Unless he means the Retribution siege engine?

Maybe. The Fury of hell doth not play the warmachine.

I am not sure exactly what the original model is even supposed to look like or what it is even called without looking it up on the PP site. I thought Nigel's model was the stock model but it was rearranged just so in order to make it more aesthetically pleasing.

For all I know the stock model looks better.

But I do know what Nigel did to his model was a stroke of Robotech inspired genius.

I think you're thinking of this:

Yup, I recognize the bits. Huh. Amazing what he did with that to make it into a zentradi walker... lol

I think I found it.

?

Oh wow! Yup, thats Nigel's walker. I guess he or someone else at Tower Games already posted it somewhere.

I want to have the sex with it.

I'm a little underwhelmed, but I do like it. Could use more tentacles. Some bits off the DE Pain Engine maybe?

I hate promo vids like this :-/

Are there screen captures someplace?

I'm going to buck the trend and say that i actually quite like it.

I'd probably heist a few tentacles from a Cronos pain engine to add to it, but as a whole it appeals to me.

I'm looking forward to the Menoth one, assuming it's not already been released. I'm a bit behind on news..

I disliked this in the art, but I think the model looks cool. Could use another pair of tenticles yes. Hopefully those are metal to allow easier reposing and bitz ordering a second pair of them.

It looks like a very angry cast iron stove...

PP just took its "tiny legs syndrome" to a whole new level.

Absolute garbage.

It's not terrible, but not particularly good, and whoever decided to release this as a video instead of just pictures could use a good nadpunch.

Amazing haha

I don't mind it. But its not the sort of thing I see and immediately say "ZOMFG I GOTSTA HAVE!"
Missed opportunity

Can we just have a picture yet? I can't sit through their nonsense.

The model is rather underwhelming when compared to the art they showed off in NQ 41

*checks google image search*

No, nothing yet. Sorry.

It was a fething unicorn with arms... Kinda disappointed me. But maybe the other models that will be released will look better.

Very disappointing indeed.

2 tentacles? Are you kidding me?

This isn't the Kraken.

It's the Krapken.

Is there a better photo of the model out there yet?

*searches google images*

Sorry, only the artwork is out there.

Now I remember what it looks like!

Vegnagun, from FFX-2!

Likely beacuse the Dark Eldar talos totally ripped off the Cryx line.

I'm not really a fan of the new model, it's just not that exciting. Could've been a lot better.

For those that are too lazy/workblocked/don't want to watch the video:




I'm with Aduro on this, I would add at least 2 more tentacles to bring the total number of limbs up to 8.

I'm fine with just two tentacles.

The less to assemble the better.

Octocrabicorn?
Unicrabopus?

It's OK...sort of like the big headed, special needs kid of the Colossus line.

The Workblocked salute you - thanks!

Here's hoping that the Merc titan will look as great as the art.
