25.50 Euros/ £21.80/ $33.37 for 30 miniatures, with extra packs available to add either male or female spearmen to the regiment.

Gamezone have some very nice models in their range, and this should see them become nice and affordable.. exactly 3 times cheaper than the metals to be exact.

The dark elf spearmen are pretty nice, far better than the GW ones IMO while still heroic scale and fitting in well with the rest of the range.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489314.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489314.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489326.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489326.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release.

Guess I'm starting a Dark Elves army.

Their "Not Cold One Knights" are just incredible. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489422.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489422.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release.

don't they know that when going from metal to plastic you're supposed to increase the cost so everyone can call them something like Dark Elf Goldmen]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489424.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489424.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489434.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489434.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release.

I just noticed the Resin light cavalry and 9 model spear sets too. This may have gotten me back into Fantasy gaming.

I love their models. And Dark Elves are a favorite fantasy army...

Oh well. I guess I'll have to buy some...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489692.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489692.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489702.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489702.page GMT Re:Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. GW better hurry and get all the money they can quick since all the little guys have caught up (and many surpassing) them in quality for the cost.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489703.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489703.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. GW would make if they switched their old metals/new finecast minis to restic and lowered the price... Nah, makes too much sense, they'll never do it...

The one thing that has put me off the gamezone range is the price tag hopefully that will now disappear over the next few months. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489792.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489792.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489793.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489793.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release.
Their spear men are alight, but anything that requires two pieces to be put together, forget it. Gaps galore.

I have zero faith there will be any decent quality control on these figs. Also, from ordering from them, those prices are pre-VAT. They will tack it on regardless of what country you live in.

*edit* Just to add, I would wait for RH's kickstarter rather than give these guys any of my money. Have faith in RH, Gamezone, no.

Should be beneficial for all sorts of fantasy players (including but not limited to WFB).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489846.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489846.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489847.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489847.page GMT Re:Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. that inhibitive when you bought the box-sets, worked out about just under 2 pounds for a single miniature.

And there are those of us of course who prefer the weight and tactile properties of a metal miniature

Some of their vampire/undead range (especially the vampires on Horseback) are absolutely breathtaking. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489894.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489894.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489973.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489973.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489999.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5489999.page GMT Re:Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. DE spearmen/women over the years, I will certainly add 30-60 more now. Plus the riders.

Resin plastic is robust enough for the spears not to break that easily. And it makes the riders not break from the base (always a problem with Gamezone's heavy metal models balancing on just one hoof).

Edit: Reminds me that Crossbows are more effective than speers currently. But the dam is broken.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490010.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490010.page GMT Re:Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release.

Aww really? THAT's the GZ DE cav unit they pick for restic treatment? Blegh... Would'v much preferred their reptillian mounts in something affordable...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490061.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490061.page GMT Re:Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release.

Patience- that may very well happen. Especially if we all pounce on the units that they have done in restic.

I applaud Gamezone for making a product with an affordable price-point and great quality! Now everyone snap them up as fast as possible before GW tries some form of corporate dickery to shut them down.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490120.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490120.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490273.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5490273.page GMT Gamezone switches to resin plastic, dark elves as the first release.

Many retailers will stock it once it is available, among them Battlefield Berlin. But not yet.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5539839.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519868/5539839.page GMT
