but it really seems like it will keep the shame shape as the new rhinos, as evidenced by this part:

which is very similar to what the v2 rhino look, except with more details!
It seems the reference to the Deimos pattern is only related to having the round doors, which visually are still pretty close to the current kit because of the round Sororitas emblem on the current rhino. And also the new exhauts, which look DAMN FINE!!! Brutal, and baroque, like Sisters should!
That adjustment happened awhile ago- modern Deimos Rhinos share the same basic chassis as the Mars pattern.

I don't like the front plate or the top guns/hatches/thingies with bolters. Not found of the dozer blade either. And I really hope they keep and expand on the splendid top of the current rhino rather than the ugly flat top of the ugly astartes rhino.
Damn, those guys have no sense of style! It feels like they just don't have any budget to put extra blingies on their rides lol.

Judging by that side plate we're getting something similar to the FW Deimos pattern stuff rather than original. That makes me wonder if they'll be using current Rhino casts with sisters add-ons, but that would force them to make chaos specific Deimos upgrade sprues as well. Far better economy making brand new Deimos casts that can be used by SM&CSM as-is and have separate Sisters add-on sprues. Hopefully we'll see Deimos predator parts too? Who knows?
Looking at that render of the side door and the exhaust, that would suggest that the side panels will be different at the very least. Possibly it'll be in multiple parts, if that front wing panel is indeed a separate component.
Since the Rhino outer side panels are split amongst the two hull sprues, that would suggest an entirely new kit, not just a partial replacement of the existing Rhino kit.

I don't think marines are going to get Deimos rhinos.
I think it'll be a Sisters exclusive. But we'll see.

seems like a wasted oppertunity if you ask me,even if we assume GW's plan is to completely switch to Primaris,chaos still uses Rhinos so it'd be a waste not to sell them the new kit, one based on a pattern more common in the heresy era at that

Would be waste of opportunity though. Deimos pattern is one marines have used and still use(albeit in fewer numbers than during great crusade when it was the standard pattern).
Hopefully sister specific details are at least easy to remove.

Regarding the Deimos-pattern Rhinos, FW produces them for 30k. Looks like it might be coming back in plastic. It would be cool to see them tooled with the new technology.

From the terms and conditions of the competition for doing the survey, looks like the sisters will be £35 for a squad.
This year, as a show of thanks for your feedback, one lucky participant will win* a plastic Sisters of Battle army once they’re ready for release! 10 more will win themselves a squad of the new plastic Battle Sisters.
12) The prizes will be an army of new Adepta Sororitas plastic miniatures. The prizes would include a grand prize worth £250 and 10 prizes worth £35 (grand prize ca. AUD 468 and 10 prizes at AUD 65). The prize value of the 11 prizes are: GBP £600 (ca. AUD 1127) and they will be dispatched to the customer at the time of their worldwide release later this year. The currency and exact value of each prize will vary depending on the countries of residence of the winners.

Maybe, but "Oh hey, you won something that is out in 4 months, sit tight and hope we dont forget" isn't the best plan in the world, usually youd expect to follow up the competition with a prize in closer proximity.

I really like what they are after with those side-plates. On my old Sisters Rhinos I got extra of the metal Exorcist plates to put on them, in addition to the FW doors and Inquisition top door (before they discontinued doing bitz orders).

In fact that's the reward claim date, it's written a bit earlier that the prize will be granted with the final release
From part 12.

If they're clever and make the Deimos Rhino with optional bits to work as a normal Rhino (or follow it with an HH era plastic version?) I'd be all over that. Been mulling around a 2nd edition style Space Wolf retro-force and I'd absolutely buy some Deimos pattern stuff (price dependent).

Why do you care what other players want? Why put some kind of negative spin on something because people are excited by the idea of a plastic Deimos pattern rhino chassis?

I had a feeling that they weren't going to use the current Rhino kit. That kit has held up for a long time but it does deserve to be updated.
By going with a Deimos pattern, they can update the Rhino kit while making it sisters-specific, probably with a different sprue depending on which version you get (exorcist, immolator, basic, etc), without being shoehorned into using the current frame.

it's not like they're demanding access to a new unit, the Rhino is a a unit extremely common among the adeptus Astartes, and the Demios pattern is noted as being the one in use during the Horus Heresy (which is popular eneugh that GW put out MK3 and MK4 marine kits) people are just saying that if the kit allows for one without sisters icongraphy they might pick some up. and that if it does have built in iconography it's a bit of a lost oppertunity given the new rhino is apt to be pretty popular with sapce marine and especially chaos space marine players.

It looks largely in the vein of the FW Deimos, so it doesn't look like an update as much as an involved add-on.

intreastingly eneugh the Demios pattern was more common in the heresy, which I suspect also might be a factor here. if we assume GW's long term plan is to replace standard space marines with primaris, we'll still need to see the old stuff updated for chaos, and chaos should be rights MOSTLY use the older Demios pattern. So this gives GW a starting point for a new Chaos Rhino pattern line
