GW has been enticing us with exclusive Warhammer miniatures for a while now- here’s the list of top ones from the past couple of years!
This has obviously been an interesting couple of years, but at least we’ve had some great exclusive minis to hold us over. With the fast-growing pace of releases in Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k, we’ve also seen some exclusive minis pop up throughout the past year or so.
You should definitely look into grabbing one if you see them available, some we even found for sale still on Amazon or eBay.
Primaris Lieutenant Amulius
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Lieutenant Amulius is Easy-to-build and was seen at 2019’s Adepticon as a surprise exclusive mini.
While he’s a normal Primaris Lieutenant on the tabletop, his model is definitely sweet and puts off a generic codex-Astartes vibe. If you still want to pick this guy up, he sometimes can be found on Amazon here.
Severina Raine
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This fine cast mini was released as the Black Library Celebration mini of 2019. She is an uncompromising Commissar that has been through hundreds of battles and helped retake the worlds of the Bale Star.
Primaris Sergeant Jovan
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This guy was another store exclusive for 40k in 2019. And while he may be a Primaris, he’s actually not a Lieutenant. He’s got one of the more dynamic posing/bases that we’ve seen in terms of Primaris characters so far. At the end of the day, he’ll make a fantastic (insert T4 HQ here) for any Chapter.
Sister of Battle: Amalia Novena
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Amalia was first previewed at a past Adepticon and we really didn’t know anything besides the model’s pose. It turns out that she was the store exclusive mini on June 29th’s Warhammer Day celebration. The best part is that she’s fully plastic and isn’t Easy-to-Build!
Valerian & Aleya
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Another release coming from the Black Library Celebration! These two are from the Watchers of the Throne series and even got some interesting (if underwhelming) rules to use them as named characters in your games.
Leena Stormspire
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This named Stormcast was a hero that was only available for store openings, refurbishments, or relocations. Rocking a shield and sword, she opted for a more tanky-loadout over her battle-brother, Berek.
Berek the Indomitable
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Berek the indomitable is a Stormcast that’s all about damage. With a big two-handed hammer, he doesn’t need to try and block anything.
Larissa Shadowstalker
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Larissa Shadowstalker is a Knight-Questor armed with a stormstrike glaive. She’s on foot and doesn’t have a shield so, in terms of in-game rules, she’s not the most high-speed low-drag option.
Dacian Anvil
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Dacian Anvil is the latest Stormcast special character to be previewed. He’s actually not available yet. He was supposed to be released at 2020’s Adepticon. But since that got canceled, we’re now waiting to see where he’ll pop up.
Catachan Exclusive- Sergeant Ripper Jackson
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This is the first bit of love Catachans have gotten in a while from GW, well other than the Colonel. This female warrior rocking a bionic leg is the latest exclusive mini we’ve seen previewed. This originally was going to be an in-store exclusive mini but GW also made her MTO for a while on the site.
If you’re lucky, you may be able to find one laying on the shelves somewhere near you.
MTO Librarian Terminator
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Update: After GW’s 3rd online preview, he’s been announced as an MTO with two weeks of open ordering before they produce them and ship them out. Obviously, it took a while to get this guy, but we eventually got it! Did you ever get your MTO order?
Sisters Tariana Palos Model MTO
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This new Sister took everyone by surprise as we had no idea GW was even working on more exclusive models for the faction. However, this Sister is posed just like the famous artwork we’ve seen over and over through the years.
In-game, she’s just a normal Sister so you could make her the position of a Sergeant in your force but that’s about it.
Catachan Colonel
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This one went for crazy money this year on the secondary market, and unfortunately still is… If you managed to grab this one up, nice work! It was a store exclusive that had a bungled release and just dove the price for this little guy through the roof.
Warhammer Day 2020 Mini – Chaplain in Terminator Armor
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Chaplain Tarentus was available in stores and online from Warhammer Day itself until the 8th of November!
Jakkob Bugmansson XI
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Now, the legacy of the legendary Josef Bugman continues in the form of this year’s Christmas model, Jakkob Bugmansson XI. This Brewmaster-General, and (some say) descendant of the originator of many fine ales, will be available to order throughout November and December before he vanishes into legend.
The last Christmas model took on the appearance of a Kharadron overlord brewmaster! It looks perfect with not so much going on that it’ll fit right into your army if you chose to field it.
Gorzag & Nikkit
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This model will be a “Commemorative Model”. It’ll come first to Warhammer stores from December 26th until January 3rd, followed by a release online through GW’s website.
Uriel Ventris Space Marines Model
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
The Black Library Preview event may have been 90% new books, but a brand new Uriel Ventris Primaris space marines model arrived in 2021.
Kamoteph the Crooked
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Kamoteph the Crooked is the new mini coming for the Necrons and 40k. He’s considered ancient even by Necron standards, he may not be fast but he sure is cunning!
They also say that these will be basically unlimited stock. Even if they don’t have any in the store, as long as you order it in the first week, they’ll get you a mini, let’s hope that holds true.
Sylas Beastbane
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
For AoS we’ll be getting a new Stormcast mini this year, Sylas Beastbane. If you ask us, the mini seems very appropriately named. He is armed with the new Questor Axe-hammer which allows him to strike an additional time against anyone he hits.
Holga Clovenhorn From GW Tournaments
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Holga Clovenhorn, Aspiring Champion of Chaos is going to be the model for the AoS side of things. It’s honestly a pretty cool mini, while the pose is static, the detail on the rest of it makes up for it.
Necron Lord Hasmoteph
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Necron Lord Hasmoteph the Resplendent is going to fill the slot for 40k. Necrons have grabbed a lot of exclusives this year, so might as well pick up another one. The sculpt isn’t anything too special, but having exclusive minis is always a plus for any faction.
New Primaris Space Marines Sergeant Castus Miniature
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
This exclusive model will be added – free of charge – to any individual order with a checkout value of more than £150 (or the regional equivalent) on Games-Workshop.com until midnight on the 28th of October, so you’ve got just one month to get yours. He won’t be available anywhere else either, so don’t miss your chance.
This is “Free” as long as you spend $240 in the online store or £150. They announced the latest of GW’s exclusive Warhammer miniatures recently, so obviously, it’s not on the secondary market quite yet.

These Games Workshop exclusive Warhammer miniatures are usually hard to get ahold of, even more so in times of social distancing and quarantining. But as we move forward into the next year, here’s to hoping GW makes some of these exclusive models easier to get.
Warhammer Day 2021 Exclusive Minis
Warhammer Day returns once again on the 30th of October 2021. We’re marking this momentous day with not one, but two incredible commemorative edition miniatures and an absolutely massive online preview of some of the major releases slated for the rest of 2021 – and beyond.
Primaris Lieutenant With Storm Shield
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Who doesn’t need another Lieutenant in their army? Well, if you’re already overflowing, get used to it!
Anasta Malkorion
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Phwoar. This Primaris Lieutenant With Storm Shield will be joined by the Vampire Lord Anasta Malkorion, with both miniatures available for a strictly limited time starting on Warhammer Day itself, the 30th of October, until the 7th of November. Anasta Malkorion will be available in stores and online, but you’ll only be able to acquire our brave Lieutenant from Games-Workshop.com.
It’s definitely a little disappointing stores won’t have the Space Marine, but at least they will get one mini.
Da Red Gobbo & Bounca
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Santa Claus he is not. Astride his loyal squig Bounca, da Red Gobbo dispenses presents to all the good little grots, and his model is packed with joyous details. Baubles and ornaments hang from the squig’s antlers and litter the ground underfoot, while the Gobbo’s trusty sidearm is slung in a holster across his back.
This miniature will only be available until 8am GMT on Friday 31st of December 2021.
This product is Made to Order and will be delivered in 180 working days.
Nothing is more jolly and in the Christmas spirit than a Red Gobbo and his candy-cane theme stick of dynamite, or at least so I’m told.
Bawla and Burk
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
The model will be available from December 26th – January 2nd in local Warhammer stores. If you can’t get to a Warhammer store, you can then MTO these from the 3rd of January to the 9th of January.
The mini is pretty cool but nothing too crazy and not nearly as festive as the Red Gobbo (they even did a coin for him)! Still, if you play Orruks, hard to complain about new minis. With this being MTO, we hope it will cut down on the scalpers, but if you want it, don’t wait too long we suppose.
While Bawla merrily hacks his way through skaven armies, Burk keeps the rat swarms out of his way. In fact, this grot is so cunning, we doubt that rat will ever catch him!
As always, and yes we mean always, the goblin is way better than the giant green guy standing above him
Exclusive Inquisitor Erasmus Cartavolnus
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
The Ordo Malleus is dedicated to hunting and exterminating daemons wherever they appear, and Erasmus Cartavolnus has been doing it for over 300 years. Despite his advanced age, this zealous Inquisitor still strides the battlefield in search of daemonic quarry, and his knowledge of binding rituals is second to none.
This is honestly pretty cool with the huge flame exploding from the book and giant sword. While the pose itself isn’t super dynamic, all the extra pieces of flair make up for it. You can check out his confirmed rules that were spotted as well right here.
GW Exclusive Gutrippa Boss Haggok
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
It takes a wily creature to command the respect of a Kruleboyz Gutrippa mob, and Haggok is always on the lookout for his latest would-be usurper to pre-emptively run through. With a (mostly) tame vulture keeping its beady eyes open for incoming threats, Haggok has time to relax a little and survey the battlefield, leaning casually on his skareshield. He fits in perfectly with your existing Gutrippa warbands, and as a unit leader, he has a more refined air than your average Kruleboy can muster.
It’s nice at least this year to see something other than Necrons or Space Marines get the minis! He’s not the most exciting model, but still pretty cool. If for nothing other than the vulture! We also saw Gutrippa Boss Haggok a long time ago as he was hidden in plain sight and in a rumor engine (or two).
Fafnir Rann
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
A celebrated officer of the Imperial Fists, Captain Rann was charged with the defence of the strategically vital Lions Gate Spaceport. He later joined the Templar Brethren, fighting alongside Sigismund and earning ever greater glory.
Not to mention he wades into battle with not one but TWO axes! Something about the blender that these guys must create in assault just screams, stay very very far away.
Dominion Zephon
Click to get yours on Amazon or eBay
Dominion Zephon had his Great Crusade cut short when he suffered terrible injuries at the hands of xenos warriors. No less a tech-adept than Arkhan Land – the (re)discoverer of the Land Raider and Land Speeder – created his new bionics and got him back in the fight. His jump pack lets him zip around the battlefield to bring his volkite serpenta pistols to wherever they can do the most damage.
Zephon, while not high-ranking, always seemed to find his way to the centre of the action. His body was shattered in battle just before the events of the Siege of Terra, and his extensive augmetic surgeries brought him into contact with a Tech-Priest by the name of Arkhan Land
GW Reveals New Exclusive Primaris Company Champion
Warhammer Community announced the new models along with some of the events you can get them at, such as AdeptiCon coming up. Let’s check out the minis you can score!
For Warhammer 40,000 comes the sword-swinging Primaris Company Champion. These formidable warriors of the Adeptus Astartes defend their chapter’s honour on the battlefield, armed with a devastating master-crafted power sword and skills honed over countless duels.
The Primaris Company Champion even has an entirely new datasheet for use in Legends games of Warhammer 40,000, loaded with three deadly Blade Stances. You can also use him in other games, perhaps as a particularly cool squad leader, or even the Emperor’s Champion.
While this exclusive Space Marines Primaris company champion doesn’t have a set role in regular 40k games, it would make for a ton of really cool proxies, and since it’s a GW product, nobody can hassle you for it. It’s an interesting mini but not the wildest thing we’ve ever seen.
You’ll be able to acquire these miniatures at Warhammer events throughout 2022 – such as AdeptiCon, which is taking place from the 23rd to the 27th of March in Schaumburg, Illinois.
If you’re going to the event and want either, better to pick it up there instead of trying to fight for it on the secondary market.
Exclusive Swampcalla Shaman
For Warhammer Age of Sigmar, meet Mugruk Da Watcha! This Swampcalla Shaman believes he’s found a new way of observing the battlefield using a special seeing-eye rock, but it’s really nothing more than a neat hat.
Wearing a blindfold won’t keep this malodorous mage from getting stuck in with a bogbark staff and he’s brewing up a bevy of elixirs to empower the venom-tipped weapons of his fellow Kruleboyz. Mugruk isn’t accompanied by a pot grot, but he can still jab at foes with his own backup stabba.
Everyone loves exclusive miniatures from Games Workshop, sometimes because it is such an adventure to get them!
