[FT] BFG Fighters

I was wandering through the GW on-line store, as I am wont to do when
things 
are really quiet, when I ran across the Battlefleet Gothic "Fighters and

Ordinance".  I have to say, they look surprisingly good.  Even more 
surprising, though, is the prices: they seem to be almost...reasonable. 

They seem to range from 6 (for the mines) to three (for the bombers)
models 
for $1.50.  15 of the "Swiftdeath" fighters for $4.50 is not a bad deal,
in 
my opinion.  It's hard to tell, but it looks as though they should be of
a 
compatible size with the GZG fighters -- and some of them look REALLY
good.  
If you're curious, go to www.games-workshop.com, go to the "On-line
Store", 
and check out the "New Releases" section for some color pictures.

Of course, the capital ships are still absurdly priced.  I'm keeping an
eye 
on Bartertown, hoping someone decides to dump some extras from the boxed

set.

On a semi-related note, I hear that in Australia the Epic 40K stuff was
all 
sold off at 50% of the full price.  Is there a plan to do something
similar 
in the U.S.?  I actually like some of the models, and wouls pick up a
few 
more at that price....
