MadGreek Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I wonder if they will use this as a means of retiring the old model and making a new (perhaps Primaris-ized) version of them?

WrathOfTheLion Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 It means they'll come back for a MTO run (if not updated in between), likely when the next Supplement comes out. Really, it happens with Middle Earth all the time with the older Finecast/Metal miniatures there. Things come back into favor during campaigns (Lothlorien and Easterlings being a big example now), and there's things that are just seasonally available. Really, I'm a bit surprised they haven't done this before now, it's relatively commonplace with some of their other games.

Paladin777 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) I'm not too heartbroken. I've got the Karleon model with a combi-melta (that might be my June vow for 12 months of hobby!), and Corbulo wasn't high on my to-get list.

Majkhel Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I'd say this looks like a purely financial decision - less varied and overall smaller stocks being held and handled at a given time. Plus I think all (or at least a solid portion) are finecast which is causing us and them problems.They are not discontinuing those models.

WrathOfTheLion Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Basically, these models are in a weird spot where sales are too low to keep them in continuous stock. So what they'll do is release them for a limited time periodically to concentrate demand and production there to have lower costs.

Tokugawa Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 On the other hand, they may have higher chance about getting primaris-ized product in the future.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 On the other hand, they may have higher chance about getting primaris-ized product in the future. Unless they completely re-write Tycho's character I doubt we'll be seeing the old 3rd company pretty boy getting updated. Shame, he's one of my favorite models and the back story behind how he came to be a figure is still one of my favorite pieces that helped me fall in love with blood angels.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 I think the thing I'm most looking forward to is a generic BA specific character like Tolmeron. A primaris priest, or new captain would be excellent.

Karhedron Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 A primaris priest, or new captain would be excellent. Why wait? I kit bashed both from Indomitus and run them with Armour Indomitus or Artificer Armour until GW see fit to give them proper rules.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 I saw those. I think they are quite cool. I may save something like that for the next GBBO. If that's something we still do...
