Ok, second try: You are buying a brand new army, you don't have any proxies or any of it at your house, it's the Space-Lizardmen-Dwarf-Rats. There's a box of infantry, in it are a GOOD mix of commanders, regular grunts, assault infantry. A healthy bit of regular plain old fodder, but quite a few commanders and special troops (no buying 5 boxes so you can get a single unit of Ogryns). How much is one single trooper worth or a box of 100? Also, is there a natural price point in the UK? For us in the US it's $20.00. Everything is either more than $20.00 or less than $20.00. Good information on my last try, I hope this is more clear. Thanks, TrademasterAdam |

I am in the US and I do not agree that $20 is a natural point for 100 infantry. I do agree this poll is better. It is clear on what you want us to "judge" so to speak. Have a great weekend. dafrca |

I marked $20, but that's pretty much the max for high quality figs. |

I think that GW's larger boxes of infantry are pretty good value at $20 for 150-160 individual troopers (about 12 cents per), but the blisters I think are overpriced at $17 for 8 stands (42.5 cents per). By comparison DRM's blister of 8 stands is $8 (20 cents per). |

Sorry, I meant everything (not just figures) is $19.99 or 3 easy payments of $19.99. There is a world of difference between something less than $20 and something over $20, I was just curious as to whether or not that was the case in GBP. Thanks, TrademasterAdam |

Thanks, TrademasterAdam I understand, then I agree. The natural breaks are around the paper money breaks. 5, 10, 20, 50, 100. The level of thought people put into a purchase goes up as you break past each level. Under 5 and people see it as not worth worry for the most part. Break 50 and they really think about it. I think that is one reason the Gas prices have gotten so much more attention this time. The cost caused the "fill up" to break the 50 mark. dafrca |

Hi! While everyone would like to pay less, I think 20 dollars is about right for this quantity of figs. Primarch |

Let's look at some facts: HEROICS & ROS pack of 50 for $6.50, so 100 for $13.00 GZG Pack of 24 for 2.50 pounds, so 100 for 10 pounds GHQ Pack of 60 for $8.95, so 100 for about $15.00 Dark Realm Miniatures Pack of 40 for $8.00, so 100 for $20 $20 is too much for 100 figures in my mind. dafrca |

I generally work on $1AUS per stand as an Ebay ceiling these days, so I guess $15US for 100 figures is about right for me. I have come to realise that you need to factor in bases....so DRM doesn't look quite so cheap, and GW plastic looks like a relative bargain. Who'd a though it!

It's in dollars so I don't have a clue.  EDIT: Here in the UK GW infantry plastic boxed sets are 12 pounds. |
