I remember in college, when someone would get into MTG, we’d jokingly say coke’s cheaper.
Now, when someone I know gets into 40k, I much less jokingly say “MTG’s cheaper”
Then again, if you’re just playing for fun against friends, a $200 3d printer is cheaper than any army I’ve seen. Still costs more than a $45 booster draft, but at least the printer’s a one-time cost
I only have an FDM printer xD You can still do a lot with it, though, especially if you’re willing to get a heat gun involved. Though after printing out the character in my profile pic, I did realize there’s a lot of small detail that gets lost with FDM.
Alas, though, small animals, a cat, and poor ventilation make resin printing a bad idea for me
Honestly, I don’t find it a ton of fun. I use mine so occasionally, you kind of forget how little post processing you do on an FDM print for the most part. Though I definitely see the advantage for minis especially if you’re going to paint it afterwards.

Oh look, you just bought your way into a 3D printing hobby
I did that for unrelated reasons, I just 3d printed my way into a 40k hobby :P
I’m thanking my lucky stars I’ve newer really gotten along great with resin printing 😂
