The Magos is amazing. The sisters are... mediocre, what the hell is going on with those ugly jumppacks. They just scream "Look female Sigmarines" instead of SoB.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! Why did I have to spend so much money on Space Marines! Quick to eBay for liquidating funds for plastic sisters. I doubted and seek forgiveness.

The Jump Packs look to be of the same design as the ones on the metal models...

Yep, look identical to the current seraphim packs.

Now I've been baned a few time for mocking Sisters but I'm very pleased for you all. These look sweet.

That Technomagi will be the base for many many 30k AdMech models for me. Perfect timing GW.

Grab a picture of the existing Seraphim models. The Jump Packs are identical and the added wings are more based on the 30K Raven Guard Corax/Dark Fury wings than the Stormcast ones.
The poses and contact points to the base are an obvious nod to Prosecutors but other than that...Stormcasts these are not.

Could this be an alternate build from the Seraphim box? Either make regular Seraphim with a Sister Superior, or build a Living Saint and a new melee-armed bodyguard unit. Would explain them sharing a colourscheme with the Saint.

Also, someone needs to phototshop those Sisters with a regular black & red colourscheme so people stop with this "Sigmarine" nonsense just because they're gold.

Yep, they're near identical to the current metal models, size notwithstanding (little hard to judge without a comparison). Which is fantastic, because the biggest fear I had with a plastic Sororitas range was them changing the style away from the metal models so they wouldn't "fit in" next to each other on the table. My current sizeable Sister Army is looking forward to receiving reinforcements!

The jumppacks might be identical, they still look ugly imho.

The old Celestine is a better sculpt to.

Sweet monkey tuesday! Those are awesome . Glad to see Adepta Sororitas getting a (long overdue) overhaul . Looks like there's some Stormcast Eternal design elements in there- a la Prosecutors- with the scrollwork trailing on to the base (that's it though, really)

We're not even sure if it *is* Celestine. While it's very likely, it could also just be a Seraphim Superior.

Wow! That Magos is a horrible miniature. Looks like someone covered it in glue and dropped it in a bits box.

The Sisters look quite nice. It's good that the SoB players finally get some love.

Given the bare left hand releasing the doves, the winged kneepads, the roses around her sword's crossguard and the halo behind her it is definitely St. Celestine.

So the fact Celestine is getting a new model but isn't in Codex: IA pretty much confirms a new sisters Codex right?

A bit damn mean to rinse people for old metals then release new plastics the following month. And double dip for Codex too. GW can't do much wrong lately but this feels disingenuous (and I'm not even a SoB player).

Same here. I do like the magos, but I couldn't care less for the female sigmarines.
I do however like the fact that sister players finally get new models. It might just be enough to keep them from hijacking inq related threads in the future.
