I just felt like hell froze over..
The last time I saw a warhammer related thing on TV was Dawn Of War adverts sponsoring Star Trek a decade ago....

Even when they had their mainstream games like Space Marine, even new editions etc, I never saw adverts on TV and I watched TV constantly back then, rarely now, and hardly if ever with adverts.
I was just really surprised to see GW shell out money for TV adverts on a premier TV channel, I thought they didn't do stuff like that.
Gw are not shelling out money. Hachette, the collections publisher, are paying for this marketing.
Must say I was pretty stunned when I saw this it doesn't really sit comfortably to be honest. Warhammer and tv ads just don't rub well in my mojo. But maybe I'm being a dinosaur.

It feels kind of scant too.
Start of with the First Heretic then immediately Juno to Xenos from Eisenhorn book 1
Then in guessing it'll be like 9 months of random stories and new trilogies starting before they get to book 2.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

Just pick up issue 1 of the 40k Legends series for £1.99 as I don't have First Heretic.
Nice quality books and the poster with it is nice. Not sure I want the series but the subscription extras look nice: =I= tankard being the pick of the lot.
There a nice extra gift with issue 2 as well - an Aquilla Notebook.
Not sure I want an 80 book collection at £9.99 a book!?!

Yeah, £791.20 for 80 books, and I bet I've got all of them already. I know I've already got the first five.

That's one thing I've always wondered about those various "collect all the things" companies.
How often do they finish and deliver the whole thing?

Mmmm that's a point. I doubt they have any obligation to finish and this series seems to have had one hiccup already. I have too many of these books to buy into this anyway. I always fancied the judge dredd mega collection although I think it's already been produced and is now running reprints.

I had the Marvel hardback co!lection and that one came to a natural end.
They then relaunched it from the beginning for a new set of collectors.

Newsagents usually carry the first few weeks or months of such a collection then you can get them from the publisher - IIRC you can subscribe direct with Hachette or Amazon - they have been pretty good for me when it come to continuing with other collections.

I'll send you a PM(sent one to Alpharius already).

BobtheInquisitor : C'mon she is only a bit closer than Custode on the left and even then she should be smaller than now. Custodes are even bigger than Astartes. Same thing was on Prospero Burns cover art.
