Plaguebearers conspicuous by their absence or maybe they weren't posted by the fool responsible for the leak.

I really don't get the hate for the Daemon Prince. Ok, it isn't one of those models I'd buy for the sake of owning (e.g. Slann Mage Priest, Deathmaster Snikch), but I'd be happy to put one in my army if I collected Daemons.

It's not actually.

It's quite a bit different. Same style, but a different face. Certainly not the 'exact' same face by any means.

And in the end you and Samus are arguing over a subjective opinion, which is pointless.

I dig the daemon Prince i think he'll make a great leader for my chaos. But in a daemon army? i don't think he'd look that impressive compared to everything else.

Then we should be grateful that atleast the GW sculpt team is able to see the difference.

The 2 faces are significantly different , sure they are the "same" in the sense they both are painted red
with horns , but thats where the similarity ends.

The metal one have a way more sinister look , here are the main points:

Deeper eye socket
Sharper cheek bones
Sharper chin
more defined cheek muscle

In every sense it looks more like a skull compared to the plastic one which looks like a Diablo

well i'll be getting the new dp, not loving it 100% but it's plastic and looks versatile so it's a go.

As for the seekers, not as noce models as the last metal daemonettes, but i can't get hold of metal seekers, so they're a yes.

the others, well i've 20 horrors so no, and the changeling is nice so, yes. I've converted my own fate weaver so no, and plastic crushers? yes yes yes YES

I rather like the Changeling model... I'll have to get that for sure. I've decided I don't really like the new Horrors and am quite pleased I stocked up on the old metal ones. The new ones just aren't tenticley enough. It does appear that they were trying to combine the two styles, but since I despise the really old hand waving douche-balloons, I don't really like the new ones that much either. Didn't this happen with the Daemonettes too? Ie the really old ones looked terrible, the boobie ones looked best (not because of boobs... well maybe a little), and the current ones look stupid.

Ahh well... I'm happy. The Fateweaver model is also quite nice, though I just picked up a normal LoC and that model isn't too bad.

I'm willing to wait until we've seen more of the Horrors before I pass judgement. Clearly they're going to come 10 to a box, so let's see what the rest of them look like and how modular the parts are (who knows - maybe there are loads of tentacles on the sprue), and what the Icons/etc. look like.

Nurgle's not allowed to have a plastic kit apparently - the only one I can think of is that old set of terrible looking plague marines.

WTH is up with it's hands? Is it a plant or something?
Its legs are that stupid horse variety crap, which is completely wrong for CSM
The lower torso is exposed, which looks terrible
Its armor lacks any depth or feeling. Its too clean and new looking
Not enough chains and skulls
The backpack looks beyond ridiculous,which also lost ANY personality it once had


Sorry, but had to quote this and disect it.

1: Its a daemon, not a plant, why would a daemon have basic human sized hands in comparison to the rest of it?
I think the look of sharp talons look pretty decent.

2: Thats good then about the legs, since its released for daermons, not SCM

3: So it should look like a giant marine instead of a daemon? buy the inquisitor model if you want that.

4: Its a daemon, the armour is daemonic.
Im pretty sure the armour would look new to some degree.
Thats like saying abaddons daemon weapon should have rust since its old.

5: Why chains and skulls? its an undivided prince, not khorne.
By staying undivided i like the way its plain, it allows for people to adapt to how they need it, being plastic makes this even better.

6: That would be because its part of a 2 part option.
You can have that or the wings, so a rough shape and design had to be used to allow both to fit.
Dont see why a daemon would need a pack anyway.

/Rant



Anywho, i think its alot better.
Being plastic and multi part it allows convertion to be made easy, rather than having to take a saw or snips to it.
Also means you can change it from undivided to a god with relative ease, where as the old one would be near on impossible (hence the release of the nurgle prince)

To make it better, the metal one comes with the wrong size base, as it should be a 60mm

Just a little reminder to everyone complaining about how the new DP looks...as this will be a plastic kit, there will undoubtedly be multiple head choices, armor/icons/skulls, and probably even different hands to choose from. So while it's valid to say you don't like that particular picture, it's a little early to start condemning the whole kit.

And one other caveat...most chaos players love to convert models. And a plastic model is a hell of a lot easier to assemble and convert than a metal one...

Less QQ, more pew pew!

At the very least there's two torso options, two heads, an axe, a sword, wings, and something to replace the CSM backpack for fantasy players.

3 Heads, there's 2 different heads on the Fantasy models shown so far, and I'd be willing to bet that the Torso options aren't just front, so no need for something to replace the backpack for the Fantasy models, although it looks like one is wearing some spikes on his back.

Plastic horrors are Pink Squig. And plastic. Meeeeeeeh
Kairos is nice. It has been sculpted since a while, but wasn't released due to casting problem.

Oh, and the tactica on the GW website (where the pics originally came from) has been deleted .

You do have a very valid point, but I'm willing to be they are all going to be pretty similar. I mean look at the rest of the Daemon boxes... they're all pretty much the same (though granted they aren't Tzeentch Daemons). Pink squigs of Tzeentch, hah! .

From the looks of the horrors and the joints:

Body and legs are a single piece.

Head and neck section go over the top of the body, covering it up.

1 set of arms go onto that head section at the side.

2nd set go into a basic arm slot on the body section.


Just my guess from what looks to be joins in the models
Still want an army of pink squigs.

whoa, what's with the dp hate? It looks pretty awesome. The hands are a little iffy but that's easy to fix.Head and horse feet are cool. Only issue is that the claw things on the backpack look stupid.
