"Pics of a Prototype Eldar Jetbike by Jes Goodwin" I don't know anything about this, except that I like the racing bike look better than the chopper pose of the current range. Courtesy of Warseer's DaCone:

I'm sorry, but was there a problem with the old Demonettes?

Yes. Unfortunately, they were only half naked.

Hell yes there was a problem with the old demonettes. The freaking arms would not stay on and you get tired of constantly re-glueing them. Too bad I will not be needing them for the new Chaos codex generic demon crap.

Whoah, that one demonchick is smoking a bong.

They are for the demon codex that might come out after the Ork codex.

Is that an Ork battle wagon in the background?

I love those jetbikes.

The jetbike is quite fantastic!!! I am sad for the sad excuses for jetbikes I have converted with new drivers now...

When do we get some??

Actually the square bases and the banner and musician show that they're most likely due for a WHFB release. Dark Elves maybe (fingers crossed)?

Thats the new ork TRUKK, actually.

Hm looking at the demonettes and the blood letter in the other topic it appears really like John Blanche's work was involved . I hope the Tzeentch demons do not share this fate cause I am no fan of cephalopods.

(double post dunno how that could happen)

So basically the point is is that I should start stocking up on the current models. amiright?

Brimstone:

Had the opportunity to speak to Jes (very nice guy and I owe him some biscuits) about the new eldar jetbike, it's a lovely model and he had a lot of plans for it with several variants planned (including a scout version IIRC)
The top panel is supposed to be a flip up targetting matrix and the engine and underside follow previous eldar models like the falcon.

That's some amazing stuff! I am really impressed with the daemonettes.

The jetbike is exactly what I was expecting when it was redone... Love it.

The Daemonettes... as nice as it might be to have plastic daemons, they appear to be a huge step backwards, sculpt-wise. The current sculpts are gorgeous. These are bland and thoroughly uninteresting.

Very interested in better pictures of the trukk, though...

The new daemonettes don't look bad per se - they're just nowhere near as amazing as the current ones.  I wonder if horrors are going to go back to being walking heads with giant hands?

I like the Daemonettes. They have a Slaves To Darkness feel to them.

I like the fact that the jetbikes have always been on a contiuum; you can see the progression from the old metals to the mid-90s plastics to these. They look updated, but not so different (also looks like they took some cues from the DE bikes, which is nice).

New Daemonettes: neat! [Insert snarky comment about being generic/only for fantasy here].

Jetbike - wOOt! that's gorgeous. I hope they come as a squad with an upgrade sprew for Shriekers etc.

Daemonettes - Where the f#*% are their nipples? Don't tell me GW is going soft coq in regards to Slannesh, it's Slannesh?! ...well at least their plastic O.o

Love the buggy ^.^ Waaagh!

I wasn't sold on the Reaver but looking through the B&C pics with decent close ups it's quite nice

wtf is with the naked goosebumpy Bloodletter?

Love the Juggernaught - cool as is, cool for conversions

GW could have just, you know, MOVED the nipples. It IS chaos, after all...

I like those new bikes, too bad I have a ton of old ones...

The daemonettes however are so static. I can't ever see why I'd want them over the current ones. Plus I HATE crabclaws.

Looks like the jetbike would be able to work for both Eldar and Dark Eldar.

Ozymandias, King of Kings

The new daemonettes aren't bad. Not bad at all. I still prefer the older ones (the ones we have now) though.

The new jetbikes however are pure unadulterated flying sex. I am trying to figure out if shining spears and warlocks would look better mounted on the new style or the old. I am leaning towards mounting shining spears and warlocks on the old style myself.

Its just seems awkward to me to hold a lance/singing spear in a forward slanted "Ninja" crotch rocket.

I am glad to see that these are confirmed with pics, as the rumour on warseer was fading for me as just a rumour.

Now I wont preorder the new jetbike box set for apocalypse and save for these instead. Very timely,and I am sure GW doesnt like that at all.

Those daemonettes are nice, though IMO the current metal ones are still lovely.  I do love the dopesmoker, I’d buy a box just to get that one.

 

First plastic Cadianadanians and now plastic daemons.  All that’s left to make fun of are dreams of plastic Valhallans.

 

Hadn’t thought of it, but yes, Eldar jetbikers should be in a racing crouch and not a cruiser lean.  The only thing is I can’t figure out how you would do a stoppie on a jetbike.

 

Which is why they’ll be released for the Daemon Legion codex.

The current metal damonettes are a huge part of why I did a Slannesh chaos army in the first place. These new ones don't move me nearly as much as those metal ones do. Although they are far and away better than the really old crab claw girls of yesteryear.

The new jet bike looks cool and its basic frame is perfect base for a modified Tau jet bike that I'd like to make one day, I might just pick one up. I'm really curious as to the ork vehicle in the background. I see what looks like a lot of plasticard, so it might just be a comverson rather than a real kit.

From what I know the Jetbike will not be out for some time.

Sorry to disappoint, guys............

(but it _does_ look fast, doesn`t it ?)

Unfortunately the plastic casting process doesn't allow for undercuts or nipples.

And look at the length of the tongue on that daemonette "musician" on the far right!  That's why you never kiss a daemonette unless you feel like reenacting the shower scene from Species.

Demonettes are highly meh. Current demonettes look light years better, and conversions from Dark Elf witches even better.

Bike looks good. Good cross to a DE bike, without overuse of buttcheek's disease.

Looks much more like a flying Katana, vs. a V2 Harley.
