Ebay, some guy in the UK was selling out-of-box models like crazy for dirt cheap. I got a lot of stuff at yard sale prices. Nothing like that on there now, only scalpers and stores with mrsp prices

I've heard some stories like that actually, not quite on that level obviously but similar spirit. Selling 5k worth of old metal models for 200 bucks at a garage sale, that kind of stuff.

I bought the far right Troll statue for next to nothing on eBay, though I had to flip it for a measly £300 when I fell on hard times. I should've recast it because it was priceless in terms of rarity.
I suppose it doesn't matter not 3D printing has advanced but shame. I used to hope to collect the old FW busts for Greenskins but you can just print an alternative readily now.
When Dominion dropped no one locally wanted Hobgrots so I was trading paint pots, an oat bar, or just watching some guy's minis while he went for a piss to get them in 40s or 80s batches.
I still think they're worthless but people will always try to sell them at GWs RRP

What's the difference between the basically unavalible cardboard from the 90s and basically unavalible metal from the 80s?

the unavailable metal has newer versions with the same rules while a black lotus doesnt get reprinted anymore.

Saw some hostility to Cathay CoS proxies at my lgs but I wish it was more common because modern CoS is too homogenous
Empire, Bret, Cathay, Wanderers, etc proxies better fit what CoS was for a decade
People have been huffing copium since Warcry 1e about realm themed CoS but we are never getting anything actually indicative of the setting.

Checked out the free sample of Blood of the Godeater. So the synopsis of the novel says it's about Heldanarr adopting a couple kids, but it's quickly revealed in the first chapter that the two infants were fathered by a Harbinger of Nurgle, who had corrupted the rest of his family and meant to do the same to them. Nasty bastard, too, his face had rotted off and his eyes were gone, he bled black tar and his thumbs had mutated into hissing jointed snake heads. After four months of warfare he had somehow also earned Heldanarr's respect as a rival, even being thought of as a friend despite them only ever having been enemies. Also it's set up that Kaddarar is still around and she will immediately move to murder the babies if she ever finds out Heldanarr is harboring them.

>Known as the Chooser of the Mighty, Ma Maegran is a strange, mystical creature whose reputation as a seer and a witch leads even the great Mega-Gargants to show her respect and deference. It is said that she can bestow the blessing of almighty bigness upon one who might please her, but that she can also strip it away from those who earn her ire.

>In battle, she is accompanied by two Ancient Ghyrochs – ornery megafauna that pulse with the life magic of Ghyran – and she bears an uncanny ability to go unnoticed by her enemies until practically on top of them. Though that might be because she simply refrains from hollering, bawling, and smashing like her less restrained kin.

She sounds pretty cool. Mysterious matronly figure who appears out of nowhere to make good boys big and bad boys small. Contrasting the "tall tale" flavor of SoB's fluff in 2e, this sounds more like you what might expect of a fairy tale told by these oversized dunderheads.

The thing is: If it has genuinely good painting people might buy it for a mark up.
The issue with most used models is that they are not really pro painted, most photos has some "oh this is bad" feels and because of that there is not a true secondary market for used minis.

If there was a "golden demon finalists" sales site we would probably see some bs prices, like 2k for a single model being ok and actually selling.

Between the new giants and ogres, I'm glad millennial women are finally receiving representation in AoS, they just need to replace these boulders in her hands with cats which I'm sure will be an easy kitbash. It's awesome so many new female gamers are about to flock to GW stores to buy up all these fantastic new models, especially since all the new named characters and leaders just happen to be women. I cannot wait to see what kind of army lists they come up with when they start signing up for my LGS league.

Matriarch shaman has been the nr 1 most requested unit for sons since they got released. Might even be the most requested unit in the game honestly, aside from cogforts.

It’s recency bias. Those are recent models I’d exclusively call faction leaders. If we want to throw in named heroes it gets a little hair-splitty with stuff like Abraxia, Lady of Vines, Belthanos, Zonn, Grell, and so on. Also, parroting other anons that a matriarch is the most requested thing for Sons to have gotten. She just happened to get a name, too.
>>
>>98522658
Ah fuck, forgot Krethusa. She’s a similar case to Droggz in that they lead a faction within the playable race.

That is how hominids work, yes. Even if a female gargant is weaker than a male, she's still ridiculously superior to almost any other non-monster combatant, so there's no real reason not to bring her along.

we need more of that. weird offshoot factions within an army representing different aspects of their culture led by some quirky small or medium character with a cool model. not full on centerpiece material but interesting side guys. horticulous slimux is another good example, just in his own little lane planting a garden, totally changes how the army plays.

Really good model. Full of cool details that aren't the lazy copypaste you often get with giants.
>>
>>98522806
The people who tend to say shit like "You can't do anything with fimir" tend to be least imaginative fucks around. It almost always boils down to one of two arguments, either they massively overinflate the one problematic aspect of their lore and act like that's literally all they were ever known for and you can't get rid of it without fundamentally reinventing what Fimir are, or it's circular bullshit of "If you could do something interesting with them, someone would have by now, so that must mean you can't."
>>
>>98522467
No point replacing a functional kit in an army that only had two kits. Also Mancrushers as-is do have a functional different niche in army building. They're hybrid melee-ranged instead of all in on one or the other like the new guys, and you can still take them in singles to fill small point gaps in your armies, whereas I expect the new kit to always be 3 giants MSU.

Dark Crystal?

It doubles the number of available kits and makes them a functional army. Having to Buy/Build the same fucking (overpriced to hell) big guy kit 3-4 times was the biggest barrier to playing SoB. Now they're actually kind of an army, while still being even bigger and more elite than Ogres.
>>
>>98522797

>>
>>98522789

Even just in the units they've canonically had without even using any imagination whatosever you've got almost enough for an average army's wave 1.

>Meargh
>Diarch
>Noble
>Fianna
>Shearls
>Boglars

That's 6 units there and Helsmiths of Hashut for instance only have 9 so just think of 3 units that fit the vibe of 'primordial celtic evil'. Off the top of my head you got:

>Wicker Man centrepiece model
>Swamp Kelpie (like what they gave to Nurgle)
>Cat sith monstrous cavalry

Those three took me 30 seconds to come up with and type out, I'm sure I could come up with more and better if I were to actually think about it.
>>
>>98522827
As well as what I said >>98522862 you could just take Fimir and give them different weapons like 90% of alternate kruleboy units are.
>>
>>98522853
>attack on titan abnormality class titans,
post 3
>>
>>98522862
You could also throw in Nuckalevees since those things seem to be associated with Fimir pretty often due to the common celtic origins.
Maybe make one or two of those kits a dual kit to further pad out the roster, in addition to the obligatory named character. A long ass time ago I came up with and wrote down some of my ideas for what they could do with them, but that was on a hard drive that died so I no longer have access to it. There were like, 7 other units I came up with that would be spread across 4 "Kits" in addition to what you listed and Nuckalevees, though I dropped boglars since I didn't see the need to include extra small dudes when shearls already were a thing

Boglars do have a bit of an issue of "How the hell would they fit" since Fimir are kinda big and would thus tend towards being a more elite army, but they ALSO already come with smaller versions in shearls. What their actual role in the army would be a bit vague unless you wanted to give fimir a unit of turbochaff that would barely interact with their potential army rules for whatever reason.

Daughters of khaine launched with male models, so they'll be fine. I do like scions as an option though.
>>98522969
I think if you were to go the fimir road you'd have to just add a bunch of random swamp monsters, which is kind of what kruleboyz ended up doing anyway. Seriously their range feels like it has more centrepieces than other units.
With fimir you'd probably end up doing more druidic stuff too, so you could steal some of the albion shit too like fenbeasts and whatnot.
>>

>Daughters of khaine launched with male models
The males in DoK are third class shitters, nowhere close to the meat or rulers of the army, while that's the case with gargants now.

The thing is, Shearls are kinda already the first one.
>>98522991
I already Suggested Nuckalevees for Fimir "Cav". Though if they wanted to add in actual cavalry for fimir, it 1000% should be fimir on chariots, as a callback to how Britons were like, the LAST place in europe to still regularly use chariots in warfare. Don't have any of them riding anything.

Fimir appearing and vanishing into the mists also fits Nuckalevees better, since I believe that they can breathe diseased fog.
Plus if you go down that route, you could focus more on the "Horror movie monster" vibes fimir sorta have going on. Maybe put a dash of cryptid in there since they got hints of that going on too. There's definitely places you can go with them is the point I'm making

The only reason they ended up not getting finished is cause Bligh fuckin' died.
The Diarch is a really interesting case since in one version of the monstrous arcanum, it actually HAD points and a special armybuilding rule assigned to it, even though it didn't have any scroll available at the time.

the
Actual problem is you try to apply this to real life and are like "haha, I would like a classic 1993 Fimir warrior, surely it will be cheap" and then it's like 100 bucks.
Because the market sets the price and the people who have them are scalpers willing to hold for years to sell for a lot instead of trying to dump "junk with no rules".

Like back in 2023 when harlequins were revealed to not get a codex in 10th edition and were going to be folded back into the eldar codex with dark eldar also using them, some guy on ebay sold me 5 quins for 15 bucks. but he was like "actually I have no use for these" and gave me like 7 more quins and some quin bikes too for cheap. but you look at ebay now and even with this and that, they're like 45 bucks for a troupe and 45 bucks for 2 bikes and so on.

People don't actually consider something useless because it has no rules.

Even simply being able to sell something like an old 1990s avatar of khaine for 40 bucks instead of the 100 bucks the New 2020s one sells for (or the age of sigmar one) shows people are assigning collector's value to stuff that should be like 10 bucks at most and charging more, and there's no alt market for it. And because it's the Collector value that makes it desirable you can't just be like "just 3d print it r-tard" because the value doesn't lie in simply having a playable 3d print, but the classic 1993 model.
>>
>>98523690
