So I was browsing GW's site the other day double checking paint colours when I tried to find the Series 1 and 2 of the Space Marine heroes boxes but the only things to come up when I searched them were the BaC HQs and the Captain, Librarian and Chaplain box set. As far as I know GW hasn't said anything about getting rid of them, unless I missed something, so why are they suddenly gone?

 

Sucks too as I was using them models for my Astral Claw Kill Team and wanted to keep adding to it.

Amazon they are shown as out of stock, the same as a few other sites. Dark Sphere used to do them (thats where I got them from) but now they only do the full box for Series 2 and not the single boxes any more, I had an order cancelled and refunded because they stopped doing them.

 

£12 for one!! At least Dick Turpin wore a mask. 

 

 

Up to £14.95 today :wacko.:

Can only assume as the demand is outweighing the supply if they are now out of production (can someone confirm if this is the case?), that the price of any left will only go up. 

Also this kind of blind buy box is usually a limited duration splash release being replaced by the following season in time.

 

I'm genuinely surprised anywhere still has season 1 in stock, both seasons have gone from most sellers.

 

If you want them I would not wait to buy them, I have a couple of projects on the back burner that needs season 1 and 2 but stockpiled when they were more widely available

Thats a fair point, Klisof. I don't remember if GW ever sold them on their own site. And its possible they were replaced but 1&2 rang alongside each other for a fair while.

 

Shame really, as they are really nice models.

They definitely sold series 1 in my local GW store, the manager was disappointed they never got series 2.

After you discount those of us that want loads of them for Reasons this kind of product is great to keep near the checkout for impulse purchasing and up-selling

 

I'd be happy if they kept them in stock. Or just recut the tactical and terminator boxes to the same detail and scale

Well they’re doing those little 30min games like labyrinth of the necrons and it’s 2 expansions that’ll get you series 1 if you can find them anywhere. And series 2 are being released in an ork one later on down the road similar to labyrinth of the necrons

I can’t find any info on the ork one that’s coming with series 2 terminators but someone on Facebook told me about it. I’ll try and find the post and see if there was a link

So I managed to find a site that still had a few of the Series 1 in stock,(after a minor mistake with the shipping of my order) I asked if they will be getting any more in and they have said that it does look like they are no longer in production. Which is a shame.

I have the Labyrinth, managed to snag it from Game, (but its only five models) and the Terminator one I have all the models for as well (just missing cyclone and banner ones) but I was not aware of a 3rd expansion.

 

 

Edit: I can spell... Honest.
