New Warhammer 40k Pre-Order Releases:
Updated on December 6th, 2025, by Rob Baer with pricing equivalencies in local currencies and links to order yours.
As of Saturday, December 6th, 2025, these products are available on store shelves! If you’re still waiting on something else to hit pre-order, though, be sure to check out the latest new release lineup in our updated Warhammer Roadmap for 2025.
Ferren Areios Pre-Order: $45 CAD$55 AUD$77 £27.50 €35
The Captain of the Ultramarines Sixth Company swings a thunder hammer named Honour, which feels appropriate for someone handpicked by his Primarch.
The model is up for grabs for a short window, with rules online soon.
Ancient in Terminator Armour Pre Order: $47 CAD$56 AUD$78 £29 €37
Cue the Ancient in Terminator Armour pre-orders. He shows up with two banner toppers, multiple poses, and a buffet of heads, including some that forgot their helmets at home.
The kit packs a variety for anyone who wants their banner bearer to feel extra fancy.
Terminator Assault Squad Pre-Order: $69 CAD$83 AUD$117 £42.50 €55
This new Assault Terminator pre-order box builds five of the chunky lads, armed with lightning claws or the thunder hammer and shield combo. Everything is interchangeable, and the sprues are drowning in helmets, tilting plates, and decorative scraps.
You even get a Teleport Homer and a transfer sheet with more decals than you will ever finish using.
Suboden Khan Pre-Order: $65 CAD$78 AUD$110 £40 €51.50
The Suboden Khan pre-order charges into view on his grav bike, Thunder, leading the White Scars First Brotherhood with style. He is known for hunting down anyone foolish enough to run from him, swinging a power sword and Stormtooth like he has done for centuries.
The miniature comes with helmeted and bare head options, letting hobbyists decide just how windswept he looks. You can also score him from the White Scars Combat Patrol if you happen to find one.
New Warhammer The Old World Pre-Order Releases

Chaos Marauders Army Reinforcement Set Pre-Order: $180 CAD$215 AUD$264 £118 €145
This monstrous Chaos Marauders Army Reinforcement Set pre-order box includes 40 Marauders with loads of weapon choices, two heads each, and enough bits to create four full units. It keeps going with 10 Marauder Horsemen, split into two units of five, plus an absurd number of head options.
Arcane Journal: The Razing of Westerland: $29 CAD$34 AUD$42 £18.50 €23
Inside are profiles for Marauder factions, magic from the Shadowlands, trinkets soaked in malice, and a Path to Glory setup for growing an army across a campaign.
There are three historical scenarios ready for anyone eager to recreate some old-fashioned ruin on the tabletop.
