Didn't they say terrain is going up by 20% versus 10% for miniatures?

Nope:

So, regrettably, we’ll soon be increasing prices a little.

In many cases, this will be about 5%. So, as an example of what you can expect on most kits, a box of Space Marine Intercessors will go up just £1 from £35 to £36.*

A few things are going up about 10% (e.g. books, scenery, resin miniatures), and there are a couple of outliers (e.g. Blood Bowl teams and metal miniatures) which are going up around 20%.

The price change will come into effect on the 7th of March.

£170 will certainly be the price going forward, the 10% increase is already accounted for.

You’d think but it’s on updated price list at £190! all individual Zone Mortalis kits are going up £5 from what I can see.

Yes I just saw. That's truly bizarre.

Yes. "Bizarre" is a possible word for it.

Necromunda gang £26 -> £28

It does feel like unpleasant FOMO - buy it RIGHT NOW or pay more later!

Nothing absolutely terrible save the zone mortalis (and well, Hive War)... and still, it adds up like a melon-fether.

How is it that other model and mini makers don't have yearly price hikes? The World Wonders?

How do you manage to not break down into uncontrollable FOMO at the end of each day when the stores close, if that's what you think fomo means?

Isn't this pretty clearly a "Fear Of Missing Out" on a "reduced" price? Because it sure feels like FOMO, if so. Same idea as the "special boxes" or the "Early Bird Specials" from crowdfundings...

I mean, if you think it's not the same idea, I don't know what to tell you... other than back when I was working at GW, every time they had a price "adjustment" they drilled onto us how important was for us to communicate it to the customers, so they would not "miss out" on the "bargain" prices. We had special training session and everything.

Getting people to spend money now to avoid higher prices later is why we have targets for inflation in modern economies.

Judging from the extreme ”no undercuts”-design this will be an ash waste terrain piece - similar to those in the Speed Freeks box.

AUD$475.

Holy Toledo!

That's more than a little high, that's like B Real/Snoop Dogg high.

**H.B.M.C.**

As a friend of mine put it:

"For that price you could buy an FDM printer, along with decent after market parts for it, and more than enough PLA spools to print that and more."

**Voss**

Good thing Aus and NZ aren't getting that price hike, right?

**H.B.M.C.**

I think new products will have the new prices baked in. It's just that the old stuff will stay as it is.

But I guess we'll have to wait until the next basic release comes out to know. Probably the next one is Eldar Guardians, right? So, if that box comes out at AUD$98, same as equivalent units, then the prices are staying as is. If it comes out at AUD$103 (ie. +5%), then we'll know that GW are very careful with their wording (unlike their rules, amirite? *rimshot* ) and when they said they weren't raising prices what they actually meant was not raising prices on the existing range.

Already did literally that with (or rather instead of) Dark Uprising.

And yet here I am again. There's just something about the smell of plastic cement I guess.

Still Just cheap enough that I can't get a good SLA printer for the same money.

Photon Mono 4k is 9$ more than US MSRP for the Sector. Granted, in practice you also need a significant amount of paraphernalia.

Yeah, typically a full set with that costs about 800, though the printer itself is cheap.

10 Days to go on Popov Lab's 3D Printable Hive City Campaign Tiles!

Lots of unlocks, but for some terrain nostalgia junkies among us, check out these fun ones...

Straight from the pages of White Dwarf:

OG Necromunda buildings:

Imperial Bastion:

Hoping we see the others (Firebase, Battle Bunker and Command Tower) before the end.

A friend of mine is really hoping we reach the last goal, so we can get this:

**Kid_Kyoto**

Oh that ship is scratching all kinds of nostalgia itches.

**lord_blackfang**

But where is the deodorant hovertank factory?

**zedmeister**

Those are sweet as. Anyone know of anyone who plans to offer prints of them for sale in the UK?

Missing the Firebase as well!

**Flinty**

There are currently 8 backers for the reseller tier, but not clear where they are based.

The campaign finishes in 9 days, so probably one to look up again in a month or so for stores carrying prints.

Didn't you give me attitude for not spoilering giant images in quotes?

For someone who feels they needs to police other peoples' posts, despite not being a mod, you're not very consistent.
