    Hey everyone,

    Title says it all. I found someone selling a box of warriors and a box of knights for 40$ total. The boxes are still wrapped in plastic and I'm seriously considered picking it up. Square bases aside (I don't mind forking out a bit extra for bases), are the kits identical before I pull the trigger?

    Thanks!

    Assuming its the most recent knight kit, yes.

    What about the warriors? Since Warriors recently went up, I could easily save 55 bucks plus taxes by getting these older ones.

    edit: just looked at the image you attached, those will be indentical to the current seraphon sets!

    Also, warriors were not in the most recent price increase. Only skinks and starpriest i believe.

    Last point, those prices aren't wildly cheaper than you can get on ebay on any given day. Dunno if that helps or hurts, but /shrug

    According to my previous purchase of warriors, they were 45. This was in April of this year. Also, Stegadons/Engines have gone up as well.

    Saurus are currently $40 on the GW site for me. I'm not saying they haven't gone up in price ever, but the most recent price increase that leaked a few days ago did not have saurus warriors or engines on the list.

    The WHFB boxes in the image you attached contain the same sprues as the Warriors & Knights from the start collecting box.

    Only differences are the square/rectangular bases, like you mentioned, and the Saurus box lets you build 16 warriors instead of the 20 that the newer AoS labeled boxes come with. The Knights box builds 8 like AoS one.

    Not a bad deal for $40!

    Good thing I plan on getting a second start collecting box. The extra two saurus warriors from each box will round out that 16 number. I'll have a total of 60. It just means I will have to dismantle my custom (crappily built) Astrolith star bearer. I'm OK with that.
