I think they will. The process is going to be gradual, though. We might expect a plastic release of a TAG when a sectorial using it goes through a refresh. I guess that's when CB expects significant sales of the model, warranting investing in molds and enough copies of it from thier subcontractor doing the models (as unicool models are made outside of CB's own facility - contrary to metal and siocast ones). So, while I'd love to see, for example, a 3rd gen Maghariba sculpt (or even 2nd gen re-release in plastic), I wouldn't expect to see that earlier than when Haqq / RTF hits the spotlight.
It shouldnt. CB stated that all tags will be made in Unicool. That's plastic resin. Products that say thermoplastic are made in Siocast
My local online shop still has not deliverd my Adepticon ISS bundle - "waiting for new delivery date from CB" - whats up with this sets? They did not produce enough? Delivery should be end of april, now we have may 11th already! I know some people have it already - some even got it early, direct from CB - which makes the sitation more sad, because it looks like they give it away early but have not enough stock for delivery to the retialers.
It is worth mentioning that preview pages have been known to have wrong material information in the past.
Since the Long Wan is in Unicool, if your shop is in the US, there might be a chance it got flagged by customs due to tariffs and then either the shop paid or didn't paid, hence why the delay.
My warcore buddy said CB is going to be doing old TAGs in plastic as well as the new ones. The price of metal is high. I would guess weight of shipping too but that's only my guess.
My warcor here says the opposite, no old tags in plastic and it seems Koni confirmed somewhere (dont know if discord or warcors chat) that the blue wolf being plastic is an errata
It doesn't matter apparently, someone received the new ITS Pack (which includes mini produced in China) directly ordered from CB and it got flagged nonetheless because of the "Country of production", adding an extra 150$ on receipt. So, who knows...
My understanding at that time was : All tags will made a transition from metal in the long turn but it will be made when a new sculpt is released. As new molding process requires a new mold, it makes perfect sense to use the transition to provide a new pose/version of the tag and vice versa. Based on this logic, I was a bit sceptical about the Blue Wolf not still being metal. Added to that, the description on Warsenal mentioned explicitly "repack".
I guess we will find out soon enough. For them they need to weigh the price of of the metal vs. the price of tariffs. At least to the US.

Corvus Belli is running a survey with a potential 10% discount on its shop if you're interested. This is a survey to tell them your book preferences. Post: https://www.facebook.com/corvusbell...yvkFqjqoqVofJXA8bALneL7wHizCoC9EFzxKqknUmFfYl
Some of the questions seem to indicate that they're wondering whether they shouldn't make some sort of codex for each nation, and it would be a good thing if they were even definitive codexes, whatever the editions, perhaps that would solve my need for space when faced with the accumulation of books that are 80% recycling and don't include all the previous ones, which means they have to be kept. There are also answers about exploring humour in comics, and given that I've put together 9 pdf volumes of 150-250 pages and that there are 14 pdfs planned for fanmade content recapitulated, I think there's plenty funny fans authors, and I'll be a customer for a physical print. They could sell books on the comics of adhadh, alexandernevsky, tomato, andriil,... There are already a dozen fan authors who are professional cartoonists and who have already produced dozens of pages that they can sell. Bostria could go from ambassador and photographer to cartoonist, instead of doing it in his spare time he could be paid to do it.

Not sure about Codexes. I want a game that is not ripping off a rip off. Or copying a copy. The Army app is a codex of sorts. The problem with having a separate faction and sectorial book, is that when changes are made to profiles, the old booklet is out of use. I would have to purchase the newest edition. I like the fact the CB has decided to use the digital space as it was originally intended, to cut down paper and waste. Both the digital rules, Army app, and Comlog, are great tools for Infinity. Making and selling books, while is a sound business strategy, defeats the purpose of making things digital anyway. We can still use the army app without internet connection if things go bad. I do not see the point of transferring pre-existing information from digital to solid. It would just increase CB's expenditure. Lore books however, may appeal to the customer base that values a game for its fictional content. That would make sense.
