Tech marine / MOTF on bike and a conversion beamer.

1. Ability to make bike kits so you can put a HQ body on a bike chassis.

2. Farseer/warlocks on jet bikes

3. Rough riders that don't dress up as mongols

4. Nearly half the bloody tyranid codex!

Plastic Mordheim buildings.

I'd like to see a new race released every year.

Nah, I'd rather they just keep up with what they have for now.

Argh, that would be terrible. There are so few elements of warfare that are not already covered there is not relaly space to release any more races without overlapping massively with established races. Not to mention the problems there would be with rules never being updated, lack of play testing so they could rush to invent a new race, etc.

By all means, release adaptations for "counts as" stuff (such as ad-mech, or witch hunters "counts as" guard army), but not entirely new armies each year.

Agreed, although i would probably shuffle/re-align certain codices:

Chaos would split into 3 books, Daemons, Legions, LatD/Renegades. Though, tbh a single army list should be able to comprise of 0-2 (or whatever is appropriate) units from X or Y codex, depending on your HQ choice in Z codex.
DA, and BA would be sucked into vanilla marines, as their organization is too close to "Codex approved", also would bring back some Death Watch rules (which, IMO could/would work like the chaos version, so that you could be running a "death watch" army, with a squad of space wolves or BT
Inquisition would be combined... so no separate daemonhunters and witch hunters.. just the big I
IG would stay the same
Eldar/DE/Harlequins would stay the same, but with some twists to fully bring back harlequin armies
nids, tau, and orks would stay unchanged, since they dont take allies, with the exception of tau, who may get the Kroot expanded upon.

The more i think on the Eldar idea, the more i like it, but here is generally what i would do: i would somewhat lower the cost of the guardian or "basic" box, and keep the upgrade boxes "reasonable" for what they are. I would also update most of the Metal models, maybe not necessarily with plastic, but just a newer model... for example, Ragnar or Col. Gaunt, and most of the Daemons HQ models are all "old" and should be redone to a more proper glory.

I'm not going to go into another codex conversation

There are plenty of threads on them already.

in an on topic note... how big would a Tyrranofex model be?

Another, small idea.. plastic PA weapon sprues for various armies.. For instance, Lightning claws for space marines.

But, my main list of models that need to be done/redone, is already posted before

Rough riders, then again their rules aren't brilliant. Just loads of those black templars style upgrade sprues for guard mordians, valhallans and steel legion for cadians. A new catachan boxset, all they would need to do is redo the arms in a style similar to the command/HW sets. A 'bio titan' boxset that makes either a Ty-Fex or Tervi a la Try/maw boxset.

Plastic Everything?

That would be cool.

Also, a wishlisting system. We send in our ideas. GW collect our ideas and make one new mini a month, completly random and having nothing to do with the current release.

It would definately sell, otherwise people wouldn't have chosen for it to be made.

Also, I know it would never happen, I'm just "Ultrawishlisting".

A giant Space Marine thats like 200ft tall and has a bolter that shoots out 20 man tactical squads XP

Re-tooled Khorne Bezerkers (i.e. on par with FW) and a plastic Dreadclaw drop-pod kit

Plastic Catachan Rough riders.

Thinking of conversion with cold one and make riders look a little wild west.

Chaos Heralds would be cool.

a Chaos Herald Kit.

Mount kit for the Heralds seperatly

so they don;t lose TOOO much money

Plastic Mark 3 armored Space Marines.

Basically, I want these in plastic so it doesn't cost $30 for 5 dudes.

Edit: I really like this armor, though. So tempting to make a pre-heresy army.

a grey knight grandmaster plastic kit, like the space marine commander, would be nice

more necrons (and a new codex, but that's a different thread) would be nice, along with GK/inq/SoB plastics.

You should be able to make one from the plastic Grey Knight Terminators we're expecting early next year. Unless they're changing the layout of the squad, you have to include a Grey Knight hero as part of the squad. This means GW will have to include parts to turn one of the Terminators into a hero, which you could use for your Grand Master.

I mean the DA, BA, BT and SW all got one, what about the posterboys???

I like this idea a lot although I already make use of metal shoulder pads for my smufs.

Would love to see:
plastic obliterators - I hate the metal models with a passion
Plastic Warhound Titan
Plastic sternguard/vanguard upgrade kit
Thunder Wolf Cavalry
IG Veterans upgrade kit
Plastic Eldar aspect warriors maybe a howling banshee/striking skorpion box, a fire dragons/dire avengers kit, warp spiders/swooping hawks kit.

If you were going to release them in pairs, I'd suggest Howling Banshees/Swooping Hawks (lightly armoured in sprinting poses), Fire Dragons/Striking Scorpions (heavily armoured in advancing poses), Dark Reapers/Warp Spiders (heavily armoured in standing poses).

Cultists ( The ones with the pointy hoods)

Lol you mean these KKK members:

Plastic imperial guard Stormtroopers
Plastic Wraithguard

...and an up to date Codex: Eye of Terror, so i can play Traitor guards easier :(

Yep your idea is better that is a good idea for how I would like them released.
