Redone, or a new weapon sprue added? Remember that making plastic moulds isn't what you'd describe as 'cheap'. If they're re-cutting it just to add new stuff, it might be cheaper to make a new 'weapon' sprue that gives a bunch more weapons, maybe an extra sarcophagus or two, and the basic Dread stays as is. It'd be a bit like when they added the new (now gone) accessory sprue to all the previous Guard vehicles. It would also allow them to jack up the price, and we know how much GW loves excuses to raise prices!!!

What an odd question. I'd suspect that you don't have to put them on in the first place.

In all seriousness, I'm pretty sure I could use that chibihawk as a proxy predator or something if I tore the wings off

I am finding my self agreeing with Kan. DA need something to make them unique and interesting. Other wise you could just play C:SM with mostly plasma guns.

Back on Topic, Dose anyone know if they are going to have all the weapon options in the StormRaven kit. Or just how many sprues there are?

Dreadnought is good .

Chibihawk is...cute. And little. Almost makes me want to pet it. No, who am I kidding. It still looks goofy.

I'm starting to think that a) this isn't him, or b) He's dead.
If it was him and he's reading this, surely he could POST SOME MORE PICS!!!
That or surely he hasn't been reading the requests of just about everyone on here.
POST SOME SIDE AND REAR PICTURES ALREADY!!!

He never actually said it's "his own model". He said that "it's in his hands" and that it's "his photos, but don't ask how I got them".

Neither did I. Just clearing up for some other folks.

Hope he's not a GW employee, this could well cost him his job. I may or may not be speaking from the same thing almost happening to me.

Doesn't look like a GW store, maybe an FLGS?

Ugh, just realized. GW is more savy than we anticipated. They are using viral marketing on us and we didn't see it. Some chap in headquarters wouldn't be standing out in the opening holding this stuff taking pics without permission.

I'm just a spod that used to work for them, who wound up on the Managers Course instead of opting for redundancy, winding up redundant after I promptly failed said course!

I'm no one special! Promise!

Actually it might not be the GW Head Office.

And hey, lay off Jervis! Was jammy enough to have him host an imromptu seminar all about 8th Edition Fantasy this year. Once I'd finished suffering from my Bugman's Curry (seriously hot!) I hightailed it to the gaming hall just in time!

He's a good bloke!

Why the feth does this deserve termination, that's what I want to know. If anything the stormraven pic helps them, because their real blunder a couple months ago had everyone burying the model before it was even released. The more angles we get the better.

He's a good bloke!


Oh yeah, he's all well and good...when he isn't ruining your armies by making them bland, boring, and uncompetitive.

Nothing is going to change how awful that StormRaven looks. I will laugh hysterically the first time I see one on the table.
