Sisters of Battle could be getting their full release a lot sooner than a lot of hobbyists were expecting. Check out the latest rumors on the Sororitas.

We’ve got a hot new batch of rumors telling us when we can expect to see the Sisters’ full release. But before we jump into that, take a look at everything we’ve seen so far.

Amalia Novena & Other Sisters Models

Sister Superior Amalia Novena was a Warhammer Day store exclusive. After seeing her first previewed at Adepticon 2018, it’s nice to finally see her out in the hobbyist’s hands. But there are a lot more Sisters coming as she was only the beginning.

Sisters will also be rolling in the Deimos-pattern Rhino dating back all the way to the Horus Heresy. These new plastic kits should be a hot commodity for 30k and Sisters fans alike.

A new Seraphim model mounted on the Inceptor flight stand was spotted in some display cases at an earlier event. Not sure what material this is, as the lighting makes identification difficult.

So far, all of the models are shaping up to really do the faction some justice. With that said, we’ve got another model for you to look over!

New Sisters of Battle Retributor Model Spotted

The heavy weapons unit for the Sisters are getting a rework and we have to say we’re pretty happy with the results.

You might remember the Heavy Bolter from a while back. It was previewed along with a handful of other weapons. We still don’t know who will be getting what exactly. But this Heavy Bolter sure looks good in the arms of the Retributor!

Retributors are also getting a resculpted Heavy Flamer! But these aren’t just any Heavy Flamers. These are loaded with the classic Sisters iconography and style. From Fleur de Lise and medieval-looking barrel extensions, these girls are looking unique. Plus, from the two pics above, we can see that there’s going to be all kinds of variations between the models.

In addition to multiple options of each weapon type and a Sister Superior to lead them, the Retributors will have a number of head options, including bare, helmeted, or ones equipped with rebreathers – all of which have their own additional flourishes of detail.

And last but not least, the Armorium Cherub is getting a new model as well. We’re not sure if we’re supposed to think it’s cute or haunting…But hey, either way, the model looks great and we’re excited to see where he pops up on the table.

LATEST: Sisters of Battle Returning Soon?

A lot of hobbyists out there though we would have to wait until late fall/early fall until early to see Sisters in stores, Today it looks like the wait might actually be over a lot sooner. Coming from an Industry Insider:

These ladies will be hitting shelves around back to school time.

Sisters have been generating nothing but hype since we’ve started seeing their models more regularly. While this all should still be taken as rumors, your eyes should stay peeled in the month ahead for potential previews from GW and more!
