>A comparison is only valid between similar things though
The "similar thing" that gets compared is hobby time. What do i pay for my hobby, and how much quality time do i get in return. People like different things, but time is the same for all of them. You can tell 50 people that pic related can be made for maybe 5€ with a printer and the most expensive part was probably the bases. But if they dont care about Warmaster or other 10mm games, then they dont care and the comparison with my printed army is pointless. Some 40k players might rather go fishing than to paint or play Warmaster.
If those people want to play Space Marines, they dont want 10mm Beastmen. Simple as that.
>And in that comparison, it becomes clear that GW is overpriced.
And yet, they pay it, because they get their monetary investment back in what they perceive as quality hobby time.
You could show them some printed Space Marines instead, and that would be a far better argument.
