So the Lego thing is down to Legos company policy. Since the main scope of Warhammer 40K is primarily in a perpetual war, it goes against the Lego policy of not promoting war. [Edit] Ole Kirk Christiansen himself stated that contemporary weapons and military machines that could be easily linked to on going conflicts would not feature in his toy range as he didn’t want warfare to seem like child’s play.
My favorite piece of Warhammer merch I own, is the The Imperial Infantryman's Handbook. It is THE in-universe handbook that each guard is require to have on their person at all time. And it is such a fun read, as imperial propaganda is on full display at all times, downplaying how strong an orc is and how to "easily" dispatch a Tau warrior from range and such. I'd love more in-universe books like this. Pehaps a few chapters of the Codex Astartes? A short field manual for Comissars? Or maybe a book from a Xenos race, a runtheard writing down some orc fables and stories? My personal white whale would be the whole Gotrek and Felix series printed to look like the actual book Felix published in-universe printed by the Altdorf press. I love that series, and the older books are in desperate need of a reprint.
Halloween is around the corner, keep an eye out for the skull decorations. I've made my own servoskull with one of them, he looks pretty awesome and they're fairly easy to make!
I work at a promo company with access to a laser printer, just last week I made myself a water bottle with a Warhammer meme on it to use at work. All of the clothing, puzzles, wallets and a quite a few other things you mentioned would be so easy to do even for a small promotional company. It’s sad they don’t put the effort in to make these ideas happen!
The “Warboss” book box set came with an ork themed bumper sticker that said “MY UVVA TRUKK IZ A BOOMDAKKA SNAZZWAGON” so they’ve at least made one bumper sticker. It was in a limited edition release of a novel and is sold out, but it’s something.
Back when I used to watch the Twitch streams and they'd sometimes have some of the Licensing team on to preview upcoming merch, their response to suggestions for merch from Chat was always that they (GW) have to be approached by merch manufacturers to discuss licensing proposals. It doesn't matter how 'obvious' a merch idea is to us, someone needs to say to GW that they want to make it and then sign a deal with them.
I did look into this to start making merch. While the C&D is a possible, it seems the best way to make it big is the WH partner program. They take a small cut of sales to promote your stuff - you do all the R&D and manufacturing, and they just add it to the marketing. They dont push it though, its purely based on people already being there for modelling stuff
Car magnets (in addition to the bumper stickers), a faction logo or a space marine helmet is something that I’m shocked GW hasn’t made with a licensed product
I'm an action figure collector. McFarlane did a bunch of figures, Bandai did a handful, and JoyToy has 1/18 scale covered. I would go through the roof if GW did a whole line of proper 1/12 scale figures.
A version of Ticket to Ride called Warrant of Trade where instead of routes across continents, you ply your way across the Galaxy, with some routes needing certain goods or resources (the coloured cards), and others representing the perils of the warp (tunnels and ferries). So instead of a long route from Madrid to Constantinople, you have to get from Necromunda to Macragge. Hell, I might make this for myself...
As a massive Blood Bowl fan, I would love branded merch like a spikey football, trophies, foam hands, caps, scarves, mugs, helmets, coasters, and football jackets. They would make such great prize support too for tournaments.
Something I've noticed is that there are very few themed tape measurers for tabletop gaming in general! It'd be a great opportunity for hobbyists to express their love for a faction by making themed tape measurers.
These are all fantastic ideas. You're probably right that Lego would never happen... I'm not saying that it'd be cheaper to field an army with Lego... but it probably would be, barely.
I’ve seen people run BattleTech games with LEGO mockups/proxies at various scales/sizes. It’s actually a fun challenge and splinter community for just about every IP, so GW might as well get a slice of it.
@@magnusmillerwilson You can slap together a huge lego board of buildings and streets for BattleTech Alpha Strike in no time flat and just really enjoy having some cool terrain to play on if you're not normally into the crafting side of things.
Guy to Hattie : I'm going to sit in this comfy chair and make a video about toys and stuff that i'd like GW to make. Whilst i'm doing that, could you just take apart the studio please? Thanks.
I believe in the 40K lore, they have their own game like chess called Regicide. They could just make an actual physical copy of the game they've described in their novels. Some companies have also branched into fantasy-branded coffee. Why not have GW do the same thing and make bags of Recaff available to sell.
I have a great idea. What about window screens. Those acordian shades you put in the front window of your car when you park. The new leviathan box cover would look great in the front window of my car. Nothing like seeing a terminator tyranid face staring out of your parked car!
I'd like a magazine with all the starships (like the Star Trek Starships Collection). Prepainted metal starships that you can even use to play Battlefleet Gothic 2.
A funny idea I thought of (maybe someone else has thought of it before) is a space marine drop pod stress ball. A drop pod you can spike like a football and it won't shatter into pieces.
completely agree Guy. One of the things I wish they did was trophies. It would be cool to have a set of trophies for tournaments, leagues and campaigns at clubs and between friends
I know bandai are a competitor but they've made action figures before with them so it'd be soo cool to have a hg gunpla range of tau and imperial nights.
Hmm... some others I can think of off the bat: - Tyrannid Infested World themed Ant Farms (or, Hive City themed ant farms) - Lasgun themed Laser Tag sets - Larger scale model kits (on par with other scale models, for example a 1/35 scale Squad or Marines and a Rhino) - 40K Themed Computer cases - Drones... there's plenty of flyers in 40K, how many people would buy up a tri-copter Valkyrie? - Furniture... What guy wouldn't love to have a literal Skull Throne? Or how many would like a desk themed to look like something from a planetary governor? - Working Firearm accessories (a bit controversial I know, but do remember that many people do use these things for sport, and this is the target demographic). From Imperial Guard holosights, to Tau-themed scopes, and maybe even themed holsters and pouches. - "Working" Xenos weapons. Akin to a Light Saber, how many would find it cool to have a Tau Pulse Rifle or Carbine? Or how about a Gauss Flayer? Or a Eldar Shuriken Catapult? - Airsoft AEGs... the sheer number of possibilities here are endless. Both in terms or Imperial weapons and Xenos. - "Bio Samples". Basically a form of paperweight, you could have things like the tooth from a Hormigant or the tooth from an Ork suspended in acrylic, and all inside a case themed around and Order Xenos containment vessel. - An Apothecary Medical kit (chainfist sold separately). I know it gets into the realm of what Guy talked about with bags, but who here wouldn't want a first-aid kit themed around the ones issued to the Astartes or the Militarum? Especially around our hobby area... - Getting into Cosplay territory... how about an actual Kasrkin respirator? A lot of people do work with resin and spray paint in this hobby... who wouldn't want to look like a badass while doing it? Those are just a few ideas I can come up with. Some might not go over well, but I think the others would do well.
All of these are fantastic options. My personal favorite are Nerf bolters because I can just imagine the in-home Nerf battles with my kids. My son recently picked Blood Angels as his army. Best of luck with the move!
If they go the Lego route, I hope they DO NOT go the generic Lego figures that you see like in the Lego games and movies. Those are too boring and too restrictive in movement. Instead, I hope they go for the Lego figurines that are the "Halo Legos" style (as I've dubbed it, because IDK what it's called, exactly), as they have ball-joint connections, and their limbs can actually turn from side to side, up and down, and even diagonal, and are easy to pop back on, should they come off! *NOTE: The Halo one is done by MEGA CONSTRUX!*
Man I’d kill for some warhammer dresses, they’d go great with my custom warhammer heels. I will say one thing I think they could do is earrings. I’ve made a few extra minis into earrings and I get comments on them almost every time I wear them.
I actually suggest 40K Nerf guns during a livestream with the Products Dept during the early part of lockdown and he was very taken with the idea so you never know, something might already be in the works, remember, these products (especially toys) can take years of design and testing before we see them. Oh, and Guyver... my first, and favourite, anime series. I even sat through the less than brilliant US movie versions. Would love to see a modern revival.
With a Warhammer 40k movie or TV series in the works, with everyone's favourite Witcher, it feels ever so slightly more possible that we could see Lego space marines.
Going for the basic here... patches. Between the actual chapters, or race specific, the squadron numbers, purity seals, the different guards Corps, names if they get into "made to order"... they would them by the truck load!
Problem with the large sculptures, it would probably be made by Forged World. "Why do the laurels on my Roboute Guilliman sculpt make it look like he has 60's sideburns?" 🤣
I've talked about this before with friends, when I look for merchandise I'm really not looking for just "has the brand logo on there". I love your bag suggestions because they feel diagetic, especially that guard messenger bag.
yeah, i think having the logo on there probably got mixed up with "name brand" stuff at some point. By that i mean merchandise people saw people were buying pants that simply had a logo on it saying a name for a 100 dollars so they thought that is what people wanted and that is why it is so prevalent. That is the only reason i can think of for cheap merchandise like that other than the cheapness i guess. just having a logo and nothing special is just lame merchandise imo.
YES on the women's clothing and fragrances as well as the replica weapons! I was so disappointed to learn those leggings and dresses were discontinued, as I didn’t learn they existed until after they were no longer being made. And Warhammer perfume names would probably all be funny responses to "You smell nice- is that a new perfume you're wearing?" As for the replica weapons, i just think a power sword would look nice on my wall.
Well that was a weird ad but to give my two cents about the topic. I think the Nerv gun idea great. On replica I would by a Ork Choppa or the OG Warhammer Ghal Maraz for sure!
Have you seen those little kids riding in mini cars, and thought: Wow those are cool? I hope by the time I have kids they can be riding in a Land Raider.
It is absolutely mind-boggling that we haven't had an actual 40k movie or series yet, animated or otherwise. 40k is such a rich and deep setting, I can't imagine it would be that challenging to create a grounded, well-written story in the setting even without involving the more edgelord-grimdark aspects of the setting.
For board games there’s two that come to mind, Godzilla Tokyo clash a deck based mini fighting game would fit perfect in the 40k setting and who wouldn’t love to see Godzilla and a titan or even a ork gargant fighting, the second is one is unmatched another deck based mini fighter would be perfect as they did crossovers with marvel
As a german (paused) Rammstein Fan i must tell you - we dont show this in public anymore, the current situation around till and the hidden "party" rooms under the stage is a bit shitty right now
I SO WANT NECKLACES, so badly I made my own from the lasgun key chain and a spair necklace. Looks good actually. Also bags are such a good thing, nice bags are so underrated. Loving the vids btw MWM!❤
I have several of the knock-off Lego space marine mini-figures from the White Scars, Imperial Fists, Dark Angel and Ultramarine legions/chapters, and I love them. They come with a cool variety of weapons (bolters, heavy bolters, plasma guns, chain swords, etc.). Lots of fun.
I feel like the main reason a lot of these haven't happened yet is because they haven't had a big successful movie. I feel like once they do, they will have broken into mainstream awareness, and will then start pushing non-game merch hard. I don't know when that will be though.
I think this is putting the cart before the horse. There are far less established brands that still sell loads of merch. Warhammer definitely has the brand recognition and audience to be monetized in this fashion. It just seems like Games Workshop only have the will to go halfway on this.
There was a Guyver tv anime that came out in the late 00s, early teens called Guyver The Bioboosted Armor. As far as I know, it didn't get a western release, but there's probably clips floating around on the interwebs.
I don't know if these count, but there are Warhammer-themed jigsaw puzzles, or at least there used to be. They were released in the late eighties, early nineties with the Hero Quest extensions. I have the Return of the Witchlord and Kellar's Keep. The classic art is awesome, and I confirm, fun for the whole family. And an excellent way to make your kids discover the universe early on...
Dark Angels tie bar. Purity seal magnets. Official wax seal presses. Chess set is a must. Bar or pub ware glass tumblers coasters decanters. Wall decorations like how they did the taneth wall hanger but for like every faction.
Believe it or not but back in the day when Citadel, Games Workshop and Marauder were all brands apart there was a catalogue of GW swords, the golden demon one appeared there alongside elvish and barbarian swords. Cant recall the brand but it was one of the catalogues we drooled on in our modest games club
Do a Transformers collab: -a landraider turning into an Ultramarine -a Looted Wagon turning into an Ork -a Helldrake turning into a Night Lord -a Hammerhead turning into a XV8 Just look at the Archecore line by Toys Alliance: change the main color to a light blue/grey and you already have Space Wolves transformers... AND THEY LOOK AWESOME! Heck, you remember those old TMNT toys that turned from pre-mutation to post-mutation? Do pre-to-post heresy primarchs! If LEGO doesn't want to cooperate, I'm pretty sure that Megablock is still on the market and their Halo sets still sell like bread. How about Servo-backpack? Ripper swarm water flask? Nurgle gut fanny pack? Tau drone parasols and, well, ACTUAL DRONES?
There's a company called Raven Armoury and I think they did some Warhammer items back in the late 80s/early 90s, like Crux Terminatus belt buckles and things like that. Can't remember if they did any weapons, but swords were their primary thing so probably 😅
Being a gundam builder, I would love to see some warhammer model kits. Bandai have already released some 40k action figures, so the next step shouldn't be that difficult in making an articulated model of a space marine....
Let’s get some Helmets! Not just different Space Marine Helmets, but also Cadian Helmets, Custodes Helmets, Ork Buckets. I think that’d be really cool.
i personally would love a dreadnought plushy. oddly enough my buddy made a chess set for 40k and he used pre existing models and painted them and everything it looks really cool
I just want a Power Klaw shaped bottle opener. [cries in ork]
YESSSS
That would be waaaghsome!!
Perfect for orktoberfest

How an 1 hour before anyone else
Um. Star Wars.
Lego also as a STAR WARS licence. They don't go near 20th and 21st century warfare, Sci-Fi / fantasy warfare seems generally okay though.
Mega construx could work instead, they do halo
That is true, but they do have star wars Legos too
The perfume is definitely the most needed suggestion on this list, as anyone who ever walked into a hobby store or convention can testify
I would buy "Heresy pour Homme". Black and Gold bottle would look nice ;-)
Let’s hope they don’t capture that “essence” in a bottle…
You would need a full body care kit to go with it, like the Christmas Boss gift sets.

For board games i really want a 40k trivial pursuit
0:40 - Wow, Hatty, this dress suits you so much! Very elegant!
A Nurgle themed version of the game _Plague Inc._ would be neat😎
Guyver definitely doesnt get enough love!
Wonder if a lego warhammer cross over would be to violent for lego to seriously consider doing.
As a german (paused) Rammstein Fan i must tell you - we dont show this in public anymore, the current situation around till and the hidden "party" rooms under the stage is a bit shitty right now
I SO WANT NECKLACES, so badly I made my own from the lasgun key chain and a spair necklace. Looks good actually.
Also bags are such a good thing, nice bags are so underrated.
Loving the vids btw MWM!❤
I have several of the knock-off Lego space marine mini-figures from the White Scars, Imperial Fists, Dark Angel and Ultramarine legions/chapters, and I love them. They come with a cool variety of weapons (bolters, heavy bolters, plasma guns, chain swords, etc.). Lots of fun.
For jewelry as you say I'd love an inquisition earring or a pair, would look lovely
I feel like the main reason a lot of these haven't happened yet is because they haven't had a big successful movie. I feel like once they do, they will have broken into mainstream awareness, and will then start pushing non-game merch hard. I don't know when that will be though.
I think this is putting the cart before the horse. There are far less established brands that still sell loads of merch. Warhammer definitely has the brand recognition and audience to be monetized in this fashion. It just seems like Games Workshop only have the will to go halfway on this.
There was a Guyver tv anime that came out in the late 00s, early teens called Guyver The Bioboosted Armor. As far as I know, it didn't get a western release, but there's probably clips floating around on the interwebs.
I don't know if these count, but there are Warhammer-themed jigsaw puzzles, or at least there used to be. They were released in the late eighties, early nineties with the Hero Quest extensions. I have the Return of the Witchlord and Kellar's Keep. The classic art is awesome, and I confirm, fun for the whole family. And an excellent way to make your kids discover the universe early on...
GW Leipzig has a nerf bowltergun
"Honk for Heresy" don't know why I found that so funny, nearly spat out my pot noodle....
Dark Angels tie bar. Purity seal magnets. Official wax seal presses. Chess set is a must. Bar or pub ware glass tumblers coasters decanters. Wall decorations like how they did the taneth wall hanger but for like every faction.
Well done putting out such an interesting video while moving studio.
Winter gear like Valhallan snow hats and overcoats! Or Beast Snagga swimwear!
I d love to wear warhammer themed earrings / piercing , just imagine having like chaos insignia hanging from your ears
OMG Those bumpersticker ideas!!! ROFLMAO XD thx for "Honk for Heresy" XD may the Emperor's Light always guide you to success!
They used to make jewellery back in the late 90s/early 00s! I used to have Dark Angels and Crux Terminatus pendants.
Purity seals everywhere! Fridge magnets, pins and stickers.
You missed out crochet patterns.. so Nanny could make a nice hat or cuddly toy!
Believe it or not but back in the day when Citadel, Games Workshop and Marauder were all brands apart there was a catalogue of GW swords, the golden demon one appeared there alongside elvish and barbarian swords. Cant recall the brand but it was one of the catalogues we drooled on in our modest games club
My history teacher had a 40k eagle tattoo, and one time at a beach a guy came up to him and was like “Albania! Good, very good”
Do a Transformers collab:
-a landraider turning into an Ultramarine
-a Looted Wagon turning into an Ork
-a Helldrake turning into a Night Lord
-a Hammerhead turning into a XV8
Just look at the Archecore line by Toys Alliance: change the main color to a light blue/grey and you already have Space Wolves transformers... AND THEY LOOK AWESOME!
Heck, you remember those old TMNT toys that turned from pre-mutation to post-mutation? Do pre-to-post heresy primarchs!
If LEGO doesn't want to cooperate, I'm pretty sure that Megablock is still on the market and their Halo sets still sell like bread.
How about Servo-backpack? Ripper swarm water flask? Nurgle gut fanny pack? Tau drone parasols and, well, ACTUAL DRONES?
Also, that sound you made at Jar Jar's fugly mug easily made me laugh till my eyes fell out,Guy!
Most of these are solid suggestions, but wallets? You know we don't have money after buying our armies
"Do you follow the Codex Astartes this closely" Ngl that cracked me up
Imagine a trazyn's gallery display piece. Or and Imotekh one.
There's a company called Raven Armoury and I think they did some Warhammer items back in the late 80s/early 90s, like Crux Terminatus belt buckles and things like that. Can't remember if they did any weapons, but swords were their primary thing so probably 😅
A little Ghal Maraz to put on my desk and bonk things with would be excellent
Sculptures and weapons replicas would indeed be amazing as a larger scale warhammer decoration!
Bedsheets- and I’m not talking about the silly pillow cases either. I want the DoW:DC cover art as a comforter.
Being a gundam builder, I would love to see some warhammer model kits. Bandai have already released some 40k action figures, so the next step shouldn't be that difficult in making an articulated model of a space marine....
Let’s get some Helmets! Not just different Space Marine Helmets, but also Cadian Helmets, Custodes Helmets, Ork Buckets. I think that’d be really cool.
i personally would love a dreadnought plushy. oddly enough my buddy made a chess set for 40k and he used pre existing models and painted them and everything it looks really cool
As someone who does BJJ, I'd love them to do a range of rashguards and sport t-shirts.
same! I have a few tank tops for the gym with fanart designs, but higher-quality athletic wear would be fantastic.
I justo recalled 30 years ago I bought one hockey sweater from Chaos Team. It was awesome, but couldnt find It again.
