Who is this Hector Rex cat? An Inquisitor? Or a GK?

**Cruentus**

Do GKs have that many =I= symbols on their armor and robes? I think the =I= on the tabard and on the box hanging from the belt definately put this in the "Inquisitor" camp. I don't know who Hector Rex is, but I'll be getting this one.

**BrookM**

Hector Rex is an Ordo Malleus Inquisitor Lord who approaches Marshall Kagori at the end of Imperial Armour 6, warning that the proverbial poopie is about to hit the proverbial fan. He then puts the entire 88th army under Inquisitorial mandate and we can all guess what happens next.

**H.B.M.C.**

Yeah I'm switching my vote to 'Inquisitor in Terminator Armour'. Pity it wasn't a Grey Knight Termy w/T-Hammer & S-Shield. FW would've made nice ones of those.

BYE

**Tacobake**

Maybe they will make them, anyway.

Pity? You make it sound as though a conversion would be much harder than a simple weapon swap.

**Tacobake**

those are one of the more difficult/ expensive simple conversions, due to the Storm Bolter and the general awesome of the GK termies.

**Balance**

The cloth looks more 'Inquisitor's Coat/robe' than it does "Space Marine Cape" to me, but i could be wrong. That makes me lean towards it being an Inquisitor.

**BrookM**

**captain.gordino**

Hee hee.

I also think your avatar is a little out of date Brook, after Jes Goodwin's statement. The part about DE I mean, not the penguin having a bad trip.

**Platuan4th**

I love what we can see of the pistol in the holster. This will probably be a must buy for me.

**Osbad**

Looks like hell to me. Lots of el-cheapo machine-produced stamped filigree detail.

One for me to miss I think.

It looks so bad that even Scibor could have done it!

**H.B.M.C.**

Scibor's stuff is awesome. There's nothing wrong with press-moulds.

BYE

**Ghost in the Darkness**

I has to be a spepcial character as I don't think rank and file dudes would all have swishy capes.

**Moloch**

....and No3:

Not bald, not screaming = Not a Space Marine. So there.

**BrookM**

Nice, I was expecting Hector to be bald and sport one of them fancy goatties with a small handlebar moustache, but this is even better.

**HungryTaz**

Here are the three parts combined...

**Agamemnon2**

Now that's just nice. The shoulder pads, the filigree, the little back icon. No question about it, this guy's armor is mastercrafted.

**Ghost in the Darkness**

Wow he's a fancy Inquisitor, that I would actually consider buying unlike the last guy.

**Death By Monkeys**

Nice model - not the most optimal of loadouts, but looks frickin' sweet. He'll be a good base for Belial conversions.

**BrookM**

Screw optimal loadouts for winning, FW is using something better: the cinematic angle.

**Platuan4th**

Yeah, this one's a buyer for me. Hopefully he's out before I have to move somewhere where I can't just up and drive to LA for the day whenever I feel like it.

**BrookM**

With this newsflash comes our last teaser picture of a forthcoming model for the New Year, which you can combine with the previous two to get a full picture of this impressive model. I can end the speculation and reveal it to be Inquisitor Lord Hector Rex, a powerful agent of the Holy Ordos who will feature prominently in our next Imperial Armour book. Although just to tease you further, the model will also be supplied with a set of three new retinue members! But that will have to wait until our next newsletter in the coming week.

**dienekes96**

I'll be excited to see the Retinue members. FW always goes suitably nuts with such background visuals (the DKoK QM retinue, for example).

These will be bought, regardless.

**Alpharius**

It is also going to ship with 3 retinue members, so, unless they are optional, any guesses on what the package price will be?

50£?

More?

**BrookM**

25 Pounds most likely yes, but this is FW so why act so surprised and shocked?

**InquisitorFabius**

Prob 50, all I know is I am buying one on release. If he manages to be Ordos Xenos like Lok, then I will love FW even more.

**Anung Un Rama**

I think we can be pretty sure that he's a Ordo Malleus Inquisitor with Vraks overrun by Chaos and all that.

**Deathmachine**

i said to my self that i wouldnt buy from forge world...but now i must.
