all - run her as a counts-as Celestine.

Maybe. If you count that as pa release then sisters get 2 as gw confirmed pa rules coming for sisters. No rules in pa2. Ergo another book coming.

Sisters won't be left out of build your order all get in pa

It's new sku. Were rhino be released now it would be likely 32.5-35 pounds as well.

Gw price hike system. Rather than shop wide new sku's get price hikes

Terrain got hit hardest. Ork terrain 32.5 euro. Gsc 45e. This 85e. First 40k terrain that isn't pure junk and price nearly doubles. No surprise. Soon faction terrains will be pushing 100e mark

You're right. That sprue is jammed packed with content compared to the Rhino Accessory and Razorback sprue combined. I guess that and it's being a new sprue explains why the Sororities Rhino is a bit more expense (27% not 78%).

The funny thing is how reasonable they are being with AoS prices (Morterk guard 20 new infantry for 40€, ogre plastic tyrant 25€ even cheaper than the finecast one and cheaper than primaris characters, etc, etc...) but with w40k they are surely milking that cow.

No. It's 78% more.

£35 is the same as Tartaros Terminators. A £35 unit price in Oz is AUD$98.

The Marine and Chaos Rhinos are AUD$55. You can do the rest of the maths.

I suspect GW is more apt to rise the price of the other rhinos then realize the new ones need a price dip

Looks like the Oz price conversion for rhinos is not consistent with other kits. A DA bike squad is the same price in the uk, but $69 for Oz.

And the Deathwing Box is £35 unit price in Oz and AUD$75. GW sure knows how to mix up this prices for you Aussies. I feel for you.

The problem is that there's always a chance GW will fix things by increasing everyone else's prices to match ours.

Two things;

One, I like how you're somehow smug despite the fact that your original math was literally 100% off(or a typo, wrong either way).

Two, your problem is that the rest of us are talking about buying the kits with money not...I'm gonna guess...badly singed eucalyptus leaves?

55 * 178% is 98 (well actually it's 97.9, but close enough).

H.B.M.C didn't say 178% more in his initial post, he said it's 178% of the price. There's a difference.

I said it was 178% the price. It is 178% the price. Y'know, $55 x 1.78. You're inability to understand basic multiplication is not my problem.

A bushfire dig? Well there's poor taste, and then there's whatever the feth that was.

I'm certainly glad AAE isn't in this thread.

I got the Sisters LE box but GW's handling of every thing else has effectively killed my interest in this army.

That and, of course, the price of everything else I'd need to field a fun force made up of Sisters...

Friend of mine spent a while getting a massive SoB army off eBay in the leadup to this release. He was looking forward to supplementing everything with a full plastic release. Now he's holding off buying tanks because they cost so damned much.

I don't know how he'll go on once Repressors go Legends.

He could just buy space Marine Rhinos. the added bling isn't exactly nesscary

And there is quite a lot of bling in the Sisters Rhino kit, so one could easily get one of those and then, say, two marine Rhinos and spread the bling. I think it would achieve sufficiently sistery look cheaper.

And then he could give me the Razorback parts! For free.

Everybody wins.

And when people sayd 27% they said 127% of price. They are talking about same thing. What the rest didn't know is that for some reason GW has rhino price conversion all weird up compared to rest in that specific currency. For UK it's 127% price in HBMC' terms. For euro it's 128%.

For some reason in HBMC's country rhino gets unusually cheap conversion rate while rhino goes to usual high conversion rate making comparison worse than it's for rest.
