Battleforce boxes are back after their successes since 2020. These are a fantastic way to get into a new army or even add to an existing one, but what’s inside them and what is the saving?
Well Warhammer Community have announced that they are coming back for 2025!
(If you’re looking for the 2025 – Age of Sigmar – it is here!)
Prices in 2024 were around £150 each so with the October price rise, I expect these to be £160 each (Updare, they are £155 each). In the meantime I thought our readers would like to know the value of the toys… so see below against each box:
| Battleforce Boxset | Cost | RRP |
| Emperor’s Children – Blissbound Warband | £224.00 | £160.00 (Est) |
| Voltann – Cthonian Prospect | £227.50 | £160.00 (Est) |
| Tyranids – Crusher Stampede | £219.00 | £160.00 (Est) |
| T’au – Farsight Cadre | £211.00 | £160.00 (Est) |
| Space Marines – Iron Halo Strike Force | £223.50 | £160.00 (Est) |
| Chaos Space Marines Hellforged Warband | £217.50 | £160.00 (Est) |
| Astra Militarum – Krieg Siege Platoon | £204.00 | £160.00 (Est) |
There’s a range of value in each box with Krieg having the lowest value; which considering the Space Marines includes a half-set in theirs is a little disappointing.
Meanwhile the latest Daemon Primarch gets to bring along some of his mates, and the Tyranids leave all their little guys behind.
I may pick up the Astra Militarum, but it will definitely hurt my Woepoints pledge, and a lot depends on that final RRP which we will update when we know.
These are best ordered from your FLGS especially if they can get them in, and make a few pounds, dollars, euros from them in the expensive Christmas period.
Alternatively, if you regularly use Element Games, you can pick them up there… using our affiliate link (for which we receive a small contribution to the site)
