They must really be stuck for money if they want people to buy bloody water pots! Why on earth would anyone spend nearly 3 pounds on a pot??? The 4 well palette would be fairly useless too. Lets hope the brushes are better...

I saw these a while back and wasn't very impressed. The palette screams gimmick so hard it's almost embarrassing.

The water pot is cut to fit the £20 painting station, which is only an advantage if you use one and I don't know many people who do.

By the way, how do you get it so that the words 'scroll to the bottom' would be the link? Thanks

Scroll to the bottom...

And soon there will be Games Workshop Painting Mineral Water at £100 per litre... making it only slightly cheaper than their paint, really.. :-X

I dunno, don't underestimate GW's ability to sell things people don't need.

You know that old expression, "he could sell sand to the Arabs"? GW had to restock their retailers in Saudi Arabia with tubs of modelling sand at least once. Because they sold out.

Of sand.

In Saudi Arabia.

well it is in the shape of an imperial shield or something along the lines of that so it must be worth it

I'm surprised they didn't find a way to theme the water pot to be honest.

I thought it has the imperial wings on it or something like that.

I do prefer a glass jar rather than an expensive plastic pot, but I would rather use a palette than a pot lid to mix my paints on.

Agreed, but it was more for emphasis than anything =P

I belive it was, as GW's website has it listed as £2.95.

I have a link as well, http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catal ... prod50014a . :wink:
