I couldn't see this mentioned in the news section anywhere. Apologies if I missed it:
A new set of boxed sets are being released on the 25th feb., offering a saving of nearly £10, which is nice to see. Otherwise not terribly exciting stuff, as its just reboxing. Interesting to see no Tau or Eldar box there though.
Space Marines & Drop Pod
Imperial Guard Cadians & Chimera
Chaos Space Marines & Chaos Rhino
Ork Boyz & Trukk
[edit]: Updated with the date of release.

Didn't we have something simmilar some years ago? It was Space Marines + Rhino back then, if I remember correctly.
Nifty, should make putting together an army a bit more affordable.
In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only British.

Yes, similar boxes already existed, though these are designed to stay, afaik.
We both read the rumour, day and night,
but you read black where I read white.
(After someone claimed he was Phill Kelly) The real Phil Kelly would know how to spell his first name correctly.
Is there a link? I looked on the GW site and couldn't see anything. Or do you mean that they will go up for pre-order on Friday evening?
I was thinking of buying a Chimera this week so this could be a better way to go (I'm assuming it's 10 Cadian's that will come with it?)
I guess the Elysians just don't like to pump the rear.
Any news on whether there will be an eldar box? The last time they did this, the eldar was was pretty nifty, with 5 dire avengers in along with a wave serpent
how much will it be? 30 quid?
I believe there was also a Falcon + 8 Guardians box at one point. I remember people derping about how 2 of the guys couldn't fit inside.
Of all the threads in all the forums in all the world you had to post into this one.
Not sure I see why GW would bother with this, but it would certainly be useful. For too long I have been buying the squads and never the transports to put them in and my lists normally suffer as a result.
And I wouldn't read too much into the lack of Eldar or Tau considering there are also no Dark Eldar who by all accounts don't need a new wave of anything... and certain SM chapters might be better off with their own box, namely GK have their own models and I would have thought would prefer a Razorback (can they even take drop pods? I can't remember).
Then again, I'm new so correct me if I'm wrong ;-)
Does this mean the Fire Warriors with Devilfish, for example, won't be returning with this bunch?
Marines/Chaos - £35.
Others - £30
Also theres a note stating it is only avilable to retailers, and in a limited run. I suspect that it may be available to mail order people too though. GW have never done a retailer only release to the best of my knowledge.
Oh, also, the new necron battleforce. Which I'm sure was mentioned by someone before now, so isn't news.
Where are these rummors coming from ?
My inbox...
Is the Marine set Tac Squad + Pod or Combat Squad + Pod (like the Razorback kit was)?
If only the marine one was a tactical squad+razorback. GW must have a lot of drop pods gathering dust.
The IG one looks great though.
xxRavenxx is a store owner, so he will have recieved this info so he knows what he can order to sell.
11 figure box.
All are, except the orks who are 12.
I cannot tell you if it is a tactical squad proper (Though I suspect it is) or two combat squad sprues.
I'm also a Chapter Master, which is a prestigious title bestowed on those who have slightly more free time than everyone else :P
That's welcome news, the combat squad kit makes me a sad panda!
Thanks for that news. Are you sure the C/SM are 11 Marines and the transport...?
Anyway, I hope those will be available to online distributors, or otherwise there still won't be any saving in there.
He said they were 11 models total i.e. 10 Marines plus the Transport
Cheers for the info Raven, that Guard set is quite tempting.
