Check out the top four Warhammer 40k models that everyone would love to see again from Forge World’s nearly 20 years as a company!
We took a poll on Facebook asking which out-of-print Forge World models you’d like to see come back. Everything on this list was once on Forge World’s website, but alas did not stand the test of time.
These models that made it on this list are the top picks for what commenters said they would like to see Forge World bring back!
#4 Chaplain Dreadnought
Chaplains fall in battle and need to be entombed in these mechanical husks too. And to be honest, it’s probably more inspiring to see one of these guys on the battlefield than a normal Chaplain….He got blown up and still “chooses” to march forward and scream litanies of hate from a tin can. Roll this dude with a group of Thunder Hammer Termies and a couple of other Dreads and you’ve got a nice little wrecking ball squad!
#3 Lucius-Pattern Warhound
The Lucius Warhound made it as one of the most-liked units under the poll because for those of us that have been around for a while, we remember this as the OG Warhound model from back in the day. This thing just brings back the nostalgia!
#2 Tauros Assault Vehicle
These things are usable by the Elysians and fills the role of a Fast Attack in 8th Edition. At only 51 pts a pop, they have a fragile T5 frame but are an insane harasser unit with 15″ movement and heavy flamer. Plus, the kit looks incredible with some similarities to the Halo Warthog.
#1 Sisters of Battle Repressor
The Repressor was also mentioned highly in the poll. These tricked-out Rhinos are great for Sisters to pile in with Meltas and Flamers and hunt key enemy units. The Repressor is open-topped so the valuable weapons inside are kept safe for a bit longer. At the ATCs, we saw multiple Sisters lists run these things. Looking forward to the Sisters of Battle Codex release, hopefully, we’ll see a redesigned Repressor kit drop again.
Honorable Mention: Anphellion Base
The Anphelion Base was a resin kit released by Forge World with some awesome lore behind it. The Anphelion project was a classified operation based out of Beta Anphelion IV. It was put in place to investigate a Tyranid threat/evolution process in the area by the Ordo Xenos of the Imperium. After collecting samples of captured Tyranids, contact with the base eventually stopped and was scouted by multiple Imperial forces once more. The arriving forces found out that the base was overrun by Tyranids and was overwhelmed. -Sick backstory right?
While these kits aren’t made by Forge World currently, hold out and keep hoping for a re-release! Forge World has done some surprising things in the past. These are definitely some cool kits we’d love to see once again.
So out of all of these out-of-production models, which one would you like to get your hands on the most? Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group, and sign up to get your free hobby updates newsletter each morning as well!
