Looks like new Horus Heresy may be poised for release according to today’s latest new 40k rumors. Check them out!
BoLS is Reporting The Following:
Horus Heresy
Sources tell BoLS the initial products in the plastic Horus Heresy miniatures line are complete and fully packaged.
The initial two SKUs will cover:
- Mk. IV Maximus Tactical Squad
- Cataphractii Terminator Squad
These kits are fully manufactured, boxed, and sitting in the warehouse.
They could be shipped at any time.
They are shown in Ultramarines colors with other chapter schemes on the back of the boxes. Prices are unknown.
Stand Alone Boardgames
Both Betrayal at Calth, and more recently Deathwatch Overkill were BIG financial successes for the company. The lessons have been learned and several similar products have been given the green light. Look for more products with similar pricepoint, number of models, and overall quality to be continual and regular releases from GW.
It would seem these two products learned the lessons from the bitter pill that was Dreadfleet and GW has a formula they are comfortable with moving forward.
-Personally I think GW needs MORE of this. What Say Ye?
