The sky’s the limit this week as things just heated up for Warhammer 40k. Come see the new flyer releases and pricing was spotted over the weekend!

Bigger pictures are here now of the new flyer box sets, and BoLS is reporting the following prices (and savings):

summer of flyers

Stormcloud Attack – Faith & Heresy: $100

Stormtalon Gunship $55

Heldrake $74

Total MSRP: $129

Savings – $29

Stormcloud Attack – The Eldritch & The Beast: $100

Hemlock Wraithfighter – $65

Dakkajet – $65

Total MSRP: $130

Savings: $30

Stormcloud Attack – The Ancient & The Greater Good: $100

Doom Scythe – $45.50

Razorshark Shrike Fighter – $65

Total MSRP: $110.50

Savings: $10.50

So for the majority of these we’re talking about a 20% savings with the Necron one clocking in at about 10%. Interesting price schema here, as we saw nearly a 35% savings on the Knight Renegade box set.

Now I can see Games Workshop wanting to keep these above the $85 start collecting box prices so in theory the $100 price tag has a nice ring to it, BUT when you do the math, will that be enough to make them sell as well as the Knights for example?

What We Know About the Summer of Flyers:

You heard it here first! Looks like GW has more 40k releases for us heading into the summer!

Remember last week’s teaser, with that little blurb we all ignored about flyers? Well guess what, GW got us good on that one!

Wow well that escalated quickly! Looks like the summer of flyers is officially here!

– Hey Forge World, Don’t Forget Our Flyer Rules – Cheers!
