More info on the new Space Marines today, as retailers seem to be confirming a few things. Check this out!

Retailers are now chiming in on BoLS regarding Space Marines 5-20-2015

Since Monday 5-18-2015 the following products have been removed from compulsory re-order:-Space Marine Assault squad (48-09)
-Space Marine Devestator squad (48-15)
-Codex: Space Marines (48-09-XX)

That lines up exactly with the kits said to be replaced with the new codex. Compare that to this previous set of rumors:

He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
