Yes i bought all my 3k army of WM Dark Elves from GW, and 2 units of night goblins and 2 units of trolls.

Most of the castings were spot on, good as new. I know the guy that cast them up, he wasn't happy with me for ordering them hehe ;D

Only problem i had were a few of the lances on the Cold One riders were bent over and weak. Some snapped in my hand as i tried to straighten them, and also some very minor mistcasts on Cold Ones as well. But not mould lines from burnt out moulds, it was things like the champions sword not formed, and a Cold Ones leg not fully formed. You can get all those from brand new moulds.



If this is true what does he have to say about the OOP stuff?  Are the unused moulds still around?

I just wish they would sell miniatures that are listed as a choice for your Army i.e the Bret Trebuchet.... you can have it in your army but they don't make it anymore  >:( 

All the other "optional" troops that provide variation are fine but how about providing the basic miniatures for each army?

I have just picked up part of an Araby army , from my local GW store the figures i did get were very good , showing only minimal flash . However i didn't get mounted knights or camels as i was told these were out of stock and to try again in May !.
I hope this is the case ?.

If you ordered them direct from Gw, how can they be "out of stock"??
They should just cast up some more to complete the order?

Unless they're not casting up any more and there's just the figures in the factory bins left....... (gulp).

A lot of the Araby stuff is currently out of stock, the dates for despatch vary from 2-5 weeks, I guess they're recasting them but rather slowly.

I'm praying for GW vouchers from my loved ones for my birthday in June - so I can get some WM skaven.
