Both suck a lot. At least they are good looking, not too expensive, and sprues have 5 carbines.

Not like I wasn't buying 4 boxes to begin with, just sucks that(barring trades and bit sites) you NEED to buy 4 to get some of the options.

Ok hating done this stuff looks great and for really makes me want to play Dark Eldar.

you realize some of us DE players started at the beginning of 3rd edition and didnt get any models or even a codex update for 12 years right. Totally forgotten.

Actually we did get a small update so to speak...started in the WD (can't remember the issue but got it somewhere) and then went into the codex. Wasn't anything special just wargear and vechile upgrades.

Also Archonites and Draconites(aka, a way to do Wych Cults without a SC).

OH MY----- Better than I could have ever wished for. Beautiful. Simply amazing. I can see now how they'd fit both into the same kit, and frankly, that sounds great.

Although for a bomber, I would expect wider wings....

The sprue pics in question;





Yup, looks like feathers will have to trade...

Interesting, I count 8 different heads, 5 torsos (looks like 2 female), and, IMO, the most amazing agonizer so far...

Edit: Nope! I missed one, 9 heads it seems.

...Hmm. I have mixed feelings about the sprues. There's a little TOO many options for a solarite (which basically no one would ever use, what with them being gun-totes), and not enough gunz... But on the other hand, the solarite pieces are absolutely gorgeous I can't resist them.... That agoniser, that razorflail, that spear...oh my god.... So great.

GW has infinitely surprised me. Maybe because the DE team is so great, or maybe because GW is so great. Regardless, it's really nice to see such great models.

The same reason DE players wanted new scourges, a new Talos, and a razorwing, ect. The models are either FW only or heavily outdated.

TWC: No Model
Fenris Wolves: Warhammer Models from around same time period as 40K 2nd Edition on retangular bases
Bjorn/Venerable: 2nd Edition or FW
Ulrich: 2nd Edition
Ragnar: 2nd Edition
Rune Priest (Standard): 3rd Edition
Iron Priest: 2nd Edition
Wolf Priest (Standard): No model

There is no rumored date or even a season rumored for the TWC; just that they won't come out as a FW release as GW will eventually make them in Plastic.

Or plastic. It's what everyone in my area did for their Bjorns(and I do mean EVERYONE).

I haven't had any interest in dark eldar until I saw that pain engine. Now I think I'll look at their codex.

Uh, actually:
"This fall" is a rumored date/season and from FW in regards to it.
So yeah. there's that.

Without drying to drag it off topic:

There are several viable venerable dreadnought kits and several viable fenrisian wolf kits. I agree, some of the characters/blisters are lacking, but there's still plenty of other options; the Rune Priest still looks good, there are a multitude of chaplain and techmarine models existing and Ragnar, Wolf Priests, Rune Priests can all be easily made using the basic Wolf pack box. Whether they need a wave for blisters is debatable but I'm gonna leave this there as it's off topic...

New "What's new" is up with Jes talking about the new Talos/Cronos models (including concept sketches and a 3D rotating Talos pic):

Did anyone else get the impression Jes was suggesting converting Grotesques' out of the Talos/Chronos? The bit where he mentioned you could add legs got me thinking.

Looking at the Chronos it occurred to me without anyone suggesting it, but that would be one *bleeping* expensive way of doing Grotesques, wouldn't it? On a positive note, it would make an Ogryn squad at $22.25/model seem cheap by comparison.

So true but I'd love to see what conversions people would come up with.

Dark Eldar. You'll start for the asthetics. You'll stay for the Pain Tokens.

Eric

Those Scourges looks amazing!

The Venom with passenger models and flag looks silly. If I field them, I would just leave the gunner.

Personally, I may have read too much into - "in the end we went for two racks curving over the back...a feature occurring on other Coven models"

What would they be then Jes?

是的
only because our 3rd edition codex didnt have any vehicle upgrades at all!

I remember my local GW giving me their DE warriors from the showcase
Then I moved and started going to another store. One day I found all the DE boxes and codex had been removed from the shelves. I thought my army was going to become squats mk2

Anyone have any idea about Razorwing dimensions?
I see people write that its smaller then Stormraven\Valk, and really really hope that i can pack at least two of them to one Pack 720 tray

In the article, what kit are they talking about using for the legs?

Phil's infamous 'Drill-legged Shriveners'

This caught my eye as well, seeing as how there isn't any right now.

Damn..that is going to be an expensive month, all of the new DE stuff rocks!

Are they going to release Wrack models? Grotesque models? New Haemonculi?

Nvs wrote:In the article, what kit are they talking about using for the legs?

I was wondering this myself.

Yes, but not yet

I'm hanging on a thin thread for those too

Are they going to release Wrack models? Grotesque models? New Haemonculi?

This Dark Eldar release for June is being promoted as "Murderous Skies" and neither of those things fly, skim, jump-pack move or hover like the new models listed for Advance Order, so the question might answer itself.

Feck me, Jes does more advertising than the rest of GW put together.

Oh man must resist urge to blow money I don't have on the Dark Eldar, I love most of the models, especially the Scourges, and those Razorwings.

Also those will probably be metal models, and will probably not appear until after the metal/resin conversion is all shaken out and working.

The DE flyers are looking great.
