Come see what one BIG rumormonger is saying about more Daemon Primarchs, and the return of Chaos Cult legion rules in codex forms!
Checkout what Squiggly has to say about even MORE Daemon primarch that may be on the horizon, along with fan favorite Chaos cult legion rules:
To quote myself;
“The Cults will be expanded to the point they can form their own mini codexes with the Traitor Primarchs at their head”Q:What is a mini codex? Each of the Cults appears mixed into a Campaign Supplement?
A:Think Genestealer Cultists/Harlequins/Deathwatch.
A codex built around a few unique things, and then filled out with more generic stuff to make it a full codex.Q:Fulgrim has been strangely absent from all the primarch rumors:(
A:He’ll be the last of the Cult Primarchs to get done.
Either Angron/Mortation are the next Daemon Primarchs to get released. I’m not 100% on the order though. I heard about Angron first, but that doesn’t mean alot
So lot’s to digest today folks, make sure you take your salt pills, this fall’s releases looks to be super SPICY!
New Magnus Miniature Discussion
So you’re saying there’s a chance??
GW’s BIG Reveal & 30k Previous Rumorby Squiggly & More:
The Start of Something BIG:
First off new art: Looks like Arhiman may be fist bumping with Magnus soon – Definitely post Heresy here. Checkout the Thousand Sons decked out in the fore.
Next up is what they say is a new Thousand Sons sprue, which looks to be styled after the old Berzerker models with split legs perhaps. Shoulder pads and heads look the be on the left side. Or it may not be a new sprue at all, either way Tzeentch is pleased.
And the money shot. Magnus himself, in all this Tzeentchian glory!
The full model revealed!
and the quote heard round the world:
Cool this isn’t released for months yet. <Long Pause> Plastic Sisters of Battle!
Mark this day down folks, as the hobby looks to have changed forever. Either that or we just got the biggest troll from GW, either way a good time was had by all…
Earlier today we saw this, perhaps it came form one of those trash bins?
What appears to be a box for a brand new Plastic Magnus Daemon primarch model (judging by the size) is here. If I was a betting man I would say this kit will be well over the $100 mark when it releases based on the Bloodthirster, Alarielle, and Celestant Prime models.
So lot’s to digest today folks, make sure you take your salt pills, this fall’s releases looks to be super SPICY!
Previous 30k Rumor by Squiggly and more:
Rumormonger 75Hastings69 on Sept 6th 2016, said on the plastic Ahriman that was recently spotted:
Wait what?
“Looks good, I’m looking forward to seeing Magnus, Angron, Mortarion, Russ & Guilliman now :D”

Rubric? Yes. Magnus? Yes.
Think these have been mentioned before.
Plastic daemon Angron? Not to my knowledge.
Next 40K plastic primarch after Magnus should be a loyal one (not Russ, not Prospero related).
Follow Along With The Story:

Tzeentch and Khorne will front the CSM revamp.
The release pattern for CSM should be similar to that of Age of Sigmar, a move away from Chaos Undivided and focusing on what really makes Chaos distinct. Ie; The 4 Gods.
The Cults will be expanded to the point they can form their own mini codexes with the Traitor Primarchs at their head.
“We heard you liked your Rubics with guns, so we gave them swords instead.”
Magnus and Angron will be the first Traitor Primarch releases.
That doesn’t mean you won’t see some Undivided releases. You will, it is a full revamp of the range afterall. Just that releases will be themed ala Age of Sigmar stuff has.
2017 will be good for 40k Khorne players.
Infact alot of what the 2nd 40k End Times book is about, is Abbadon unleashing Kharn on the Imperium.
Chill your beans, you’re getting new Rubics of several different varieties soon.
No exact time frames are stated here, but expectations are high after both Kharn, and a 30k sorcerer were spotted recently. Remember BoLS reported back in June a “random” sighting of something that reportedly looked like a plastic version of the Primarch Magnus:
via Mauler 6-9-2016 (DISQUS)
“I bumped into an old mate last night who had a chap with him who I’d not met before. He said that he knew people working at GW, said that they were working on Warzone: Fenris pt2 at the moment and showed me two grainy photos.
I assume that the delay in pt2 is down to the models involved as one pic was of Thousand Sons in ornate armour that I’d not seen before and the other pic was of a daemonic Magnus. Hard to make out details on him from memory but there was a fair bit of blue & red on him and I vaguely remember something like blue pinions outstretched from his back but I’m not sure if they were wings. Clearly a departure from a Primarch Magnus from FW.
And a plastic Magnus from GW was the last thing I expected to see. It looked legit, but I don’t know the chap, so…”
So we have Forge World cranking out thier own set of pre-heresy Primarchs, but this model description sounds like a Daemonic version of Magnus the Red. for Reference, here is the ancient Daemonic Magnus miniature from EPIC:
Daemonic Magnus, EPIC, Circa : 1995
It is also possibly a case of mis-identification.Remember very reliable rumormongers have been saying for months the plastic Lord of Change that is said to be coming later this year.
And not 12 hours later the internet was alive with chatter related to this seemingly random utterance:
First off today we have Squiggly on Disqus:
There is an element of truth to this one.. The FW and GW studio’s were considering doing the Daemon Primarchs in plastic rather than resin, purely because of the nature of plastic. But I don’t think/didn’t know anything this was far done if this is accurate.
I’m not saying this is right/wrong. I heard we might get plastic ones, but no details on when, or even if, we will see them. Tbh if we were going to see any of them soon, I presumed it would be Angron. Considering he’s meant to be getting rules in one of the planned FW books.
I really hope we do see Magnussoon though.
So a solid maybe?
