Judging by previous discounted Tyranid boxes, I'm expecting 2 sprues of Genestealers and 10 Broodlords

Is it even a Tyranid bundle without genestealers? I don’t really want them and have like 30. And I’ve not been collecting them for that long.

It's like getting an astra militarum box without that commissar. Or ad mech without the magos. Or GSC and that banner dude who people sell for next to nothing on ebay (or even just give it away as a freebie)

The sad part is that the Iconward can easily accept arms from the Acolyte kit, giving you a free Acolyte.

My guess for the boxes is the following:
Blood Bowl Full plastic stadium with cheerleaders and two teams. Probably goblin team and undead team.
Aeronatica Imperialis box with 20 new aircraft from Necrons and GSC.
AoS Jaws of Mork Box with 30 squigs, boss on cave squig, and a new squig catapult.

I'm curious and torn. I look at my Thousand Sons/Death Guard and think 'I really don't need anything.' I look at my CSM and my Eldar and think 'don't buy anything until the new codex drops.'

Hmm not sure, 6pm is a good time for big reveals that GW often uses, but its rarer for them to use that mid-week when its not a major event or such. Unless they are going to string out the reveal with video, I suspect it will drop sometime in the afternoon like a normal news post.

It's more curiousity at this point. Probably can't afford any of them, probably not going to be anything that catches me (unless they pull a Surprise Seraphon or a Deathrattle heavy SBG box).
So may sit on funds for Battletomes and maybe that Zoat Star Player for Blood Bowl...
You know, since they took all the Lizardmen star players away eradicating my desire to hunt down stuff to convert for them...

I wonder how much the Vanguard: Maggotkin of Nurgle box will be - it's the current Start Collecting! Maggotkin of Nurgle (£60) box with the Lord of Blights (£17.50) swapped for a Spoilpox Scrivener (£20) and Plaguebearers (£22.50) added...

As someone who doesn't play any of these armies yet, they all look great to me. And all are pretty new factions. Let's just hope stocks last and the price isn't jacked up.

Hah. Well, guess that's my wallet saved then. SBG one is just...all Zombies really with a splash of other stuff.
OBR one looks like it'd pair REALLY nicely with the cavalry box from earlier this year to give a fairly solid, rounded out force.

I like the inclusion of that new vampire dragon. Shame there's no centrepiece for the Slaanesh box. Pass from me on all of these, bring on the 40K (hopefully more than four!).

Was a little worried they would have a vampire one, but I’m safe to pass. I try to run rot-free, so don’t want the zombies, and not a fan of the centerpiece model.
Those are all personal preference things. Otherwise it looks like a fun box that would make a good army core.

Vanari one is nice and my Lumineth box is still just sitting in the closet. Wish it had some of the other models though rather than a repeat of the spearmen and cavalry.
