And rumors on new Marauders or Darkoath? The Conan/tribal vibe is something I'm hoping for.

Well adding monsters does that...As is that sylvaneth box is pure gold for new sylvaneth players. 2 is EASILY worth it. 3-4 isn't even unreasonable if you want to play both kurnoth and treelord heavy armies.
Ogor book remains to be seen how worthwhile cannons and leadbelchers are and do gluttons really work but sylvaneth one is very good value. Pre-ogors considered sylvaneth one best one so far(contents got leaked months ago. Been waiting for that box since then though in the meanwhile kind of lost motivation for sylvaneth as it's so non-interactive army...)
I'm sure you are correct for the current meta. As I'm mostly skipping 3rd edition I tend to just look at financial value and how cool the contents look, or utility in other games. The Ogor box looks like you're actually getting an army so I think it's a more satisyfing purchase (and I kinda wanted everything in it except the lord to expand my KoW army, so a no brainer for me with the big discount)

Well if you expect to get big monster kit for 1/5 of infantry kit you will always be dissapointed...
Cash wise they are all about same value. Some bit more, some bit less but no drastic. Bigger effect comes in how multi-purchable it is and in that sylvaneth is gold as apart hero all kits build multiple things. You start losing value after about 6 of those...ogors? 6 is lot harder to justify

Really it depends on how many the studio has painted up. I wouldn't put it past them to only have two done - the AoS one and the 40k one - and they just painted the various extra heads to show them off as, IIRC, we haven't seen them actually attached to the rest of the body.
I wonder how much he's going to cost as well. Be'lakor levels, or Avatar?

Mind you with GW they tend to keep parts separate anyway...so the heads likely ARE separate as are arms etc and the pieces are then assembled for photoshot.
There's even cases of model missing parts in photos. especially 360 ones Or blu-tack visible.

There’s definitely not 4 whole DPs painted, the details of the paintjob are identical between them there. But you can kind of see them in context of the body there.

Giving a greater daemon head to a Dp is jsut stupid. The only one that looks remotely good is the Slaanesh one. The BT and GUO look especially dumb, like a greater daemon has decided to dress up as a space marine. Probably gonna be the generic head for me, if I buy this.

The Tzeentch head isn't avian enough for my taste. Where are the feathers?!
Also, looking back at the leaks, it feels like Tzeentch got crapped on in this book. Easily the worst of the five marks.

I didn't even notice that haha. They didn't bother with the left side at all. The right side of the backpack is tinted to match the DP's head, but they didn't do it to the other side.

Black voids are a good way to hide stuff, your brain kind of naturally tunes that out. Why matte black flight stands are better than clear plastic ones.

It's also a good trick when painting complex models where you can't get your brush into all the regions. You coat them black and your brain just goes "Oh its shadowing"

Here is my unboxing & review of the new Slaves to Darkness army set. Incl. high-res sprue pics, size comparison of the new Chaos Chosen, and a few observations about the new models & rules:
https://taleofpainters.com/2022/11/review-slaves-to-darkness-army-set/
Chosen are quite large, but there are only five unique bodies. Daemon Prince is amazing though, so many options & many not shown on the promo pictures!

I simply cannot wait for you to show them to us. I might have bought two... Oh, side question: The instruction booklet in this box, does it tell you how to build any DP option, or just the AoS version? Answered in the article! [EDIT]: Surprised he's on a 60mm vs the Avatar's 80mm base. I really am curious to find out how much this guy is going to cost on his own.

I'm kind of pleased that its a 60mm base - means my old metal Slaanesh Keeper can certainly still stand in for a Demon price alongside this great new kit!
I think it also helps reinforce that a prince isn't above a greater demon; that the greater demons are huge and powerful and on a whole different level to a simple prince (which isn't to say that princes are not powerful monsters in their own right of course)

Should mean he also won't dwarf the "current" Daemon Prince.

That's a really good point that I hadn't thought of. Well, with the Avatar in plastic and a great new DP in plastic, I can finally build my own Daemon Prince: Excommunicate Traitoris Horatio Lethus, a Khorne-dedicated former Ultramarine Captain who hates the Tau with endless fury and is forced to wield the Wailing Doom of the Avatar he killed prior to ascending to Daemonhood. The blade is fused to his hand, and he now searches for any means to free himself of the 'Ulthwe Blade', as it is known. He's put entire worlds to the torch in his search, but has yet to be successful (we've played many games centred around this guy!). And yeah, I've got two boxes of Skulls, which includes all the Tau skulls.

Seeing the Plague Monks in that Skaven Battleforce box makes me sad. Can't speak to their effectiveness in the new tome, its just that its an old, inefficient kit. So much wasted space on the sprues from what I remember. Stormvermin would've probably given the box a better look.
Also, seems like a missed opportunity to not have a Slaves to Darkness box set as well, to strike while the iron is hot on its new releases.
