Helen Smallridge, Games Workshop’s global head of marketing even reflected on Warhammer’s long presence in British culture.
“We’re delighted to be partnering with Royal Mail to mark the 40th anniversary”, she said. “From humble beginnings, Warhammer has grown into a British institution and a global success, with our fantasy miniatures collected by millions around the world.”
Warhammer has grown immensely in the 40 years since its inception- the IP itself is split across boardgames, videogames and even streaming series, all built around the settings of The Old World, Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40K.
The company even has Warhammer World, a massive facility in Nottingham celebrating the brand.
