More savings are ahead! Come see how much you can save on the Twelve new box sets that are coming in 2017 for Warhammer 40k!

In typical mid-month fashion Games Workshop came out swinging, previewing new release items that they did not put in their White Dwarf magazine.

Here’s what they say is on the way for 2017:

A first look at some new, great value sets that will be hitting the shelves in new year.

These are the perfect way to expand a new army (like the one you’re getting for Christmas, since you’ve been so good all year) or to re-visit an existing army that’s just been waiting for a few reinforcements.

These are the perfect way to expand a new army (like the one you’re getting for Christmas, since you’ve been so good all year) or to re-visit an existing army that’s just been waiting for a few reinforcements.

A couple of these and an HQ choice would give you a great start to a highly mobile force as the basis of a new army for the new year.

These sets will be available to pre-order on the 31st of December.

 

Multiple retailers have reported to Spikey Bits that the new Armored Assault box sets will retail for $55 and be on store shelves on January 7th 2017.
