I know that the night lords and iron warriors champions are still metal. If such a list doesn't exist, would anyone be interested in making one?

Imperial guard: Steel legion(lol), ratlings, catachan/cadian snipers, regimental advisers, harker, canadians with plasma/melta guns, straken, wyrdvane psykers, primaris psyker, commissar with power fist and pask

Do you mean currently sold as metal? Because the main issue with even trying to make a list is that many older metals were shifted into finecast (which sucks ass). You'd have to find the year of production, etc. to differentiate between them.

Why would anyone want to make such a long list? If you have a specific mini or faction in mind, we the Dakka community might be able to help you out. Your best bet online for this info is on Solegends dot com along with old GW catalogs.

Still in Guard: Vostroyan, Valhallan, Tallarn [note that these, as well as Armageddon, are discontinued], and Pask is metal I think.

Also, for about a month more, the entire Sisters of Battle line, and a significant portion of the Eldar line.

Guardsmen, hear me! Cadia may lie in ruin, but her proud people do not! For each brother and sister who gave their lives to Him as martyrs, we will reap a vengeance fiftyfold! Cadia may be no more, but will never be forgotten; our foes shall tremble in fear at the name, for their doom shall come from the barrels of Cadian guns, fired by Cadian hands! Forward, for vengeance and retribution, in His name and the names of our fallen comrades!

Almost none of the Eldar line is metal, it's almost entirely finecast (copied over from metals). Maybe a handful of character minis like Warlocks if they haven't made the transition.

The reason you see all metal Eldar armies is because those minis are solid and good...not garbage, so people scour eBay to avoid finecast at all costs.

If you look at their descriptions on the GW site it tells you - Colonel 'Iron Hand' Straken is a "two-part, metal" model, whereas "Severina Raine is a single miniature cast in high-quality Citadel resin".

This, and if you are looking for metal models go on Ebay, I made a Grey Knights army almost 100% metal miniatures from Ebay and they were pretty cheap.
