Is there a site that sells individual BL units or a trading forum somewhere for BL units? I am interested in acquiring some units (i.e. hyena riders) but am not interested in more of the other units from those sets.

EDIT: I'm an idiot - I see what you mean now: already have the expansions, just want more of a particular unit...for any who saw it, forget the post that previously inhabited this space

Maybe hit up ebay. In the past, I've been able to purchase specific units of 3 or 4 figs. Every now and again, someone will open a set and sell the components off piecemeal.

Thanks I will keep checking ebay.

I was at a LGS yesterday looking at the 15' of wall space dedicated to reaper minis and was thinking how nice it would be to have that kind of space devoted in individual BL unit blisters. I know the individual unit blisters was BL's original proposed distribution method. That would have been nice.

Amen.

And wasn't it going to be monthly blister pack releases too?

Monthly blisters may have been the original intent, but Days of Wonder said the retailers did not want to carry them, so they changed their marketing plan to bigger expansion sets.

yup.

A couple of units or a creature a month at about $5 a pop, I was thinking. Seemed reasonable to me.

Though, if FFG starts rolling out complete armies in the $30-$40 range, that will be just fine too

That might have been the line from DoW but every retailer I've talked to - during that time - wanted the individual blisters. It takes less space and of course faster turn around too. And allows people to make their own type of armies too and not have to worry about duplicates like happens for the Goblins now.
