No they don't. Forgeworld has never done a plastic model. Some Forgeworld models have been converted to plastic and sold as core GW products (Valkyrie, Trygon, etc) but they don't have any plastics.

Also I think those robits look good and I don't get what everyone's problem is with them.

My bad, I can' tell the difference between plastic and resin. For me it's plastic or metal.

I don't think they look bad - I'm just not a fan of the way GW is doing their flying aesthetic. Personally, I'd rather use a clear stem to give the illusion of flight.
I can understand that, but I'd rather have that than have little fiddly flying stems that snap when you look at them wrong.

I did see a thing on Beasts of War about leaked images of a 30k space marines plastic sprue. The speculation was that a 30k starter box is in the works. Further speculation would be that GW are looking for opportunities to significantly evolve their flagship product (40k) without alienating their customers by doing something ridiculous like axing their game and its decades of history and replacing it with a whole new game with tenuous links to the old one.

Yeah, I've seen the pictures of the sprues, they're floating around. Rumor is that GW's releasing a Heresy boxed game but you can just use those models for actual Horus Heresy games using Forgeworld's rules. I'd rather they do things like this to evolve the game or set up new specialist games than murder one of their flagships.

So this isn't terribly unspirationy, but it's very Hollismason-y, since it contains an actual animal skull and spine:


If it wasn't for the scrunts scampering all over the thing, I would have said it would fit right in the AoS aesthetic, but they would have to paint it red and gold, and add some lovely slabs of flat surface CAD sculpting artifacts.

Forgeworld will sell resin upgrades with a stock GW plastic kit which adds to the confusion. They don't make them, but you can buy their various Special Rhinos or whatever and you get a resin upgrade sprue with a GW plastic rhino.

It's as confirmed as GW gets, which is to say that the company won't say anything until the product actually comes out, or maybe a couple days before that. It's the usual rumormonger sites reporting it at this point. I'd personally put a lot more faith in this if they hadn't said that the same thing was supposed to happen back in May.

There have however, been sprues shown with models in Heresy armor, so it's either legit or very much an elaborate hoax.

Oh, I believe that the sprue exists, but we really don't know much more than that at this point. There's a lot of rumor about what rules go in and what exact models will be in and what not, but the real truth here is that GW is lovely at marketing and we won't know exactly what the product is until the first box gets opened.

It's going to be a standalone board-game, like the Assassins one, with minis that are usable in 30/40k

And it'll be limited edition, like Space Hulk

I like how with Space Hulk you could tell people were buying it just for the minis. Back with the release in 09(?) I tried to find a copy and eBay was loaded with miniatureless copies for $40-50.
