January’s Death Guard & Dark Angels 9th Edition 40k releases are still red hot, some going for over retail even- don’t miss the latest.
Some of the releases are jumping in price on the secondary market already as supply can’t meet the demand for new models and products, so keep your eye on the listings before you decide. Both of these updates were pretty nice, so be sure to grab them while you can before other items sell out due to demand.
