Does this include 'stuff listed in a regular codex, but that is only available from forgeworld'?
If so, then add Tyranid Skyslashers to the list.

You paint the runes on the armour golden or something. These aren't missing, they're just very subtle. I'm not sure what you were hoping for.

The stone is in his pocket or something. Those things don't have special models for very good reasons. What would it be, a small piece of round plastic?
Paint your character's helm golden. The helm doesn't need a whole headswap just for that.

Special weapons are absent from the kit for some reason. Hope you like plasma because that's all you get.

There's runic armour on certain special characters, look up the old Iron Priest or Rune Priest in Runic Armour. Problem is you can get Runic Armour as an upgrade for more than just those two characters with more than just their two weapons but since they're 'fail cast' kit bashing is not something you take to lightly.

The Space Wolves aren't vanilla marines, you have to put a bit more effort in than a colour swap. I've been using a Raptor/Warp Talon 'Dragon' helmet as the Helm of Durfast but I'd still like something that's a bit more Norse in design. You're kidding right? "The stone is in his pocket or something" this thing is taken by characters at the very least and sends Space Mutts in a bubble effect bonkers it's gotta be on display, like a rock in a wolf claw or jaw on a banner pole.

It's okay the end times will come and much like with aos anything that doesn't have a model will disappear and any char in failcast will die a stupid death.

That's assuming you get the honour of being written about.

Half the things you list there are relics, in case you aren't aware no armies have models to represent relics, not just sw. This has always been the case and always will be for good reason as it prevents the need for modelling it on, thus allowing you to field it with and without the relic, without proxying models that have the relic as models that don't have the relic. This helps prevent confusion in games as imagine how embarrassing it would be to forget your model didn't have the relic and accidentally use its effects because you saw it modelled on.

If stuff that exists but isn't part of the kit counts, I'll add flamers and meltas for the space wolf pack to the list.
If stuff from whfb counts as well then, most mounts and weapon options for lords and heroes should be added as well, hell even a lot of characters didn't exist as well (this list will be pretty huge)

Nah, you actually don't. That's just your personal preference. No one will know that your rock-on-a-sling you've modded on is the wulfen stone anyway, so it can hardly be considered WYSIWYG required. Skitarii has a bunch of relics too that don't have special models. Everyone does. You either ignore them, or if you really really want, just colour swap. If you wanna mod, fine. But these things are only really shown off on special characters that can't remove them, and even then it's not necessarily a standard design that they all share.

I mean...do we ignore ForgeWorld?

Skyslashers have been there for a good while.

Why have they had such a splurge of new units without ever bothering to make sure these old listing were provided? Come to think of it, last I checked they ran out of stock of rippers and I don't think they said they would restock.

What's more hilarious is that they used the base carnifex with options to make an Old One Eye model rather than his actual model in the new codex.

"There is a cancer eating at the Imperium. With each decade it advances deeper, leaving drained, dead worlds in its wake. This horror, this abomination, has thought and purpose that functions on an unimaginable, galactic scale and all we can do is try to stop the swarms of bioengineered monsters it unleashes upon us by instinct. We have given the horror a name to salve our fears; we call it the Tyranid race, but if is aware of us at all it must know us only as Prey."

If it is currently only available in forgeworld but is listed in the armies codex then include it on this list.

"The space marine officer was waving and yelling to his men on the wall unaware he was leading the Squiggoth on. Stompy (the squiggoth) headbutted its way through the wall and gave chase to the terrified commander as he ran up seven tiers of the fortress, trying to close gates behind him and ordering men to cover his fight.
