Anyone have any insight into the release time frame the upcoming marine units? I am getting really tired of not spending my hard earned money on plastic.

Hah. I'd bet in the month of October at least.

I’m guessing mid/late Oct, alongside the IF/Sal supplements.

No source other than guesswork and pattern recognition.

How many of the new kits confirmed have been release with each drop?
So far each release has had 2 supplements, 1 character for each, dice, shoulder pads/transfers and what? 1 kit

the UM/WS release included the Invictor, the RG/IH included the Eliminators.
My guess is that the Salamander/IF will include the Infiltrator/Incursors

Impulsor seems to be a Chrismas release at this point, which means months more time proxying Rhinos as Impulsors

I'm gonna guess they'll release the impulsor with the infiltrators. in a large release.

A nice Christmas bundle would be if they did the “transport + squad” bundles they did a few years back. I would be interested in an Impulsor + Intercessors (or hellblasters!) box.

There's literally nothing left other than Salamanders+Imperial Fists books and model, Infiltrators/Incursors, and the Impulsor.

They badly botched this release, IMO, by holding full kits back alongside of the supplements.

Let's not forget that neither the RG or IH got dice, but we have seen the case for Salamanders dice.

Which is weird in and of itself, as the Space Marine dice have been the only ones I've noted lately as having the 'cylinder' instead of something like this:

Agreed. And at this point, it would seem somewhat consistent for the Sallie+IF release to only include the Incursor/Infiltrator set and leave the Impulsor for another release weeks or a month down the line.

Maybe they anticipate the Impulsor to sell like hot cakes (because it will) and are planning on giving it a release by itself?

If they were going to do that, they would have just kept it out of the damn book.

Ehh I just can't do that. I cant wait for the impulsor kit.

Man I just want my iron hands dice :(

I hope they actually make some. It would be very Iron Hands to be one of the only first founding Chapters to not get them, lol.

There were more kits released than that. First wave had the Phobos Captain and Librarian. Second wave had the Reiver Lieutenant.

I would guess at least two kits plus the SCs for the next wave.

We're still missing kits for the Phobos Lieutenant, Surpressors, Implusor and the Infiltrators/Incusors. There is also the Ancient in Terminator Armour but I doubt we will see a stand alone kit for that.

Yeah, me either. My son basically isn't playing his UMs until he gets 2 Impulsors for his Hell blasters.

Phobos Lieutenant already happened.

Suppressors, as far as anyone knows, aren't happening outside of Shadowspear.

All that's left is Impulsor and Infiltrators/Incursors. Whichever weekend (I hope/suspect this month) they decide to wrap up the Supplements will probably see those. I'd wager on before the Bonethings and the Sisters box or in between them.

Sorry my mistake I forgot the lieutenant came out with the captain and librarian.

Everything else from shadowspear on the loyalist side is getting its own stand-alone kit. I wouldn't be surprised if the suppressors got one as well at some point.

I think most people assume the "at some point" part. But when is the question. There's also a bunch of stuff on the Chaos side that hasn't been released as stand alone kits eithers, which seems incredible odd to me considering how the lack of those kits is giving a huge boost to after-market sells that buy the whole kit and sell off the pieces individually for a profit
