gorzag and nikkitThis model will be a “Commemorative Model”. It’ll come first to Warhammer stores from December 26th until January 3rd, followed by a release online through GW’s website.

gorzag details

Boxing Day* sees the release of Gorzag Gitstompa and Nikkit. Gorzag is based on a classic piece of art from the game Gorkamorka (ask your parents). He makes an excellent Ork Nob (and Nikkit is a brilliant Ammo Runt), an amazing addition to your greenskin collection, and a fun painting challenge.

If you’ve seen the old Gorzag model, you may see many callbacks like the boots and knife! You may also realize he lines up pretty well with the original art of him from the game/book Gorkamorka.

If you want to see our previous coverage of Gorzag & Nikkit, including the packaging and a leaked sprue, you can check out last week’s teaser post here.

Saul Tarvitz

TarvitzThe incredible new model beautifully encapsulates one of the first heroes of the Horus Heresy to turn his back on his own Primarch out of loyalty to the Emperor. Pre-order it from Friday and lead your Loyalists in a mighty last stand.

Tarvitz was an essential character for the loyalists during the Horus Heresy, so he’s definitely deserving of this beautiful new model.

With this wave of new releases, are you going to try to grab Gorzag in person or wait? How about Tarvitz? Are you excited about the next year of Warhammer?
