We knew this was coming, but if you want any of these kits, get them soon, because GW is killing off more Horus Heresy models.
GW has been slowly (well, not that slowly) getting rid of a ton of the Forge World line. We’ve talked a lot about how they have been rebranding/getting rid of models from Forge World, which you can read about here.
For now, though, the only thing that matters is if you want any of these models, order them now before they are gone for good!
As we said though, Games Workshop did at least preface this when they announced the new Contemptor upgrade kits, so it’s not as surprising as some of the other models that have left the Forge World range.
GW is Killing Off More Horus Heresy Models on Last Chance to Buy
Well, GW just sent out the emails today, and a ton of the legions are already sold out, so if you see any you like, you better hop on it soon, as we don’t expect them to stay in the store for very long.
Now let’s look at some you can actually score.
