anyone know any thing about the Games Workshop Space marine game.. or warhammer stuff?

as I have the Space Marine box set and paint, I bought in 1992.


is it a collectors item? worth anything?


I bought it to paint th figures, but got board, so they never got touched other than a primer coat and adding RED and some Green lol

Very Games Workshop

not sure whats its worth tbh,

I would suspect not much, do an online search for your local D&D group, pop

along with it and see what they'll give you.


Have a trawl on fleabay, and see what they fetch

looked on ebay, but can't see the same thing


everything is in the box, only stuff painted is these. all the cardboard building are still on the sheet, all the playing info cards too. Only a few have fell out the holding card they are cut from.






also got two (of the same) GW mag too.

that's "Epic Space Marines" if memory serves me correctly.

Yup epic 40k stuff, though if its in good condition and I dont think they make it any more you may get a fair few quid for it
Now if you have Hero Quest or Advanced Hero quest, that goes for decent cash

The White Dwarf mags dont go for much unless they are special editions or one of the first 10 (I still have number 1 hanging about somewhere in a folder, must check to see if its still in good condition in the attic )

I'll sell the lot as a whole, the game, the paint the mags.

what sort of price should I look at if selling on ebay, i don't want to be selling for £3 the lot lol

EddScott

Very cool

Used to love playing Epic. You might get as much as £60 on ebay. unpainted and all on sprues could get you £100.

I just paid £100 for Space Hulk 2009 edition

http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/5...-third-edition

Haven't got time to paint them myself and my skills are a bit poor so have commissioned these to professionally paint the figures. £150 for all the figures which isn't a bad price - I did get a quote from a multiple golden demon award winner of over £2K.

Just need to convince my 9 year old daughter that playing Space Hulk is better than Deal or No Deal

Lagamorphandy

blast from the past that is! time to get in the loft and find my hero quest and space hulk out i used to be damn good at painting aswell!
The amount of money i used to spend in GW would have paid for that new turbo i want santa to bring me.

EddScott

If they are in good condition they will be worth a few bob!

blimey

got shedloads of the stuff in the loft, used to play Epic, 40k and Warhammer.

Really? Had both of those, wonder if they're still in the loft.... what sort of cash are we talking?

bigsinky

well now there seems to be a few 40Kers on here

EddScott

Up to about £50 if its in mint condition.

Space Crusade and Advanced Space Crusade bring in more.

Space Hulk seems to be the big one. The 2009 edition was only released last September for about a week and almost sold out before it hit the shops. My Games Workshop receipt from the ebay seller is for £58.70 so not a bad mark up considering I paid £100.

If anyone is interested, once I get the figures back from painting, I'll post them up.

SirFozzalot

I've got the original Space Hulk (with an expansion pack as well if I remember correctly )

None of the pieces (Marines or Genestealers) are painted. I think the only bit of damage is some of the "aerials" on the backs of some of the Marines have snapped off (although I still have them in the box ).

I've considered selling it in the past but then when I look at it I get all nostalgic and end up keeping it!

EddScott

Deathwing and Genestealer

Both will fetch a fair penny if in minty condition.

SirFozzalot

I'd be interested to see them.

I remember at school, loads of the other guys were into it and spent loads on huge castles and tanks and stuff. I was never really "into it" but I appreciated all the work that went in to it all and enjoyed seeing some of the amazing detail put in to some of the minitures.

SirFozzalot

Deathwing! That's it! Not sure if I had Genestealer though don't think so.

All boxed (including Deathwing), as new I would say (apart from the broken aerials mentioned before). Probably only actually played it half a dozen times back in the late 80's/early 90's!

How did you manage to achieve that little trick?

EddScott

He rolled an 8 die, has a 3+ wounding on the twin link storm bolter, but the Games Workshop spawn of Nurgle shields itself with a aura of invincibility (his name tag) and manages to win the round and through SDW out the shop.






Least, thats how it would happen in the world of 40K

I've got tons of 40K stuff, the old codex's for Space wolves, loads of white dwarfs, and plenty of figures i put hundreds of hours into. I'd never sell them, real blast from the past!
Probably spent best part of 1k at games workshop in West end (the plaza). Wasted youth!! hehehe
