All the new GW releases from early July into August are still available across platforms- here are the links to where you can still find them.
Most of these Games Workshop releases are orderable, but they might be low on stock or higher in price already on the secondary market. So be sure to check out all of the offerings and pick up anything you might want while they are still available…
Some of these may also still be available on GW’s store, but they are often cheaper when the allocations were favorable from stores elsewhere. Of course, if you can get them at your LGS at a discount, that may be a great place to spend your hobby dollars as well!
Here are the latest new Games Workshop releases with order links!
GW New Releases: July 9th
New Citadel Color Paints & More: Pricing & Where To Get Yours
There are over 30 new and redone GW contrasts and shades. One thing to note about all the paints is they will be on a 2-week pre-order. We’re not sure if they will sell out or what, but might as well grab something if you like it, just in case.
New Citadel Contrast Paints $7.80 Each
Click here to get yours for less from these retailers: | Amazon | Dicehead Games | Frontline Gaming | Games Workshop’s Store Link
Contrast has revolutionised the way we paint our armies. This massively successful range has allowed hobbyists of all levels to achieve the results they want in a quick, fresh, and easy way. The already-impressive Contrast lineup is set to receive 25 new hues.
Since the introduction of Contrast, we’ve had access to new techniques and easier ways to paint huge amounts of models quickly, so new options are always great!
These are some of the brightest and boldest colours yet, including fiery reds and oranges, icy blues, and vibrant greens and purples. They all go up for pre-order this Saturday, so clear some space on your shelves* and start dreaming up new ways to put the expanded range to use.
These are quite bright across the board, so it will be interesting to see what hobbyists come up with as far as usage goes.
New & Reformulated Shades $7.80 Each
Click here to get yours for less from these retailers: | Amazon | Dicehead Games | Frontline Gaming | Games Workshop’s Store Link
All Shade paints have been reformulated to flow better, settling into the recesses while adding a bit less pigment to flat surfaces, making them even more useful.
In addition to reformulating these beloved paints (and don’t fret, they’re the same great colours – they just go on smoother and better than ever before) they went ahead and added seven new Shade paints to the range! There’s something here for just about every project, and you’ll be able to pre-order all the new and reformulated existing colours starting this Saturday.
Shades are another great technical option for painting and new options are always great!
The new options look pretty interesting, and with an update to all shades, hopefully, they all are better in the long run too…
White Scar Spray Retail Price: $22
Click here to get yours for less from these retailers: | Amazon | Dicehead Games | Frontline Gaming | Games Workshop’s Store Link
Sometimes you just need a crisp, bright white undercoat to give your model the perfect start – and that’s where the new White Scar Spray comes in. It’s the perfect compliment to the existing sprays – Grey Seer offers a wonderful cool white, and Wraithbone a rich, creamy base – and now the trinity is complete! White Scar gives you that brilliant white base you’ve always wanted.

Click here to get yours for less from these retailers: | Amazon | Dicehead Games | Frontline Gaming | Games Workshop’s Store Link
Fresh from duelling Heretic Astartes in the Nachmund Gauntlet, the Corsair Voidscarred will soon be claiming plunder as an independent force.

Click here to get yours for less from these retailers: | Amazon | Dicehead Games | Gold Goblin Games | Frontline Gaming | Games Workshop’s Store Link
This multipart plastic kit builds a full Dark Commune, consisting of five models – one Cult Demagogue, one Iconarch, one Mindwitch, and two Blessed Blades. The members of this wicked cabal are clad in sinister robes, talismans, and daemonic masks reminiscent of their Chaos Cultist followers – but each boasts a unique appearance suited to their role. The Cult Demagogue wears a towering horned mask and pauldrons, wielding a staff adorned with a parchment strips and a foul familiar, while the Iconarch hoists a daemonic icon roaring with flames, his face hidden by a shadowy cowl. Both are marked by tentacled mutations, but the Mindwitch is by far the most twisted – a bloated, severed head cybernetically enshrined upon the body of a hooded cultist. The faceless Blessed Blades each wield an ornate ritual sword, standing ready to defend the Commune.
This set comprises 13 plastic components and is supplied with 3x Citadel 32mm Round Bases and 2x Citadel 28mm Round Bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly
Along with the cultist are these awesome character models.

In addition to cross-compatible weapons, this massively customisable kit offers a huge range of interchangeable cosmetics – including five unique backpacks, 10 unique shoulder pads, 13 unique heads (both bare and helmeted), and various accessories – as well as components to build a Chosen Champion with a choice of chestplates, loincloths, trophies, and a Chaos icon with different symbols for each Chaos God.
This set comprises 102 plastic components and is supplied with 5x Citadel 32mm Round Bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly

Click here to get yours for less from these retailers: | Amazon | Dicehead Games | Gold Goblin Games | Frontline Gaming | Games Workshop’s Store Link
This multipart plastic kit builds one Warpsmith, a fiendish engineer capable of enhancing and repairing the vehicles of the Chaos Space Marines. This powerful warrior is bristling with an array of writhing mechatendrils, a number of which can be posed individually. These tendrils are mounted with a variety of spikes, drills, snapping jaws, and two potent ranged weapons – a melta and a flamer – alongside the plasma pistol held by the Warpsmith himself. This kit is loaded with industrial details like smokestacks, bionics, and a choice of three different shoulder pads, each rimmed with corrupted cog-teeth – one blank pauldron, one with iron banding, and one with a skull-and-cog icon. It also offers a choice of two heads – one bare head riddled with bionics and cables, and one grim half-mask helmet – as well as two different melee weapons – a serrated power axe, or a crushing thunder hammer – allowing even more customisation amongst your accursed engineers.
This kit is comprised of 25 plastic components, and is supplied with a Citadel 60mm x 35.5mm Oval Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly
Daemon engines have been growing in popularity recently, so these Warpsmiths to support them aren’t a bad pickup to match them.

Venomcrawlers are arachnid-like amalgams of daemonic flesh and cursed iron, driven by a malignant sentience to scuttle across war zones in search of bodies to tear and spirits to consume. After butchering the prey with their excruciator cannons, claws and lashing tendrils, they draw the souls of the slain into their abdomens.
This multipart plastic kit builds a Venomcrawler and two Obliterators, warpforged biomechanical monstrosities capable of unleashing hellish firepower. Both Obliterators have a distinct appearance and pose, their warped armour and exposed mutant hides bulging with a variety of fleshmetal guns. The Venomcrawler sports gruesome insectoid details and abdomen-mounted excruciator cannons – it is also armed with a pair of soulflayer tendrils and six viciously clawed legs.
This set comprises 49 plastic components and is supplied with 2x Citadel 50mm Round Bases and one Citadel 100mm Round Base. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly

- Elite Earbuds For Podcasts & Streaming- Pretty much waterproof (I dropped them in a 3 ft mudpuddle), and indestructible ( I also smashed them on the asphalt twice). 15-hour battery life and quick charging case make these my go-to now for everything from phone calls to streaming.
