I had no idea the mounted Lord and Eternus were a dual kit. That’s quite impressive.

The Vanguard set is also neat, with a lord in there you can easily double up on them and have a powerful core of chaos models.
All in all fantastic and I bet this clears out those remaining Slaves to Darkness with Prince boxed sets pretty fast now. I'd wager they will vanish over the next day/week with this news.
Only oddity is GW still not updating the Marauders kit.

Chaos Lord on Daemonic Mount is missing.
EDIT: Nevermind. I didn't notice that it was an alternative build to Eternus.

Thats a solid weekend of releases. I figured they’d space it out a bit.

That might have been the original plan but, again, things get squished these days. That said many of the models have already had retail releases in various forms so many are just split kits going on sale on their own for the first time.

Given the gaps in the releases depending on region, I'd say that they're still having supply chain issues. These were all probably due out last year anyway.

There had been some suggestion that the Deamon Prince was being held back until after the release of a 40K Arks of Omen Chaos Battleforce, so I'm glad that didn't pan out - that would have been quite arsehole-ish even for GW.

I am usually not one to complain about the prices. But everything except Eternus and the Exalted is north of my expected price point.
In case of the Daemon Prince quite far north...
*sigh*
Positive:
I am even more happy about buying the box set now.
Those170€ Last year would be 260€ today.
Edit: interesting how lord_blackfang and i can so completely disagree on what is "to be expected". Guess there is no good pricepoint anyway.

It would be very chaotic and on-brand to only let the chosen be equipped with the random weapons provided in a single box
Anyway, how do you wield halberd and shield simultaneously? Sounds like a terribly awkvard combo.

Historical halbers were used like a spear, axe or hook depending on circumstances, so you could probably do spear-y moves if you were fighting in close formations and using shields. Or you could carry a shield as long as you were just moving about on the battlefield, and drop it once stuck in to use the halberd with both hands. Of course historical halberds were also much more spear-like in appearance and did not have axeheads the size of a grown man's torso
Hulked-out chaos dudes can probably do the more physically demanding moves one-handed and thus enjoy the full halberd benefits even when simultaneously using a shield.

That makes the Daemon Prince AUD$110. I paid AUD$120. For two of them.

I barely have a pulse on AoS nowadays so if anyone is off it's probably me! But I see Ogroids the same cost as Stormfiends, Chaos Knights same as Blood Knights, etc.

As a person that does not play AoS, it looks to me, from the outside, like GW operates on the principle that the rank-and-file days of WH Fantasy are over, but that the amount you're expected to spend on a 'typical' army as a whole more or less stays the same, i.e. you replace 40 clanrats with 2 x 10 Verminoid Spearskitters that cost about the same, and 10 rank-and-file-ish knights with 3 Armourhide Destroyers on Thunderchunk Hulkadons etc.- basically everything shifts down in number but goes up in size and cost.

I'm with you on most of that looking quite normal for stuff released at this time. Infantry, cavalry, character on foot. The Daemon Prince seems to be a little on the high side as far as I'm concerned, but maybe it's bigger than I thought. I haven't seen it in a scale picture yet as far as I remember.

Prince is actually a lot cheaper than I thought considering how many parts its got for spares.
The rest feel expensive, but in lineish with current GW prices on things. I feel like GW is trying to push AoS steadily away from large infantry games into minimum compositions and more skirmishing.
Either its a shift for this edition or its a slow move to have AoS be the "skirmisher" and Old World the "wargame" to have a visual different on the tabletop.

I don't know a lot about AoS, but I do know that if 'Armourhide Destroyers on Thunderchunk Hulkadons' isn't a unit by this time next year, I'm organizing a riot!!
