The annual price rise has kicked in.

Most plastic boxed sets up to £13.50 (Still a pretty good price I think)
Epic bases down to £2.50 per blister (15p per base)
Warhound Titan up to £16.50
Landing Craft up to £37 ::)
I think the Steam Gargant has gone up a bit too.
Other minor price increases on about 10% of the range on the order of £1-£2

Overall looks like Epic was mostly passed over, and nothing seems to have gone up massively.

Steam Gargant was supposed to go up by $7.50 (4GBP?)

Not too bad, i can stomach the price rise on the plastics and the cheaper bases offset that, given that those are pretty much the only products id buy from GW direct.

The landing craft is highly amusing...

I'm not sure what makes that particular model worth all of the price increases it's seen.

I honestly thought the price of the landing craft was just some kind of error on behalf of GW, is it seriously £37? Better be cast in solid gold if that's the case :D

Given the scale differences between GW Epic flyers and Forgeworld Flyers I think some people people just use the forgeworld thunderhawk transporter as the lander.

Bases still do not seem to have changed prices in the rest of the world yet.

Called GW about the price difference for Bases. Customer Service Representative is sending email to webstore people to look into it.

In the US ... any order over $15 is Free Post ... Very few things are Under $15 !! :o And at the price of the models, it should be free post !!!!!!!!! ::)

I used that about 2 months ago. Order three different epic items all as individual orders since they listed with different lead times but they all turned out to be in stock and were shipped out from the same place to my place in three seperate boxes all delivery at the same time. My wife was very interested in why I got 3 packages.

It does not appear the US will get that new base price globally other than UK. I have emailed (both US and UK) and called and still no change. Anyone else out there want to give it a try. Ofcourse since people managed to crash the website temporally today so the could get a poster and info on the WHFB I doubt anyone is going to get info about some random epic product.
