WH40k game Made To Order - Steel Legion

[Harrowmaster]

Yeah €55 for an infantry squad, I'm going to stick with Anvil for counts as. 

[MechaMan]

These were £20.50 when they were discontinued in October 2021. That’s almost a 100% markup - are you mad? 
 

These metal kits used to be quite attractive when they were priced at £20 and the old plastic kit was roughly the same price (maybe even a bit more) but this is ridiculous. 
 

Edit:

 

For reference the Vostroyan MTO kits were. Troopers £25, officers/special weapon gunners/heavy weapons teams £15, Platoon £75

Too rich for my blood here too.  The platoon is nice looking but it’s 220 for 2 metal squads with fixed loadouts, officer and heavy weapons squad again with fixed loadouts, vs 190 for the combat patrol with 2 squads, command squad, sentinel, and ordinance team.
 

As for separately , they are asking $45 per heavy weapons team(singular). A squad(3 teams) in plastic is $60. That’s more than twice as much with with a fixed build. Are they being sculpted in gold?

[conscriptboris]

I sent an email, politely of course. A 100% price increase in 2 years seems ridiculous.

*misty eyed* I remember when GW had more or less everything they’d ever sculpted available from mail order individually for reasonable prices 

[Forward Operative]

Always wanted a Steel Legion army, but after pricing out 10-12 squads and units and releasing it was approaching Warlord Titan prices, guess I will just quietly wait for plastic.

I might get a single heavy bolter team as it is one of my favourite older models they released.

 

The prices are utterly ridiculous and there's no way I would buy anything else to round out my old collection. I think the plasma gunners were cheaper on Ebay despite OOP mark-up!

*whistles while looking at his 5e recast vostroyan models that are indistinguishable from the real deal*

 

I feel your guys pain though. GW had similar prices for Vostroyans which bummed me out big time (25e for one plasma gunner ugh)

If they want to strike gold, models that can be imitated with the Krieg guys, are not it.

 

Give the people what they want GW, you know what it is!

Lol, looks like they realised the photo for the commissar was wrong and took him and the reinforced platoon off the website. Had talked myself into getting the latter, this pause for thought is not good for their sales prospects.
