Get a free new Striking Scorpion mini alongside the latest GW coin promotion for the January 2025 Warhammer 40k miniature of the month!
Each month, Games Workshop offers a free “mini of the month” at their stores based on the faction release, along with a promo coin. It’s a fantastic way to try out new painting techniques or start a new faction without breaking the bank.
This month, from January 11th on, the free Warhammer 40k mini of the month is an Eldar Striking Scorpion. It’s a versatile model that fits perfectly into any Eldar army, making it a pretty much must-have for both new and veteran players.
Why You Should Grab It:
Striking Scorpions are one of the Aeldari’s top-tier close-combat specialists. They lurk in the shadows, hunting their foe, before delivering a lethal ambush with whirring mandiblaster fire and razor-sharp blades. This sleek Aspect Warrior is clad in segmented armor perfect for painting up in vibrant green or stealthy camouflage—whichever vibe you want to roll with.
Plus, those Mandiblasters on their helmets? They’re not just for show: in the lore, they can unleash a torrent of close-range firepower that shreds unsuspecting targets.
Regardless, having a Striking Scorpion chilling on your display shelf—or out on the battlefield—will give your army a lethal close-combat edge that turns heads and wins fights.
Free Warhammer Miniature (Mini) of the Month: January 2025
Just a heads-up: the latest Warhammer mini of the month is up for grabs while supplies last, and we never really know if the Warhammer store will be opening a 40k unit box for the free model or if you’ll get a complete miniature on a small sprue.
Either way, you might not get the exact model shown above by Games Workshop, but it should be from the same unit.
GW’s Citadel Collectible Coin Promo For January
On top of that sweet free miniature, the Warhammer store is also handing out this month’s collectible coin featuring none other than the Golden Demon—the iconic symbol of top-tier painting and hobby glory.
Snagging one feels like walking away with your own miniature piece of that prestigious competition, serving as a daily reminder to push your painting to the next level. Check in with your store manager to claim yours!
They both will only be available while supplies last, which means you might be able to get a coin and the free mini on an all-in-one trip, depending on when you go. Either way, if you ask the store and it’s in stock, the coin should be yours no matter how you slice it.
Plus, if you’re itching to check out the full lineup of exclusive miniatures since 2019, we’ve got a handy checklist for you right here.
More Free Warhammer Minis from Games Workshop
Games Workshop has also added a 40k Infernus miniature to the free lineup for Warhammer 40k 10th Edition if you bring a friend to a corporate store!
That’s right, if you are visiting a Warhammer store to score the collectible coin or a Miniature of the Month, it could be a great chance to introduce your friends and family to the amazing world of Warhammer. They can choose a free push-fit miniature, either a Stormcast Eternal or an Infernus Marine, and start learning how to paint it.
This month’s new free miniature and collectible coins offer is a great opportunity to visit your local Games Workshop store and bring a friend along.
So mark your calendars, and don’t miss out on the chance to get your hands on the latest free miniature and the latest Warhammer 40k collectible coin for the Games Workshop mini-of-the-month promotion.
