Time to bring Back OOP models..? ( a new eBay record!! )
« on: May 18, 2009, 01:32:29 PM »
Pursuant to Kislev
http://www.sg.tacticalwargames.net/forum/index.php?topic=186.0
and the OOP range in general:
I think it may be a good time for GW to consider bringing back some models:

$86- for a single WarMaster pack!
Amazing!!!
I'm pretty sure that is a record:
I know I've never seen a pack go for more than that, personally

Sad to say: I'd pay up to $25- for a pack of Knights of the Wolf, myself:
That means I'll never get one, apparently,
unless they come back into production.

I know those auctions may be a one-time abberation,
(Teutogen for $77-?!? Swordmasters for $41- ?!?
But I do know that Kislev regularly goes for $20- a pack these days

Sadly: I can't afford to pay for a whole army like that...
Anybody wanna trade an Araby army for my Kislev...?

I have commented on this fact many times.
Over here in the UK, rare OOP stuff sometimes fetches £40+ easily.

But every now and then you do get some bargains.
I picked up a full unit of white wolf Knights for £2 plus £2 postage.
All thanks to the seller listing them as dwarf knights  :D

There appears to be no interest by GW to either cash in on this phenomenon or to re-release any of the OOP stuff.

Surely some of the historical stuff out there these days would allow you to make a Kieslevite army no problem? Steve Barbers Parthian ligt horse are fantastic figures for starters.
