I can't ever see myself buying them.
In Australia, guardians are 55$, dire Avengers are 55$, WRAITHGUARD are 55$, the wraithknight is 125$.
They've priced banshees at 90$. 5 T3 models are priced at 2/3rds the cost of a knight ....
Unless they are going to put the price of everything else up, they've priced banshees so uncompetitively that you'd really have to love them to willingly buy them.
Pay 40$ less and get a unit of wraith blades, occupying the same force slot but pointed at twice the amount. They're almost 4x the value due to costing more and being twice the points.
That's insane in any measure

Don't forget the wraiths come with four different weapon options as opposed to three weapon options for the exarch alone...they get a choice of helmets or no helmets though!

Yaaay...? I guesss??
Now I know what I paid for
The wraiths are just superior in every way. They look badass, they hit hard and are tough to boot. Its a no contest.

Heresy. Warp Spiders are perfect sculpts.

It really bothers me that 10 Dire Avengers are more expensive than 10 Intercessors. And Dire Avengers used to be 10 in a box for the same price they're currently selling 5 per box.

Oh do not go down that road - some of us remember when you got 5 metal figures in a blister for a fraction of what characters go for now ...

Is Blackmane still for sale? He certainly won’t be for long, what with the new box set coming out.
R.I.P. Blackmane, your mould could have drunk, driven, and smoked. But it never did- it never did.

See that stuff above? Completely true. All of it, every single word. Stands to reason. |
