Warhammer 40,000 and Forge World: Legends and Last Chance to Buy - there's a few 30k things hiding in there...

Could be a new Chaos flyer kit/kits on the way in plastic with the new codex if they are retiring both FW kits.
The Greater Daemons make sense as the newer plastic ones are big enough compared to the old metal ones that were available when they FW ones were first made.
Hoping Zhufor means new WE terminators coming in plastic at some point.

IMHO they're removing all the old-scale Terminators that are not Heresy models - Tyberos, the TDA inqusitor, Gabriel Angelos in TDA etc.

I see nothing 30k?

shame for the hellblade and talon
but then again 40k GW and chaos go ever less torwards that decent chaos look and more for daemonic possessed mutated

Boxnought, Indomitus Terminators, Relic Contemptor, Cassian Dracos, Daemons...

Bit disappointing for it to be like a week late and most of the stuff already gone.

Ok, I missed the Salamander dread, but the rest...

oof

It's the Internet. Nothing's ever truly gone.

'Somehow, (checks notes) Aetaos'rau'keres returned' indeed... i guess there will be a lively secondary market for those, as they're quite iconic, including recasts...

well, I just checked the plastic AOS alternative and while the FW model did look iconic, the Kairos Fateweaver build of the Lord of Change plastic kit aint too shabby either

I'm miffed about Cassian Dracos going away. Should've pulled the trigger when I made my last order

Tyberos is gawn?
Damn, he had the best looking lightning claws FW/GW have ever done.

I'll pour one out for him and Valthex.

He'll probably be back, and be even more f***koff huge.

When would GW ever bring Tyberos back? I love the Space Sharks and would love to see him done in plastic, but there's more popular chapters that don't have characters in plastic, why would Tyberos get a release and when?

Black Library tie-in. It wouldn't take much to turn Robbie MacNiven's duo into a trilogy for example.

Tie-in with the next novel? Or a Black Library Celebration model like Captain Messinius.

Legiones Astartes: Inductii – Rules for fielding Inductii, the hastily-created Astartes used as reinforcements in the latter days of the Horus Heresy, with specific rules for each Legion.

Neat (from the Cthonia book). I don't recall seeing this mentioned before. Some previews would have been nice.

The new Vindicator is up for pre-order. It looks nice and chonky in the demios pattern. Still, I do miss the massive dozer blade.

The preview from Warhammerfest talked about inductii.

As others have said, as a Black Library tie-in, or celebratory miniature. You could also add him as a supplementary character to Codex:SM (with a Detachment for Fleet-based raiding forces like Space Sharks, Ashen Claws, Soul Drinkers etc.) or even Deathwatch without too much hassle, or if they ever come around to doing something Badab-themed again. Otherwise, he could also come back as a resin upgrade pack for plastic Assault termies. The 'last chance to buy' article said nothing negative about upgrade packs.

Forge world finally moving completely away from making interesting figures for less mainstream characters into a pure heresy company. Sad.

Heresy and TOW, eventually. If their tone-deaf pricing continues on that, the latter will probably be the final nail in the coffin.

I have some spare sprues of the Mk6. I've been waiting for the bolt pistol / chainsword arms, just to make a unit of 10.
BUT, £20 for 5. They're now clearly taking the p155.

Not bothering. I think I'll stick using the HH stuff I have for small games of Xenos Rampant.

They're still making a fair number of Necromunda and Blood Bowl releases, with no sign of stopping that side of things any time soon.

Forgeworld WHFB tanked before, while the system still got main-GW plastic support and regular marketing and releases. I don't want to doomsay or anything, but ultimately paying multiple hundreds of dollars for a single regiment in FW resin is not happening for the great majority of people, and especially not for a game that looks more like being DoA/stillborn with every lukewarm preview they're doing for it. If they really are investing a sizeable portion of their development and machine time in TOW that has a real chance at 'killing' FW so far as they cancel the whole thing and just focus on Heresy and Bloodbowl in the future, as these things sell reliably and predictably. I hope i'm wrong, but they really seem to go full-speed ahead at the Iceberg with that project.

Tow will get old plastic/metal/finecast and new models in both resin and plastic

TOW will work like lotr with a huge (old) plastic range to choose from, supported by MTOs and range rotation of some older metals and then continued by FW resin and the occasional plastic releases that support new books. At least I think that's how they will do this. 3 large fantasy ranges and universes from the same company are hard to handle, even for GW.

Don't forget that there seems to be something happening with LotR, what with the new films announced by New Line cinema and GW's cryptic mumblings about not being able to tell anything about the future of the game for now at Warhammerfest. There have been movements in license holdership in the recent past, who knows what all of this amounts to.

Well, this sucks. US preorders of the Deimos Vindicator are limited to 1.

Not to be terribly unreasonable, but with two variants, I wanted 2. There is such a thing as being too conservative about order protection. No idea if they'll sell out or when they'll be back if they do.
