CoyoteGospel Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Wow - at $13.25 ea. this makes the Ravenwing Battleforce an even better deal since you get 3 of these in addition to the bikes/speeder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breng77 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Yeah unless you already own bikes, or just want the bits for your other vehicles there is no reason to every buy this. RW battle force = $90 6 Bikes = $90 Attack bike = $25 Speeder = $30 3 Sprues = $39.75 Total value = $184.75 Now while you don't get special weapons sprues with your bikes, you are paying less than half of the price of the contents bought separately. Even if you want to buy special weapons separately (5 meltas is $8) you still pay way less than the separate components. I think it might be the best value of any battle force BA= $133 of stuff for $100 SM=$145 for $90 CSM=$144.52 for $90 Eldar=$124 for $90 Guard = $109.75 for $95 Necrons=$184.55 for $90 Tyranids=$131 for $105 Orks = $123.75 for $90 Wolves = $130 for $90 Tau=$149.50 for $90 Yup DA have the best value at present guard is by far the worst value at only about 13% off the value of what is in the box.

Dark Dajin Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 downside is that the DA upgrade was raised in price. €10,50 for 1 sprue instead of €17,50 for 2 sprues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breng77 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Yeah that is slightly annoying, especially if you want all of your marines to wear robes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LardO'Blood Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Yayz! I don't have to buy a $40 kit to get Belial shoulder pads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Are Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Regardless of the price I think it is good that you can buy it separatly. And perhaps business management also realized how good a deal the RW box is and is releasing the sprue instead of producing more bargain boxes...

Wayward Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 That is my fear... maybe were saying hello ravenwing sprues and bye bye ravenwing battleforce... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breng77 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I'll feel very sad if that happens (glad that I have bought 4 of them so far, but sad that other players would not get the same.). Honestly I'd rather they just raise the price so that it is still a good deal, but not quite so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Regardless of the price I think it is good that you can buy it separatly. You always could -- via ebay :teehee: . Someone somewhere would be selling one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone somewhere would be selling one. Yeah, I know, but I prefer to order as much as I can at my LGS, just to support the business. If he closes down I will have at least 2.5 h drive to the nearest store with a gaming area... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really see how this sprue can replace the battle force, and the battle force isn't gone yet anyway. I think the battle force will stick around at least until the next Dark Angels update, and if it leaves it will be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
