Close but not quite accurate.  Folks beat on GW all the time for their
prices yet Foundry stuff is pretty darn expensive.  If I look at my
entire collection of minis (which I loath to do sometimes) I have lots
of GW but I also have lots of everything else.	At the end of the day
it isn't cost that keeps me from buying something it's if I like the
mini or not.

I can't speak for all GW types but in my local area the GW folks tend
to cling to their minis as if their life depended on it.  So I doubt
it.  I, on the other hand, have no problem using GW minis with SG2.  I
like the 40k fluff and SG2 lets you actually model some of that.  If
Space Marines are supposed to be uber-elites I can make them that way.
 I can also create elite IG squads...
