More huge rumors for the lineup of 2023 Warhammer 40k Christmas Battleforces are here along with their contents and value; it’s almost that time of the year again!
The Christmas boxes are always a pretty exciting time in the hobby as you can get huge amounts of minis for a reasonable price! We have already heard rumors about what armies will get boxes, but now supposedly we have an idea of what will be in each box. Obviously, like with all rumors, take these with as much salt as you need because nothing is confirmed until Games Workshop says it!
However, if you see your army on the list, you might want to save those hobby dollars as these are always a good value. If you want to check out the value of last year’s boxes, you check that out here.
Let’s jump into the newest rumors!
2023 Warhammer 40k Christmas Battleforce Contents & Value Rumors
The rumors come from Bolter and Chainsword via Valrak.
2022 Battleforce boxes
Let’s get right into the numbers! Just to note, these USD numbers are based on boxes of the same price. At 180€, they will most likely be $230, but who knows where GW will go this time…
Bases on last years 35%-40% discounts I would expect 180€ this year instead of last year’s 170€ and that’s what the % discounts are based on
Space Marines 2023 Battleforce:
- Jump Assault Captain 32.5€ $35 based on the Captain with Relic Shield
- 15x Jump Assault Intercessors 3x 55€ 3x $65 ($195) bases on Heavy Intercessors, see below
- Invader-ATV 40€ $50
- Outriders 50€ $60
Total: 287.5€ -> 37% discount $340 in USD Value
(For the JA Intercessors I only expect 5x per box, same as the Heavy Intercessors, since the discount doesn’t add otherwise but maybe there are more ATVs/Outriders in the box, Valrak only specified the 15x Jump Assault Intercessors)
Tyranids 2023 Battleforce:
- Norn Emissary 90€ $115
- Hive Tyrant 50€ $60
- Hormagaunts 3×40€? $50 ($150) see below
- Genestealers 1×42,5€? $55 see below
Total: 302.5€ -> 40% discount $380 in USD Value
(Valrak didn’t know how many Hormagaunts and Genestealers will be in the box but based on discount I expect either a 3/1 split for Hormagaunts or a 2/2 split, with the 2/2 split it would be 305€ and 41%)
World Eaters 2023 Battleforce:
- Angron 130€ $170
- Berserkers 1×55€? see below $65
- Eightbound 2×50€? see below $60 ($120)
Total: 285€ -> 37% discount $355 in USD Value
(Again, Valrak didn’t know how many Berserkers/Eightbound will be in the box for sure, just that one of them would be 2x with the other 1x but since Eightbound fit Angron better, I expect 2x of those.)
Leagues of Votan 2023 Battleforce:
- Grimnyr 35€ $45
- Einhyr Hearthguard 2×50€? see below $60 ($120)
- Sagitaur 55€ $65
- Hekaton Land Fortress 90€ $115
Total: 280€ -> 36% discount $345 in USD Value
(He only talked about 1x Hearthguard in the video but then the discount doesn’t work and I think a second one is likelier than 2x Sagitaurs.)
Astra Militarum 2023 Battleforce:
- Command Squad 35€ $45
- Cadian Shock Troopers 2×40€ $50 ($100)
- Rogal Dorn Battle Tank 2×80€ $100 ($200)
Total: 275 -> 35% discount $345 in USD Value
Orks 2023 Battleforce:
- Kill Rig 110€ $140
- Beast Snagga Boyz 2×45€? see below $60 ($120)
- Squighog Boyz 55€ $65
- Beastboss on Squigosaur 45€ $60
Total: 300€ -> 40% discount $385 in USD Value
(Again didn’t specify any numbers but the Boyz are the most likely to double up)
Some pretty great boxes overall, and if these rumors are true, each army is going to get a decent number of savings. Orks are looking to come out on top, but the Nids box and the Space Marines box will be getting a ton of new minis in their boxes.
There are a lot of different offerings this time over last year, which is good to see GW spread the love to more factions. Either way, let’s hope GW keeps the price at $230, as in 2021, they were $210.
Just remember, though, these are rumors, so don’t get too hyped or mad about the contents. However, if these are right, each army gets a pretty themed box which is fun for both new collectors and people just looking to add some juice to their army.
