It claims it’s officially licensed but looks like a knock off. They have a load of different versions of the 40K advent calendar with different images, some of which are from AoS or are from the Marvel comics so wouldn’t be used.
They have loads of other brands / band calendars which apparently have funko pops, lego, etc in them along with other random models however Funko and Lego both have their own calendar range and wouldn’t allow the models to used by anyone else.
Every copy of the Queen calandras comes a free gift which is the album News of the World signed by all the original band members, they have sold 250 of the calendars with the signed album gift so far. That’s quite a haul of signed CDs from 30 years ago that this random company have found.

This has popped up on Facebook for me, and the English is not fluid as if they were not native english speakers.. so I really doubt this is legit.. and I dont want to drop funds on something like this without knowing
Plus, just now, looking at the image, that is a "forward facing" Rulebook picture slapped onto a "angled box"

bringing 40k Events to Origins Game Fair in Columbus, Oh. Ask me for more info!
Their address on the Website is 221b Baker Street in London. Which is where Sherlock Holmes lives. And the telephone number is 123.456.789. Yeah, sounds legit to me!
Doesn't need to be fake. If you scroll down a bit, the description actually states the following: "Behind each door is a Warhammer 40K ornament with the theme of Warhammer 40K, including miniature souvenirs and more!" They nowhere claim to include the figures as shown. Incredibly bad advertising ethics, but you'll likely get some form of advent calendar.

i mean the picture of the calendar in question and their adress are also blatantly fake.

I'm not arguing you will receive what they're showing. I'm just saying that purchasing something here might actually get you some box with 40k "ornaments and souveniers" whatever that may be. The whole website is totally misleading, but you might still get what you effectively ordered.

With their entire website being full of lies and blatantly fake information i have extreme doubts you will recieve anything at all if you order from them.

- site claims it's "officially licensed"
- clearly false address and phone number
- unclear and misleading pictures: items that clearly aren't what you'll get because they clearly aren't going give you 3 £25 Mcfarlane action figures, some can't be obtained anymore (the Chibis), can't fit in the box (action figures) or aren't even warhammer related (Titanfall?) or
- multiple different versions that use outdated artwork
- claims of giving you the limited edition Lieutenant Amulius figure with it, or another listing claims you'll be given an Imperial Knight
- wildly fluctuation numbers of views, stock and sales. 0 people have them in cart, but the stock numbers are still going down every few seconds.
- Mention of a "more info" tab that tells you what you'll get, yet I can't find it

Definitely fake or scam - there's D&D, Masters of the Universe and other ones out there as well, that's clearly not licensed. Touch with some one else's barge pole only!!
