Hmm .. for my first bike-nerd observation, those big things on the front of the engine look like induction for super-chargers. Fething awesome, I love that someone has put such thought into it beyond the aesthetic.

There's a tournament in Granada towards the end of the month which will have CB staff in attendance. That's where April's 'huge news' is expected to be announced.

Except you currently have that exact issue with the extensions anyways, they're ALREADY oblong bases. Just count the base as the shorter length, since a TAG on a 40mmx70mm pill/oval base could sidestep through a doorway, exactly like they do right now since the extensions get in the way.
People do scenic bases all the time. And some models even come with bases that are much larger than they normally would be, like the Sapper Moblot, the Cateran Sniper, and that other Ariadna guy with the HMG on a big base... can't remember what they're called.
EDIT - ZOUAVE! AHA! Finally. Thanks brain.

From what someone on the Spanish forum said, Interruptor and Bostria basically flatout said "from the 26th to the 28th" is when they want to announce the news. Does that tournament fall under those dates?
Genuinely asking, I don't follow the tournament dates.

Good if the smoke launchers don't have to be included... kinda clunky, looks like they robbed them off a spesh mahreen to me... which means they probably look ww 1-2 era.
Everything else is stellar though, very nice.

The tournament is on Saturday 26th. It takes place in a gaming-comic-nerdy stuff-con running both Saturday and Sunday 27th.
Almost 80 players. I can barely find one in my city

Yeah.... I had my wife ask after Infinity at the gamestore about an hour south where she works on occasion, and they thought she was talking about the Disney Infinity thing... at a gamestore! Facepalm, no love for Infinity within an hours drive, at least, the other gamestore is the same.

Google Smoke Launchers and check out the images GW copied them from modern tanks. Of course.
Anyway, next week is Santa Semana, and CB will have reduced staff. I'd guess that we won't get any more news until the Granada tournament, although, maybe some more previews of minis right before it, so as to not interfere with the big news...

Well, even if that's what current smoke launchers look like... this is Infinity and it's set in the future, those just look too chunky for my taste is all. If they're actually accurate to modern technology, I guess it's a bit better, but I wouldn't put them on myself. But I'm more inclined towards Aragatos anyway.
@Bobbafett Infinity movie, teehee. The RPG or video game could be cool though.

The sad thing is that I know of at least one major game studio that has a decent number of Infinity players in the company and a potential interest in developing a video game based upon Infinity, but they consider Corvus Belli too much of an unknown quantity when it comes to the creative license that the developers would get when creating a game.

The movie? I would cast Megan Fox as the ADHL Chasseur ( or chasseuse), or the Caledonian LGL volunteer, to be honest.
The video game... sounds intriguing. But most likely not happening... yet. The news, it'll be about an upcoming release, like the next book or new sectorials.

I've put my first Bolts together and found them somehow more cumbersome, problematic fitting and less elegant compared to certain older models, not to mention the scale difference between them. Overall quality of them feels sloppy and rushed, not beating around the bush. Remarkable what difference the finishing touch of a brush can make.
I'm definitely interested in how well the new sculpts will be. It might not be a bad idea to purchase an older model, if you prefer older aesthetic.
It's usual for an 3D sculpt to loose sharpness, i agree that the new bolt are inferior in quality for an infinity standard
let just hope that they will do only 3D sculpt for line troops and TAG ...
those biker might be not 3D sculpt but "traditionnal sculpt"

I thought everything was a 3D sculpt and wasn't suffering because of it? I mean the motat resculpts are amazing.

The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that.
