- heard that the Fellblade and Glaive are shifting to plastic (Falchion disappeared off the webstore in the last few days)
#Plastic Falchion / Glaive
split salmon
fluid thistle
I think this is coming the summer of 2025. Been hearing about this for months.
quiet schooner
This one is pretty likely to occur as they have been missing from the shop for a while now
knotty dawn
No glaive on the web site, either. The fellblade is still there but is "temporarily out of stock".
halcyon wadi
On the topic of removed models, the rapiers are gone as well
gleaming salmon
Speculation on the price? It’s got to be close, if not more that new knights
timber spire
Surely it would be similar to the Baneblade
which is kind of silly considering how much plastic is actually in the Baneblade kit, but that's not really how GW prices things
I guess Baneblade costs less than knights so who knows honestly

The Baneblade is super old. If it weren’t for all the options in one box I’d say it’s a pretty lame kit
timber spire
age never seems to factor much into pricing if at all
when did it come out originally anyway, like 2009?

I bought baneblade -- secondhand -- in 1998
timber spire
the current plastic one then
gritty venture
Unpopular opinion, Fellblade chassis is a waste of production resources, it's just a Baneblade with all the detail filed off. Make the effin T-hawk already.

no thanks, a plastic marine superheavy is infinitely more interesting than a flyer
weak geyser
IMO most superheavies are a waste of resources
The sprue space used to make one superheavy could make like two infantry kits to be sold
gritty venture
I would infinitely prefer core units covered for all factions before anyone got a superheavy... but that ship has sailed
quiet schooner
Superheavies do help to attract more attention to the setting and game
There is an... appeal in the market for large setpiece models at a more affordable price than resin

Why not both and only make 900 warcry kits instead of 1000 warcry kits that no one buys.

yes
centerpiece models as a whole do work
people want capstones or big projects for their armies if they're passionate about them
primal isle

Plastic storm eagle + fire raptor would be a great kit though...

no if I had to build that thing out of 4 bananas so does everyone else

This! I’d hazard a guess and say most serious 30k players would buy a kit given how cool they look as a centre piece model
