I don't even tell people I paint miniatures anymore.  I say I'm a connoisseur of sprues.

I just preordered the Kroot scout from a bits seller. The rest doesn't really interest me.

Thanks for the reminder beefcake, have just pre-ordered me a Navigator.

I hope they do a plastic astropath at some point.

Hm, I was thinking of getting the Kill Team Starter Box set, but it looks like it's sold out atm? Both at GW and most retailers, is that unusal?

I don't much care for the techie minis, but the terrain and genestealer hybrids I like, plus you get the rulebook etc.

GW have said they have lots of plans for Kill Team so I expect they are doing another run and it will be available again very soon.

Sure, I was aware it's marked temporarily unavailable, but does that happen a lot with GW products?

Yeah, they cut down on machinery under Kirby, so you find a lot of stuff floats in and out of availability.  It's almost always back in stock in a few weeks.

That happens a lot with new bargain boxed sets.
I had to wait 2 months for Middle Earth Box restock (best bargain they did in heir history - so it sold really well)

Only discontinued starter set without restock was Kill Team predecessor Shadow War Armageddon (and it sold like hot cakes) but they say in advance that certain product are limited.

Kill Team starter was restocked some time ago (few weeks),  so I expect it will return before Christmas (I am considering it as Christmas gift to myself - its much more attractive that buying same terrain alone.

Saying that:
There are certain product you need to buy fast.
Card packs, some dices were limited and Underworlds card sleeves (GW seams to just do them as splash release and I cant buy me Orks and Garruk Reavers sets I want)

Guess I'ma go in on this Blackstone Fortress.  I didn't get the last few boxes (because the exclusive HQ minis didn't really excite me, nor the Rogue Trader stuff) but this one has enough toys to be interesting for a while.  I like the Kroot guy, the Iron Giant, the burninator, chaos Cadians, goatboys, and the main chaos dude.  Also nice to see them expanding/revisiting the lore a bit and trying some new aesthetics, e.g. the robot and the fortress guardian things.
