If the Indomitus starter set scarcity has got you down, there are still ways for you to get Primaris Space Marines for less right now!
While GW gave game stores and hobbyists the run around on the Indomitus Box Set, at the end of the day they made good on the shortages with their new MTO offering. But if you’re starting your Space Marine collection, it may be a hot minute till your Indomitus box arrives. However, there are still ways to shop smart and get a nice chunk of power armor for a deal. Take a look.
Dark Imperium (8th Edition Starter Box Set)
Get yours at Amazon or Dicehead Games
This box comes with an 8th Edition rulebook which is pretty much a paperweight at this point so we won’t be calculating the value of that. With that said, we’ve also seen multiple price adjustments since this Box Set’s release so here’s the new value with updated pricing on individual kits.
This box comes with:
- 10x man Intercessor Squad $60.00
- Hellblaster Squad $60.00
- Inceptor Squad $50.00
- Primarus LT PS $35.00
- Primaris LT Bolt $35.00
- Primaris Ancient (not sold online)
- Captain in Gravis Armor (not sold online)
- Death Guard Plague Marines $50.00
- Foetid Bloat Drone $50.00
- Pox Walkers $60.00 (only sold as 5 for $15)
- Lord of Contagion (not sold online)
- Noxious Blightbringer (not sold online)
- Malignant Plaguecaster (not sold online)
A large majority of the units inside the box aren’t sold online. However, they probably all average a price close to $30. Using the values we know we’ve got:
Total MSRP: $400 + whatever you value the kits not sold online at
Total Savings: $240
Prophecy of the Wolf Box Set
Get yours at Amazon or Dicehead Games
Even if you’re not wanting to play Space Wolves, you can always buy the box and sell Rangar or convert him into a sick character model. Jumping into the value for this box, we’ve got:
- 10x Infiltrators $60
- Primaris Ragnar Blackmane $40? (Primaris named characters all go for $40).
- New Gazghkull $70? (Abaddon and Guilliman are in the same weight class for model size and go for $60 a pop).
- Makari ??? (Probably included with Gazghkull when he gets released in his own box).
- 5x Nobz $34
- 3x Meganobz $63
Total MSRP: $267
Total Value: $97
Definitely not bad if you have someone to split the box with.
Start Collecting Vanguard Marines
Get yours at Amazon or Dicehead Games
- Ten-man Infiltrator Squad $60
- Eliminators $50
- Phobos Lieutenant $35
- Suppressors $50? Does not have an individual kit yet…Following the price for Eliminators
Total MSRP: $195
Total Value: $100
This is probably the best purchase of them all. You don’t have to find anyone to split a box with and it’s loaded full of the more recent Primaris releases. Suppressors don’t even have their individual kit yet! Plus, saving $100 is really solid.
Indomitus Box Set Pre-Order:
As of this writing, the price has settled back down on the Indomitus starter set as well, and Amazon currently has a supply marked for release on July 25th with a delivery date of August 4-6 2020.
Indomitus is a phenomenal set. The culmination of some of the best work our miniatures, rules, lore and art teams have ever made, this box takes everything that makes Warhammer 40,000 incredible and puts it in one place. Two huge collections of amazing, brand-new models are packaged with the full Core Book – everything a 40K hobbyist needs to hit the ground running in the new edition.
We’ve got a pretty good guess on how much value the 9th Edition 40k Idomintus Box Set has inside too.
Of all of these avenues to take your Space Marine collection down, which one would you recommend the most? Which Space Marine unit is your favorite to use in-game?
