The sad and somewhat ironic thing is, if they actually reduced prices they’d probably sell a lot more. Not only would people be more inclined to buy, they might also buy more often rather than holding out for special occasions which is the case for many people now, and that’s only if they haven’t already been priced out of the hobby. Lower prices would also drive sales by reducing the financial barrier to entry to potential new players. All the constant price hikes only make the hobby that bit more inaccessible to more and more people. It’s easy to see why there has been such a boom in sales of OPR and 3D printers in recent years.

i use a 3d printer, the cheapest printer costs about 3 times as much as 1 GW kill team but after you buy it, each mini takes about 3 cents to 8 bucks depending on your resin and where you find your 3d files. meaning the printer pays for itself in like 4 or 5 prints depending on the miniature.

Now even if you take inflation into account from then to now, i can honestly say if i was 14 today, i would NOT be able able to get into warhammer. The miniatures and everything else is simply too expensive for me to be able to get into it. And that might end up be one of the things that eventually kills off GW.

GW's pricing is hurting themselves. They could be making as much, if not more money if they priced themselves more accessibly. There was a time when it wasn't uncommon for people to have huge armies and multiples of them. It is no surprise that players started to specialize and churn their armies more as pricing increased. What the company would lose in profit per say, they would make up for in total volume of sales. Prices scare people away but give people a price they are happy with and they will gobble up your product.

GW have not effectively taken action to keep prices down, they have taken action to keep revenue growth on track without additional supply. They expand their stock storage but not expanding manufacturing. They have a few factories in the uk but that’s pretty much it. They could open manufacturing branches other parts of the world (Mexico, Japan, Australia and so on), which could start out on a small scale focusing on limited releases/local preorders and high demand models in the local markets. For example when North America had no warhounds for months these smaller plants could have printed those models until additional supply could be allocated. It would also allow games workshop to avoid import fees to countries like Australia and New Zealand. Countries that have regularly experienced economic landscapes where it’s cheaper to buy directly from British retailers than to walk 15 minutes to the local discount game store. That’s simply because the mark up on warhammer in Australia not only covers import fees but generates profit. But they will never do this because that would mean investing money into a system that wouldn’t let them price gouge in demand models or the foreign markets. They don’t value the hobby supporters they value the consumers. It seems the company needs a complete change of leadership if it expects to continue growing or remaining profitable in the face of emerging technologies and competitors.

Coming in a couple months later to say the trend with the Battleforce boxes is definitely continuing with the upcoming Imperial Agents Codex. Except it's even worse this time around because they're making 3 Battleforce boxes and ALL of the models in each of the boxes are either from Kill Team or other previous releases, with the exception of the Malleus which is getting ONE new model in the form of a resculpt of Inquisitor Coteaz. This last point is just my own opinion here, so take it or leave it but, the previous sculpt of Coteaz was better than the new one.

said this 15-20 years ago during the Tom Kirby era. Dropped 40k/WHFM and went to HH. Once Mr Bligh sadly passed away and mainline GW got their hands on HH I dropped it also. Stopped buying the HH novels and 40k books also. The only thing I want to get my hands on are the HH1.0 BBB's so I can play with a finish system and enjoy my admech and titans stomping stuff. GW sold their soul to the dividend's/ shareholds two decades ago. They weren't even subtle about it back then.

After having watched : I agree with the fear! I'm definitly interested in new eldar and orks model, but I sure as hell won't put the money in a huge box just to get the one or two among the swarm of old kits --' However, following the confrontation boxes, I'm really happy with the recent Kill team megabox : Nightmare is really nice, you can stil resell the half you don't care about, plus you get some sweet terrain ^^ looking forward to Termination in a few month as well !

I appreciate the less GW favourable discussion around the price hike. It's absurd. I don't know about your local area, but in my area of australia the 3d print and recast armies are just becoming more and more common. It sucks, especially for supporting local stores, but it's pricing people out of the game and they're going for any option that works for their wallets. With actual cost of living increases, I can't say I look at a $60 32mm character with anything less than disgust.

The pricing thing is insane, but honestly, I'm a fan of the battalion boxes. I can freely ignore them if I have too many things that I don't want, but if there are things I want in there, I get a bunch of discounted models, causing the prices to go to 'unreasonably expensive' down from 'holy f***' expensive. and if there is an extra squad of stuff I don't want, using it for bits, or tossing it to a friend to get them into the game, or allowing me to do weird things with models I didn't really need is neat.

Once again, GW jump ahead of inflation FASTER than inflation! Lol, the vyper jetbike at 27 years is the oldest plastic kit they sell for 40k, and the falcon grav tank is only four months younger than that. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty certain no other army even has a model from last millenium!

I think you're doing the boxed sets a bit dirty by focusing on them as a long time player. They're not meant for that type of player. They are meant to get new players or for someone to start a new army. For those people these boxes are a steal. As you say, the models come out on their own after a month or two so you're complaint about those boxes really is "I want it now". At least that's how I'm viewing it. My wife and I have only started playing recently, she plays sisters and I play Votann and these type of boxes have been great for us because of their value.

We could absolutely get on board with that idea if GW sold the new models independently and alongside the release.

I just went and looked it up... The Veterans of the long war box is on pre-order this weekend and GW wants $390AUD for it. I'm fairly new to this hobby as a break from my way more expensive main hobby and I was considering that as a base for my first army, but any interest in GW's games or their plastic has just evaporated. I'll finish off what I have and then I'll buy a 3d printer.
@blizzardgaming70703 ай бұрын
One thing that went unmentioned in regards to the box set, is stuff like Dark Imperium which have exclusive sculpts for models. This is especially annoying as the standard pox walker kit still has half a Dark Imperium plague marine in it which is incompatible with the standard plague marines.

gonna be honest here, other than updated sculpts, chaos didnt really need anything new. the chaos lord and jump pack lord were released to keep closer to the "if it has a model it will have rules, if not its removed" theme they seem to be going with. the model releases are just a path to giving rules back into the codex the boxes are aimed at people who are new to the game and want to bulk out their army. if you have been playing for more than a few years, you have multiple chaos lords and jump pack lords. if you havent been playing for more than a few years its likely most of those models will find a place in your army. they have a current chaos lord sculpt as well as harken so neither model is out of reach for players who need an alternative to making something to use as their new models

There is a way to fix that to fix the problem of games workshop gouging you and taking all of your money. I guarantee you if you buy a 3-D printer and learn how to 3-D print and model and then go find the SDL files online and yes they are there. You can save a lot of money and that damn printer will pay for itself probably within a year or two, and that will send a message to workshop since they’re not getting any money from you.

I struggle to justify any purchase in a GW store, save for the odd pot of paint. A purchase from a discount store (even postal, in some cases) provides "free" paint or modelling supplies or actually models if spending a ton or so. It would be great if you could do a secret handshake in a GW store to get the discount.......

My solution to this is quite simply that I took stock of my pile of shame, realized I'll probably die with a backlog, and forever lost the desire to buy into GW's FOMO boxes. I have zero problems waiting a few months for a new character to be released on its own because chances are if I get the new army box, by the time I actually get around to painting that new model I really badly wanted, it's already available on its own anyway. Just ask yourself that - yeah, you want that one cool thing, but how long is it going to take for you to actually have it on the table?
