Games Workshop Reveals 12 New Warhammer 40,000 Miniatures in Introductory Set

3 articles · Updated · BoLS · Jul 10

Summary

  • Twelve all-new push-fit miniatures headline Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000 Introductory Set, which is now on pre-order and targets new players while offering fresh sculpts for existing armies.
  • The box pits 6 Space Marines against 6 Orks: a new Primaris Lieutenant and five Intercessors versus an Ork Nob and five Boyz, alongside cardstock terrain.
  • The Space Marine side includes the first Primaris Lieutenant of 11th edition and a newly posed five-man Intercessor squad designed to match the newer Armageddon aesthetic.
  • The Ork half adds a Nob with chainaxe and five Boyz carrying varied weapons, including options the Armageddon set appears to lack, making the box useful for expanding larger squads.
  • For now, the 12 sculpts are only available in the Introductory Set, with no confirmation yet on separate retail releases.
