I don't wear anything outside my work outfit and band t-shirts, yet I'd wear a Necron symbol one if it were made available, no questions asked.

There's the DM Magos who has a wolf skull head, so probably DarkMech.

I've always wondered the lack of merchandise with GW. They run a relatively well-known IP that's ripe for selling out á la George Lucas, yet the only thing we get is coffee mugs based on.. Citadel colors?

I'm just imagining that conversation at the GW HQ.. "Let's see.. we could jump on the merch bandwagon, like, could put out a few coffee mugs.. what should we put on them? Space Marines? Sigmarines? Some of the cool SM Chapter logos? Primarchs? The Imperial aquila? Evil Necrons or savage Ork stuff? Bolters and chainswords? No, wait.. I think I got it.. how about.. coffee mugs about PAINT COLORS! Yeah that's where it's at! And after that, we'll put out some T-shirts featuring the classic Citadel Mould Line Scraper - maybe in hot pink!"

They sell shirts on spreadshirt, although they don't advertise it...

At the prices that the coffee mugs are, they'd have to be 6-color process with awesome artwork, and then you'd never use them for fear of rubbing off the awesome artwork. I don't really think the mugs would sell any better if they said Ultramarines and Blood Angels instead of Maccragge Blue and Mephiston Red

It can also be equipped with a phosphex mortar, which is a barrage weapon and therefore unusable in Zones Mortalis. It is definitely intended as a siege unit and not as a Zones Mortalis unit as the other Dreadnoughts are (especially the Castraferrum pattern).

Wouldn't it have the option to direct fire like most barrage weapons?

The not selling T-Shrts either in their stores nor on the webpage is the one thing that has alwys puzzled me......go figure

I'm not a fan of the new shirts, they look a bit like Affliction shirts that used to be fashionable with MMA fans a while ago.

Always amazed me that they don't do an annual print run of shirts, bags, and dice every Christmas for the main factions. Keep it true limited edition so they aren't left with a ton of stock and can keep the margin high.

They could always just open pre-orders and just print the exact number they need too if they're worried about excess and storage.

Going barefoot and commando... nice! You must live in a warm climate. I do like the Alpha Legion t-shirt. Is the hydra eating the aquila a new design theme for them or something that has been around for a while? I know obviously about the hydra but it's the first time I've seen that combo persoanlly.

Yeah, it's new design, I haven't seen it before. I am not sure it will go mainstream though, it could be just one-off.

This Mk VI armour spotted on Forgeworld - I've not seen that before. New Resin Legion Mk VI armour incoming perhaps? Or just a plastic one I don't remember seeing

That MKII helmet isn't a combination I'd seen before either.

Oh and check out the purity seal on the MKVI marine ( lower leg, his right) - FW doesn't do those on heresy era models, do they? I thought PS were a post-heresy thing anyway, or did UM dabble in those in M.30?
It does look molded on (see how it drapes over the foot) but it looks a little too neatly/sharply undercut to be plastic, though that might be a combination of the paintjob and a favourable angle, of course.

Its probably a kit bash.

And the Mk2 helm i believe is the DA upgrade kit as is the shoulder pads.

Which pair of mkVI legs comes with that rather crisp purity seal and those studs high up on the greaves though? Honest question; I really haven't purchased a single 40k plastic kit in three or four years so I might have missed something, but the latter is something I hadn't seen anywhere yet.

I know you can get a full set of Mk. VI in plastic from the tactical marine box. Not sure if the seal is from there, mine are all built and dispersed to the shelf.

I think they're just from the tactical box yeah. There's a few pairs of MkVI legs in there and at least one has those studs, can't make out from the photo if it has the purity seal too but I'm guessing that's where it's from.

Yup those are the legs from new Tactical box. The sergeant has those legs on the front of the box.

Okay, thanks. Apologies for the out of date speculation

I think the purity seals in 30k are basically just Oaths of Moment instead.

Looks like the IA8 dredd mob download is gone from the FW site. Unless I'm just missing it.

That could be a good or bad sign =)

I still see the update for the Dredd mob list:

I don't see it on the download page on the site though. I went to look to see if any new FW erratas appeared.

New errata for Badab in the works hopefully

That Red Scorpion set is a pretty good deal, though rather bland.

What are those bits at the bottom of the scorpion vanguard set?

That Damocles is the worst put-together kit I've seen on FW's site :-(

It also doesn't seem to have an interior like the 40k version, very disappointing, I'll be sticking with my 40k version.

They're bits of the jump packs.
