  1. I too look forward to the book and DVD. I can't say the same for this iteration of "official colors". Honestly, how many shades of green, no matter what the name, do you really need? And if the price keeps going up, it becomes more cost effective to shop around and try some other company's offerings. Paint is paint, ink is ink, and the results are hopefully what you want them to be.

  2. I look foward to eventualy replaceing my current megapaint set... when i run out of enough colors... the book is a diffent buy...
    but the rest, ill pass. if i get the regular paints and already have two sets of brushes, dont use the GW glues at all any more.. why bother.
    Priceing is still pretty consistant with the paints even thru other lines... its choice of the colors you use(if your not a contract painter that is) nad thats usually where it ends. there is no need to own every color, I dont use even half of my paint set as it is..
