The costs will be higher as they'll sell a lot of accessories based on convenience. Pop into a shop pick up some models, paints and then grab one of these spur of the moment or after receiving advice from staff on the floor. Lots of people getting into it will go out on a spending spree as well (or their parents will) and buy them to get them started.

This kinda happened to me when I went to my closest warhammer shop for the first time… needless to say I now go to a slightly further away hobby shop that sells things for cheaper and don’t try to get you to buy 100 different things

@dash4800 Жыл бұрын

what store will tell you to buy GW stuff? Every hobby store I have been to is staffed by actual hobbyists and they would never try to sell you a $35 knife over the $5 one that rational people use. And really they have an incentive to sell you cheap accessories to actually get you to stay in the hobby. If new people come in and are told they need to shill out $150 for some clippers and knife and a drill are they going to be coming back?

@BouncingTribbles Жыл бұрын

I only bought GW tools the first time, but I don't dislike the convenience factor. It's a good lesson too, because I learned quickly to buy my tools from the hardware store

While their costs are ridiculous. one thing that I can say in defence of the mould line remover. It's a very safe tool to give to a kid in the hobby to help with their models if they aren't old enough to trust with a knife yet.

You can buy excellent clippers in the electrical section of Home Depot. They are literally the same clippers used in cutting phone lines, or cat5 cables. I have a pair from my installation days, and they work perfectly. Like $10-15 for a pair. $50 for a pair is a joke if you know what they are commonly used for.

@TheDigitalThreat Жыл бұрын

Built over 300 models using generic clippers off ebay ($5) [they are still sharp and work fine], a large pack of assorted sand paper grits ($7), a name brand Xacto Handle & blades ($7) and a few Tamiya glue extra thins ($8). Games workshop is drunk, as usual.

I absolutely agree that if you want to spend the money that they're asking for the citadel tools, just go shopping for gunpla stuff. I've got a Dspiae clipper and that thing cost less than the GW shears and is very nice and cuts very cleanly. Clippers are the one hobby tool I'd say to not cheap out on if you do have budget. A good sharp pair can make cutting models out and cleaning them up a ton easier to get nice.

The Mongol Horde look is OK but I seem to recall some artwork of Cadian Rough Riders from a few years ago, and I would have preferred some consistency in terms of look as there are otherwise none of these Mongol guys as foot soldiers. Are they ONLY riders? Agreed I suppose we can transplant Cadian heads but I'm not so sure.

I'm one of the few that actually like the mould line remover, it's a handy tool to have around. Is it overpriced? Yes. No question there, but I still like it. One good thing about it as well, is that it's childproof. I wouldn't give a young child an exacto knife to scrape of mould lines (even if the exacto knife is dulled down by our standards).

The old mold line remover is great.... for big model kits/gunpla. You often have big mold lines on panels and having a sturdy blade that doesnt cut is perfect

i remember 4 years ago I went to japan for a few weeks, and while i was there I went to a small hobby shop in akihabara and bought 5 hobby cutters all the same that have no brand on them but they have green handles. Nevertheless im still using one and its been 4 years.

Regarding KT: I like more options. Same with the Phobos Kill Team and the "missing" Reivers. The Box would've been way to bloated and therefore expensive if they added all the options. The way its shipped is perfectly fine but I really enjoy exploring the optional stuff :)

For $40 you can get some premium Knipex cutters made in Germany and (I think) has a lifetime warranty.

having rules for the chronomancer makes it playable in kill team again as it was previously available from the pariah nexus kill team box from kill team 1 :D but was left out as an option to choose in the compendium in kill team 2 in the necron section, which has left the necrons to be rather bland for kill team 2

The phobos strike team was the same as the necrons, they have rules for reivers but there are none in the box. I like the extra options and can see why they didn't include them, as would be too much plastic Vs other teams, but having to buy more than one extra box for a bespoke team would be excessive. Needing to buy 2 boxes though is no different to other teams like vet guard, where you need 2 boxes anyway for a full roster

I know I was upset when I figured out that the Phobos kill team box doesn’t have Reivers in it, even though they’re on the Phobos kill team. However, I think that including all of the faction options, even if they aren’t in the box, is ultimately a good thing. The compendium teams are quite bad compared to the newer box set and White Dwarf teams, and I want to see my favorite models with good rules ASAP, even if I have to buy them separately

the gw guy in our store told me the mould line remover is so kids can scrape their models, they may have access to clippers but not a scalpel, obviously the cost is pretty prohibitive for a child who would rather spend their pocket money/allowance on models but that's an issue across the board (no pun intended)

@johnoneill3654 Жыл бұрын

My mate gave me his mould remover from the starter set. It's actually grand and works fine. But it's no substitute for a hobby knife imo. The knife is just far more versatile. But for a young kid it's probably better. And they'll catch newbies and parents even with these prices. Mostly because they won't know where to get good or better equivalents for cheaper but also partially due to convenience.

I think it's great for us Necron Players that we can proxy the full team with our 40k stuff and play a new Team without spending more money, but I get the complaints about the upgrade sprue feeling a bit lazy by GW
