I wonder if we will ever see this range return? In the last few years every Specialist Games IP except for Necromunda and Warmaster got video game releases (Can't wait for the BFG game!) - GW is obviously still at least thinking about them and holding on to the licenses. With 3d printing technology possibly removing the prohibitive cost of making molds, I wonder if we'll ever see them return in a direct only way. For example digital only rulebooks, and print on demand direct only models.
Just a thought, but it seems like skirmish, space battle and 10/12mm wargaming is making a comeback.

It definitely would be interesting to see. I love me some Necromunda, and Mordheim was solid enough. Wasn't a big fan of Epic or Warmaster, but that's just me. I never got into BFG, but I think that's because my only interest at the time was CSM, and their ships all looked exactly the same.
I'd definitely give them all another go. Especially Necromunda. I have 3 gangs all painted in Word Bearers cultist colours, since they make excellent cultists.

The only thing I love about GW now is their defunct specialist games.
I had three fleets (two fully painted) for BFG. I have two gangs for Necromunda. I have warbands for Mordheim. I have more Blood Bowl teams than I can honestly remember (nearly 12). I even had a large portion of the Inquisitor range.
However, I doubt they'll do anything in a miniature format. I think they're just holding on to the licenses so they can sell them out to companies who are busy turning them into computer games.
I've been enjoying each Blood Bowl expansion that Cyanide has put out - and been looking forward to the next one.
I even bought the Mordheim game on Steam even though its only in a beta-type format.
I would certainly be interested in a BFG game. That was a really good system.

I'm planning on grabbing Mordheim at some point and the same with BFG once it's out.
I had a lot of fun with the tabletop versions of both.
I'd love to see the models come back since I'd like to have a couple fleets/warbands for each to pull out from time to time for a break from 40k
