[...] GW Kitchen towel equivalent and toilet tissue. [..]

For some reason, that particular snippet made me shudder with revulsion at the thought! 

[Modhail]

Don't they issue the latter anually, at the start of the investor's report? 

[Momotaro]

GW Kitchen towel equivalent and toilet tissue. Dye black, emboss with skulls - list as limited edition and hike the price accordingly.

Think I'll skip on the spiky "Mark of Khorne" Chaos toilet roll thank you.  "Blood for the Blood God" indeed 

Palettes and water cups?  Ice cream tub lid and yoghurt pots.  Lots of yummy freebies with them too!

I use corflute board from an old abandoned project.

[Momotaro]

The other thing they sneaked in is the new price of the "three monster" kits.  They're mostly in the range £28 - £35 (although it wasn't THAT long ago they were £20); the new venomthrope/zoanthrope kit is £40...

[YPU]

Personally I use hand forged Brass cups for my water. But then I have piles of the things lying around from practice.

I seem to remember P3, the privateer press paint stuff, doing a wet pallet some years ago that got good reviews. I was wondering why they don't make a SKULZZZ version of that but I suppose that they do not approve of mixing your own colors, you should stick to the prescribed silly named ones.

[Constable Bertrand]

And Khorne forbid it's a wet palette! The users would consume less paint. On second thoughts let's make the paint pots have cruddy seals so the paint dries quickly too.

[Tactalvanic]

Oh no!

And the three other variants have sold out for UK purchase !

Oddly there are some different types available for US pre-order and delivery, lucky USA !

A just before christmas price rise? well - nothing new there then

You're seeing that wrong, according to GW those are "price adjustments"...

Technically it's an exciting new luxury price on a new kit.

Maybe the price is what GW are talking about when they say "limited edition"?

"New, limited-edition kit, only £40.  Get it now before it's £45!!!!".

It's funny how often it works out exactly like that...

You sir are a genius and should get payed or at least a commission from Kevin the GW Puppet "Master"

Maybe a free skull perhaps. that might be stretching it a bit though.

Mind you its been their policy for a long time now, but at least we have a good name for it  

  Limited edition pricing.

How about a skull-pipe (for the discerning grim-drak Gentleman)?



I hear that they're every Commissar's "must-have" "limited edition" item this year!

Not their style, the sculpting on the skull is too realistic.

[Modhail]

Now that, despite there being even less chance of me actually using it than GW's latest limited edition abomination-of-the-month, I'd actually prepared to pay GW price for....  
That's a wonderfully unsetting piece of smokeware.
