So....my wife asks me what I want for Christmas (something we usually do) and I said, "Probably models!". She drops what sh was doing, goes into my closet and starts going through my boxes and pulls this out. After a few long seconds of silence and both of us looking at the table, she looks at me and says, "Really?!?" I think she's on to me....... You mean she's on to the fact you don't have enough models?

I think some glue and a few new brushes are what's required And maybe a few new models

Just tell her that she doesn't understand, you need more models!

Any deals with the prices? They are usually around the just over β¬100 mark, which is pretty good value. I think last years skaven one was the first one that broke away from the normal price and was more and I fully expect these to do the same, some of them have some rather pricey models in. I'm eyeing up that Ogre one still and as long as it remains under β¬150 its an insane deal. There is β¬200 worth of ogre kits in there anyway and that's not including the Giant which I couldn't price, I'd say β¬50 as they only seem to be sold in a pack of 2 for β¬100 now.

You seem to be drastically low on reserve models Mottdon, i would recommend doubling up on whats there at least!

It appears that the boxes are &120-125. Not sure what that equates to is Euros or USD bit probably about AUS $500 βΊοΈ

I know, right?!! π The real question is, do I get the Ogre box, the NG/Troll box or some combination of Beastmen models to boost my new Beastmen army (currently I can form a 2000 pt army)?

Still a good deal, the ogre one especially. They clearly didn't have as much stock as before- I guess between covid and seeing they were still shifting the chaos ones months after christmas last year made for a smaller stock run. At β¬160 direct, that is a huge increase and I suspect that will be the sort of price increase that those of us in the EU will see come January 1st. Was able to pick the main ones I wanted for a huge discount from Goblin Gaming, but this will probably be the last year I buy any, or at least more than one. They sold out incredibly quick. The Tzeentch one was gone before I'd even logged in and the goblin one was gone not long after.

I wonder what percentage of people buying these boxed set up so quickly, are planning to use them for AoS or planning ahead for the re-release of the Old World in a few years? It could EASILY take that long for some people to have their stuff modeled, painted and ready to play.

Stuff up for pre-order next weekend: www.warhammer-community.com/2020/11/29/the-sunday-preview-warbands-of-the-mortal-realms/Nothing of great excitement - there's the new Underworlds box with the high cow elves + Slaanesh warbands in: One of those Elves could make a good Loremaster (the female one with the great weapon), and the Slaaneshi champion is cool. I dislike the Slaangor, and the two Slaaneshi minions. Warcry has boxes - the shadow elves/flaming chaos lot from the recent box set: And then there's two other boxes - an Undead one that looks to be the Necromancer you probably already have + 10 Skeleton Warriors + 5 Grave Guard, and a Sylvaneth band:

I really don't understand what they were thinking when they made the new elves special thing cows. It really wasn't hard to release something quite close to high elves, maybe some sort of spiritual link to dragons, and hey presto you can sell to people like us and new people and you are done.
