Oh, another thing, look at this:
That is TWENTY POUNDS!!!!!!! Surely they can't be serious?!?! It's a few pieces of wood, and it doesn't even look that good!Anyone who buys that is a total moron (you didn't buy it did you Rik?
)
The paint starter sets are a good saving, but the thing with them is you cant choose exactly what colours you want, and that is an important decision depending on what you're painting.
that "workstation" is one of the shittest rip offs ever.i wouldnt buy that piece of tat.
instead i got a little coffee table from the charity shop for £5 and carried it home to put in my room.
also the i agree the cases are slightly high priced but due to my mistake of buying that piece of shit £15 case one off ebay i wanted the official one.£30 is a little high but its a small price to pay to keep your models safe as possible.
i remember when i was younger i used to keep them in the inner polystyrene packaging of the box they came in,but remember the amount of times they would snap/fall apart and then need re-glueing or even repainting.
also with the sheer amount of eldar and imperial guard ive bought on ebay in the last year,i wanted to keep them all seperated and neatly stored.
if anything i wish i had bought 2 of the £50 army cases.
i have 2 of the £30 cases of eldar and all thier vehicles i keep in the battleforce box with the old foam inserts from that crap case.
and i easily have enough guard to fill another 2 cases but would prefer to save £10 this time and buy a £50 army case.
maybe i will ask santa for one.
the older GW cases with the red bumpy foam arent bad for keeping a small force in but they are harder to get hold of,i see the odd one auctioned on ebay but can never be arsed to bid.
