Title: +++6th Ed Starter Set - Trade Shop+++
Post by: Thantos on August 19, 2012, 11:42:43 AM
Partner up! :D A thread for people who want to split the starter set with others, one person takes marines the other takes chaos. ;D (or rulebooks/models/etc however you want to split it)
Rumour has it- its

I'll split with you for the Dark Angel stuff. What ways would the rule book/templates be going?

Nice one ;D
You can have the templates + rulebooks if you want them. Or split them up if you like?

Im not too keen on the cultists at the moment (too many to paint in a year :P) so theres a set of cultists going here for anyone who wants them.
We can carve the price up proportionally later

If neither of you really wanted it, would you be willing to send the rulebook to me out in Japan?  For a proportional fee, of course.

Im not really after the rulebook, so fine with me, depends if Vyper wants it.
Or if he does, when other folks join the swap-shop, you can nab the rulebook from them :P

I'd probably be up for those cultists thantos, as long as this doesnt get released say...tomorrow (gonna be about a fortnight before i have money again :P)

Post by: Thantos on August 19, 2012, 01:23:08 PM
Gonna be a few weeks to release im sure :P
Sounds great, think we split 1 set up nicely now. Am I the only UK fella? I can probs buy it cheaper than USA, AUS or Japan, and post it on?

Hope some others folks will join up n split another ;D

I live in the UK aswell. :P
Posting bits out is probably the best way to go.

I just want to rule book. When is it coming out?

I think I'm just after the rulebook as well. I'm tempted to start Chaos, but I've got other things to do first!

I am from Australia Thantos, so if I were to buy it you'd probably have to pay me a few thousand for the non-cultists...and don't forget the postage! :P

Or he can buy both, and just send you the stuff you want. Might work out cheaper for both parties.

Ok cool, so me or vyper can buy it cheaps then we'll split it.

Sources say its

I'm going to say I'll probably want to be rid of the Cultists. Scouts in a SM army I can handle, but Cultitst in a Chaos army aren't my thing. I'm sure an Alpha Legion player will want them more then I do.

Call me old-fasioned (if applicable) but I'd rather convert my own Cultists.

Just using some Snap-fits from the starter set wouldn't really be that fun for me.

Bell Of Lost Souls (http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2012/08/breaking-40k-dark-vengeance-prices.html) is suggesting that there are going to be two editions of Dark Vengeance coming out; a regular one and a Special Edition one.  The only difference seems to be $8 US and a single miniature; a Dark Angels Interrogator Chaplain.  Would we be getting that?  If so, who wants it?

I might take your cultists off you too then (providing nobody else wants them of course) if I have the money when the sets are released.

But since I'm already getting Thantos' if anyone else wants Narric's cultists they can have priority. :)

Hearing from Tybalt that the Australian Release is AUS$180, I'm thinking I'd happily volunteer to act as a redirecter.

By that I mean if you send me the right money, I'll buy the Kit and ship it to you.

If I knew how much the kit WEIGHED, I'd be able to give an accurate price estimate. Long short, going by Royal Mail's price guide from April, I'm going to say $45 postage (Signature needed), in top of $100 for the kit.

May not be a huge saving, but that is assuming the kit is 2kg in weight :P its +$2 for every extra 100g, up to 5kg.

Admittedly, that is for the special edition. I really don't think the standard edition will be much less. And it isn't listed on the GW site either.

As I said in the other thread, the post-release edition will most likely be the same price. At best it'll be about

I think I read somewhere that it was September 9th, but I could be wrong.

Post by: Narric on August 25, 2012, 09:22:32 AM
They claim pre-orders will arrive by Aug 31st, so I'd just assume the Release is Sept 1st.

Vyper - 1 Librarian, 1 Company Master, 10 Taccys, 5 Termys, 3 bikers (+1 Chaplain?? If you want)

Don't really want the Chaplain, doesn't fit into my lists. :P
That leaves it up for grabs to anyone else. :)

I believe the cultists come to around 15 pounds of value when in that bundle (5 pounds for rulebook, 30 pounds each for Chaos and DA, 2 squads of cultists is bout half when the other half is Lord, 6 chosen and the walker/MC)

I sent you a PM regarding address, postage and my finances Thantos ;)

Seems more or less correct, but the chaplain dude does come to ~

I ordered the Special Edition yesterday for about $107.00 US (Plus tax).  The release will be September 1st.  The Limited Edition is what contains the Chaplain and the Not-So-Limited Edition will only be $7.00 US less.  So get the Limited!  A $20.00 US figure for $7.00 US?  Steal...  We only had 2 days to ordder the Limited though so get yours TODAY!  We were told that after Sunday (TODAY) there would be no more PRE-orders, but they did make enough that they expected to continue offering them through Nov. or Dec.

[EDIT]
Somebody ask in either this thread or the "details" thread about whether or not the Hellbrute was a complement too or a replacement for the Chaos Dreadnought.  Here's what WD printed as an opening description of the creature:

"...a raging behemoth and hate-fueled parody of the noble Space Marine Dreadnought."

So it sounds kinda like those old, ugly Dreads may finally be going away.

Pre orders just means those that will arrive on the day of release. In the UK our preorder 'deadline' is Wednesday for dispatch on Friday (only takes a day or two for arrival).

Are the offers on certain parts still available?

I have a friend who has seen the Cultist and would not mind buying some (ironically he quite 40k before I did and played Chaos). I'm pretty sure he'll enter that slippery model slope of going back to Chaos, but that's his decision. XD
