* Like many older models, they have been removed from production and Games Workshop Mail Order but are widely available online through second hand sources. The '''Praetorians''' were reasonably popular, largely due to the highly distinctive look of their armies and the sharp contrast between them and the dark, gothic Imperium around them. As such, many people were angered at Games Workshop's decision to drop the range.
* '''Praetorian Guard''' share the same bodies sculpt models as the [[Mordian Iron Guard]] miniatures, only the heads and paintjob set them appart.
*The Praetorian XXIV was first featured in a [[White Dwarf 217 (UK)]] (January 1998) advert, pg 60-61, as a Limited Edition Boxed set, following the success of the "Massacre at Big Toof River" diorama set up during the 1997 UK Games Day.
