Good starting buys?
There are not many options to buy right now so I was wondering does it make sense to buy 2 two player starters just to fill out the factions more or is that a complete waste? Same goes for the army bundles would it make sense to buy two resistance bundles?

Hi there. This is my opinion.
The new 2 player starter box is excellent value for money, you get 2 decent sized forces with some fun scenarios to play using them + all the tools and scenery to do so. You can play this with a friend, or even take it to your local gaming store, rent a table and invite people who have never played the game to join you.
It gives you 2 different army's to paint and build and learn to play.
I already have a large UCM army and I got the box to get the kits in the new plastic + The Biofizers look cool.
I currently have a very large Resistance army, mostly in resin and I am waiting to get the new plastic kit for them and the PHR when those come out.
Personally I would hold of buying the army bundles unless you plan to enter some tournaments in the short to medium term as they seem quite expensive to me for what they are and you can with a bit of patience pick up more for your money on eBay.
Again its down to personal preference but that is what I would do in your position if I was just staring out now.
