The new White Dwarf seems to be holding more secrets that just new Blood Angels minis, come see what has been spotted!

If you ever thought that everything GW does looks promising then the small details seem to snowball out of control into an avalanche of hate. This is the definite beginning of that for this new product launch.

Also puzzling is the non release of those amazing boxed army deals for the mechanicus and Space Marines that were supposed to come out last week.

This is clearly a page from Warhammer Visions, look at the lower right corner.

New Minis

We get confirmation of the 4 assassins coming in clampack form at long last – 6 months after the Execution Force boardgame hit the shelves.

Each Assassin clocks in at $32 

Then we get the fantastic Blood Angel Chaplain arriving at $33

Blood Angels Terminator Captain at $33

Then the interesting one, something called Astra Militarum Leman Russ Tech-Command for $75 “2 miniatures – add a scion of mars to your collection with this tank and the Tech-Priest??”

A Horus Heresy Price Rise?

Take a look at those prices listed for Betrayal at Calth:

UK: £115 as opposed to the current GW webstore price of £95

USA: $185 as opposed to the current GW webstore price of $150

Europe: 150 € as opposed to the current GW webstore price of 125 €

GW should act quickly to quash these rumors and set the record straight… but will they?

~ Everything GW does starts out so promising…….
