Time of Madness:

Those prices although high are actually close to retail value in Japan.

I'm glad I don't live in Japan...I definately wouldn't be playing any GW games

NoisyAssassin:

Well that explains why Warhammer doesn’t seem to be terribly popular in Japan…

I don't understand why..GW seems to be leaning toward making their miniatures look like Hentai and Anime characters now

gIL^:

Those prices are insane, What are they thinking?

These kind of stupid moves by GW only feed recasting and piracy. Why would you pay $200 for a Hellcannon when you can get one from China at less than $20, Plus having an embargo stopping UK companies from shipping to Japan so they have to pay $200 for a Hellcannon! So crazy.

Im not being funny but WTF.

kimal79
Yes :hat off

speedygogo:

Makes me feel sorry for the Japanese gamer. However, the tragic reality is that all too many pirated models come from Asia, particularly China. Maybe this is how GW strategically fights piracy of their models in offending countries. If the price their product outrageously high they can ensure that ever model purchased in Japan was pirated. If GW was serious about such things they would drop prices rather than raise them.

Willmark:

GW prices out of line with reality? In other news water is wet.
