I'm going to guess a long weekend each fortnight.
There are 20+ factions, so that allows GW to focus on each one in turn over the course of the year. And having an off weekend allows GW to launch their shiny new product all to itself.

I just emailed Games Workshop for the Juan Diaz daemonettes. If you want to see them, I'd recommend you do the same. Let them know we want them!

Who did you email? Is there a suggestion box for make to order or did you just send a general one?

Just write a letter using words you cut out of magazines, and mail it to their main office!

I would love to get my hands on some of the old Blood Bowl teams, I never managed to get all the ones I wanted.
I guess with the new scale and all, chances are that will not be happening.

Seeing some old specialist games would be wonderful, but I expect them to stick to 40k/Fantasy stuff for this.

It would be great synergy with the (sssh secret) Blood Bowl relaunch next.month, but if GW wanted synergy they'd have done the old Gene stealer Cults...

Retro GSC might have been seen as competing with their new product sales. But if they do old sculpts of star players, or teams they haven’t gotten re-tooled and ready to go yet, I think that might be a very good call on their part. They won’t be taking any sales away from new stuff, generate a lot of goodwiil, and tap into the nostalgia.
And if they get a new version of the old minis out in a few months, odds are they are going to be better looking and more detailed then the old ones, so can probably get the same people to buy it again. Win/win.

Look at some of the prices on ebay for old Necromunda, GorkaMorka, Mordheim and Blood Bowl stuff.
Single models can go around 70£ there.

Nah, I just sent a general email to their customer service politely asking for the Diaz sculpts, and also followed that up with a request to know if it's even on the table anymore. I elaborated by asking why they couldn't do it if in fact they couldn't, but the guys at customer service only seem to have the ability to forward it to the studio, which is good enough.

Last weekend, we brought back some classic Warhammer 40,000 Astra Militarum kits, and made them available for a limited time as part of our Made to Order service. We know there are loads of great no-longer-available Citadel Miniatures that you collectors would love to get your hands on.
Well, now's your chance – we'd like to know what you'd want to see for two of the next Made to Order ranges.
So, what classic Space Marines and Chaos miniatures would you like to see return from the archive? Is there a favorite model in the range you wish you could get your hands on?
Let us know in the comments below, and we'll see what we can do.

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.

Now it's requests from the OOP SM/ CSM ranges? Does it include Chaos Daemons?
If so, I could use a bunch of metal squidly Horrors of Tzeentch:

Those Pink Horrors definitely show a more horrific take on the creatures.
The modern ones are good. But I think these are better.

IMO, the shift from 3rd edition metals to 5th edition plastics in the Daemon range is one of the few consistent steps back GW took. The horrors were amazing, as were the Daemonettes. Personally, I think the bulkier Bloodletters were better than the current (admittedly retro ones).

Chaos ranges....
You hear that, CHAOS SQUATS are coming back!!
But the chaos land raider tracks would be cool.
Can't bring myself to get a landraider with aquila tracks.

Metal Librarians WITH helmets for sure. I think there are two with Force Axes and one with a Force Sword.
I also want this guy since I never got him. He would make a great Sternguard.

Definitely so! The plastic Horrors and Daemonettes are just ugly.

I would like a bunch of RT Marine figures, but I cannot imagine we're going back that far. I've got enough metal DC to choke a horse, but I could splurge for some more metal Terminators.
