DO NOT VOTE LOW BECAUSE OF THE EXTREME DIFFICULTY OF THE ASSEMBLY!

100 little legs made out of sometimes warped resin. Despite that, just look at it. It has to be as cool as it is hard to assemble. It's nice and Necron-ish.

You have to be quite a pro to assemble this, but we're going to see at least one of these in the next Golden Daemon competition.

The only thing I think I don't like is the gauss arms on the side, but its awesomeness makes that invisible.

Cant wait to assemble this. Pre-ordered mine today!

Very very cool...but I think the guns look a little wimpy.

i have problems with the guns and the head. particularly the mouth. Other than that i think it is a welcome addition to spice up the necron unit selection.

Voted pretty damn good.

I agree with deuce on the mouth and guns (which stops me voting higher)
Other than that, ill be buying 2-3 of them.


Assembly wont be soo bad, just a longer clean-up than normal.
Also, you will be using a gakload of pins on it, but its a must.

It looks like it'll shatter if I breathe on it. I mean, I have enough problems with plastic (My hands are clumsy and my fingers stubby).

But I like the mouth; it didn't go the generic "lots of mandibles/mouthparts" routine and instead got some weird vacuum thing that looks hideous and disturbing and awesome.

I think it looks cute. I want to buy one just to pet it. The face makes it look anything but scary.

This brings me back to when i wanted to make a ripper robot pet! the brain fluids arer flowing again......

The jet-engine tail, antennae, and weird looking face/mouth prevented me from voting any higher than "fine."

Once I saw it painted it looked much better than my original thoughts on it.

With some conversions it'll be great.

I want to start necrons now.

Same here. Ive very recently become interested in them. I just got my codex yesterday and havent put it down yet. It has sealed the deal. They still need a bit of fleshing out, but whats there already is real good. The rumors that the new codex next year will move the C'Tan off to the background and give the Necrons some more self centered motivations sounds great too.

As far as the Tomb Stalker goes...looks great. However Ill hold off on my order until I see some reviews of the actual kit. FW kit quality is sketchy and Id hate to order one and find all those legs warped and full of sink holes/bubbles. Also while the multi-part kit will make assmebly difficult it will also allow for a huge variety of poses.

There is a mini from another company I plan on getting and possibly trying to use with my soon to be Necron army. This thing looks really cool, and I think with a bit of conversion would fit Necrons great. Note that its 15mm scale so the trooper in the pic is about 1/2 the size of a GW trooper.





Its not available yet, currently in the casting stage. Ill be all over one as soon as they go on sale.

Thing above looks entirely Tau, not necron at all.

Thats why I said with some conversion. Change the large guns out for a couple heavy gaus cannons from the heavy destroyer, a little GS work here and there, etc.

I want one just in general, if I can make it fit with a Necron army then thats just a bonus.

This model is ace, forge world have needed some new Necron models for years. That pilon thing was rubbish.

This looks amazing I can't wait to put one on the board and watch people's jaws drop.

It is an awesome sculpt and dare-I-say pretty cool. BUT, it's just going to make playing against Necrons ever more difficult with my Tau seeing as this has digging rules ala-Mawloc.

We need someone to post a pic of the unassembled kit, so we can really get an idea of what will be involved.

I want one!!!!

I have a large Necron army and I am eagerly awaiting the new codex.

I have pre-ordered mine also....

That thing is one of the better models I've seen some out of Forgeworld. The complexity and level of detail are amazing, which is especially nice considering it wasn't even something they were officially working on, someone there just made it themselves.

LoL I agree. I think that is due to the head and eyes...also those guns...cute!

Agreed, the guns looke pretty much like fusion blasters.

I'd love to see pics of the kit. I'm dying to get one of these.
