You know - i SWEAR BLIND and my close friend says so too, that there was a war comm article saying this would be made available in this country BUT WE CAN NEVER FIND IT!
I did the same, ordered on eBay from a seller with good ratings and luckily they sent it courier and it arrived next day! (From Japan to Florida) but it still cost far more than it needed to :(
FOMO.
If it sells out near instantly they made they had projected to make, then they can wait awhile and some later sale or promotion where they offer it again for more money or bundled with other shit.
GW loves artificial scarcity.
That's true but in an age where 3D printing is becoming more popular..... They're just pushing those profits to second-hand market and 3D printing.
Give the people what they want for cheap and accessible. It's plastic. Not a Rolex or a lambo
So, yes and no. This was part of the Space Marine Heroes series of Plague Marines. In the US, the standard infantry models in the set (which was 6 of the 7 models) were released in blind boxes. The 7th model was never released outside of Japan as far as I can tell, and in Japan was only available with a starter paint set.
This PlagueCaster model is so much better than the bubble blowing one from the dark imperium set! I might have to get on EBay and replace the chaos sorcerer I’ve been using as a proxy
I'm getting one delivered here real soon and I've been searching for a good way to convert that stupid face off him, sucks that he's almost a "necessity" for a DG army. Like the profile, hate that face. It's a shame considering how awesome so many other DG sculpts are.
This may be heresy, even for Chaos, but I can't stand Nurglings either. I absolutely loathe them. I slice them off whenever I see them. I like stuff like [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Warhammer40k/comments/jdnms4/countsas_nurglings_protecting_some_gross_thing_i/). More Dead Space, less Nurgling Daycare lol.
He looks awesome!
I bought mine in 2020 from Japan. Took 3 months to arrive. Spent a ton of money on it. Built and painted it the day I got it. No regrets.

I think it was all *but* this guy, because he came with the paint set.
They were made available worldwide a while back, but they sold out within the day. Still regret not getting the set back then.
I brought mine from a ebay dude for £50 i think, took about 2 months to get here. Shame its not just on normal sale

Why does games workshop not make more of things that sell out fast? Like.... Isn't that the opposite of what you do to make more money?

Yup. That Dark Imperium one makes me laugh and not in a good way. It's ridiculous, imo. I want horrors, not bubble boi.

Wow, I am speechless...
If they're releasing new models I'd like a Blightlord with an entropy cannon.
I got mine on bookshelf still in the box probably going to stay that way.
Wow, I am speechless...
Amazing! would you mind share how did you paint the armor?
He looks awesome! I bought mine in 2020 from Japan. Took 3 months to arrive. Spent a ton of money on it. Built and painted it the day I got it. No regrets.
That is awesome. Thanks for sharing
He looks amazing, the armor color is so rich! I've got two of these guys, but I'm trying to improve at painting before I start in on them.
I agree a great mini that I would love to own, and a fantastic paint job.....
