The captain is sick. I wonder how poseable the librarian is going to be with the plastic robe. Still the sculpts haven't ceased to amaze me.
Okay, I'll be in with proper Space Marines and their Chaos counterparts. Just not a fan of the Intercessors small boots. Greaves or GTFO.
Nice. Those come in at just about the perfect size for my purposes. Now we wait to see what price they'll go for. Flyima had them listed at $180, $150, and $132 with discount.
Joy Toy's Instagram and Facebook accounts were driving me nuts today spamming all of the new pics by (I guess) folks who have received their figs. It was endless and nuts but looked damn good!
Yes, me too...to the point I got pissed. I'll be looking forward to any possible announcement made by GW about it, meanwhile here's a new pic of the Intersessor pack.
Well Game Workshop Official just posted about the figs on their IG and Locker Toys also posted a review and a watch this space so it looks like things will be rolling out soon globally with any luck.
Rollercoaster of emotion today MTO pre-orders via GW starting on Sept 25th... https://www.warhammer-community.com...-with-new-vanguard-space-marines-from-joytoy/ and away we go!
I've never ordered directly from them before... how's the shipping and any idea on the price? Though I do like that it's made to order so at least they shouldn't sell out or anything before the preorder period ends.
That's a good question. I haven't either. We know they went for $70 USD on pre-orders in China but that was also an "early bird" discount. I haven't seen any pricing yet from GW. I guess we'll find out next week...
A rollercoaster indeed!, I got pretty hyped when I read Locker Toys' post...'till I read GW announcement and personally I'm not cool at it. Lately it seems to be a toothache to be able to buy the toys/collectibles that I like, we'll see how GW handles this pre order and I'm definitely curious to know how much they plan to charge for the sets, they can hold on the made to order release thing and thus justify any price they want. And well I think the post from Locker Toys no longer means anything.
Ok, just a couple of things I'd like to comment, first apparently some information has started to circulate around the web indicating the price for the both sets will be $ 100 each. Second, I have contacted Locker Toys and they have indicated they'll carry the figures but it will be after GW has closed their pre-orders, they did not indicate a price or if others outlets will be allowed to sell them or it's just a resale.
Unless they just kill you with shipping, 100 seems reasonable to me. I assume the 70 someone quoted earlier was before shipping from China or wherever? What's the retail on these abroad?
Indeed, JoyToy was charging approximately $70 per set, but as already mentioned that was an "early birth" price given they were testing the waters within the Chinese market, on this side of the world they might easily ask some more (I hope not), but yeah, it's reasonable considering that Flyima was asking $150 a set and some third parties or individuals on AliExpress were asking over $180. Now the shipping would be another aspect to consider, I know GW offers free shipping on orders over $130 but that's when you buy the miniatures though.
