    Rag as much as you want tbh. When I set foot in a Japanese model shop run by a 90 year old lady (who gave me sweets) and walked out with two perfect grade gundams for £90 each and all the mr hobby stuff I could carry I knew we were getting screwed over here on the Warhammers.

      ​​​@@RisingApe Honestly it just makes the buying experience for anything just that little bit sweeter. I ordered a custom resin keycap from Japan a few months ago and I swear that 90% of the experience was just the box itself. The seller had handmade a little paper box out of various papers and tied it with a piece of string, left a heartfelt handwritten note in Japanese and (admittedly broken, but that made it all the more charming) English and a tiny bag of Japanese sweets about half the size of one of those multipack haribo packets. I'll literally never forget that experience just from the purchase of a £40 keycap. Hell, I'd buy more stuff I don't need if I knew I was going to get all that! Cheers for the videos!

    I keep telling people that the price GW charges is not due to higher quality, but rather the price the customers are willing to pay. But they do not believe me.
    Is their quality good? Yes it is.
    Is it $45 for one character good? Well you be the judge for that.

    You mentioned predatory Asian and online companies selling practices in another video. GW is the poster child for predatory sales practices PLUS over priced miniatures.
    Blather on in praise of the lore, but a lot of the "great lore" from the last decade is blatant and subtle retcons to cover for GW's failure of editorial control over lore and GW going through a series of getting their arses kicked in court and other areas over their IP lies. Quick examples, use of Astartes over Space Marines, because it is trivial to show "space marine" predates the birth of GW, heck the birth of GW's creators. Aeldari, because the source of Eldar as a name for elves should be obvious.
    Not going to get into the excessively detailed minis that use the details to justify the excessively high pricing, when the details cannot be seen at the arms length of the tabletop or even require magnification at close range to discern.

    • @RisingApe
      @RisingApe  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t disagree with any of that particularly. Personally I love GW models and lore but there there are also loads of amazing games/ models lore out there too and that’s where I spend most of my time. I would say I don’t mind GW doing whatever they want business wise, i think they operate in fairly standard business practices for company of their size. if people decide to buy it that’s entirely on them and fair play to them.

  • @AllYourSwords
    @AllYourSwords 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Bandai can charge $7 because they are a Massive company. The amount they can produce means lower prices. I’m not defending GW, just comparing GW to Bandai isn’t a fair comparison

    • @RisingApe
      @RisingApe  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m not necessarily comparing the two companies but I am offering up the Gunpla Artifact range as an alternative if you’re interested in new models to buy. You’re absolutely right about the size of the companies though, Bandai turns over 7bn dollars and GW about .5bn

But the way they treat their own empoloyee and cosumers, I found now a day I have better choice at the same level. Meanwhile, many companies smaller in Japan DO have fair quality and price compare to GW.

      @zenster1097 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@RisingApe Yeah. I don't buy the idea of value being based on whatever a person subjectively thinks due to relativism. If someone sells someone a pencil is $5,000,000,000 dollars, and they think it's a good value, it doesn't make it so. It just means the person doesn't understand what the real value of a pencil is supposed to be.

    • @RisingApe
      @RisingApe  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I get what you are saying, but in the case of GW there are lots of things which can add value which can make the price more valuable to them, for example being able to use the models at an offical tournament. for me that has no use so the models are over priced fo others who derive benefit from other services then the value is more@@zenster1097

      GW has the best lore in sci-fi gaming history. Nothing else comes close.
      There are games with cheaper models and better rules, but the theme and setting cannot help but fall short.
