WatchCaptain24 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Kasrkin! Finally, some of the coolest-looking guardsmen around are back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 Not for long though, so you better swoop now if you want some. Sadly the Tallarn models went too quickly for me to get any :( The short notice was silly, costing us models and GW money - everyone loses I'm thinking a squad of Kasrkin and a set of special weapons? Shame they're metal as it'll be a pain to try and convert some to additional melta/plasma but beggars can't be choosers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Are they doing them in batches, or is this a limited run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 Limited run, but we don't know what comes next. Maybe these will never return, or maybe GW will do a bonanza "last chancer" for the most popular at the end of the made to order? We'll have to wait and see... and keep a reserve of money for potential Tallarn models ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Perhaps they'll bring this on as a full time thing, if they have enough interest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 Feels unlikely, but you never know. I just did my part by ordering some Kasrkin :D I'll need to get a few projects out the door so I can justify working on them :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I can't afford to buy much of anything right now. My money is all tied up in surviving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 I hope someone at GW is getting a rollicking for all the missed sales. They're doing great things of late, but the insistence on little to no forewarning still lingers like the bad smell it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morroccomole Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 If I may speculate here, I'd like to posit that the best selling line of metals could, perhaps, maybe be turned into a new supplement/ plastic line in the future? In that light, its actually brilliant marketing. GW will make money in the limited run of metal, and ensure that their new line actually has a market out there for it. What do you guys think?

P3AKHOUR Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Mannn imagine if you're right and Tallarn ended up selling the best... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 19, 2016 Author Share Posted October 19, 2016 It's possible, it could have been a stealth "what do people want?" survey for all we know. The Kasrkin no doubt sold the best, plus the Tallarn squad is still in the store it's the alternates we're missing again now :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Well, Since I got paid today and had some leftover cash, I decided to do my part. I got a squad of Kasrkin, the Steel Legion Commissar, and Lord Solar himself. I intend to use the Kasrkin to bolster my Solar Auxilia, while Lord Solar will stand in as my Lord Marshal. As for the Commissar, I wanted a cool looking officer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 It is long over sadly, next is Chaos on the 19th. I'm hoping for a "last hurrah" at the end of the run for the most popular ranges for a second chance :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Ive just phoned my store and they said a lot of the single figures (steel legion etc) have been fulfilled but they havent seen any Kasrkin yet so just wait until next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted November 14, 2016 Author Share Posted November 14, 2016 Good news! I should be getting mine today :) I'll make an exception for Kasrkin, certainly won't feel that bad compared to the last metal model I touched (the Thunderfire...) :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sete Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 If they made Kasrkin plastic... Now that would make them a lot of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
