I'm blind I think or HB sees pics I don't because I can't see the new Broodlord up close.
If he is better looking than the other 'stealers I might just say "Hell with the cell phone bill" on wednesday

He's the fella with the big head and chunkier armour doing the krane kick pose on a pile of GRIMDARK skulls.
Not to be confused with the stealer dangling from the GRIMDARK doorframe.

Ordered my copy, but can't help feeling a bit let down. i love Space Hulk, but after the rumour mill i was hoping for something new!
Odds on how long before the non-"limited edition" is released? i can't see a limited run making enough profit.

At AUD$165 a pop, I can see it costing that much.
Anyway, got mine from the UK. After shipping it will cost the same as the Aussie one without shipping - so it gets delivered to me, and I don't have to fight over people at my local GW for it... or if I really like the box, pop up and buy another.

Who'd want to sell me theirs?

Well I ordered mine. Might have to sell off the FW BA termi pads I have as it looks as if those will be doing double duty. Now to see if GW can get it to me, I have the worst luck with mail order, most of my stuff never shows up or is damaged /missing part of the order. Its absolutely crazy the bad luck I have had with their mail order. Been looking to pick up a space hulk set off and on for years and a good set alwasy seem to go for about $100 any ways so this is a steal as far as I am concerned.

Personally, I'm really bummed. I was all set to buy SH with plastic corridors and it's cardboard sections again.
I'm certainly not paying £60 when I've already got 1st edition + all expansions and 2nd edition.

Well I think its a let down... Flat card tiles again and terminators that are going to need a lot of chopping to use outside the game unless you have a Blood Angels army... Had one on order at my flgs which I've now cancelled. There are a lot of better games out there for the price tag...

If they limit the production run on this, they are FOOLS!!! Of course, now they'll probably have Forge World make resin corridors and stuff for it. Wasn't there another game similar to Space Hulk called Space Crusade that allowed the use of Orks, Space Marine Scouts and even Eldar? That would be awesome.

One thing I never liked about the Broodlord model is how humanoid/non-alien he looks. This new Broodlord looks more genestealerish, which is great.
But genestealers, with each facelift, seem to look less and less alien and more and more humanoid. These new ones are the most humanoid looking yet. Kinda lame...

Well at least I can understand why it was marketed this way and made 'limited edition' they have managed to shift them to the panic and impulse buyers. If they had marketed it as usual and people saw what they were getting long before it could be ordered they would of had time to think and realise its not that good or value for money these days.
This is probably going to be the start of a long line of 'Mystery Box' releases to get people to buy games that would not of otherwise sold very well...

Absolutely gorgeous minis- high quality and well posed, no complaints there!
However I think that the cardboard corridors are underwhelming. I was expecting a little more from GW with this update.
And at £60 a piece for corridors I could make out of a cereal packet, I'm going to have to turn this down.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

I think the fact you get 11 gorgeous termies is worth the price tag alone. 3-5 mins each to remove the "scenic" base and rebase them on 40mm's to make them 40k legal or just magnetize them so they can be swapped between 40k and SH, everything else is more or less "free".
If someone doesn't have SH already (like I do) how is it a bad value? It's $79 through most places offering 20% discount. That ends up being $15-20 US more than most PC or PS3 games that you play for what? A week at most before the novelty wears off.
It looks compatible with the original SH tile wise so is a good buy for the "vet" gamers that want to have an excuse to dust off their copies again.
Some people just can't be made happy.
Mick, you can somehow see into the future and know that if GW hadn't done what they did this SH would be utter fail? Must be nice to have precognitive powers.

I won't be buying it. The dead marine etc. are nice touches and it's a great update but i was really hoping for plastic tiles. As said before there's better things I could spend my £60 on. Bit dissapointed tbh. The models are far betetr than I expected and it's nice the tiles look like they'll fit with the oldies but I on't get the use from it as a game without the 3d scenary to use in other games too.
