Where did that one originate? I knew it as the bolter and chainsword leak, so I'm guessing here. phandaal 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I found the ones I was thinking of: https://natfka.blogspot.com/2021/12/updated-rumor-1109-compilation-40k.html?m=1 If you scroll to the very bottom there's a set of leaks from 'Juggernut' which now sound well off. AT being squatted, no chance of (what we now know as Legions Imperialism) happening etc. There's a lot of other leaks on that page though that were spot on at a cursory glance.

The Praetorian of Inwit Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Just because things are out of stock on the GW website doesn't men they are selling well. It depends on how many GW are manufacturing. LI could be out of stock because of minuscule production runs not overwhelming demand. I don't know why people are so against the idea of GW leaking things themselves. You are all aware that multi-national corporations do do this and GW being based in the UK doesn't make them an exception. I'm not saying they are doing it, just that it would be foolish to categorically rule it out. After the AoS debacle it should be obious that just because you have models in plastic, or a part of a well known and popular faction, that you are safe. If it isn't selling GW will axe it. It is very feasible that they may look to cut models that aren't selling so they can manufacture greater quantities of those that are. These are likely just fake but all of them could be plausible if you actually think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By no metric can you claim something is not selling well if you sell out your entire run. Under production does not equal poor sales. skylerboodie, ZeroWolf, Noserenda and 5 others 1 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroWolf Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Even if they made limited quantities, GW will still see it selling out as a success. Not a success would be producing limited quantities and having plenty left. Robbienw and ThaneOfTas 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter how big the production run was though, it literally couldn't have sold better if they sold out the stock. Whether they made a small production run or a big one, it means it matched their expectations at the very least. And I doubt they'd estimate extremely low (you'd think they'd estimate their products to be a success rather than commit to something they don't expect will sell in the first place) and then only make that exact amount of stock and no more.

Even in 40k take Votann vs og Squats, whose only thing in common is being Dwarves in Space. Or maybe the 'leaker' made it up and it's perfectly curated Bait Edited April 11 by The Scorpion ThaneOfTas, phandaal, DemonGSides and 1 other 2 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Shepherd Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Am not sure where to find the exact breakdown again but when people say shareholders want this and that; something like 93% of the shares are owned by less than a dozen hedgefunds/investment houses Once profits stay increasing Id say they require very little placating or interfere very little They like things in reports like new revenue stream opened up, Amazon this, licensing deal that, W+ subscribers increased, 7m visitors a month to warcom etc Cactus, Felix Antipodes, ZeroWolf and 1 other 2 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised they didn't include re-releasing Primaris marines at a larger scale and rewriting them to be all-female in their bogus list, just to complete the rogue's gallery of 40k boogeymen.
