It’s difficult to tell all of the pricing on these units. We used our price point from the initial units spotted in our Shadowspear Box Set break down. However, this is the only other avenue outside of Shadowspear to get over half of these Chaos units inside still.
Total MSRP:Â $255
Total Value:Â $160
While there might be technically more than ten on our list, it’s only because there’s another Start Collecting Box out there that shares the same value point. But after looking at this roundup, it’s safe to say that there are plenty of great deals still out there for starting a new 40k or Age of Sigmar army.
Which Start Collecting Box from this list has the most useful units in-game? Would you recommend buying more than one of these Start Collectings?Â
