Well North Star are primarily a wholesaler to shops and other dealers, so they will not carry lines that sell slowly.
AoW have always been very nice but pricey, and so the volume of sales is not there to merit stocking I imagine.

I have bought some of their plastic dwarfs on special offer - I think I have a set of each of the three sets, and got 20 figures for around 65p each.

You mean they will be using Ouija boards instead of Tarot cards for their business plans from now on?

Ah! This is what Finlay meant by a "dwarf sale". :icon_lol:

And Midaski probably figured I'd never figure it out. :engel:

Course when I checked in a second time, most fo the sale items were gone already. :icon_eek:

Although, the "Longstreet" rule book is tempting.  No cards though.

No
I'd seen you reference Northstar, and assumed you knew about them and regularly checked their site.
I check their twitter page most days - being a large UK wholesaler they have their eye on most things going on in the gaming market, and refreshingly don't touch any GW stuff ...................




................ of course neither do most LGS these days ...............  :engel:

I didn't even see this last post above until this thread was referenced elsewhere, and I'm here more often than over at Northstar.  Also, there's just too much on the internet nowadays to see everything all the time.  Plus, despite Northstar seeming to have a very good selection of figures, there's always that overseas postage that us folks over here in the States are faced with when we order from the mother country.

... but quite a lot of Northstar stuff is imported from North America so you should be able to get it direct or from the USA wholesaler  :engel:

And thus my visits to Northstar's site aren't as frequent as may have been assumed. :icon_cool:

I've never shopped at Cool Mini or Not before, but just happened to stumble across their closeout section. A number ranges of interest to the Empire, as well as a lot of other good stuff.

Yeah, particularly those female arquebusiers; is it wrong to call female minis 'hot'?

I use humblebundle all the time. It's great. Lots of stuff for cheap, just be aware your not getting physical books. That particular deal will give you PDF's and ebooks. A large portion of the content is 40k, mixed between Horus Heresy and 40k, with the rest a mix of age of sigmar and old fantasy. it's also only the starting books in the series.

Essentially a massive Get Started with Black Library bundle. I myself am probably going to pick it up soon.
