Damn, Wight King sold out... had ordered one with my group order this evening. Snatched one off of Ebay before prices go up.

Sorely tempted but couldn't come at a worse time after the WHFB purge last weekend :( Hopefully they can stall any future Last Chance's until my wallet recovers!! Guess I'll have to try to pick up that wight at a later stage!

Sigh. Warlord weapon arm on tracks, still no warlord titan parts.
Sad to see some of the stuff go away.

Macharius Omega has now gone as well as most of the Dreadnoughts and weapons. Not much left in the 40k list...

Ordinatuses (ordinatusii?) are great, but when are they gonna make a Leviathan?

People complain about the brood horror, yet how many years ago was the chaos war mammoth dropped?

And that's had AoS rules since the scrolls started lol.

Forgeworld gets another step closer to selling only shoulderpads and (imperial) titans..

Or they are taking cues from GW to drop their WHFB-oriented stuff in favor of future AoS stuff. Remember, they just dropped a badass Khorne daemon that I for sure am getting for my Bloodbound. So, maybe more stuff will be on the way that fits their new, updated fantasy look.

Also, it would be shoulderpads, titans, and Knights. God knows they make them some Knights.

Goodbye macharius omega, one less thing on my wish list.

OMG, so much dread stuff is gone! D=

The macharius tanks going away is most surprising. I thought they were fairly popular.

A Macharius tank went away, not tanks. The others are still available.

I am sad I didn't get a chance to own an Omega tank. I always liked that design but it was released at a point when I was slowing down on 40k and couldn't justify adding another FW super heavy to my collection.

Shame, though. It is a beautiful model.

Aw, I wanted a DG dreadnought...

That one was actually the worse of the two. I actually was lucky enough to get hold of the better of the two, which was discontinued about 6 months ago.

I've put together a few of those Kill-Krushas, they were the devil himself to assemble. Nice looking kit, but one of the most flawed in terms of design.

I wonder what's prompted them to cut swathes of their lines.

Out with the old, in with the new.

They do this every now and again.

It seems that everyone appears to be assuming that we'll never be able to buy these again. Is it possible that they're only temporarily out of stock, perhaps making new moulds, or shifting priority towards other lines, and that we'll see them again in the future?

No, they've made new molds for things before and they just go out of stock for a while. None of this last chance to buy stuff. Last chance to buy is exactly as it sounds, one would presume.

Temporary?

No. If they had plans to make more they'd label them as Temporarily Out of Stock, as they've done in the past. We're assuming that this our last chance to buy because, well, they're labelled as Last Chance to Buy

I mean that's possible, in that maybe they're retooling the molds for the versions that didn't go Last Chance to Buy to include the stuff that did go...but Last Chance to Buy sounds pretty permanent.

Who knows, maybe there's plastic kits on the way!

This?

I'm disappointed that I missed out on the Raven Guard dread :(

You snooze you lose I guess.

Well there goes the LoW choice I was going to use for my renegades, wish I'd got that before all the torsos now...

Interesting that all the LCTB stuff is selling so quickly, it suggests that their stock is minimal. At a guess maybe less than 10 of each of the items that were on the LCTB pages this morning.

I'm glad I ordered some of those Tyranid rippers last month to mix in to my swarms. I also want a Skaven Broodlord with warlord on, might order that now just in case. It's really surprising how quickly a lot of this stuff has sold out, as well as how much stuff there cutting.

I don't get the benefit of GW cutting so many models from it's lines. But if all they wanted was a short term boost from panic buying to prop up the next financial statement its working, as this will be the second order I've made from them this month for that very reason. I have armies to finish damn it, and theres already enough OOP stuff I regularly search Ebay for.

Sigh. Logged on from work to buy a Grot Bomb. I didn't really want it now, but I always planned to get one.

I should've logged on from work. Assumed the BA icons wouldn't be too popular and that they'd have enough plain MKIV dreads for me to grab at least 1.

I do have an RG, a venerable MK IV and 2 plain MK IVs already, but I'd have liked the option to get more :(

The Ironclad is listed as unavailable, but I don't remember seeing it in the LCTB lost.

If I had to guess, it was a matter of storage space for the molds.

With sculptors on staff the difference between producing a mold for new models and a new mold for old models is virtually nill.
Presumably they've decided that more people will buy the new models so that's the best use of their time.
