Games Workshop 40K Release Timeline (Mk. II)
This is a list I’ve compiled (with help) of Games Workshop’s releases over the years, split by game system. I stress this is a work in progress; it is far from complete or comprehensive. It’s based on a mix of info from these forums, fellow forumites help and my White Dwarf collection.
There will I’m sure be errors: things mis-categorised as plastic/metal kits, models in the wrong month, and some just plain missing. If you can help out with further info to improve this it would be greatly appreciated 
Some guidelines for inclusion:
- Magazines, books, terrain, tools, paints and so on aren’t included: this is focused on models alone.
- Battle Forces and other boxed sets of armies generally don’t get included.
- Also no kits that are just combinations of other kits (e.g. 13th Company Storm Claws).
- I include it in brackets when a number of variants of one basic thing are done, e.g. if three goblin bosses are released it’s “Goblin Bosses (3)” rather than one entry for each. This usually only applies to leaders with different armaments and so on.
- I don’t include models released in starter sets except where they differ from existing models significantly.
I hope it might be an interesting or helpful resource for others. Many thanks to Tarax, Tae, Scryer in the Darkness, mrtn, gunmonkey, Ghudra, someone2040, Daniel36, coyote1066, Coach, MarcoSkoll, AsleepByDay, Sgt John Keel and ADF for all their help.
Red = Metal/Resin
Blue = Plastic
Note on *: I would like one day to give this a site of it's own, and as part of that I was to add images of models for easy identification. At the moment that project is firmly on hold for various reasons, but I'm still collecting images here and there. The asterisks mean I have an image for that thing.
