Just checking my emails and saw this from GW:

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Hobby-filled New Year
As 2009 draws to a close, it's worth remembering what a hobby-packed year it has been. It was a year that brought us: new Orks and the incredible Stompa; reinforcements for The Empire and a plastic Steam Tank; War of The Ring and a whole new way to game in Middle-earth; the Planetstrike expansion and a host of towering scenery sets, new Imperial Guard and the hugely popular Valkyrie; Codex: Space Wolves and brand-new Space Wolves miniatures; a new range of Skaven; and of course Space Hulk.

And if you thought that 2009 was a year beyond compare, then you just wait till next year! Here's a sneak peek at some of the stunning sets you can expect to see in 2010:

And it links to here: http://gwutil.com/2010_en.htm?utm_source=nepreview2010&utm_medium=email&utm_term=preview&utm_content=textlinkbody&utm_campaign=NE-Preview-2010

Looking at the size of what I assume is a burna on the right side of the pic, it looks about dread size. That and there is what appears to be a CCW on the other side of it.

And Merry Christmas.

Edit for fail link.

**LunaHound**

You are absolutely right.
and that minotaur is GOOD!

im excited!

**H.B.M.C.**

Aww! The Fellbeast is smiling!

And yeah, if that's a Dread, HOL-EE-***. That's awesome.

**LunaHound**

The deff dred... anyone else think Gurren Lagann beastman mecha?

**Wrexasaur**

Is linking the pics from GW a no-no?

Anyway, that Ork thing looks sweet as all scalding-plasma-hot hell.

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

I have no idea what that is, so no in my case.

Liking the Minotaur, well, what we can see of it. And the Deff Dredd is clearly WIN.

**warpcrafter**

I suddenly have this image of the Fellbeast panting and wagging its tail in joy because it got to stick its head out of the car window on the way to the photo shoot.

**Aduro**

If anyone were going to punch a hole thru time and space, it would be the Orks, because they believe in their fighting spirit.

**thesilverback**

Oh no, I havn't got all the Orks I want yet and not a new Dread. But from the looks of it, I will for sure need one.

**Redemption**

Well the picture link actually has Deff Dread in the URL, so I'm pretty certain it is one.

**Morathi's Darkest Sin**

Awesome, will be picking up that Deff Dread for sure, will go nicely with the one Mrs MDS is constructing me for Christmas.

Oh and aye, whats the Witch King thinking, Fellbeast crossed with Labrador is just not going get the extra dps he was looking for.

**H.B.M.C.**

Well that wasn't very clever of them was it. The URL should have 'Blue Harvest' or 'BBLRB6.0_real' or something equally as meaningless in there.

I am so glad I'm not the only person who sees that.

**em_en_oh_pee**

Nice Dread! Great find!!

**Sidstyler**

...great find? It was e-mailed to everyone who signed up for the GW newsletter!

LunaHound wrote:The deff dred... anyone else think Gurren Lagann beastman mecha?

It's a face with arms and legs, so yeah.

Does anyone know where I could get some drills that a re a good size for DCCWs?

**Captain Solon**

sounds awesome.

**El Cacique**

Dios mio, the orks get a new dreg and I'm still waiting for my Chaos plastic dreg. Why.... why......

**MeanGreenStompa**

Because when Chaossss innnnn Spaaaacccceeeee is redone, they'll get a total overhaul.

GW is tidying up the Ork range and they've been crying out for new dreds and kans.

I think this model is looking absolutely bloody lovely from just that one pic. I hope it sits well alongside the FW megadred.

**Sarigar**

Holy cow!! I'm digging the preview for the new Deff Dred. Very, very cool. Now, if we get Killa Kanz to match, I definitely feel my Orks getting another reboot. Right now, I'm thinking if running 3-4 Deff Dreads is even worth it in the army.

GW: We need Killa Kanz to match!

**MeanGreenStompa**

Fell Beast looks like Odie...

**Tim the Biovore**

Why does that Fellbeast suddenly remind me of Canis Wolfborn's Thunderwolf? With that cute expression and all, despite the fact we know it is a vicious creature.

**Spartacusbob**

Plastic deffdread... best xmas news yet

I'm very pleased to see that it looks like it took all its design queues from the mega-dread on forgeworld

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Perhaps it's the other way around, who can tell? Certainly I reckon a plastic kit has a longer work up time than a resin one, especially with the mould stuff.

Either way, I say again, WIN!

**MajorTom11**

kinda looks like a plastic mega armored nob to me....

**jackvolerich**

This is very good news indeed.

Unless GW is being clever (all of a sudden!), this:

**warboss**

i can't see the fell beast. is it under all the new line trademark and logo info/fineprint? wait... if i stare at the pic long enough... i think i see the boat!

**Cryonicleech**

...

I guess I'm the only one here who still loves the old Dreads.

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

And on the linkage naming, the Fantasy one is indeed a Doombull, the Character version of a Minotaur.
