Dunno if this is the right place for this.
It looks like GW has been slowly adding to the bitz packages. While speed of bitz-pack releases is out of the public's control, I thought it might be beneficial to make another thread here in modelling that might act a summary of requests for the GW fellows that frequent this board.
Requests (current range):
Dark eldar special weapons - The whole range is online, except for the special weapons troopers who are curiously absent from the web store. Hopefully these guys will come back either as a blister in the web store, or as a special weapons pack.
Imperial guard vehicle accessory sprue
Tyranid monstrous creature weapons sprue
Space marine jump pack(s) - Stormboyz got some loving, no reason to leave out the other guys' jump packs.
Raptor jump pack(s) - with the number of people building pre-heresy armies, this might be a nice addition to the web store.
Requests (archive):
GORKAMORKA GUBBINZ SPRUE!!! - If you bring back an archive sprue, let it be this one! Everybody benefits from more gubbinz. You brought back the Necromunda bulkheads - please let the gubbinz sprue live again!

Jump Packs are on the Assault Marine frame now, and I believe the seperate JP sprue is now OOP.
The Metal one could likely still be produced though.

The Blood Angels Honour Guard is listed as being in production and it used to contain the old jump pack sprue, unless it has been repacked.
While it would be nice to get the archive turbofan jump pack back in production, I think this is unlikely.

I would also love the idea of a Sonic Weapon pack - as many people as I've seen on various sites trying to buy or trade for them, I'd imagine GW could make a pretty penny from the set. Maybe a pack of 5 sonic blasters and 1 Blastmaster? Or a pack of 5 Sonic Blasters, and a pack of 5 Blastmasters? I'd most definately drop money on that one.

He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags. |

I was about to say they DO have a Sonic Weapons pack, but it doesn't seem to have made the transition to the new version of the site. Sadness. IIRC, it was 5 Blasters + Blastmaster.

I haven't thought of anything.
Oh, well. Maybe.
However, the above said the below is a list of individual bitz that I just personally cannot believe are not available yet -
The Tyranid Warrior weapon sprue desperately needs rereleasing, given without it it's only possible to make one warrior with rending claws per boxed set.
Bekalor's wings. His head and sword would be nice too.
Most of the greater deamon weapons and heads, given the Deamons release. From a personal perpective the KoS heads and sword would be invaluable.
The six old Chaos marine standard tops - these are invaluable for making Deamonic icons, especially given Tzeench players have to convert theirs.
Khazrak One-Eye's whip for lash conversions.
Tzeench champion's disc on it's own.
The bulk of the components to make the two classic Deamon Prince models.
Azazel too, given the need for Deamon Prince models this month. The fact this needs pointing out is worrying.
Detchala, the Denied One. And her components to make Heralds.
A bunch of chariot parts, given the lack of Deamon chariot models.
The mounted Slaanesh lord to be available seperately. His head to be available seperately. His boobworm to be available seperately. His banner pole to be available seperately.
Morathi without the pegasus.
Tyrion's steed.
Archaon's steed.
Archaon's helmet and sword.
Settra without his chariot.
The Black Orc Big Boss sheild.
Every plausible cultist model in the range. Primarily this means the individual availability of most of Necromunda's House Cawdor, Redemptionists, the Escher Juves, the Sisters of Sigmar from Mordheim and the Chaos warband.
The Apocalypse tank accessory sprue.
The Predator turret sprue.
The Razorback turret sprue.
The Vindicator extra armour sprue.
The Landraider lascannon sprue.
Individual models from Inquisitor retinues so Warhammer isn't Pokemon with random bister packs any more.
Techmarine servo harnesses. Fabius Bile's too.
Individual techmarine servitors to select the weapons.
Grimaldus' servitors individually.
The Space Marine Terminator captain stormbolter arm.
The Emperor's Champion's sword arm.
The Space Marine Terminator Librarian combi-plasma hand.
The individual Space Marine Veteran arms (particuliarily the lightning claws).
Is the Marine librarian's book seperate?
The three robed metal Dark Angels.
Captain Lysander's sheild.
Most of the Throne of Judgement in individual pieces.
Penitent engine riders.
Inquisitor Coteaz invidually.
Seraphim jump packs.
The Vindicator Assassin's sniper rifle arm.
Redemptor Kyrinov from the old SOB book.
Lord Commander Solar Marcharius.
Commander Farsight's sword.
The old Space Wolf scout backpacks - very useful for tech-guard.
Salamander Chaplain Xavier, with his hammer and cape available seperately.
The Blood Angel honour guard banner.
Saint Celestine's cape, which is great for making Imperial gothic characters.
The SoB Exorcist organ - great terrain piece and often used by Slaanesh vehicle converters. And the pulpet too. And the side panels (good for all sorts of Rhinos)
The SoB clear window sprue.
Individual Sister Repentia Mistresses (again, has whips which are essentials with Lash)
The classic Noise Marine with the actual guitar.
Lucius the Eternal's backpack.
The Noise Marine champion head *on it's own*
Ahriman's head and staff.
Individual Thousand Sons bitz.
Absturabael Vedct's Incubai bodyguard.
The Red Gobbo (brilliant model that should have never left production)
The Deffcopta pilot on his own (handy to add variety given the new imminent plastics)
Tyranid Hive Tyrant lash whip arms (Tyrant Guard can be armed with these)
Slaan Mage Priests (on their own)
The old Brian Nelson Orc warboss on a boar.
Adeptus Arbities. Ideally the old Jes ones.
Necromunda hired scum.
Necromunda Wyrds.
Karloth Valois
Donna Ulante
