Went onto the GW site to see the price of the Gaunt’s Ghosts models (I’m tempted but not sure as I’m. It a Guard player) and got put in a queue! Anyone know the price of them (in € preferably)? And how limited they are?

55€ and looks like all are gone. Pre-order says 23.10. as delivery date.

They've not been advertised as limited.

Of course, at AUD$110 for 6 Guardsmen, it's a bit too much. No, I'm lying. It's actually waaaaaaaaaay to fething much.

No, but 3,5 months delivery time says for me that initial stock is gone.

€55 is a bit steep for me. Oh well, I’ll live vicariously through the ones people will post on Instagram. Pity!

UK's showing them as "Pre-order product that will be delivered from 23/10/2021".

Might be due to the delays that frequently hit Australia/New Zealand, they're going to come back, but there's no 'reliable' date for the new stock the way the UK has the above and so they're just slapping Sold Out until it suddenly pops back in-stock?

I ran into the same queue this morning, but I just went to my FLGS and picked up one of the three boxes they had sitting around. It's pretty expensive for what you get, but the minis are really nice and seem useful in game.

This may be a bit off topic, but could you please take a better picture of the new ork boyz that's apparently in one corner of this box and post it in the ork thread?

I'm not sure if this is against any rules - if so please ignore me & tnx for reading.

Yeah. 'Cause that's a good metric to use.

It's the only option in the set - everyone else just has one head.

I tried, but it's really tiny and I couldn't get a better picture than what's already available. Looks to be new Ork minis with Shootas, that's it. Sorry!

Much obliged anyway! Hopefully they'll display a couple of them in this Monday's 'ere we go, but it's good knowing that they're coming in either case.

Umm say what? Weren't they suppose to be preorder this week? How come your flgs had them laying around? And selling. Pretty sure that's against flgs terms.

Yeah - these shouldn't have even been dispatched from GW! So how about a pic? And the name of the store?

Sounds like when GW did some other specialist model print runs. I know I had to wait a few months for my Ripper Jackson model to ship.

I suspect its just that GW is putting stuff like that on the back burner; doing small casting runs or just holding off for a long while until they've a sales lull to do a big batch.

I was just letting the OP know they could get it from FLGS as well? In case they were sold out or whatever. No point being made.

Why did I think the upgrade sprue for the Cadians could be ordered on it's own today? Look like it is only available in the new Cadian box.

Wow, if you'd asked me if I expected "£42 box of 5 basic guardsmen and a commissar" to sell out I'd have said nah.

I can see a lot on local stores' websites still though.

They specifically mentioned during the reveal that it would be packaged into the existing Cadian box.

Ah, I'm used to the plastic Necromunda gang upgrade kits that I just read that article and just assumed they'd be for sale separately as well.

about the same; $65 USD for old metal boxset of 6, might have been cheaper prior to the yearly price increase throughout the ranges, but no less that $30 USD; 42 Ib = $60 USD

In the UK they've gone up from £22.50 (IIRC) to £29 (EDIT: box does NOT have 2 upgrade sprues in it)
