We’re getting a look at a picture today that shows, what appears to be, a new Genestealer Cults Battleforce box. Come take a look!
It looks like Genestealer Cults might be getting a Battleforce box this Christmas season. The latest rumor on Bolter & Chainsword shows the new Battleforce box in what looks like a catalog or magazine.
32 models. Would make sense to be:
20 neophytes
5 acolytes
1 primus
1 patriarch
1 magus
2 familiars
1 iconward
1 Goliath
For $170 USD this seems like a really good deal for Genestealer Cults fans out there. But, this is just a rumor and we can’t confirm or deny that this will be available in time for Christmas, or where this image was actually taken from. The odd layout is sticking by the Christmas catalog style, and not so much the White Dwarf, but you can be the judge on this one.
This is just one of the rumored Christmas bundles we’ve seen lately… Let’s take a look at the other bundles from the Christmas catalog and see how much you’re actually saving by picking them up.

Now there seems to have been a pretty mixed response to these bundles, but remember too we can only assume that they will be coming out this month as they are in the November White Dwarf. We also know that by GW’s count there are still two codex books and Chapter Approved to be released in 2017 as well.
Last year around the beginning of December we saw Wrath of Magnus drop, so it’s possible Games Workshop could repeat the same sort of release with Chapter Approved again this year as well.
Do you think we’ll even see a new primarch in 2017?
All in all this year’s catalog is looking packed with tons of great deals to save you money this holiday season. There’s so many choices to meet your current needs. Makes sure you check back in with us as we get closer to the holiday season for updated prices and pictures of hopefully even more deals coming our way.
