I'm posting here because I'm tired of getting yelled at for posting questions in the News and Rumors (or Kickstarter Forum).

I was curious about the rumors of whether or not these models are going to be discontinued or what because of upcoming 2013 Ork Codex. These models are only available by the GW website. Does it mean that they are going to be discontinued or changed?

Please don't yell at me for posting here... I don't know where else to go....

In all honesty I would probbly say you're going to get new Mega Noz, at least I hope

If there's a 2013 Ork Codex, I mean, we have:

Tau, Eldar, Daemons of Chaos, at the least, who are rumored to come out in 2013, not to mention other things rumored in 2013:

Lizardmen, High Elves for Fantasy,
Codex: Space Marines, Sisters of Battle, Black Templar (though I have a feeling they are going to be rolled back into Codex: Space Marines >.&gt

And we don't have enough details about the Ork Codex to determine what models are going to be removed. They tend to keep a lot of popular models in production (atleast by mail order) so that people can get a cool looking model (and they can continue to make money off what they have).

I mean, heck, they redid the Tau Stealthsuits from last edition in Finecast, I can see them keeping things they've already shifted over to Finecast.

I mean, 5 codices/army books if you include Lizards and Elves for Fantasy, and that's a pretty darn busy year for G-Dubs. I guess 6, technically, since they do 2 books for Chaos Demons.

GW has promised to not make someones models useless ever again (they bit the bullet when they did that with squats). If anything, units will be changed or nerfed into oblivion, but they should stay around in some form.

Games Workshop is proably going to make them into plastic boxes instead of resin. I also wouldn't be surprised if Meganobz come in a pack of 3 like the obliterators for chaos or the centurians for the space marines. Still it will all depend on what Games Workshop decides to do. Still if they nerf my favorite units. Angry letters will be sent.

Please don't revive threads that are dormant for more than one month - it's called "thread necromancy," and it's undesirable.
