Well apart from that Saruman all the other mini's are available as single model. Perhaps they just don't sell this box anymore and they think it's useless to keep it up. Perhaps we see the Saruman of the White Council becoming available as a single mini as well.

I don't think we'll get it but perhaps they'll make a plastic set? :?

One of the nice things about buying boxed compared to blisters is the packaging! I love the photo and simply opening the box, call me strange.
Also I keep all my old boxes.
The White Council is one of the best boxed sets GW has ever done, the sculps are fantastic and really inspire you to paint them that little bit better.

Totally agree! I keep all my boxes... hundreds of them now!

WC is the coolest set in LotR. I have two of them!

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat460003a&prodId=prod1060264&rootCatGameStyle=

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat460010a&prodId=prod1090085&rootCatGameStyle=
This doenst seem new either, though its a pity for sure! I think that model looks just great!

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat460010a&prodId=prod1130327&rootCatGameStyle=
Huh? Never noticed that before... But well they have the plastic set now...
