From their facebook page:

We will shortly be listing the following metal items, we will be listing them in batches and they will be removed from the site once they are sold out : -

Spoiler:

Whether this is an overstock or a blow before a Finecast re-release, I don't know, thought you guys may be interested either way no matter where you are in the world (you can still order the metal ones from other retailers maybe)

**lord_blackfang**

It's old stock.

**Testify**

I can't see all of those things getting a finecast re-release on the same day, it'd be pretty bloody big.
Also finecast melta/plasma guns...really?

**kitch102**

Meh - either way, these are going to be available on the GW site, and I'd expect them to be at lower prices than normal.

Whatever the reason behind it, it'll be worth a look.

This. They're just trying to shift them so they're not taking up space any more.

**derek**

They posted something a few days ago that they found some old metal stock in their move, so that's what it is.

**lord_blackfang**

So... how much you wanna bet these will be more expensive than Finecast?

**Unix**

Considering that one of the items are Tyranid Gargoyles, which have had a plastic box set for a few years now, it's really old metal stock.

**MadCowCrazy**

Allot of these already have plastic or finecast equivalents, some of them will be up for pre-order on the 14th of July.

So they are just trying to get rid of old metal blisters that are of no value at the moment.

**lord_blackfang**

They have plenty of value if you don't like Finecast.

**spaceXjam**

local games store has just gotten rid of almost 75 percent of these metal figures in the last week and replaced them with some advertisments for the time being.
