I liked the Spartan Games Dominion of Canada Wolfe class Medium Tank enough to start a DW DoC land force!

I believe these were released this year; Forge World's Mk II and Mk IV Apothecary Set

http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Space_Marines/Space_Marine-Infantry-and-Accessories/SPACE_MARINE_APOTHECARY_SET.html

If It was to be only one of them, I would have to nominate the Mk II

The special edition crimson fist from the beginning of the year, stunning recreation of the old cover.

Ajax the Great from Corvus Belli.

Dynamic, detailed, and matches his fluff perfectly.

[edit]changed because the Archangel is not actually out yet, just previewed!

Determined to illustrate the absurdity of having categories divided by material rather than model size/type, I nominate

http://privateerpress.com/files/products/71068_Mountain_KingWEB.jpg

I recommend viewing it with the 360 here:

Also has its own theme song:

Even though I ended up going with a different faction, the first model that sold me on Hawk Wargames' Dropzone Commander was their Neptune dropship:

http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0159/4298/products/Neptune-11.1_1024x1024.jpg?1176

What's amazing about a lot of these dropships is that they can be loaded with their cargo -- a little bit of magnetization, and you've got the dropships actually delivering their cargo. It's basically awesome. :D

Neptune Dropship - Hawk Wargames

Great looking model

What really gets me is that Hawk's models are 10mm scale. They have phenomenal fine detail, are from a brand-spankin' new studio, and just scream sci-fi. And seeing as humblefire's way too modest about his own amazing Neptunes:

Hawk Wargames - Neptune Medium Dropship

The Neptune is a fine example of the detail of the Dropzone Commander minis. It is like a cross between Japanese Anime and Terminator 2. I have four and will probably be getting more. They just cry out to be magnetised.
