All the new GW releases since mid-November are still available across platforms- here are the links to where you can still find them in time for the holidays.

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!

Dice & Datacards

This kit is comprised of nine plastic components, with which you can assemble one Space Marine Chaplain, and is supplied with one Citadel scenic round base.

Black Templar Combat Patrol

In a sneaky turn of events, the Black Templar Combat Patrol is also joining the pre-order lineup. The contents of this are pretty useful for either veteran players or novice alike because it has actually useful units inside. 

Let’s get into the value

• 5 man Primaris Combat Squad $35 ($60 for 10)
• 10 Man Crusader Squad $60 
• Black Templars Marshal $35
• Impulsor Kit $75 
• Upgrade Sprue kit x1 $35 

Total MSRP: $240

Total Value: $100

From this, the value seems to be lining up with what we would normally expect to see from a Combat Patrol Box offering.

GW New Releases: December 4th

Krondys and Karazai (single box builds ONE of either option)

 

 

 

 

As an ancient and powerful being steeped in celestial magic, Krondys is a potent mystical force on the battlefield capable of unleashing debilitating storms on command. His magical might is matched by his prowess in melee, able to sweep entire regiments from the battlefield with a casual flick of his massive wrist, while foes are burned to ash by blazing tempests of draconic fire.

This multipart plastic kit is comprised of 55 pieces with which you can assemble one Krondys, Son of Dracothion, with the option to instead build his fellow Draconith prince Karazai the Scarred. The kit includes 1x Citadel 160mm Round Base

Stormdrake Guard

 

 

This multipart plastic kit consists of 105 pieces and builds two Stormdrake Guard in several different poses, each able to equip either a drakerider’s lance or warblade. It also provides options to construct one as a Knight-Draconis, a powerful Hero capable of supporting nearby Stormdrake Guard. This kit comes supplied with two 105mm Citadel Oval bases and two flying stands

Dungeon Bowl

Dungeon Bowl is the game of Subterranean Blood Bowl mayhem, played between two players. In this box, the College of Fire and the College of Shadows face off against each other in a dungeon with a customisable layout, packed with portals to jump through and chests to ransack. Will you be able to score a touchdown, or will you be scuppered by traps and opponents you encounter along the way?

This box comes with everything you need to get started in your quest to find the ball and score that single, scintillating touchdown.

We saw this during the previous preview, so if you want to check out more of what GW had to say, you can find it in our coverage here!

These new Necromunda releases were all capped at 1 per store in the states, making them though to get.

Underhive Outcasts Gang

GW New Releases: December 11th

All the New AoS & 40k Christmas Battleforces New Releases

Luckily, the prices are basically the same on these as last year! This means you can save a lot of hobby dollars by picking these big boxes up, just remember the Adeptus Mechanicus box has been delayed until January 2022 for the US and Canada. 

Space Marines: Shieldbreaker Strike Force

Overwhelm your opponent with the explosive might of the Space Marines. This is a Battleforce that hits hard and fast thanks to a Storm Speeder and 29 Primaris Space Marines, including some fairly chunky Gravis-armoured battle brothers.

While a box full of simple marines might not be exciting, it’s certainly viable as you’ll need a ton of marines to fill out a full list anyways!

Battleforce Value: 

• 10 Intercessors: $60
• 10 Assualt Intercessors: $60
• 5 Heavy Intercessors: $60
• Bladeguard Veterans: $50
• Storm Speeder: $65
• Primaris Captain: $35

Total MSRP: $330

Total Value: $120

Death Guard: Plaguefester Warband

This box includes a host of Plague Marines and Deathshroud Bodyguard, accompanied by daemon-touched war machines – three Myphitic Blight-haulers and a Plagueburst Crawler – all able to withstand a huge amount of punishment before crashing into the enemy lines in an inexorable wave of stench and decay. 

For Death Guard adherents in the US, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia, this Battleforce is available to pre-order on Saturday. Nurgle devotees in other regions will have a short wait before marching into battle – chalk it up to rusted joints.

With a great selection of characters, vehicles, and troops, it’s hard to go wrong with this box.

Battleforce Value:

• Deathshroud Terminators: $60
• Plague Marines: $50
• Blight-haulers: $75
• Plagueburst Crawler: $65
• Plague Marine Champion: $30
• Icon Bearer: $30

Total MSRP: $310

Total Value: $100

Necrons: Worldscour Legion

There’s nothing worse than being woken up from your nap aeons earlier than planned, which is a fact of (synthetic) life for Necrons across the galaxy. This Battleforce is especially cranky about it, and wants to put its opponents to bed with esoteric guns wielded by Lokhust Heavy Destroyers and Canoptek Doomstalkers, and the razor-sharp claws of the Ophydian Destroyers and Flayed Ones.

If the skeletal-robot theme of Necrons is more our speed, then this box also comes with a great selection of different types of models to give you a sense of what a full army might be like.

Battleforce Value:

• Psychomancer Cryptek: $35
• Necron Warriors: $45
• Lokhust Heavy Destroyer: $35
• 3 Ophydian Destroyers: $55
• 5 Flayed Ones: $50
• 2 Canoptek Doomstalkers: $80

Total MSRP: $300

Total Value: $90

Orks: Killdakka Warband

Killdakka, what a wonderful word to say out loud… Ork speech is poetry when you think about it. This box includes 20 Boyz, plus a Deffkilla Wartrike, your choice of Orky aeroplane, and a Big Mek. That’s lots of kill, and indeed dakka.

Orks have been dominating at tournaments lately, and conveniently enough, this box seems to come with an assortment of models that slot right into those meta lists if you wanted to try them.

Battleforce Value:

• 5 Nobz: $34
• 20 Boyz: $100 (New ETB From the Combat Patrol)
• Gretchin: $18
• Deffkilla Wartrike: $50
• Big Mek with Shokk Attack Gun: $37
• Dakkajet: $75

Total MSRP: $314

Total Value: $104

Adepta Sororitas: Purgatos Mission

What’s better than a tank with a stained glass window on it? Nothing, but a tank with a rocket-launching church organ is just as cool. This Battleforce comes with both – an Immolator, an Exorcist, and 16 Adepta Sororitas on foot, ready to toast a lot of heretics and marshmallows.

Sisters are a fan favorite faction, and their newest update helped reinvigorate a lot of their model lineup. That being said this might be a decent place to start as all of the models inside are the recently updated ones!

Battleforce Value: 

• Sister Dogmata: $35
• Celestian Sacresants: $55
• 10 Battle Sisters: $60
• Immolator: $75
• Exorcist: $80

Total MSRP: $305

Total Value: $95

Adeptus Mechanicus: Omnissiah’s Talon

If you like eccentric mechanical limbs, gosh does the Adeptus Mechanicus have a treat for you with not one or two, but 15 weird and wonderful modes of ambulation or flight! There’s also a unit of Skitarii and a powerful Tech-priest to lead this gaggle of whirring, clunking, zapping warriors.

For those in the United States and Canada, Forge World Memphis** has had its requisitions delayed by solar interference, so the Omnissiah’s Talon box won’t arrive until early next year. 

Ad Mech is another great faction if you like shooty lists, but unfortunately for the US and Canada, we won’t be able to pick this one up until after the new year.

Battleforce Value: 

• 5x Pteraxii: $60
• Ruststalkers: $49
• Serberys Raiders: $60
• Ironstrider: $55
• Skitarii Rangers: $44
• Tech-priest Manipulus: $35

Total MSRP: $303

Total Value: $93

Soulblight Gravelords: Revenant Legion

 

First up are the vampires of the Soulblight Gravelords, who lead a dolorous horde of brainless thralls in a bumper box that contains 66 miniatures. Hordes of Deadwalker Zombies are particularly useful for pinning down enemy forces while the Vengorian Lord and their Blood Knights swoop in for the jugular.

All of the models in this box were part of their recently updated line, which means even if you are a vet, most of these might be brand new painting challenges you haven’t had before.

Battleforce Value: 

• Vengorian Lord: $60
• 5x Blood Knights: $60
• 20x Deathrattle Skeletons: $60
• 40x Deadwalker Zombies: $110

Total MSRP: $290

Total Value: $80

Hedonites of Slaanesh: Sybarite Blade-Carnival

Add a little more finesse to your slaughter with the Sybarite Blade-Carnival, which collects a cavalcade of elite Slaanesh Mortals in one place. When these peerless warriors aren’t preening, they’re a surgical strike force comprising 30 miniatures – perfect for tearing reality in two and summoning gaggles of Daemonettes.

Nothing feels worse than getting a box with some old un-updated models in it, luckily just like a bunch of the other battleforces, this one doesn’t!

Battleforce Value: 

• Shardspeaker: $30
• 3X Slaangor Fiendbloods: $50
• 10x Blissbarb archers: $50
• Slickblade Seekers: $65
• Mymirdesh Painbringers: $60
• Symbaresh Twinsouls: $60

Total MSRP: $305

Total Value: $95

Lumineth Realm-lords: Vanari Shining Host

From one group of self-involved egotists to another, it’s the pointy-helmed Aelves of Hysh. This insufferably well-oiled Vanari Shining Host focuses on the Tyrionic half of the Realm-lords’ martial forces, bringing 23 models of archers, spearmen, and cavalry to bear with gleaming precision.

If you like High Elves, look no further than the Lumineth Realm-Lords, as they are essentially the spiritual evolution of what we all think of when we hear “High Elves”.

Battleforce Value: 

• Vanari Auralan Wardens: $60
• Bladelords: $60
• Dawnriders $60
• Starshard Ballista $50
• Bannerblade $35
• Lord Regent $55

Total MSRP: $320

Total Value: $110

Ossiarch Bonereapers: Mortisan Tithe-Echelon

Finally, the Ossiarch Bonereapers are back to collect the Bone Tithe on time, because they really want to make sure Nagash has a good Christmas. This immovable legion of 27 models consists of a core of Mortek Guard, backed up by a Mortek Crawler, and a range of grim bone constructs and heroes ready and willing to forcefully acquire each and every tibia and fibia on the docket.

Those dusting off their knucklebone abacuses ready for the tithe in the US, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia will be able to pre-order this Battleforce on Saturday. Everywhere else will need to wait a little longer for this set to arrive – but it’s on its way.

Battleforce Value: 

• Boneshaper: $30 
• Soulreaper: $30 
• Mortek Guard: $60
• Necropolis Stalkers: $50
• Gothizzar Harvester: $50
• Mortek Crawler: $80

Total MSRP: $300

Total Value: $90

As the final Battleforce box, the Bonereapers are a more elite variant to the standard skeletons we see inside the Soulblight Gravelords box.

That’s all the recent releases from Games Workshop that are mostly still available on the secondary market for this holiday season.
