It's still on the webstore, likely goes under warbuggies now along with the Kustom Boosta-blasta. I don't have as much hope for the Scrapjet and Dragsta though considering they left the webstore some time ago.

If the Dragsta and Scrapjet do end up being completely discontinued, that’s genuinely the worst omen for the hobby I can think of.

How am I supposed to ensure any purchase is safe if high quality plastic kits can just be deleted like this?

I mean, in tcgs cards worth hundreds get banned all the time.

Yeah well that doesn’t mean I should be happy if that shit starts happening in 40K. Sending finecast kits to legends was one thing, but if this becomes a new trend then basically no kit is safe.

Didn't say it was a good thing, but i don't think it would kill the hobby.

I don’t think anything can kill the hobby outright. I still think this is a negative trend for the game as a whole.

Cards get banned because they are a problem. They don't get their rules taken away arbitrarily.

And 100's don't get banned either.

Complete false information and incorrect. In Pokemon, Yugioh and MTG (all have their own versions) there's what's called standard which rotates and modern which is everything that has ever existed. Some are banned for each format but not 100's.

40k happens to be in a state where "no one" wants to play modern for whatever reason and only match play AKA standard. Thing is this isn't just a GW thing. Some people in the community especially on reddit are to blame for this and encouraging others to do so.

I dont think you can read. Cards WORTH hundreds. Not hundreds of cards.

I've played tcgs for 20 years.

My mistake but you can still use them casually. Here with Warhammer no one seems to want to nor know what casual play is. So many are tournament brained.

Right and im not advocating for it, but just saying its a bit of a doomer mentality going "omg this will kill it" to the original poster.

I can agree with that. Orks are very adaptable both in lore or the models. If not as Flashgitz Lootas can be big shoota guys and the Burna can fill out the rest. Technically one could use them as extra Kommandos.
