Looked in the window of my local GW today. Already the Christmas decorations are up, as well as special GW cardboard boxes full of goodies like Cauldrons of Blood and WraithKnights. - Get this box when you pay over £100 in one order!Wow you get a box with Cauldrons of Blood and WraithKnights in it when you spend over £100!? Amazing!...or so the first thought process goes. But no. You don't get anything when you spend over £100. You get a cardboard box with GW on it

LOL if it seems too good to be true, then it probably is GW aren't known for their generosity!

It's not even a proper box. It is more like a display pack and has no lid! Less useful than either a plastic bag or an actual box. But it does have a Warhammer symbol on it

Are you a cat? I think you're a cat. For the Lid+ option, you gotta pay £200, guv. Dem's the breaks. Lids don't come cheap in this town.

Perhaps it's all part of a clever marketing ploy:
1. You want to buy GW models new from the store 2. You realize that you can't readily afford their absurdly high prices 3. You sell your house to generate the necessary cash 4. You buy GW models using all of the cash 5. They give you a free box 6. You move into the box 7. Merry Christmas!

Seriously though, if there are no models released with ET: Khaine I might pick up one of their boxes to use as a proxy for the Avatar of Khaine miniature I'm going to pretend I can field.

But once you get that box, just think of what you can put in it! Oh, the possibilities are endless!
