    Games day model

    Hey if I was to purchase a games day uk ticket online would I receive the very cool blood angel games day model along with the ticket as in previous years or do you have to wait for the show day to pick one up?

    Word on the street is that you'll have to queue up and buy them at the show in-person. I'm debating whether or not to try and make an appearance, as GDUK is always right around my birthday and I think there's a UFC event in Nottingham within a week of GDUK this year... could be a damn fun trip.

    I don't know, maybe queuing up all day would be the true British experience and I should just go ahead and do it

    I have an Aussie Gamesday ticket which has a tear off for the mini and a tear off for armies on parade voting. I can only assume it would be the same for UK.

    Just heard that it looks like your gonna have to cue up at Games Day and pay extra for the actual model as that not included in the ticket price. Needless to say I won't bother going this year now!

    You had to line up and pay for last year's Skaven. The really long line is FW. If you just want the games day mini then you should be able to walk up to the register whenever you want.

    So what you're saying is that stub on my ticket which says "Claim one Games Day model" actually means "Claim one position in line to pay for one Games Day model"?

    Certainly at Games Day UK you have to buy the model when you get there. The stub may be to limit it to one model per person.

    I know in the USA the last couple of Games Days I went to, they made us stand in a line to purchase the mini at additional cost.

    Will probably be the standard £12. Not sure if this will be in fine cast though.

    This year's model is Finecast.

    Probably not a fine cast though.

    In Barcelona you get the model with the price of the ticket. And can buy extra copy's of the model for 28.50 euros

    In Germany it“s been this way since they started with GD in 1999 if you have a normal GD ticket. Should you have bought a megaticket the miniature and t-shirt was included, but had to be picked up at the event after a long waiting line.

    To defend GW:

    The 45€ ticket includes the miniature/t-shirt, the 20€ one doesn“t.

    Edit: Oh and I forgot to mention that you get in an hour earlier with the megaticket (which makes up for some waiting time ).
