The latest Black Library release with a focus on Horus Heresy and the Siege of Terra are headlining the lore side of things this week.
Keep tabs on your favorite factions and characters from the worlds of Warhammer with the latest new release titles.
Siege of Terra: Mortis (PB)
The victories of Saturnine and the sacrifices of the Eternity Wall space port have faded into the hope of yesterday. Denied but not defeated, the Traitors intensify their assault on the Imperial Palace. With the principal space ports in Horus’ hands, the Warmaster now drains the heavens of his reserves.
As the pressure of the assault increases, the power of Chaos waxes. The waking lives of the defenders are filled with despair, while their dreams pull them in search of a false paradise. As the fabric of the defences fails and the will of those who stand on them cracks, Horus commands the Titans of the Legio Mortis to breach the walls. Against them stands the might of Mercury Wall and the strength of the Legio Ignatum. Ancient rivals, the god-engines of both Legions meet in battle, while within the walls a few desperate individuals seek a way to turn back the tide of the warp’s malign influence. Across Terra, lost warriors and travellers make their way through wastelands and gardens of horror, towards home and an unknown future.

Order The 8 New 40k McFarlane Action Figures
We heard about the new Orks coming about a month ago, but now they have been revealed and Amazon has them up for pre-order now! The links are in the headers if you want to hop on the pre-order first.
Warhammer Community unveiled all 8 of the new figs including 4 Orks, 2 Tyranids, and 2 Space Marines earlier this week. That’s three sculpts for the Orks with one artist proof, which we think looks better this time around.
Here’s the new action figure line-up that is orderable now with current delivery quoted just before Christmas on December 10th, 2021! Oh, and they are stupid cheap price-wise when compared to a plastic character kit from GW.
Ultramarines Reiver With Bolt Carbine
If the stealth and terror tactics of the Primaris Vanguard are your thing, then this Ultramarines Reiver is the perfect action figure to add to your collection. His backpack is outfitted with a grav-chute, so even if you accidentally knock him from your shelf, he’s all but guaranteed to land safely (though be careful – in the grim darkness of the far future, anything can happen).
We’ve seen a bunch of Space Marines before but hey, now if you need to be a little stealthier, this is the way to go. Order yours here at this link.
Space Marines Reiver With Grapnel Launcher – Artist’s Proof
If you’d rather paint your own Reiver action figure, the Artist’s Proof is the ideal choice. What’s more, in place of the Ultramarines Reiver’s bolt carbine and a grav-chute, this version is equipped with alternative wargear in the form of a grapnel launcher, offering added variety should you get them both.
It’s interesting they gave this one a different weapon choice for the AP. These are really fun to paint up and you can make it whatever chapter you want. Order yours here at this link.
Ork Meganob With Shoota
Da Orks iz ’ere! The first of four greenskin action figures from McFarlane Toys sees an Ork Meganob armed with a kustom shoota and power klaw and clad in mega armour enter the fray. You also can kit out his armour rig with an optional backpack with attached banner pole, and give him the metal jaw that no self-respecting Nob would be seen without.
This is the first Ork we’ve seen from them and it’s pretty cool, but the paint job does leave a little to be desired. You can always fix it up if you want but having some giant Orks hanging around would be so much fun! Order yours here at this link.
Ork Meganob With Buzzsaw
Of course, if you want your Meganob action figure to look even more killy (if such a thing is even possible), you’ll want it to be dual-wielding killsaws for some good ol’ fashioned slicing and dicing.
With these being more expensive we hope these are bigger and it’s a mistake on the site. The accessory of the metal jaw is just a really cool little addition. Order yours here at this link.
Ork Big Mek
The third Ork action figure enables you to match the three-model Meganobz set with a Big Mek clad in mega armour. He’s tooled up with all the gubbinz you could want, including a kombi-weapon with skorcha, a power klaw, and even a backpack-mounted kustom force field generator.
With a force field and a kombi-weapon, this is just a really cool figure! Order yours here at this link.
Ork Big Mek – Artist’s Proof
The Artists’ Proof edition of the mega-armoured Ork Big Mek is the perfect opportunity for you to try your hand at painting a large-scale greenskin. Armed and equipped with the same wargear as the painted version, you can add your own creative flair to this awesome action figure to make it truly your own.
If you’re not too excited about the paint jobs on the above Orks, then this is the way to go. Order yours here at this link.
Tyranid Genestealer
If you serve the will of the Hive Mind, there’s no better way to prove it than with this fearsome Genestealer action figure. It comes pre-painted in the colours of Hive Fleet Leviathan, and this beastie looks ready to tear anything in its way to pieces.
If you love Nids, you’re finally grabbing a McFarlane fig! Rejoice for all action figure lovers. Order yours here at this link.
Ymgarl Genestealer – Artist’s Proof
If you’re feeling especially outlandish, the Artist’s Proof version represents one of the infamous Ymgarl Genestealers, complete with the tell-tale combination of scything talons and feeder tendrils. As a blank canvas, you can paint your action figure in the colours of your Hive Fleet of choice.
Last but not least, the Nids are also getting an AP as well. So if you want to paint up your custom scheme, you can!
