Man, that is a sick sale.  AT-43 is a little expensive for my taste considering I would be repainting them anyway...but I may have to cave and buy a few of the battlesuits.

That is an FFG clearance sale. Those aren't regular prices. FFG stopped distributing Rackham some time ago and is clearing out stock

Pixelgeek is correct. Those prices are, in most cases, 1/3rd of full retail or less. A few are at 25%. So no, AT-43 is not a major low cost alternative to WH40k.

Now, if you ever wanted to try AT-43 now is the time to buy it. They have the intro basic set with troops and two walkers for $25. The ne walker sells for $25 by it self.

Did anyone else notice the $1 each King Tigers at the bottom?
$1 tanks. Not bad at all.

Dammit. I have been trying to avoid the Red Block... Must... not... buy.

Rackham have rebranded themselves and are really taking off - three more races for Confrontation in the works, and actual AT43 kits.

Those are the World Tank Museum models, 1/144 or 1/160.  Too small to be 15mm. too big to be 6mm.

AAAARGH!  they're blowing out Blue Planet, too!
