I just bought a harlequin sollitaire for 21 euro's   
I mean, it's a nice model and all, but for 5 euro's extra I get a box of metal infinity mini's.

Yeah but Corvus Belli do like to pass on the workload to the customer. How many hours work is it going to take to clean up and assemble them before losing the will to live and putting them back in the box?

Daeothar - the decals you mention, are they these ones? http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/files/file/171-legio-bolter-chainsword-chapter-marking-decal-sheet/

Yup; those are the ones 

If I recall correctly, I actually have two full sheets of them because in the end I decided that going with a 'regular' Deathwatch squad would be preferable...

I'm setting up a new thread now.

Sweet Jesus, I bought a new box of Aleph. I've cleaned them just to have some hobby time.
Now the assembly part............
Yeah, you have a point....

  It's 'fun' right? 

Whilst the GW stuff might come in as many parts, those figures go together so easily and are enjoyable to build too. When I see a modern GW kit I want to put it together. When I see a baggy full of Infinity bits I want to buy the farm.

So right about infinity figures, I bloody hated building them

It's nice to see kitbashing coming back into vogue at GW.

Duncan is the hero we need, But maybe not the hero we deserve....

(They had a whole heap of people asking for a breakdown of his conversions on the skirmish live streams, So it's really nice that they're giving people the content they want.)

Pre orders are up. First strike looks like a must buy for me.
I really only want the pox walkers and marines, But at £25 it's a 15 saving on buying the 4 mini boxes you get, plus you get the rules/mat/ect ect.

[beefcake]

You know, I even look at the inflated NZ prices and for $65 I'm thinking this isn't too bad a deal. Tempted

[beefcake]

And I just preordered my first GW stuff in a long time. $56 from Mightyape and I was getting some other stuff anyway so shipping wasn't really an issue.

[Storm Wolf]

I have also caved-in and pre-ordered first strike as I like the new bigger, cleaner Marines and the Nurgle stuff looks really good and for £25 proper good

I will mostly using the minis for Shadow Wars as standard marines, but as Crimson Fists I think?

The Nurgle models will make a good Chaos kill team

Luckily all my existing marines are few, and will be retired to space hulk 2nd ed. My unmade ones may become an inquisitor or three.

Plus of course some Lead Adventure Marines 

M`mm what to do with Grey Knight Terminators?

All the best
