You can still get a free mini from GW stores at the beginning of the month, but now the model will actually be from that month’s big release!
They didn’t actually say if the coins will be gone for good, but there wasn’t one included in the WC post. So there’s a chance they are done with them or just taking a break this month. Either way, they are trying to bring people into stores with more relevant releases than a single core mini.
Warhammer Community posted the first model you can score, a Rotmire Creed from Warcry: Heart of Ghur, and more details about the promotion.
First Free Mini is GW’s Latest New Pivot
Instead of a model from an existing kit, people who make their way into their local store at the start of every month* will earn themselves a sweet model taken from that month’s biggest release. Just walk into your nearest Warhammer and ask staff how to claim yours!
This is a pretty cool change; however, they are giving themselves an out with that asterisk. As they then state, not every month will actually be a new model, but it will most of the time.
So with Warcry: Heart of Ghur coming to pre-order this weekend, August’s miniature is a raggedy fighter from the Rotmire Creed, whom you can see in all his festering glory right here.
Whether you just want to start a special display of miniatures, or you’d like a taste of the Rotmire Creed, check back here during the coming week to find out exactly when you can add this ague-ridden blighter to your collection. As ever, this promotion runs while stocks last – check with your local store manager for the full details.
It’s a cool model, and it will be interesting to see if everyone actually grabs this model as before they just opened a box and made the minis. If they only give out this mini, we expect supplies to be more limited than before.
As they will have to send tons of just this model out. we’ll see in August from the community how many people were able to grab the new model.
