July 2026 Free Warhammer Mini
A pack of Fellgor raiders have taken over our Warhammer stores! Pop in and claim one during July, and there’s a special collectable coin available for people who claimed last month’s Armageddon-themed offering. This shaggy-furred Beastman is part of the Fellgor Ravagers kill team – a set of brutal, bestial warriors. What they lack in technology, they make up for with raw savagery and dedication to the Chaos Gods, charging headlong into battle with an assortment of rudimentary firearms and wicked, sharp blades. These miniatures will be available from Saturday... Read more...
June 2026 Free Warhammer Miniature
This month, a special Armageddon-themed collectable coin is up for grabs in your local Warhammer store to celebrate the new edition of Warhammer 40,000, while the miniature of the month is a Saurus Warrior. Saurus Warriors are the savage backbone of Seraphon armies, spawned for the express purpose of bulldozing enemy formations with a combination of strength and durability. Their tough hides are as effective as wrought armour while heavy clubs and spiked shields make them brutal in a brawl. These miniatures will be available while stocks last, and they... Read more...

April 2026 Free Warhammer Mini
You are cordially invited to your local Warhammer store from 4 April 2026 to pick up a Cryptguard from the Flesh-eater Courts and join April’s banquet. These ghouls have distinguished themselves through zealous devotion, and their lords have named them as bodyguards. Such a position comes with perks – better lairs, scraps thrown from the tables of the nobility, and even a certain level of respect from other serfs. The miniatures will be available while stocks last, and they may differ from the one pictured. Ask your local store staff how to... Read more...
February Grimdark Theme Vote Community Decision
February’s theme is officially up for vote, and this time the decision is being left entirely to the community. For February, the focus is St. Patrick’s Day–inspired Grimdark sci-fi, pulling from Irish folklore, gold, luck, and survival themes — reimagined through a dark, tabletop-ready lens. One of the following concepts will be selected and developed into a full February release. The current theme options include: Pot O’ Gold Lads — brutal, gold-laden Space Orc warbands who believe luck is loud and heavy Clurichaun Coin-Snatchers — goblin loot gangs who exist... Read more...

You can even pick up one of our free Miniatures of the Month while you’re there, and for February the hive fleets have descended to fill our stores with vicious little Termagants. These miniatures may vary from the one shown and will only be available while stocks last, so ask your local store staff how to... Read more...
The BW Terrain & Forge January 2026 Product Drop
The January 2026 BW Terrain & Forge release isn’t about balance updates or polite design. It’s about hard silhouettes, exposed intent, and models that look like they’ve already survived the war. Cyber samurai with skull-lined helms. Space knights wearing defiance like armor. Weapons that don’t look ceremonial... they look used. This is the kind of drop you would’ve seen teased in a grainy late-night trailer between action movies. A voice growls: “This winter… customization fights back.”No lore dump. No hand-holding. Just parts that hit the table and immediately tell your... Read more...
January 2026 Free Warhammer Mini
The new year is just around the corner, and the Warhammer store miniature of the month tradition is set to continue in 2026. From the 3rd of January you can purge your mind of heretical thoughts, receive the Omnissiah’s benediction, and add a Battleclade Servitor to your collection.  Rather than let their servants have pesky things such as free will (which often gets in the way of peak efficiency), Tech-Priests will frequently employ cadres of Battleclade Combat Servitors when undertaking critical missions. With specialised augmentations and weapons, and what little... Read more...
