Grey Knights, Inquisitors, Psykers and Assassins first appeared in the Rogue Trader period. They were not a separate range as such but seemed to appear loosely grouped as part of the "Forces of the Imperium".

Around 2003, Games Workshop released the Daemonhunters range, loosely based around a core of Grey Knights, and the Witchhunters range, loosely based around a core of Sisters of Battle. These ranges included Inquisitors, Psykers and Assassins.

By 2006-7, the ranges had been regrouped with the bulk of the Inquisitors and other figures from the Daemonhumters and Witchhunters ranges then being grouped as part of the Grey Knights.

Rogue Trader Period

Grey Knights

Inquisitors

The first Inquisitor figure appeared in the Rogue Trader Part One Flyer - that figure subsequently became part of the Adventurers range. Another appeared in the same flyer as part of the Mercenaries range and that figure subsequently became part of the Forces of the Imperium range.

Two sets, each of 3 figures, appeared briefly in the Autumn 1989 trade catalogue but had disappeared by the time the 1991 Blue catalogue was published. Another figure appeared as part of the Forces of the Imperium in the same catalogue.

Two terminator Inquisitors also appeared in the Autumn 1989 Trade Catalogue.

Where figures appeared in the 1991 Blue Catalogue, the reference is shown.
