Well I am about to sit down and really start pushing out some eldar jetbikes, but I am a little apprehensive about it seeing the rumors about new eldar jetbikes coming... Anyone have any more information about when the new bikes will be released?

You wont be seeing any Eldar for atleast 2 years.

News and rumors is for news and rumors, not asking questions... This is more a 'discussions' thread, but thanks for at least putting the question marks in! Believe me, as soon as anyone knows anything it will show up here immediately!

Btw, if you use the search, you should be able to find the pics of the prototype from last year, if you haven't seen those yet.

Cheers and welcome to dakk btw!

I thought I saw a pic of a new one (prototype) in a Gamesday photo...but I would imagine there wont be new ones released for awhile

That picture was from SEVERAL years ago.

The new Dark Eldar reaver bikes share design aspects with it (add blades and spikes) - the forward cowling is different though (but can be handled modelwise with a different piece.

It would probably be trivial to convert the DE jetbikes to Craftworld Eldar. Trim down the bladed bits, cut off the more spiky parts, use guardian heads. The cowlings are the only parts that would be hard to convert without just buying old jetbikes, too, but painting them without blood and trimming down the edges to be more rounded than bladey would probably keep them looking fairly good as CWE.
