I'm sure it will carry a $170 price tag at the very least...which is painful.

Shame too because I really like everything in the box. But the prices keep going higher with the number of minis lower. 😞

Yeah, I was thinking that the other day.  But if 16 miniatures for $ 170... so like $ 10ish a mini.  Aren't they sold for way more in packs after release?  Don't know but I thought I saw single minis going for like $ 20 - $ 30. 

Again, not sure but if that's the case then at least the price point per model is good.

The actual math is likely

• Total:  $290
  • Autarch - $35
  • Asuryani Rangers - $50
  • Shroud Runners - $50
  • Warpsmith - $35
  • Chaos Chosen. - $45
  • Forgefiend - $75

Oh look, the $170 is actually a savings of $120. What a deal.

I think this does mean that ebay NOS Forgefiends will be back under $50.

As a long time Eldar player... this isn't giving me anything to feel like going back to play 40k.

The aos box gives 42 models. Gw giving a "deal" on massively overpriced models to begin with earns them no points.

MSRP is $ 200

[Brother Glacius]

oh well, I was interested in getting that box...not so much anymore.

Anyone interested in splitting the box for the chaos half for $85?

I’m interested in keeping the Eldar half and it will pretty easy to find the box for $170 rather than $200.

I’d be interested in splitting two boxes total.
