Got me to thinking, all the trailing warpfumes on the plague censer and the dynamic poses... It's all looking alot like the rackham metals were, have there been any rackham folks move over to GW following the conversion of rackham to plastic?

True the new stuff looks a bit crazy, and i mean really wierd. Makes you wonderhow rats build all this. But I wouldnt know i don't play skaven.

Gotta say I am liking it, dynamic poses and whispy bits of magic flying off things looks great.

Yeah the new skaven is absolutely lovely. Very dynamic and impressive.

I don't play Fantasy anymore, and when I did I didn't play Skaven, but glimpsing thru the FLGS' preview codex, I saw the fig for Headtaker Queek and knew I had to have it to use for Something. I think he's destined to be a Counts As Epidemius.

I'm not too keen on having smoke and such molded right onto the models. It makes it harder to use those kits for conversions. For example, that huge smoke-trailing ball on the Plague Engine or whatever it's called, won't ever look right unless mounted as a pendulum.

I see your point, but I really like it for THAT sculpt.

It also made me want to do a Ku'gath conversion too.
