I’m hoping a MTO for the god specific Chaos Champions.

Even to this day, I think they still stand up as excellent sculpts.

I always said GW should have scrapped one of 3 different wizard wagons to make one war wagon. A model that people will buy 2 or 3 of is more useful than a magic laser cannon or whatever.

But they never listen to me.

I was wondering why it would not have been made part of the regular range, but if they can run it on a MTO and make that sort of money on it then that explains its.

I've been buying releases in bulk up until the new chaos marauder release. As they start to replace older kits with new ones, I don't see the need to keep up with purchases any more.

So I'm glad they are keeping up with more MTOs, I buy a fair bit of 2nd hand older kits but I like the ease of being able to pick up whole units or rarer commands in one go from the MTOs.

I'm hoping that the popularity of the war wagon would encourage them to bring the landship to MTO sooner!

Interesting... They added this old Lord to the MTO without any fanfare:



I would have missed him if I wasn't scrolling through the pics om Sunday's Warcom post.

Ha, I didn't think I'd see that one again.

I miss the really old chaos warhounds that had different tails and double heads. I was hoping they'd come back, rather than the more recent metals that inspired the plastic kit

I'd be very surprised if the Landship ever returns. The rear wheels must have been a nightmare to remove from the molds

Seconded! I recently was gifted 5 or 6 Khorne champions of that era and I'd like to make a 10-man regiment of Chosen with them.
I even found some old shields on eBay for a realistic price for them.

I wouldn't really take the War Wagon as an indicator of success for TOW (though I'm not saying TOW isn't successful). A lot of people in the Middlehammer groups with no other desire to touch TOW jumped on the chance to grab one because it was still cheaper than eBay prices.

Any dive into 4th/5th era models is probably going to have inflated numbers vs other MTOs.

Okay now that mounted lord is something I'd be interested in getting. I already have the Sorcerer version mounted.

Yeah I’m getting the mounted lord too. I love the shield.
