Captain Tycho is the bestest Marine special character still in production... (Naj Stormcaller got lost in the warp and nobody talks about Veteran Sgt Naman anymore.) He's got a really efficient wargear layout consisting of a combimelta and digilasers. His model may be over 10 years old (1997 release), but old = gold right? He's dead in the fluff, but seeing as that doesn't stop Eldrad from being in every battle, that shouldn't stop psycho Tycho either. He still commands top dollar, costing players more of their hard earned dollars than Shrike, Kantor, Sicarius, Khan and even oldtimers like Dante... rivaling that new up-and-comer Vulkan. Does GW know something we don't? Based on GW's pricing strategy, Tycho is going to be INSANE in the new book.

If you want to stay ahead of your peers - better buy three of him, so they can have pre-mauling Tycho, Post-Armageddon Nutter Tycho AND Death Company Tycho.

In all honesty, I do think Tycho has a really nice model, especially for how old the figure is. If you do the math, you actually save a few points on wargear. But dear god his rules couldn't be more of a joke.

My Blood Angels friend used him once, ever. I'm pretty sure he got killed by a demolisher or something. He was allied with Orks for the day.

You forgot the Dreadnaught ensconced Tycho.
