Warhammer Commemorative Series: The Complete List of Every Exclusive (2018-2026)

warhammer exclusives wal new releases pre order games workshop new releases warhammer roadmap games workshop new releases warhammer roadmap

See the latest Warhammer Day miniatures, Warhammer World Exclusives, and 40k Commemorative Series, plus find out where to score these rare models!

This has been an exciting couple of years for the Warhammer hobby, and we’ve had some tremendous limited edition minis (from Warhammer world exclusives to Christmas minis) to make all the special occasions even better.

With the fast-growing pace of releases in Age of Sigmar and 40k, we’ve seen some pretty cool Warhammer exclusive miniatures available both at specific events and in stores.

Here’s our list of all the exclusive Warhammer Commemorative Series miniatures released all the way back to before 2018, and where you can still find them.

 

TL;DR
  • 2026 lineup highlights: So far, Cadia Unbroken and Dawner’s Reward are event exclusives, Daemonsmith Ull Zuru is a £100+ in-store bonus, and the Path of Command Autarch and Korthrain, the Crimson Blade are store anniversary minis.
  • 2025 ended with the rerun treatment: The Hunter Strikes and Steel Rook popped back up for Boxing Day 2025, because “exclusive” apparently means “exclusive-ish.”
  • The secondary market is the real battlefield: once GW stops selling them, prices can spike fast, so if you spot one in the wild, do not overthink it.
  • Want free plastic? There is also a monthly free in-store mini if you are into the “show up and get loot” lifestyle.

Where to Find Warhammer 40k Commemorative Series Exclusives

Originally published in 2019. Updated June 18th, 2026, by Rob Baer with the latest Warhammer previews, exclusives, and reveals.

Tracking down these rare minis is half the adventure. For those not lucky enough to grab them directly for a limited time from a local Warhammer store or event, there’s always the secondary market. The scarcity of these models drives demand, and prices can skyrocket as soon as a model is no longer available directly from Games Workshop. 

Most of these Games Workshop-exclusive Warhammer Commemorative series miniatures were usually hard to get ahold of globally. So, if you have been thinking about it, you may want to grab one of these minis if you still see them available on shelves. 

Fortunately, we still found most of these Warhammer commemorative series for sale on Amazon or eBay; however, who knows how long they will remain available?

Websites like Amazon and eBay are teeming with collectors offering these exclusive Warhammer miniatures for sale, often at a premium. But if free miniatures are your thing, you can also score a free one each month from Games Workshop as well.

2026 Warhammer Exclusive Models Lineup

Double Exclusives for 2026 Store Anniversary

Cadia Unbroken: 2026 Event Exclusives

2026 GW exclusive Miniatures Cadian

Cadia Unbroken is all about that cold, locked-in battlefield focus, with a stone-faced Cadian commander who looks like she has already lived through the worst part of the war and kept walking. To grab her, you need to catch the Warhammer Events team on the road in 2026, since these Commemorative Series minis are sold through their travelling store and rotate out each year.

Dawner’s Reward: 2026 Event Exclusives

Dawner’s Reward (Age of Sigmar)

Dawner’s Reward is pure Dawnbringer Crusade energy, with a Cities of Sigmar Sergeant-at-Arms rocking battered kit and a heavy blade that is still doing its job. Like the other 2026 Commemorative Series minis, you can snag him through the Warhammer Events team’s travelling store, too.

Daemonsmith Ull Zuru: 2026 In-Store Bonus Mini

Daemonsmith Ull Zuru (Helsmiths of Hashut)
Daemonsmith Ull Zuru is the next Commemorative Series “freebie” stomping into Warhammer stores on January 31, unlocked when you drop £100 or more in a single in-store transaction. 

He uses standard Daemonsmith rules as an easy stand-in, but that altar base is oversized, so swap him onto a standard 32mm if you are playing matched play tournaments.

Path of Command Autarch: 2026 Store Anniversary Mini

Path of Command Autarch (Aeldari) product shot from box art

The first 40k Commemorative series release of 2026, this new Path of Command Autarch is pure Aeldari swagger: a real centerpiece commander that looks right at home leading a fast-moving warhost.

Korthrain, the Crimson Blade: 2026 Store Anniversary Warhammer Commemorative Series

Korthrain, the Crimson Blade (Vampire Lord) product shot from box art

Korthrain, the Crimson Blade, is a Vampire Lord in fancy armor, strutting around like the duel already ended and he’s just here for the applause. He is the Warhammer Commemorative series AoS release for 2026 store anniversaries.

2025 Warhammer Exclusive Models Lineup

Boxing Day Minis Are Back… Again

Looks like GW’s feeling generous this Grotmas, because The Hunter Strikes and The Steel Rook are marching out of the “vault” and back onto shelves for Boxing Day 2025. Once “exclusive,” now just exclusive-ish, these fan-favorite sculpts prove that no Warhammer mini is ever truly gone, just waiting for a rerun.

Grab ’em if you missed out last time or just want an excuse to argue about GW’s definition of exclusivity over leftover ham.

Da Red Gobbo’s Tinboy

Da Red Gobbo Tinboy

Da Red Gobbo’s Tinboy looks like something dreamed up after too much fungus beer and a holiday parade. It’s dressed up like a Christmas nutcracker, but instead of busting walnuts, it’s out there smashing skulls and spreading very Orky cheer.

Urkhan the Dark Warden

Chaos Warhammer Day MiniUrkhan shows up in full Chaos swagger: heavy armor, flowing cloak, and a pose that screams menace. With a choice of a spiky helm or scarred face, he’s perfect for a Slaves to Darkness army or as a display piece. Just don’t wait too long, he’s a Warhammer Day exclusive.

Space Marine Captain with Jump Pack

Space Marine Jump Pack Captain Warhammer DayThe Imperium gets its own treat with a new jump pack-wearing Space Marine Captain. Armed with a relic shield and thunder hammer (or chainsword if you’re feeling fast), he’s customizable and ready to lead. Best part? He’s not limited, so you can snag him anytime.

Infinity’s Lament: Aeldari Spiritseer

Warhammer Plus 2025 exclusive Spiritseer MiniThis Spiritseer is shown atop the ruins of a shattered Wraithlord, clutching a spirit stone in a moment that decides the fate of their kin. The sculpt’s cracked wraithbone detail reveals the inner workings of the construct, making it a rare treat for hobbyists. 

The Summons: Soulblight Necromancer

Warhammer Plus 2025 exclusive Necromancer MiniThe Soulblight Necromancer rises from broken gravestones, skeletal attendants at his side as he channels dark power. Flowing robes and swirling magic make the miniature a perfect fit for any vampire host. Whether for the tabletop or the shelf, he’s got gothic flair to spare.

Captain Centos: 500th Store Opening Celebration Mini

Captain Centos 4The new Space Marine Captain Centos isn’t just a copy-paste from 2016. This fresh take keeps that heroic stance, cloak flowing, bolter at the ready. 

He’s marching in as a Warhammer store exclusive for the big 500-store bash on August 9th, 2025.

Skaven Clawlord Kettek Throatbite: 2025 Event Exclusive Mini

Event Exclusive Warhammer MiniaturesKettek Throatbite is everything you love about these sinister, backstabbing ratmen. Armed with a pair of razor-sharp weapons and proudly bearing the flag of Blight City, this Clawlord oozes character (and possibly warpstone fumes) for Warhammer Age of Sigmar.

The First of the Faithful: 2025 Event Exclusive Mini

 

Event Exclusive Warhammer Miniatures 2Over in Warhammer 40,000, the Genestealer Cults are getting some love with the First of the Faithful. This Primus isn’t just another pretty model; he’s a tactical mastermind who can run circles around the Imperium’s best.

Biosigns Terminated: 2025 Store Anniversary Mini

Genestealer Exclusive MiniBiosigns Terminated is a miniature diorama that practically screams “welcome to the horrors of the 41st Millennium.” Featuring Genestealers, the galaxy’s apex predators, it captures the chilling aftermath of a bloody skirmish on a derelict Space Hulk.

Estenna of Brighthall: 2025 Store Anniversary Mini

 

Stormcast Anniversary miniOn the other side of the fantasy-sci-fi divide, Estenna of Brighthall brings a dazzling dose of righteous fury to the Age of Sigmar lineup. As a Knight-Zephyros, Estenna is a deadly assassin serving Sigmar’s divine justice.

FAQ About the Warhammer Commemorative Series Exclusive Miniatures

What is the Warhammer Commemorative Series?

The Warhammer Commemorative Series is GW’s run of limited-edition miniatures tied to events, store anniversaries, holidays, and other milestones. They show up through narrow channels like Warhammer events, store openings, Warhammer+, and in-store promos, and they almost never get their own rules. You’re picking them up to display, collect, or proxy as a stand-in for something close to their rules equivalent. 

Are there new Warhammer Commemorative Series miniatures in 2026?

Yep, GW’s got a full slate for 2026. Cadia Unbroken and Dawner’s Reward are the event exclusives, Daemonsmith Ull Zuru is the £100+ in-store bonus you grab in one transaction, and the Path of Command Autarch plus Korthrain, the Crimson Blade are the Store Anniversary minis for 40k and Age of Sigmar.

Is there a complete list of every Warhammer Commemorative Series miniature?

Yep, we track every Commemorative Series release going back to 2018 in the table above, sorted by year with the celebration type tagged on every row (Store Anniversary, Warhammer Day, Warhammer+, Event, Christmas, Boxing Day, and more). Hit the year jump links to skip to whichever one you’re hunting for.

What is the Warhammer Commemorative Series Lieutenant Titus?

Lieutenant Titus is the 2024 Primaris Space Marine commemorative GW dropped to ride the Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 hype wave. He showed up two ways: as a £10 voucher promo at Warhammer stores, and as a free toss-in with DK’s Warhammer 40k Encyclopedia book. Either way, it was never a normal retail release, which is why he’s tough to find now.

Where can I buy the Lieutenant Titus commemorative miniature now?

Lieutenant Titus is officially off the GW shelf, so the secondary market is your only play. eBay and Amazon usually have copies floating around, but prices have crept up since GW stopped selling him. Watch for relisted bundles from collectors who pulled multiple voucher promos and have spares.

What’s the difference between Store Anniversary, Warhammer Day, and Warhammer+ exclusives?

Three different release channels, three different vibes. Store Anniversary minis are basically freebies handed out at Warhammer stores during their birthday week, which makes them regional and easy to miss. Warhammer Day exclusives drop globally every October to mark the annual holiday, and they sell out fast. Warhammer+ exclusives ship only to active subscribers as part of the yearly streaming package, so you can’t buy them retail at all. That’s why so many of them end up on eBay later.

Are there Age of Sigmar Warhammer Commemorative Series miniatures?

Absolutely. AoS gets its own Commemorative Series releases right alongside 40k every year, and lately they’ve been some of the best sculpts in the lineup. Recent ones to chase include Korthrain, the Crimson Blade (2026 Store Anniversary), Estenna of Brighthall (2025 Store Anniversary), and the Soulblight Necromancer from Warhammer+ Year 5.

What are Warhammer Commemorative Series miniatures worth on the secondary market?

Resale prices swing hard based on rarity and faction demand, and the second GW stops selling one, scarcity does the rest. Older or fan-favorite releases regularly resell for two to three times their original retail on eBay and Amazon. Recently retired minis tend to hold close to launch price for the first few months, then start climbing once the supply dries up.
