Hello again, and welcome to the latest issue of the Forge World Newsletter.
In this issue I`ve got lots of photos of one of the next Death Korps of Krieg infantry units, complete this time, not just individual figures. We also have a very, very late release. Something rather special, a bit of a surprise, and possibly a last minute purchase for Christmas. Take a look below.
Thx,

Available NOW! - Giant Bloodthirster Head
This model is big. Very BIG. I just measured the horns and it was 15 inches/380mm across and the complete head weighs about 6.5 pounds/3 kilos! We usually take photos of big models with another model next to it to help show the scale. You’ll all have seen Paul`s brave/foolhardy Empire Champion facing up to Daemons and Dragons in newsletters past. Strangely, this time he was nowhere to be seen! I was forced to stand in and take his place, trying to show how huge this magnificent piece of work actually is. Hopefully I have done him proud.
So who made such an imposing model? Who else other than the designer and sculptor of the original Forge World Warhammer and 40K Bloodthirster, Daniel Cockersell.
Daniel has faithfully re-created the hellish features of the Bloodthirster, greatest of Khorne's servants, in even finer detail than before, with the model exuding the Blood God's rage and never-ending thirst for blood.
It would take very little work on your part to mount the head of this beast on a suitable plaque or similar so it can be hung from the wall. A couple of screws through the mounting board into the back of the neck and you’re done. (I took a moment to think about it the other night after seeing the Bloodthirster head complete for the first time. I have a place on my hobby-room wall in mind already.)
We are starting to hand-cast the first Giant Bloodthirster Heads over the next day or two and we should have some ready for sending out, all being well, early next week. Any mail orders placed for one, (or more!) Giant Bloodthirster Heads for Christmas presents will have them shipped out by UPS Express or Royal Mail Special Delivery automatically at no extra cost. We know this is a bit last minute, but this model is more than a bit gorgeous, and if there is any chance whatsoever of getting it to you in time for Christmas, we’ll try our best!
Want one? Give myself, or any of the rest of the guys here, a quick call to check availability and where you are in the waiting list

Preview - Death Korps of Krieg Infantry Squad at Ease
You may have seen some of this next unit of Death Korps of Krieg already. We took a few to a couple of shows we were working at last month and Alan showed a few figures from this forthcoming release in Newsletter #159 a few weeks ago. `Squad at Ease` are quite unusual in that they are just that! Gone are the more common `martial` poses that we are all used to, and in their place we have some models that are just crying out to be bought and painted, regardless of whether you have a Death Korps force or not.
The squad is made up of ten bodies with specially matched sets of arms and weapons, all of which combine to make a rather different and very characterful unit which would be perfectly at home either in dioramas or Golden Demon vignettes, or on the gaming table as part of a fighting force of Death Korps. My own favourite in the set is the trooper fixing a combat blade to his lasgun.
The Death Korps of Krieg Infantry Squad at Ease set will be another of Forge World’s rapidly growing force of Death Korps due for release in January. They should be available to pre-order in the next few weeks so watch your inbox for more Forge World Newsletters!
