I'm making an assumption that they're going to go via GW simply because they don't mention you'll be responsible for taxes etc which they'll need to do if the marines are going to be shipped to individuals direct from Bandai's factory

now I might be wrong and we'll see the warning when the pre-order comes up but i'd be surprised

If nothing else, I'd expect the free shipping to a GW store for pick-up to be an option.

Can't recall seeing this mentioned anywhere else in the N&R section, so it probably belongs here now that the thread is revived. Taken from Facebook, shared August 28 by the Warhammer TV page

You may have painted them in miniature scale, you’ve seen them fighting the enemies of the Emperor in countless tabletop games, and you’ve seen them come to life in video games. Now for the first time you’ll have the opportunity to see the Astra Militarum produced as lifelike 1/6th scale collectable action figures.
Over the past year we have worked relentlessly with the Warhammer creative team to bring you the first in our new line up of Warhammer 40,000 licensed figures. Our first figure is an iconic Cadian Officer which has been meticulously rescaled to a height of 30 cms to provide you a faithful representation of the famous fighting force - with the finest of details taken into account.

No actual images of the figures just yet, only a link to their site (https://www.greenwolfstudios.com/) for a newsletter

The £500 figures all seem to belong to a specific artist line, whereas the regular military and original sci-fi troopers all sit between £165 - £200.

I'm very much an outsider to this market, but that doesn't seem unreasonable. Hopefully the terms of the deal with GW don't inflate it too much, it'd be nice to see this do well enough to warrant expansion into different regiments.
