Already been mentioned but Assault Squads, Bikes and Javelins would all make a whole range of lists much more accessible, cost wise. 
 

For me personally, a plastic Storm Eagle / Fire Raptor combo kit would be a dream. We know it is doable because of the 40k flier kits and those Forge World ones are just the devil. 

Definitely Outriders and I only want one unit and some characters.

 

The FW way is so expensive.

 

I'd love to see Assault Marines (even if I am sitting on 25 MkIV resin), Breachers and as mentioned more options for the Terminators. The Tartaros pattern is particularly lacking in options.

All the kits and upgrades that we know are imminent or are even theoretically already available, because this release has been consistently bamboozling for my own plans. I'd love some plastic Mk IVs to hold special weapons for my Warder squads, or some Contemptor arms for my IF chassis, or some plastic rotor cannon to scatter around liberally as assault cannon but I'll be damned if I know when I'll be able to get any of that.

I have the money GW, just let me love you.

Given I'm collecting a Raven Guard force for which I've committed to no dreads or tanks, definitely speeders, jetbikes and bikes

I'd honestly like to see some more/ specialised infantry though - it's been great seeing all the main tanks/ dreads coming to plastic but there's a lot of the core units of the list that are pretty difficult to build now.

I'm really hoping we at least get dedicated kits for all the remaining core compulsory troops, plastic breachers would fly off the shelves and a 5-strong Mk6 despoiler sprue (with more aggressive poses and chainswords + bolt pistols in place of the bolters/ chain bayonets) would be the same size as the current Mk6 one, and the command upgrade sprue for every 10 could easily be packed with special weapons given they wouldn't have need for the bayonets & holsters - then you could just provide a jump pack upgrade set akin to the heavy weapons ones to turn them into assault marines

Some great suggestions - and I'd have to echo the Troops/Infantry choices here. I'm really optimistic in seeing those 'core' units so that assault-orientated armies have plenty of options to choose from - I'd really like some Assault Marines for the conversion possibilities! 

The Sicarians from what we know about, Ive heard so many bad things about the resin kit that Ive avoided getting it for years (learned my lesson after ignoring Fire Raptor reviews).

As for wishlisting new stuff?

Legion-specific kits from FW, Praetors or Leviathans are always welcomed but it would be nice to see a new unit sculpt! Or maybe some love for the tiny range legions. I feel like the IH Levi is going to be particularly awesome...

As for plastic? Assault and breacher squads of any mark would make the hobby much cheaper, both are irksomely pricy and far too thematic to ignore. Some less laughably priced Jetbikes or a Storm Eagle/Fire Raptor that doesnt trigger rage to assemble would also be lovely!

The storm eagle/fire raptor. One of my friends got a fire raptor in resin about 7 years ago and it needed 3 replacements of one part from FW, and even after that a lot of bending, filing, greenstuffing. Swore I would never touch a resin one no matter how cool it is.

Ya my fire raptor took an entire pack of greenstuff. And I'm not even someone who has to have their joins seemless and filled in.

I am shuddering at the thought. I'm making a phobos LR now and there's a lot of gaps which are taking a while and driving me crazy, no way I could do a resin fire raptor. 

I must have gotten lucky with my Fire Raptor. I had to heat a lot of pieces to straighten them out but no serious gaps anywhere. That said, I still wouldn't buy another one until it's in plastic, I think.

Not even close to a primary concern for the Heresy range, but I'd like to see an upgrade kit for Blackshields when their rules come out, be it in WD or with a book. Other than that if a Despoiler box is made, I'd like to see a couple upgrade kits for Destroyers or Assault Squads.

I thought I had learned my lesson with forgeworld Krieg and Necrons but did buy some Dark Angels stuff, however I have also had super bad experiences with Forgeworld quality. I dont understand how their casts can be so bad when other 2rd party folks cast stuff in Resin very well. Forgeworld makes beautiful products, but they have abysmal quality control and casting.

If we ever get to that point - Blackshield upgrades I mean - we’ll know that we are truly in the promised land. 

 

 

* Plastic Tactical squads for mks.II and V.

* Plastic Assault squads in mk.II, mk.IV or mk.V.  

* Plastic Destroyer squads. 

* Plastic Bike squad, either jet or groundpounder variants.

* Plastic power armor Centurion/Praetor kit that allows you to build one out of several possible variants, kinda like the old Space Marine Commander kit.
