I was just on the GW website browsing Eldar, and curiously noticed there are no striking scorpions. I saw another thread about possessed being missing so who knows? Anyone hear anything?

There's a few units that aren't showing up on the US GW site. No idea right now if it's a glitch with the new site coming up or something else.

Like all the other "missing" ones, it's only the US store. If your country is set to something else, you can view it. Having US as your country redirects to the main page.

The link doesn't work for me, the Striking Scorpions are definitely missing on the Canadian website as well.

the link I posed was to the UK website. So if its still there, I dont think GW are removing them.

Maybe they'll make a transition from finecast to plastic. I think the sculpts, despite being 8 years old, are up to date with the times.

I spoke with my local GW guy and he said there is nothing about this being permanent ....he is speculating a possibility of retooled into plastic ....but that the Khorne berserker are gone doesn't make sense unless they are becoming an upgrade pack.

Striking Scorpions are still visible for me as well. Seems to be an US only-thing. I wouldn't think too much of it.
