that's what people said about home printing 25 years ago, printers were slow, noisy, expensive, the finished job look crappy. no one would ever be printing paper in their homes.

True, true, but unfortunately, this will not help us, help me, to get the missing minitaures now, for me to play and complete my collection.

I think, at the moment, silicon mould and resin, is at least for me the best way to get good copies of figurines, that are not available (or for horrendrous prices), anymore.

I really would hope that GW would re-release a set for HQ fans...

they'll never re-release it. your best best is for a recast or (as in my opinion the original models weren't that good) going for a substitute of some kind

please don't kill me for saying the original models weren't that good! :p
