Note: does not contain re-releases, non-miniature products or the miniature range with codes below 2xxx
Note: contains only boxes that are currently NOT in mass production, expect release beginning in june 2013 at the earliest, the bulk of the releases for the first movie are done by then
Note: leaked before the announcement of the third movie, unknown if this is accounted for
Note: not every release has to be based on the movie, Games Workshop has released miniatures before that were omitted by PJ, like Glorfindel, Elladan & Elrohir, and so on

So only boxes, so no blisters or book. But as there are two dual kits included it is probably going to be a codex release going by the recent patter nof GW releases.

I always told myself, if they ever do multi-part plastic Sisters, I'mma bring that army back with a vengeance!

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

I think EVERYONE has said that dude. I, for one, love the Sororitas.

My mate Ben plays them, they really hate my Necrons.

seeing as they already have a quite new codex, it could just be more of the additional WD units they like recently, rather than a full codex.

Doubtful, 4 plastic kits including two dual kits and five resins kits is a codex sized release, not a White Dwarf addition size release.

That codex wasn't so much a codex as more a filler of two copies of WD... Don't get me wrong I built my Sisters army on the back of that and love them to death. But a proper codex and bolstering of the units would be a beeyootiful thing indeed....

[SotonShades]

Seems long enough since the WD codex for sisters to get their own. How long was it between the Blood Angels WD 'dex and the full book?

[eldargal]

A few years I think, but the gap between the WD WoC book was around one year. Certainly no reason to assume it is too early for a new Codex or SoB, and given the size of the release there is little doubt it indicates a new book in my opinion. Assuming the rumours are accurate, of course.

[Verilance]

also if true a seraphim dual kit with an "unknown" unit (Patronica Squad) at least not known to me

[eldargal]

Patronica is new to me also, which should mean it is new full stop.
