Have you seen the photograph of the new squat miniature making the rounds? It's a space dwarf in a space suit with a gretchin in a type of vice. What gives?

Happy Halloween from GW

Eh? It's an April's fools thing or something?

New or old, I think it's pretty cool!

It's a tarp!

The "brain trust" there at GeeW wondered what would be the best way to screw w/ the people on the interwebs. "Hey, lets make a Squat and see what happens. That would be fun!"

You can only buy it if you also buy a subscription to white dwarf... so pay $90+ for a bunch of sub-par magazine/catalogs.... I guess there is ebay.

Bears and environment suits don't really work together well, but it's a great model.

Lol..go general akbar! (I think that's his name). And the squat gives me nightmares =S

Admiral Akbar.

I think they really are just fething with people.

Its not a squat , its GW's White Dwarf in Squat costume.

Sort of like how Sophie is Reaper's holiday miniature mascot.

As it turns out its grombrindal in space...... or squats

I know it's the White Dwarf, but that doesn't change the fact that he's dressed up like a Squat. GW is fething with us for all the times we asked about Squats at Games Day!

Next year he'll be wearing a newly-designed Dark Eldar warrior helmet (for a kit that will never, ever come), just watch.

I hope he is wearing more than just the helmet. and not a gimp suit either

It's all good.

You silly silly, nerds..... The goblin is dressed up as a little grey martian... the white dwarf is dressed up in an old scuba suit.... thus the orange jump suit.... and the giant helmet on the floor.... thus, he's the undead seaman..... both are characters from old scary stories

I think he's wearing a space suit, not a deep diving suit. Plus he's wearing a suit design that I've seen with that Demiurg design before.

What about the White Dwarf riding a Zoat, or a diorama of him slaying a Fimir for next year

=][= You all must be purged!

Stop that, stop that right now. That's just plain silly, and now, for something completly different....
