With over 40 years of history, Warhammer has been bringing people together for generations, and a big part of its appeal is that there’s something for everyone. Whether collecting and painting Warhammer models, battling it out in strategic tabletop skirmishes, or deep-diving into the lore through books, movies and TV, there’s a part of Warhammer that suits everyone.
Besides our love for airsoft, many of us at Surplus Store are also huge Warhammer fans, so we stock the models, miniatures and paints we’d want on our own hobby desks. Gear up and unleash your imagination with us!
Warhammer Games
For many people, the core of Warhammer is still the tabletop battles, and there are countless game styles to explore.
We stock rulebooks and starter sets for many of Warhammer’s most popular editions, including 40,000 (or 40K), Age of Sigmar and Horus Heresy. We also stock starter packs for specific game modes like Kill Team to expand your Warhammer experience.
If you prefer rank-and-flank fantasy battles, Warhammer: The Old World brings back the classic setting with its own armies and rules.
If you’re more of a story-based player, we also stock narrative decks, which can be an awesome way of bringing additional elements into your games.
Warhammer Models & Miniatures
While tabletop gaming is fun, many people truly build their love for Warhammer while hobbying – the building and painting of the game’s legendary miniatures. Whether you build by the book or love going wild with your figures, you can spend hours peacefully glueing and painting your creations.
We stock a vast range of popular Warhammer models and miniatures across various games, including 40K and Age of Sigmar. Our collection includes everything from one-off colossal figures to full armies with dozens of minis, and new releases and pre-orders are added regularly.
Warhammer Paints, Glues & Tools
Of course, no Warhammer model is complete without its paint job, and our extensive collection of paints gives you complete freedom to create your dream army. We stock all styles of Citadel paints, from Base and Layer to Contrast, Shade, Technical and Air paints, plus primers and sprays.

Warhammer FAQs
What do I need to start building Warhammer models?
To build Warhammer models, you’ll need a pair of clippers to remove parts from the frame, plastic glue and a hobby knife to tidy up any rough edges. To paint them, start with a primer spray, a brush and a few Citadel paints. A starter set is the easiest way to get everything you need in one box.
Are Warhammer models sold assembled or painted?
Most Warhammer models and miniatures come unassembled and unpainted, on plastic frames called sprues. Building and painting them is a big part of the hobby, and it lets you customise your army however you like.
What’s the difference between Warhammer 40K and Age of Sigmar?
Warhammer 40,000 is set in a grim sci-fi future, with armies like Space Marines, Orks and Necrons. Age of Sigmar is a high fantasy setting, with armies like Stormcast Eternals and Skaven. Both use Citadel miniatures and paints, so your tools and paints work for either game.
What’s the best Warhammer game for beginners?
If you want a smaller game with fewer models, Kill Team is a great place to start, because each side only needs a handful of miniatures. If you’d rather build a full army, a Warhammer 40K or Age of Sigmar starter set gives you two forces and the rules to play straight away.
Which paints do I need for Warhammer miniatures?
Most beginners start with a primer spray, a few Base paints for the main colours, a Shade paint to add depth and a Layer paint for highlights. Citadel Contrast paints are a quick alternative, because they add colour and shading in a single coat over a light primer.
Do you sell Warhammer books?
Yes. We stock Black Library novels and hardbacks, including Horus Heresy, 40K and Age of Sigmar stories, plus new releases on pre-order.
