It looks like we know where the extra Assault cannon on the DA sprue is going...and its not on the terminators.

**Toreador**

Damn fantastic. Love them all. Though I was hoping that the jet bike would hearken back to the old days, this one is awesome. Must buy all....

**Sgt_Scruffy**

Dark Angels are looking very good. These are some of the best marines GW has released in a while. Is that a searchlight on the other side of the speeder landspeeder?

**insaniak**

That Librarian is so very much better than the Power Armoured ones... The books on his shoulder pad and on his back are far too chunky, but other than that, I'm liking that even more than the Terminator Captain, which was one of my favorite GW models so far.

Jetbike looks interesting, but I think a better pic is required for any sort of real evaluation. Speeder... yeah, it's a speeder. No real excitement there, just a new-style assault cannon and some DA icons.

**winterman**

Very very nice.

That terminator librarian is sweet and especialy the stance (which many scuplts have faltered on of late). Now I have to decide whether to replace my converted one for this one.

The Ravenwing master is a very nice model. Too bad I'll never play Dark Angels as that is a new favorite.

**syr8766**

Termie Lib is very nice, much less static than the old one, and way less 'fat man suit' than the PA ones. Also liking the MOTRW
(my guess is that this will be the aspect of the DA that will benefit most from the 'dex)
What's new about the LS other than the iconography on the top (barely visable)? Hopefully it has new
'don't need 50 rubber bands and gap-filling super glue to put together' action.

**Schepp himself**

Wow, this is a poseresque Jetbike...I mean with all this capery flying around.
Other than that, it's nice to see some rather new styled models for Space Marines.

Fantastic Librarian and Lord on Jetbike. The Land Speeder looks, well, like the current Landspeeder with a different assault cannon.

These are shaping up to be the best looking Space Marine models for 4th edition so far.

**Brother Tiberius**

Now that I've seen the "new" jetbike, it gives me an idea to do some kitbashing with the plastic Imperial Cruiser kits from BFG. You could make as good, if not better a jet bike, with a nifty armored prow at a cost of about 4 for $30, maybe less if you get a deal on the cruisers. They'd probably look a bit more like speeder bikes from Return of the Jedi though...

**Zubbiefish**

That's a few points in GWs favour.
I like all of that. Except the HUGE books. HUGE, Huge or huge would have been fine. Those are overkill.

**carmachu**

OK, I know what I'm buying. That terminator librarian rocks.

**Ghaz**

That Terminator Librarian will make a good Malleus Inquisitor in Terminator Armor.

**malfred**

I think my brother would like the Master of the Ravenwing for his birthday.

Fixed your typo.

**Jester**

Dude, Dio was just screaming "Holy Diver" on the Hi-Fi when I scrolled to the pic of the Terminator Libarian. I must have it.

The MoTRW is kind of cool, and the Land Speeder how has KC high-lites on its rollbar, apparently.

**Lowinor**

Really nice-looking models.

I love everything about that library except the shoulder pads and backbook. Both are far too chunky. His shoulder pads are a large as his torso!

And as far as the assault cannon on the DA sprue goes- that wouldn't be the one they were talking about. The new landspeeder is supposed to come with all the parts to make it a typhoon OR a tornado right on the sprue.

The assault cannon on the generic DA sprue was indicated that it would be for the termies.

**The Crawling Chaos**

Great stuff. The only thing I'm not crazy about is the Librarians book, but if it's a seperate bit, then it's a nonissue. I'd just leave it off. Very cool.

**BaconSlayer**

I can't decide which the Terminator Librarian reminds me of more; Arnim Zola or MODOK.

Actually Drake, they just assumed it was for the termies. No one said that there was a termie arm attached to it.

If you think about it, if DW are only getting one heavy weapon per squad, why in the world would they give two assault cannons? Besides having DA iconography on it, of course.

No, I am certain that this is the mythological second assault cannon rumour.

**Kid_Kyoto**

Someone MUST model that librarian with a Watcher standing on his shoulder so can read the big open book.

**redstripe**

So when did we decide to give Imperials back their jetbikes?

**Gabe**

Well, you see, Sammael got tired of his Harley, and he just happened to have the last BMW Jetbike in his garage, so he said "Why not? The panises shouldn't be the only ones to have jetbikes..."

Add flowy cape for epic...ness.

'don't need 50 rubber bands and gap-filling super glue to put together' action.

It's all plastic.

Don't hold your breath on better construction, though... I would assume it will be just the current Landspeeder, with an extra sprue with the new plastic weapons.

**chuckyhol**

I planned to buy the new empire. Looks like DA are getting my money now though.

Hell, theyre basically giving them away on some merchant palaces on Crowe's world!

You must have missed the After-Thor's-day-sale...

Yeah no kidding. GW sells the current crappily built but awesome looking speeder quite well with the rules they have nowadays.

Why spend more money when these are "great"?

**davidson**

Well it looks like the rumor of an underslung plasma cannon/weapon on the Master of the Ravenwing was true. That should be interesting?

**hammerofulric**

The only new bits on the speeder are the DA icons and PLASTIC assault cannon. I don't know if the assault cannon is part of a new LS sprue or the new DA sprue.

**KiMonarrez**

Peronally, I think the MotRW model looks WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too busy for my taste. The librarian I like though. Big book and all.

**hammerofulric**

The pics have gone. Have we killed your photo account?
