Even more grim is the future for Dark Eldar characters. Or perhaps as grim...

Perfect opportunity to give us a plastic Vect and Baron imo.

Perfect opportunity don't mean squat. It was also a perfect opportunity for the IG to get plastic kits for their characters, and look how that turned out.

Pretty okay, because where the hell were plastic Creed and Kell going to fit in? What about Harker or any of the others?
There was no major redo to the troop kits, the only real "new" troop unit was the Scions and they didn't get any characters at all.

Primarily when they have been doing "plastic characters" it has been as part of an overall kit redo, like how Kroq-Gar is now in the basic Carnosaur kit...or like how Nork Deddog is part of the Ogryn box.

While I still hold out hope that we'll at least get a Baron kit so he stays in the codex, they're probably going to cut us down to Vect, Lelith, Rakarth, and maybe Drazhar.

Pask stayed in the codex and I was frankly surprised at that, despite him having a "model" in the form of a Finecast piece.
