As the thread title says. NO RESIN OR METAL!

For me, I want the Plasma Obliterators to see production again. They rereleased the Void Shield Generators (which were originally resin), so I could totally see them doing this. They interact with two existing models (Haemotrope Reactors and the Aquila Strongpoint), but sadly they don't have rules in the new Planetary Onslaught book (though neither do the Haemotrope Reactors).

What plastic kit would you have GW bring back? Existing kits only! Not new kits. Not new sculpts. Existing molds that are no longer available.

Not so much a re-release but if they made plastic Death Korp of Kreig that is me broke!

Please note, for those of you who play Chaos Daemons as a faction the term "Daemon" is potentially offensive. Instead, please play codex "Chaos: Mortally Challenged". Thank you.

A fantasy kit to be honest.

The Chaos Forsaken. I don't even know why they were discontinued. The range of mutations in that kit was by far superior to the gak Possessed we have now in 40k.

They may be low detail, oddly posed, and have limited options, but they have more retro awesomeness then anything.

I’m currently stripping some of my old guys to form some 30k legion tactical squads. If I can get enough MLs together, some legion heavies will be added to the mix as well.

These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

Sigh...two respondants can actually follow directions.

I updated the OP to make this more clear.

Re-do Imperial Guard Cadian.
That is a terribly old plastic kit.
There was the second edition mono-pose plague marines and Berzerkers I would like seeing them that style but modernized and a few more parts.

Wow, the lack of reading comprehension in this thread is impressive.

TBH the plastic kits that are gone were mostly not very good. I do prefer the old chimera although the difference is small.

If you extended that to resin kits then it gets a bit more interesting. I really miss the old manticore and I'd buy a ton of the Forgeworld trench system.

Bretonnia men at arms. This is the one kit I wish I stocked up on they are perfect for 40k conversions.

Much of the Tomb Kings line. Lots of options for Thousand Sons conversion there. Especially for things like the dinobots and rooster.

Pretty much. One of my big regrets is not buying some when it started to become obvious the direction fantasy was going. The entire line was so new I didn't want to believe that they'd be dropped though.

For nostalgia, I'd like them to RE release the original rhino model. It was a pretty easy kit, and it would be awesome to have it like a relic for veteran squads or just an old, reliable transport, that isn't obsolete, just an old version.

Also, I'd like them to RE release the old style marine close combat sprue. Lots of options, and it's git that cool old school look.

On the CC sprue note: I’d like to see them re-do the Eldar weapon ones as well. Would make it a lot easier to kitbash up an autarch.

Any of the mass of ancient kits still lying about. Make a Falcon chassis where the top and bottom aren't so badly warped you can't get them to fit properly. Pack the Rhino kit more densely and you could probably get Rhino, Razorback, Predator, and Whirlwind into one kit. Make Guardians/Dire Avengers that aren't twice as thick as the rest of the Eldar range. There are probably more, but those are the ones I've been most annoyed building.

Balanced Game: Noun. A game in which all options and choices are worth using.

Would the brettonian archers count? They aren't 40k.

I don't think that they're available anyymore, but i loved all the extra little bits that came with that kit. There was even a little dog, if i'm remembering right.

realism is a lie

I also really like that Rhino kit, they're much easier to transport too

The Empire Militia kit too, one of the few discontinues that made me genuinely sad.

I'd really like the 3rd ed. era CSM possessed sprue back, or failing that some of the early Chaos Marines themselves --

Those are space crusade models, not really early chaos space marines (the space crusade stuff was mostly quite different to regular models).

Those are really good helmets though.
