So does this make my original copy more or less valuable o_o ??? o_o

I'm sure next on their to-do list is to reissue the 1st edition of Warhammer Fantasy :D

Good idea!
They can start from 1st edition and then slowly release them all until they finally blow up the world!
And then start all over again....etc, etc, etc....

Isn't that a bit like how the Mayans thought the world worked? Their calendar would run out and everything would start over again.

They did that already back at the 30th anniversary of Warhammer.

When's the Realm of Chaos anniversary?

Looking at that ad, it doesnt say it is limited to the open day, it says it is available first at the open day. So maybe it will be like spacehulk, limited to an unlimited number of rereleases.

That's what I;m interested in. I bought a copy of it from Ebay but it's a terrible copy. Half falling out.

So only available at Open Day, so fuck the rest of the world, and eBay scalpers will make sure it's the most insane item of the year.

Guess it depends how many they have left after the first event.

....

Isn't that a bit like how the Mayans thought the world worked? Their calendar would run out and everything would start over again.

No,no,no Mayan calendar was about preventing the end of the world via blood sacrifices to nourish the gods, therefore preventing it for a bit longer,eg " in order to hold the world in its orbit and prevent it from falling into an abyss of nothingness".

Sort of blood for the gods ...

Anyway completely different idea.... ::)

Slaanesh tried "Nipples for the nipple god" but it never caught on in the same way.

Nurgle:  Farts for the Fart God!  For the authentic game-room smell!  Well mine anyway...
Tzeentch:  Jigsaws for the Puzzle God!
Slaanesh:  Your Mum for the Cock God!  Or am I thinking of Kingdom Death?

What a way to start page 400 of the thread...  ;D

Not had any emails from GW today oddly enough. By the way, the Warhammer app that's supposed to keep me up to date with all things GW has only had Black Library and games and apps updates posted. Nothing about any other releases even though my settings are set to receive everything.

I wasn't too bothered with the Spire set but those elves have won me over so even for them alone it's a damn good deal. Looks like the AoS battleforce sets are mostly unavailable again. I was hoping the Sylvaneth would have gotten a restock like the Orruk and Stormcast ones but I guess they're done now. GW must have overstocked on Khorne sets though.
