Nice looking model, though I doubt the accuracy of the newsletter. Stronger then anything from the Adeptus Mechanicus? Ridcioulous. Someone call the grey knights, I smell some heresy.

**Jackal**

£400 + Weapons?
Or will they be kind enough to add those in for once?

Still prefer the AC one, more so the one NAVARRO did alot of work on.

smells to me like marketing!

regarding the smaller eldar titan... is that a 60mm dread base he's on?

If there's no alternate weapon options, they'll likely include the 'standard' loadout.

I have a Forge World Revenant and I can assure you it will not fit on a 60mm base (LOL). I bought a round wooden base that is 7 inches diameter and that was perfect for getting an action pose with it. The one pictured by FW is probably roughly the same size.

**ZacktheChaosChild**

Even though it will most likely be the cost of my left testicle, it's awesome. I've even been tempted to start Eldar sometime soon so....

WITH the new book, of course.

**Reecius**

I might have to get one to go along with my Revanant!

**Pyriel-**

Still feels you buy a ton less plastic and details with this titan then with the Imperial reaver.

We don't need the rest of this post. Thanks.

Stronger than anything AVAILABLE as of today. Things might change when they release the warlord titan, somewhere in the next 3 years.

For those who wonder on scale, this might help

That is the Revenant (the smaller titan on the first page).

**warpcrafter**

I think i might have peed myself a little, and I don't even play Eldar. Damn that is awesome.

You don't read :(

AdeptiCon Update

AdeptiCon attendees will be able to admire the immense Eldar Phantom Titan in all its glory, and the crack Forge World team on our sales stand will be taking exclusive advance orders for the Phantom and each of its weapon options

combining the two pics posted shows how big of a boy he really is.

Oh so very nice

I too will need to win the lottery this evening

Or enter FW's charity raffle for a pound while attending their Open Day.

Winning the lottery is better though, as you can get 10 of them

Point.

I say, that big china doll looks rather spiffy, I bet they need to sell a lot of those. I guess that seals the fate of the Imperials, another defeat for the Imperium it is.

**notprop**

Yes it does seem almost inevitable now doesn't it. :(

Loving the Phantom, so much so I dug my Epic ones out to have a comparison. Pretty good likeness just a shame my 15 year old paint job isn't of the same standard!

**zxwarrior**

Wow epic titan but the colour is really different

I know, I own 2

Warboss got the idea, I don't have photoshop at home, and work is still 2 months away, as is my revenant sadly enough :(

**muwhe**

Well that's going to hurt. FW order for AdeptiCon keeps increasing.

Can resin be an addiction?

It is addictive, and just like drugs, it can kill you...

Or if the resin doesnt, the wife will!

**ph34r**

It just looks like an upsized revenant titan. I don't know what I was expecting, but it was definitely something more interesting.

**Darth Bob**

I think the only thing that dissapoints me about this magnificent model is the head. The cockpit is AMAZING, but the actual armored head just looks too much like a Revenant. I would have liked to see something more ornate and in-line with the Epic model.

I almost want to say there's alternate heads. If you look at the inset from this picture:

Spoiler:

There's a noticeably different structure to the 'face', where it looks like a skull rather than the standard 'Guardian' face.

But yeah. The head is a bit too similar to the Revenant, isn't it?

Edit was to place the picture into a spoiler; didn't realize it was a photocollage.

**The Dreadnote**

Here's how it might stack up to other titans (based on the image in the OP).

**Brother Bartius**

I wants it. I needs it. The precious.

Crazy considering I haven't played apocalypse in over 2 years.

How can I justify spending £500 (roughly I would imagine) to the misses.

I'd best start thinking just now.

**spireland**

That's one tall guy on that scale list.
