Today I purchased the 2008 Citadel miniatures catalogue. This is designed to replace the previously published Collectors Guides. In fact it is a return to the old format of the Citadel Annual a much loved publication that disappeared a good few years ago now. The boob is A4 in format and has over 400 glossy pages of the complete range of miniatures currently available, though as we speak the book is already out of date with the release of the new VC's in March. The main difference from the old Annuals is that all the miniatures are shown as painted items which is great eye candy for those of us that like to look at that sort of thing. Every miniature/ set has a product code so that individual models can still be bought. There is a separate price list booklet too and for the price of 8 pounds it is a pretty decent buy. Well done GW thumbs up on this one.

No I think that the price is pretty fair as they are not much more expensive than the old annuals used to be and they were mostly all in black and white.

yeah shame thy didnt add the new vc in there as i heard about them redoing them like 2-3 months ago and seems like there doing a mordheim box set which is in the book but with no price want but its not on the site its weird dunno whether to order it anyways but why the hell are they including specialist games when theyr not making any more after theyve sold them thats it.
found out that the new manager at my local store has banned all specialist games from the shop which is a bummer for people that are good friends that play bloodbowl epic etc realy peeved about that.

Got the book on Saturday and it is not bad. My only critiscm's are that they seem to be all old photo's and that the cheap paper used are all part of a cost cutting exercise.
