I just went to check a little while ago, and holy hell, it looks to me that only about forty-eight items are on sale there, with much of the stuff that's still there not striking me as very big sellers. All Start Collecting boxes and core boxes are gone as well almost every named character. I mean, I completely understand everything concerning covid and is affect on supply, but I was under the impression that GW's production facilities had ramped up much more since reopening. Did I miss some big announcement about a new severe drop in production? One positive thing that I took out of this is that maybe this means that things that are out of stock at FW that people are afraid are going out of stock permanently may be coming back.

It's mostly reboxing for the new 40k symbol and boxart style along with the new form of datasheet

Uhm. I go to GW site and just on space marines I got to 50 without coming to "out of stock" sign without even factoring web order only items. How do you know what's in stock and what not?

keep in mind that whats avaliable varies from country to country, North America has a differant distribution chain from europe. although I think his count is a bit off, if he's looking at marines though yeah about 48 is where we stand

Opinions are not facts please don't confuse the two

I wonder if they're shifting to the new packaging for everything now, or to roughly coincide with new books - the AdMech and IG units in that bottom picture are still in the current packaging, for example.

This is, emphatically, why I will continue suggesting nuking Guard and starting over again. It's a legacy army that needs to be rebooted with a new focal point.

Confirmation of why no-one should listen to Kanluwen when it comes to the IG - he doesn't want the IG, he want's Kan's New Model Army...

I checked Finland and America. No big difference. With marines in US it was 4 pages each 12 plus some more before out of stock. And that's just marines. Apart from already breaking his claim I find it hard to believe marines is only thing in stock. Indeed SOB have about 1.5 page, Custodians at least page, necrons 1.5 page...

Just those factions thus it comes to around 100 items...

I think new books - they only seem to be doing Marines & Necrons right now.
