They go on wide release via Forgeworld, anyone can get them, but not many people do because they're super expensive (to the point where people were cutting up the inserts made for the Gorgon transport to try and get more minis). They're a novelty regiment, not really that popular.
Then they get removed from sale, people are annoyed, but it's not a huge deal
Then after several years the Kill Team comes out and people absolutely lose their minds, people who barely paid any attention to the Death Korps before are swearing blind that they will buy a whole regiment's worth of kill teams to fuel their newly discovered loooove of them, no doubt fuelled by a thousand youtube channels spouting shovel memes
But... this isn't what happened with the Krieg. The Elysians were removed from sale by FW, but the Krieg were literally available until about a month after the plastic Kill Team unit shipped. There was a few months without Death Riders, but it was pretty obvious they were coming in plastic at that point so nobody stressed out about it.
I may be wrong, but Krieggers were still around and were popular. Elysians were dropped because they weren't even though there was good demand for them in the months before when they. Were. Currently. Out. Of. Stock

One of the classic Mike McVey dioramas - if viewed from above, I seem to recall it formed a yin-yang symbol.

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...

40k has been tapping way top much into the nostalgia aspect in the last 15-20 years or so, and hasnt release one new race since the tau/kroot (unless mistaken). Instead of expdite, id much prefer if they released a new race
