So after my last rant, I've met up with most of the geeks and had some conversations about warhammer, most agreed that they hate the new models, some liked 8th edition rules, some weren't so keen...

my beef isn't so much with the rules as with GW (see previous post) and today I felt like looking at some 28mm models again (I would like to "finish" my dark elves if possible and I've got loads of them but no dragon...)

I wondered about replacing my aging 4th edition reapers with the much more stylish current ones, and clicked on the 'rare' section ....

a single finecast Hydra is now FORTY QUID!!! I'm glad I own two already and don't need more now....

my last Hydra was purchased approximately 2 years ago, for the princely sum of £15.... that's right, fifteen, one five, pounds.... how do they justify this madness?? the reapers have gone up from a ridiculous £12 to a mind boggling £18.40.... I have 4 of the old ones..... if I didn't replace them, I could afford a new dragon and a hydra with a bit of change left over....... pricing madness!
