Can’t find the eBay listing at present, including under sold and completed.

It's on the US version of the site.

Blooming yanks coming over here and nicking our kits. Wouldn't have happened when I was a lad.. .😉

Seriously though it does sound a little suspicious

You're just mad about all of the Russes dumped into Boston Harbour

So that's where they went. Time to go swimming in Boston then, I really want more Russes

I like mine. They look better in person than in photos, IMO. I also adjusted mine to lengthen the side guns and think it helped the overall composition of the model.

Very nice. One gallery vote for you! I like 'em as well, though they need a bit of re-posing to make them look a lot less static. Certainly fit the "Destroyer" type Titan...

Here's mine, both reposed but the one on the right I've cut up to make it look like it's walking

Nice!

And yeah, some cutting and sawing to reposition the feet and legs is definitely worth it.

why they are not more posable is a mystery, they have made other such highly posable (e.g. the Reaver titans), and if going for a single frame per titan makes more sense

Dont get me wrong, these examples are nicely modelled and painted, but I just dont like the silhouette no matter how well you paint em

But that's cool, plenty of choices for everyone

The biggest problem for me is having basically the same heads as warhounds, would have loved if at least there was a b option for heads that looked more unique like some of the eagle head conversions.

cant imagine it would be hard to find 3d printables or 3rd party accessories if thats what youre after?

Or, you know, full 3d conversion kits or full kits for that matter...

I... would not recommend that.

I'm noticing several LGS's have received stock of the Civitas Imperialis (including some discounter shops) all of a sudden. So some items are moving. However, the constant lack of availability for any Astartes kits is concerning

It is very concerning, lots of money for the business to make if they'd had the stock level required.
Unfortunately there's the risk of people losing interest or in more cases using printed kits which could mean stock eventually being left on the shelf. When that starts to happen we risk the bean counters deciding it's not worth supporting anymore and this the supply of new kits stop.

I wonder if the introduce a new plastic Weapon Sprue for the Reaver Titan with the announced Titan Lance Box, they never released so far, like the sprue for the Warhound with the LI Starter.

I wish they release Decals for LI in the same Quality like for 28mm HH, there is no small golden Emperors Children Iconography on that 28mm Sheet.

They're also back in Stock online at the GW Webshop.

Are we talking the big bundle box or the ruins?

Big bundle box, ruins are going mail order only so you won't be seeing those for a discount.

Huh, I thought the bundle was a liited release

Tell me about it.. I've got a stock alert with about 5 places for the Astartes infantry, so far nothing! And they have been out of stock for some time.

I wonder if we get any further Preorders before April.

Got the Ruins Set at a local Shop in Early December.

If there are Dire Wolf kits in the wild, logic suggests it won't be too long. They won't want to warehouse that stuff for weeks and weeks.

Otherwise, the Leman Russ seperate Box on Ebay was in Early January...

We had rumors and speculations about additional weapon options for Tanks like Predator or Leman Russ based on Rulebook Illustrations, I wonder if they realy make them seperate weapon Sprues or Resin by Forgeworld.

I've decided not to get into LI, but just wanted to say that these models are really well built and painted. Great stuff!

At this scale they'll just be a separate kit, one more sprue will be easy enough to justify for a unit as iconic as the leman russ. The fact that they're keeping a clear distinction between "strike squadron" and "assault squadron" strongly implies another plastic box in future.

However depending on the number of weapon options included in the assault version I'd be concerned about the number of tanks per sprue dropping from 4 to 3, like predators.

could just be an extra sprue for turrets only, then a box with the current kit (and a higher price tag)

however I suspect you are right and what will happen is a new sprue, largely identical, with different turrets providing two new weapon options

personally I'd prefer a second sprue with just turrets but not holding my breath on that

I was expecting my preorders to arrive today to the local GW store. While my bases and Astartes support had arrived, the cards did not, and even worse, I received a refund statement from GW regarding them!

Anyone else getting their cards?

This is pissing me off quite a bit to be honest.. I ordered my cards at 11:54 on the preorder morning, which was over 3 minutes earlier than they sold out. Besides, shouldn't GW have sent me the refund notice way back then. when they realized they wouldnt have enough stock?


WEAK

Seems GW can't organise an orgy in a brothel.I when I ordered the rogue trader rulebook last year,I noticed the first line of my address was missing immediately after I placed the order(damn you autofill).So I notified them about it,and they confirmed twice the address had been ammended.Royal mail tried to deliver it last week but said couldn't be delivered due to missing or incorrect address.Now I gotta wait god knows how long for GW to sort what happens next

Anecdote I know, but don’t rule out Royal Mail being crap here. In recent months, I’ve had two packages of my 2000ad Ultimate Collection returned to sender, apparently due to incomplete address. Despite me being 166 issues in, and having had no other such problems with Hachette. And the last change of address occurring in April 2022, when I last moved.

Could be a squished parcel. Could be they dropped it in an oily puddle obliterating the address.

And this time? They didn’t even tell me it was being returned. Had to find that out from Hachette.
