it could be great if there was "big ass starter box"
Ultimate starter box + Introductory box and two brushes
you can unbox it, paint with your friend, learn and play together, everything in a single box
They did that for the Soul Wars starter set for AoS 2e. There was a regular version and one bundled with a hobby set. The bundle was even available at third party retail.
The fact that they have not done a similar bundle for any subsequent starter product likely indicates that it didn't sell very well compared to the regular Soul Wars starter box.
indomitus box was this for me.
i think it was a great value. paid round about 130€ for it.
me and my two friends recently got into the hobby earlier today! my friends shared the first intrudoctory box as one of them wants the tyranids and the other wants the space marines and i bought a small tau package!
Tau is my favorite, but its underloved by gw. For the greater good!
@@barrymarchetto245 For the greater good!
All 3 of these people have been seen by Inquisition
@@robouteguilliman7628 oh god no
@@-Seek-17 I love tau aswell hence the name For the greater good!
A hearty well done to whoever made the 'what's in the box' jingle. Pure genius!
love these Australian release times, i can actually watch things from this channel as they release! go my fellow Australians!
and we get the prices for aus too, 150 for the starter set is less than i expected which is good.
haha I already bought it! XD but I used up all my money thooo
@@Ultrama-ri7pz imma buy a copy in the next month or two, busy with getting ready to move atm. The box art on the starter set looks so good imo.
Those marines are amazingly done, great job. Also love the colour scheme on the nids.
Buying the most expensive starter set is basically substituting more character models (alot more) for some terrain. Personally I don't see this as a win. Leviathan is better for new starters who want to grow an army.
I like the leviathan box. It will sit on my desk pride of place untill i finally get around to paint it😂
Same, soon as I get to Dark Imperium and Indomitus i'll get stuck right into Leviathan!
Love the videos! Very jealous of your big terrain pieces and how much time you get to spend modelling! I got a Leviathan Box and I'm a bit gutted it hasn't come with some terrain to be honest! I did manage to get the game boards and the game tokens with it though! Keep up the good work 👍 Its channels like yours that have inspired me to get back into the hobby! Dark Angles FTW!
I've got the middle starter set last week. This box is perfect for me because i already started the hobby and purchased all the tools, paints and 1 box of intercessors as a starting point months ago. Now that i want to start playing with an actual army, the middle starter set gives me a terminator squad, a captain and an infernus squad. I've paid 55 euros for the box at my local 3rd party retailer since it was on sale and i also had some points from my previous purchases for extra discount.
So for someone like me this box is perfect to give some structure to my army which i can finetune with separate purchases in the future.
Been waiting for this one Dave! Great value for money analysis!
That's a nice breakdown of those boxes!
I think the middle box is more valuable than the big started box the gw terian may be expensive but that doesn't make it good value sense generic sci Fi bunker or ruins are easy to get but it's still nice for new players
Super boring imo, but using existing terrain probably alleviates supply chain issues
@@zeroclutterartanddesign9637 yeah definitely a good choice for new players just not valuable after that
Thanks for the review, my brother and I are gonna give this box set a go….i like they way the painter swapped the color pallet between the armies!
Ummm can't say this is the best starter box they've ever made, I like the orc and space marines one they did years ago
This is why it's so handy to download the PDF. of the Leviathan book to a tablet and trim it to the rules pages.
Is that different than the free core rules pdf?
@@darkaiel I don't think so.
great video, good to see gw is recognising talent ;)
5:38 somebody get my guy a larger shirt 😭 bro getting squeezed out here
6:48 OH MY LORD where has this game been ! NEW PLAYER ARRIVING ❤️🔥
what i got from this: More space bears & Hive Fleet Jotunn
Include the good old Euro as well ... please 😅
It isn't difficult to get the Leviathan box for the same price as the ultimate starter box. I did it just a week or two ago, and it feels like a way better deal at the same price (200usd)
Leviathan probably is not going to get a second printing, while these will be on store shelves until the next edition.
Leviathan isn't getting a second print. So you'll only find them after this year second hand.
@@reachlol1 damn, better get one ASAP then. How much longer will they be in production this year?
Been painting warhammer figures for a year but honestly, I'll probably still pick up some of these even though I play imperial guard
Space Hulk is the entry to forever. 🔥🔥🔥
Planning to pick this up for a new series on my channel. This video has been very helpful, though I'd have liked a better look at the booklet included.
Hey, I’m trying to get into warhammer 40k, do you recommend I get the ultimate starter set or the introductory set?
Space marines and tyranids are my favorite factions so this set is right up my alley
I just got the introductory set to dabble my toes in painting and a couple small battles. I got it over here in the US for 15%off msrp at my local hobby shop. If I like it, they got like 18 Leviathan boxes and said I could have one for $185 it’s like right at 26% off. That’s awesome!!
Back when my daughter was little, she wanted some sisters mini's.... she wanted pink, purple and gold with a tiger stripe theme..... don't know where they ended up as it was almost 20 years ago.... maybe I need to get back into painting mini's
Go for it! It's a boatload of fun. If you don't want a lot of stuff start with the Introductory set. You can add in the biggest one after, the two sets of five Infernus Marines will slot right in, and having lots of Termagaunts is a must, I've heard.
but last two dont have paints so if someone new you have to buy all the paints which make it very expensive
All starter sets should have the paints and such included . I'd feel ripped off if i bought one and that stuff wasnt with it
Oh wow, outsider here hoping to get into 40k when life gets better, and although i knew its expensive and i knew gw has been raising prices recently, actually seeing the prices of these starter kits for the first time almost made me cry. I guess ill never actually be able to get into it and now im actually sad, like my heart actually broke seeing these prices. 😢
Hi, thank you for this detailed presentation. Are the spacemarines of all these kits always Ultra marines? I'm not familiar with the game so I'm not sure to understand what it takes to transform a Space marine squad from Ultra marines to Dark angels for exemple. I'm not talking about specific units but just the basic generic one. Do you just need to paint the Space marine in green instead of blue and the terminator in ivory and green? Do you need to replace stickers and some sculpted symbols? Are there any of these in the starters?
He minis look great, although I intend to get the mid range starter set as its got those new terminators and I am unable to get them in any other way currently
Is there a video out on the painting of those terminators?!? Those are beautiful
I bought the Ultimate Starter Set for myself.
Having absolutly nothing, that Box really jump started me.
Currently reading/listening to 40K lore, plan on buying some sets and considering these sets and black templars, open to suggestions/tips. I'm just now dipping my toes into it.
I have to admit, for GW-conditions, the Ultimate Starter Set is really great! You have all in it to start playing a full game with all rules, terrain and a good board and even two good armies for the price! I still think a (cheap) cutter would round up every box, to really be able to cut out the parts of the sprues, that is not that easy for real beginners! Still a good set!
The mid tier box probably the best value. The terrain addition to this and the biggest necrom starter in 9th is kinda a feels bad. Doubling price for some terrain because GW prices all sprues the same. The old box insert terrain was a great idea, I've used it plenty of times. And if I'm a new player or using this to start a new army I want the most playable models as possible. Also $100USD about what I picture is the most someone is going to impulse buy into this game. Which I think Leviathan priced a lot of people out who weren't already committed to this game.
The issue with the mid tier box is that the armies within aren't combat patrols. GW tries to promote combat patrol as the step into Warhammer way of playing. If you need to buy the missing models separately without discount, you are almost paying the same amount as you would for the ultimate starter box ... which is why the mid tier box is a huge trap and feel bad box.
The introductory box is nice for anyone totally new to the hobby and unsure if they are gonna like it.
The ultimate starter is the best box for new players that are 100% committed into getting into WH but don't own an army yet.
Every other person is most likely best served by buying a combat patrol of the faction they like.
At least that is my opinion about it 🙂
I feel like it was a mistake to not include a shade in the intro set. Shoulda had an Earthshade. Shading for me was the "ah ha" moment when I first started where I could see awesome results in a fast fun way. It got me hooked and they add a lot so I think they should have done that.
If you live in America get the damn Leviathan box it's $250 with $500 worth of models in it
Y after staring with the Leviathan set I almost wish I waited because would be nice to start with terrain and matts and such
Is it really worth paying extra for the "paper" version of the rules when they get updated and corrected?
the only thing that puts me out of trying this for the first time is all the painting, not for me if there was boxset already painted models i would give a try and buy a box
Very important thing to note, the softcover rule book is better than the slimmed down, hardcover 'The Rules' book because the softcover one has combat patrol missions in the back whereas The Rules doesn't have them at all.
Yeah, Assault on Black Reach was a great deal.
- Dice, templates, the rulebook
- Space Marine HQ
- 10 Tactical Marines
- 5 Terminators
- 1 Dreadnaught (with a multimelta arm that was only available through kitbashing or ForgeWorld up til this point)
- Ork HQ
- 5 Ork Nobz
- 20 Ork Boyz
- 3 Koptas (first time in plastic)
Retail price in USA: $75
I can’t tell you how many of those boxes sold and got new people into the hobby. And veteran gamers bought that box up to expand their existing armies (Hell, I started an Ork army BECAUSE of that starter box).
The Original star craft artwork for the tyranids looks so cool.. what could've been.
Day 3 of asking for murray mondays
Murray Mondays, Dave December and Jane January
I don't know what Murray Mondays would be but im all for it👍😄
If they added a chaplin in term armor instead of a captain, they would have gotten everyone.
My brother in the Emperor. What on earth. If you said "Librarian" I would have gotten it. If you said "Apothecary", I'd have gone "yeah sure, but the theming of the apothecary is a bit nicer". But the Captain? You *need* a Captain. The Terminators are returning bro, how would they not have a Captain. You NEED a Captain. Anyways, I left a dislike on your comment
@catcadev ok but I said it because the leviathan box just came with both an Librarian and an Captain In term armor. This next box would have made so many new collectors terminator army feel complete.
I got the starter box based off this review. I was going to get some anyways. These things are a pain in the ass to put together and paint. I suck at painting but if you put mine together I'll paint yours.
"Average" is over-selling that brush.
You're right. My sarcasm wasn't strong enough. The starter brush is hot garbage
Aggressively shite?
Are the models push fit?
I suck at painting. Wish we had some product that was pre painted
Is that the exact same terrain as the last box?
Was going to get the leviathan set... Not worried about price, it's 300 dollars in Canada.. should I still get that? I can build terrain too
First time I've noticed the Level Up 5e books, have you made content about it or is it just something you enjoy?
What about the primer for the figures?
I bought the Ultimate Starter box, im excited for my first warhammer experience.
Also hope the do this with their other systems.
Goes it have the mission cards in it?
honestly, as someone who bought the leviathan box and who's folks are getting interested in getting some models to paint and maybe play, the ultimate box appeals to me a lot for something to get them. 2 full combat patrols, one for each of them, a board, some terrain and the mini rules, all three of which would be great to have, though admittedly I wish there was a bit more to the terrain, but that's my only real complaint.
does anyone know if i you get the training missions with the ultimate starter set im new never played but wanna get the ultimate starter set in case i get into it i can play bigger games in the future
Hi just wondering if the blood angel space marines are good for a starter
Yes. They are a great faction to start with. Plenty of law, bespoke characters and their rules are some of the most well defined in the game. Note: they are strongest in melee.
Are these snapfit minis or more traditional?
1:33 hold up… my brother got me that box after id spent all of 2023 texting him questions. Now i wonder if he saw this video.
Nothing better than Dark Imperium will never be made. Period.
the ultimate set is perfect for 2 siblings wanting to play warhammer together
Is Warhammer 40k Ultimate Starter Set good choice for someone whos own already Warhammer 40k Command edition?
Awesome video ha ha add and nice work Warhammer finally doing the right thing and next they should be inviting you to HQ.
I would do it just for fun I love painting
Assault on Black Reach the best, 80 bucks for a dred, 5 terminators, spacemarine tact squad and captain, and whatever else the orks had.
2/3 of a legal Ripper Swarm 😂
Do you not get transfers in this box?
YOOOo! I love what you guys do!
if i can get a ultmate starter set for €128 or the starter set for €68. what would be the best deal? seeing as i am new to the hobby
Thought the Starter Set section was misleading showing painted figures. Remember we are talking about potential newbies who are looking at getting their first figures and trying the game. Also I would certainly guess the painted figures are not using paints limited to that provided in the basic set. I appreciate wanting to show your well painted figures off but is this really the place? Not trying to be disheartening, hopefully this comment is seen as constructive.
Ma fille de 10ans préfère peintre que de jouer.
Mais c'est indiqué partout figurine non monté non peinte.
Ça peut justement motivé de voir les autres et de belle peinture
just curious, you give the price fo uk, us and australia, why not include the €?
The introductory set is brilliant. It gives an actual full introduction to the hobby to someone who is curious about the hobby.
The starter set is a trap.
The ultimate box is almost perfect. I’d say the lack of a full core book with all the lore detracts from the box. All of these boxes are nominally for beginners getting started in the hobby. If you are new, getting those 200 plus pages of lore and art really helps to immerse you in the world. Still, given that GW stopped including the full core book in starter sets ages ago, it probably is one of the best starters they’ve made.
We concur! The starter set is only desirable for established players seeing cheap minis - but with the mix of models, is it even worth getting in multiples? Better off waiting for the inevitable magazine collection or box splits
I don't need any paint or cutting pliers or terrain, just miniatures for my Curiosly Assembled Collection.
But bloody Games Workshop didn't send the Leviathan box to the retailer where I usually buy, so I can't get a good deal on it, otherwise there's no point.
And so I would buy a Leviathan, but I will have to buy an average middle starter set, probably.
The middle box is definitely the best value for raw minis for an established collector!
Leviathan cost 140 USD in Norway at the start now 160 USD
2/3s of a legal ripper swarm lol. It makes sense that thats how theyre sold, but its still funny
Good revieuw, but i missed the euro price a very big miss
meanwhile, battletech starter box: $60. Comes with rulebook, mini novel, lore primer, two double-sides map sheets, two dice and two full teams of minis.
Kinda nuts that only the smaller set has paints
Can I make a suggestion on your Custom Space Bears?
Name them simply….. The Kodiaks
Best starter pack in 2024 is a Resin 3D Printer
black reach was the pinnacle of starter boxes, change my mind
10:11 what unit is it?
Have I missed something? Is Jazza no longer doing TTT
Think you will ever paint and make Necrons?!??
I think Rob started a Necron army back in the day but not sure what the status is as he is fairly busy and not really appearing in TTT videos much anyways.
I loved the video and reviews! But also how dare you exclude the price in € 🤣
None of these boxes are for me because i don't collect Space Marines or Tyranids, and don't intend to, but this was still an interesting video.
I got Leviathan for $300 CDN. (CDN monopoly money is roughly the same as AUS dollareedoos.)
Definitely worth it vs. Ultimate starter.
it feels like the middle set is perect in a way.
I dont care about terrain( which probably makes almost half the price)
Are these the new gaunts with special weapons?
No these would be the same models from leviathan
*shakes fist*
I bought Leviathan, am I screwed?
Heya. Great video. I have a question. My son has shown an interest in 40k and I’d like to support him in this (disclaimer I’m getting seriously hooked into the lore myself) however he’s turning 8 in August and I’m not sure if it’s too early for him? The actual game seems pretty complex even to me, and maybe way way out of his reach, also some of the themes are very dark and perhaps not suitable yet? Would you suggest just getting a few models and paints and just starting out like that? Then he can discover more about it as he grows?
Cheers.
So in my experience as a game store owner, typically kids get the full grasp around 11-13. However some particularly passionate or focused kids seem capable at that age of 8-10, but it definitely needs to be a core interest for them.
The lore is deep and dark, but it's easy avoid as most of its depth is buried in thick black library novels, and overall it is a satire. There are some great children focused books they released if you can get your hands on them, focusing on child protagonists and aimed towards 10-12 year olds that could be a great start.
The hobby itself is a fantastic parent child shared experience, but just dip your toe in, it's easy to be a "too hard" experience that might get forgotten about in a few weeks at that age. Obviously, it's up to you to decide what is best for your child, but that is some broad advice.
If he is really keen, the best starting spot would be just the basic intro set with some models and paints, don't worry too much about the game, and keep it PG with the child focused lore books. "Warhammer Adventures"

Wow thank you for such an in depth reply. I defo feel more confidant going into this with him now. I’ll have a look out for the stories you mentioned and I’m looking forward to getting a stater paint set and miniatures to get started with.
He’s already picked out Necrons as his favourites, so it will be something involving those.
Once again thanks and we will be watching some of your videos together soon.
Ben (and Alex).
Right now I can get the Ultimate Starter for $210 or Leviathan for $250. Seems like Leviathan is the much better value, right?
Dave called it, I'm currently building an army after not playing 40k since 2nd Ed and the only thing I'd be keen to pick up from the starter box is that mini-rule book.
Leviathan Cost 150
Ultimate Starter Cost 125 with a change of 5 Sternguard, 10 Neurogaunts, and Data Cards for a not so good looking terrain 😥
Idk about you guys but I'd rather get the Levi Box for 25 more with more models and cards and dice tray that is more useful in game..
In Australia the difference is $120
i would be tempted to just get the cheapest starter set just to paint the tyranids. i collect astra militarum so dont want to add too much to the pile of shame XD
Guys stranger things is stranger things meets dnd- like, you’ve seen the show right?
What is a show?
@@TabletopTime I mean, it’s kinda like TH-cam, but longer?
