    Agreed. I haven't made a lot of purchases from GW since AoS dropped (in all that time I think I got 1 box of terradons and 1 box of trolls, maybe a paint or two), so the price definitely came as a surprise. I was thinking it would cost around $30 Canadian at most.

    As long as people will pay, the prices will rise. The strange part is that there is no consistency in character pricing. Some characters come in at about half that cost.

    Looks like (almost) all post-AoS, non-monster, hero's cost 15 Pound or more. While the pre-AoS (non-monster) hero's cost 15 pound or less.

    It's crazy how much they have jumped in price over such a small period of time.

    More or less this has Always been GW's favoured tactic. To release new shiny and powerful models, so people buy them.
    When there is a price increase is because they see that people are already buying costly stuff.

    It's hard to blame GW (but I still will), if people are willing to buy it, I would sell it at that price too.

    Finally some SC boxes for those underrated and seldom played armies to make them more attractive!

    The Kharadraon one is pretty cool, about time.

    Lol, couldn't agree more about the Stormcast box. They should put one Stormcast figure in each and every box of figures, to ensure no one misses out.............:(.......or not!

    Don't joke about such things... GW might overhear it and actually do it. :p

    I'll take what you don't want. I'll paint them and use them as animated golems

    I would never purchase a GW product that included a Stormcast... out of pure principle. Even if the Stormcast was thrown in for free.

    I guess that can't be helped. But I would permanently discontinue purchasing anything from GW afterwards. :bored:

    Hahaha :joyful:

    Well I hate Stormcast and I hate "Seraphon" (I like Lizardmen), so no, I would most definitely not buy those either! :p

    :vomit:

    Ewwww... no
