Tyranid Termagants may be small, but they’re vicious and you can get your free push-fit miniature by speaking to a staff member at your local Warhammer store from the 24th of June. Both will only be available while stocks last.
I think Kroxigor got the biggest glow up with this release, not counting the Aggrodons as direct updates to Cold one cav, more replacements. They look like hulking slabs of muscle now, cannot wait to build a set if they're anywhere near as flexible as the Stone Troggs.
I managed to get the Steggy Helm a bit back, new in package even, but I’ve been unable to find Tehenhauin for a price I was willing to pay so this is a nice surprise. To those who have done the MTO in the past, what’s the procedure? What do the prices tend to look like? Metal or Finecast?
Prices i can't say. But they will have cast up a chunk for immediate shipping. Once they get through those, the orders will go to MTO with the wait times. So if you want them sooner rather than later, order them first thing. And material will be whatever they were cast in originally, so they should all be metal.

Ooo, some good models, but shame they didn't bring back Oxyotl. I guess they did have him as a MTO model already tho
"Material they were previously available" pattern doesn't hold anymore, we have seen some models return to metal despite being converted into resin earlier. I hope that they are metal but I don't hold my breath.
Skink Champion with Cloak of Feathers is missing from the picture, I wonder if it will be available too. I know I am missing two of the four but I can't remember which two
That place is the harsh dark future far left with only war left.
I've done a lot of the middle earth mto's and they always cast in the original material. The only time they're resin is when they were originally cast that way. So everything here should be metal.

It changed not long ago to what the minis were last cast in iirc, the last ed Yarrick mini was in resin in the recent MTO when the mini was originally metal.
"Commissar Yarrick is one of the most storied warriors in the entire Astra Militarum.* Now, the legend returns with this classic resin model"
From Warcom
There were others in fail cast in previous MTO's that were originally metal minis.

It definitely varies. I've looked at past MTO's and not pulled the trigger because the model description mentions it'll be resin, but I've also bought a few that specified they were metal.

I took it that they were emanating some sort of glamour based on their delusions, which made the defenders think they'd be talking to humans. Vampire glamour is an established trope, and in the old world people managed to miss they were talking to effin Rat-Men from time to time

Agreed!

The Ghoul herald has been particularly strong effect when it comes to radiating out the delusion to non-ghouls. Reading between the lines a little and we can see it's affecting them within seconds of him showing up. Note how the words are initially gibberish but somehow coalesce into meaning.

Pretty decent story for setting the atmosphere of the campaign. I like how the Summer King actually has a solid reputation among the villagers as a grand hero.
I wonder if this could lead into an Ushoran reveal? Does anyone else remember that pic of a hidden zombie dragon looking model behind some scenery in a lumineth army shot?
I'd settle for a reveal of a terrorgheist without the stupid fething rule dealing 6MW on 6s to hit.
But yeah Ushoran would be SUPER cool to see, provided they did the story around him right. And I am reasonably confident in the writing team for AoS these days.
