Spikey Bits reported on November 10 that the US price of the Blood Angels Angelus Assault Force, one of Games Workshop's Christmas battleforces, has dropped from $255 to $210 on GW's November 2 retailer pricing sheet, with no models removed. According to Spikey Bits, the Canadian price moved from $310 to $250 in the same revision. Games Workshop has not published prices or dates for the box and has not commented on the change.

Spikey Bits says it compared two copies of the November 2 sheet that went to stores with GW's retailer email that day. The earlier copy listed the box at $255 US and $310 Canadian, matching the other 40K Christmas battleforces. A later copy of the same file showed $210 and $250. Spikey Bits says GW sent no correction or new sheet, so a shop that downloaded the file early may still show $255.

Reported prices

Spikey Bits says the US and Canadian figures come straight from GW's revised sheet, and that international retailers confirmed the rest:

  • United States: $210
  • Canada: $250
  • United Kingdom: £125
  • European Union: €160
  • Australia: $222
  • New Zealand: $266
  • Japan: ¥19,800
  • South Korea: ₩270,000

Spikey Bits also says the Angelus Assault Force is the only 40K Christmas battleforce whose price moved, and the other 40K boxes remain at $255.

Auspex Tactics reported an unconfirmed $210 North American price in a November 5 video, which our box-by-box guide to the Christmas 2026 battleforces noted at the time. Both outlets now put the US price at $210. They differ on Canada: Spikey Bits reports $250, while Auspex Tactics reported CA$255.

What's in the box

Warhammer Community revealed the Angelus Assault Force on October 19 with these contents:

  • Commander Dante
  • Blood Angels Chaplain with Jump Pack
  • Death Company Brutalis Dreadnought
  • 3 Sanguinary Guard
  • 5 Death Company Marines with Jump Packs
  • Blood Angels Upgrade Frame

Still unclear

GW said the boxes would be "available for pre-order soon" but hasn't given prices or dates. Earlier Spikey Bits reporting, citing the November 2 retailer email, put pre-orders on Saturday, November 14, with release on November 27.

Spikey Bits frames the cut as a response to hobbyist complaints about the box's value at $255, though it writes that it can't prove the complaints caused it. Games Workshop hasn't said why the price changed.
