The total wargamer page has a load of stock pics as well, so I'm guessing this is something universal?
Anyone know why? It can't be a terribly effective way of convincing people to buy stuff (or certainly not if you're not already aware of what you want to buy)

I dare say they get a list of pre-orders for stocking/pricing (and a date at which they can advertise from) but no images to use until the relevant kits are announced ie until
WD or whatever.
I thought the main reason was that
GW pulled a "you can't use our photos for your promotion" legal move which means all the independent stores have to wait and take their own product photos or pool them from a different source and not use the
GW product photos direct.
