Are there other hobbyists that literally go out of their way to shoot themselves in the foot every chance they get? It's legit baffling.

    TFW you can't get a resin printer because you live in a studio apartment and there's nowhere near enough ventilation :sadness:

    Even if 3d printing isn't an option and you don't know about recasters, just buying from any online store anywhere in the country should get you a 15% discount minimum.

      I know it’s the end of the edition, but the 9th edition starter pack is like 43 bucks right now

        Sadly I am a Guard player so I just get the (awful) Combat Patrol.

      If recasters are the problem then play a faction that doesn't use them like orks or zergs, or even put like a little staff on a necromorph and boom, recaster (idk I don't play 40k)

        Recasters are people who make recasts which is to say they make a silicon mold using official minis and then hand cast the mold in resin, creating identical copies. They're usually half-price or less, though it varies, and the quality tends to be lower. Also they're typically based out of countries that don't care about copyright law, so China, Russia, and (formerly) Ukraine.
