And how much does a single Wraithguard model cost?

Think Wraithguard are about £8-£9 each...dunno how much they charge in the states. So to get a decent size squad thats £40. Or in my case....£88 (i have 11). Which for one unit is a little bit crazy.
I can see grotesques being a plastic launch eventually so people can swap and change with plastic wracks. But the leader of the squad (an Aberration) maybe being in metal. The Incubi box set doesn't come with their squad leader...
For me wraith Gaurd are $18 a pop in Canadian Dollars. So that's $90 for a squad of five before Taxs!
Ogryn are even worse! At $26.75 a pop your looking at $133.75 just or 5 models! That's not even funny!
O____o
I could buy a battle force for that kinda money!
The fact that Grotesques are more bulky then wraith guard makes me fear the worse if they do make them metal.

It could be worse you could spend $77 Canadian for a basic squad if you play a Witch Hunter army. Thats no vehicle and no special or heavy weapons with a Sister Superior. Granted its 10 models, but that is the minimum you will spend on a full squad. Old metal is bad. Jes can't get the plastic Sisters done fast enough for me.
It's something around 120 USD to get a full squad of Sisters, no special or heavy weapons included.
I heard this week that there will NOT be a Battleforce for Dark Eldar, probably because of a similar issue as with Daemons and the four Chaos powers. Given that a lot of DE players are Wyches only or Kabalites only, a mixed Battleforce might not be the seller they'd need it to be to be worthwhile. And of course, shelf space in mostly small GW stores is always an issue when they decide whether or not to produce another large box and may have factored in here as well.
That's too bad, but not unsurprising. Well, I'll just make my own eBayttleforce.
Well, DA do have like, three different battle forces...
