This week it’s some old-school Chaos Lords MTO Age of Sigmar kits hitting pre-orders on November 19th from Games Workshop.
Games Workshop has revealed all the new releases going up for pre-orders this Saturday, November 19th, at 1 PM Eastern time here in the states, for Chaos MTO!
Plus, don’t forget the Goff Rocker and Cadian Stands Army Box Set are on pre-order right now, and you can order them via the links below!
Archaon, Lord of the End Times
Archaon may have grown in size and spikes since destroying the World-that-Was, but his classic miniature is now back in metal. Whether you’re looking for a painting challenge or want to use him as a Chaos Lord in your new Slaves to Darkness army, this iconic miniature is a great addition to any Chaos collection.
As easily one of my favorite old-school models, I might be a little biased, but none can argue this model’s importance to lore. From a collection standpoint, this might tickle a lot of fancies. And the best part is you can proxy him in as a chaos lord if you really want to!
Khorne Chaos Lord
Claim skulls for Khorne with this classic champion, cast in metal. You can use him in your games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar as a Slaves to Darkness Chaos Lord – with the Mark of Khorne, obviously – or as an Aspiring Deathbringer in your Blades of Khorne force.
Even more easily played in AoS, this old Khorne lord still has an applicable Battlescroll to use in the current game! (although you’ll have to double-check the base size requirement)
Nurgle Chaos Lord
Painters and hobbyists looking to pick up a classic sculpt can give praise to the Plaguefather! Field this metal champion in a Maggotkin of Nurgle army as a Lord of Plagues, or as a Chaos Lord marked by Nurgle to command your Slaves to Darkness. Or just grab one to try out a few new techniques for painting rust.
As one of the next few more unique and less-seen options, this Nurgle lord would fit right into a Maggotkin force!
Slaanesh Chaos Lord
See if the path of excess leads to success with this classic Slaanesh Chaos Lord, cast in metal. Use him as an alternative Lord of Pain in your Hedonites of Slaanesh army, or command your Slaves to Darkness army as a Chaos Lord with the Mark of Slaanesh.
Continuing the trend, this Slanesh lord would probably look right at home in the current day Hedonites faction!
Tzeentch Chaos Lord with Familiar
Just as planned, Tzeentch joins in the Made to Order fun. As with their brethren above, this metal Chaos Sorceror Lord can be used in a Slaves to Darkness army, or be added to your Disciples of Tzeentch as a Magister.
Tzeentch is probably right there with Khorne in terms of old models still matching the new aesthetics well, so feel free to use this guy as is in your current Tzeentch armies! (Just be wary of the slight scale changes)
Mounted Chaos Sorcerer
Finally, there’s the classic Mounted Chaos Sorcerer, also cast in metal. They might not have rules for Warhammer Age of Sigmar, but they’re great for painters and collectors – or you could use them as a berobed Chaos Lord on a Daemonic Mount. With no specific markings, you could dedicate this miniature to any of the Chaos Gods* – or the powers Undivided – as you see fit.
All of the miniatures above are available on a Made to Order basis, starting next Saturday and ending on the 28th of November at 8am GMT. Please note that it can take up to 180 days to supply these models. Keep up to date with all the latest Citadel releases by signing up for our newsletter.
There isnt really a battlescroll associated with this guy anymore, don’t let that stop you from proxying him in anyways! He is a sweet model too!
New Imperial Guard Army Box & Christmas Mini Pricing & Links
Just as a quick reminder, last week’s announcement featured an extended pre-order window, so we’ve included those releases below as well, in case you’ve forgotten!
If you want any of those new Imperial Guard minis, this will be the earliest way to do it. You’ll also get early access to the codex, which GW indicated would not be sold separately until “next year.”

All models are supplied with their appropriate bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly
With a gigantic 28 new minis, we’d be wrong not also to check out each new one!
All of the new models are sweet, and this new Command Squad is no different.
The new Field Ordinance Batteries look great too! there’s no mistaking the fear of being at the wrong end of these.
The Sentinel may not have come to mind for many people as a model needing an update, but this new kit looks great either way!
Finally, the bread and butter. These new Cadian Shock Troops look fantastic and much more detailed and dynamic than before, which will have a rippling effect on armies that use them as their backbone.
The box also includes an exclusive copy of the new Codex: Astra Militarum with a soft-touch cover starring Lord Solar Leontus, as well as 63 datacards to keep track of your Strategems, psychic powers, and Regimental Orders. Absolutely everything contained within is currently only available in this set – and won’t be sold separately until next year.
The army set has a 13-day pre-order window, meaning that it hits shelves on Black Friday – something for you to be really thankful for.
Luckily as with some other major releases, this pre-order is extended so that everyone who needs it can have time to get their hands on it!

Ork Goff Rocker Retail Price: $35
Click here to get yours for less from these retailers: | Amazon | Dicehead Games | Bazooka Games | Frontline Gaming | Games Workshop’s Store Link
This festive Commemorative Series miniature has no specific rules or battlefield role in games of Warhammer 40,000, however, you are free to use the Goff Rocker miniature as a Boy, Nob, Flash Git, or any other appropriate role found within Codex: Orks.

The Goff Rocker is available for pre-order from Saturday and will be on the shelf from the following Saturday. Anyone who orders him before New years Eve will be guaranteed to receive one.
As the “festive” model for this year, this is a great option for just one more fun mini-hobby project if that’s what you’re looking for.
