Didn't see this coming.
Throgg and the Dragon Ogres look awesome. I quite like the Lord aswell though I think it needs a new head.

**MadCowCrazy**

Yay, finally some tentacles for the nether regions of my greater daemon of Slaanesh

**Grimtuff**

Just found out the names of those beasties after a little digging. We have a Slaughterbrute and a Mutalith Vortex Monster

**lord_blackfang**

I don't give a flying feth about Warriors of Chaos, but this looks to be a really strong release, model-wise, and I will pick up one of those tentacle****beasts just to have.

Is it really called a Mutilith Vortex Monster...?

Either that or a "Mutalith Void Beast".

A combo of the two ("Vortexbeast") is better IMO.

**Samurai_Eduh**

Damn you work internet, stop blocking the pics!

**Flashman**

Way better than the WoC November release. Some suitably chaotic pieces in there. Nothing that will be troubling my wallet thank god, but a slight return to form.

Especially good to see Dragon Ogres with non-spindly legs at last.

Now here's a thought. The Warshrine. Back then several people noted it looked like the Howdah was supposed to go on a then unreleased big monster and the ...things lifting it were just filler. Think it will all too conveniently fit on the back of the Slaughterbrute/Vortex Beast?

Yeah, I like Vortex Beast, or Void beast better. I couldn't tell if you were making a joke at the model, or that was really it's name at first, lol.

**pretre**

Someone on another board brought up that some of these might make great counts-as for Mauler/Forge fiends in 40k.

**MajorTom11**

This stuff looks incredible... I like everything, and I don't remember last time I said that... great job GW!

Despite that review, they are still going to lose their gak that I said it ahead of schedule lol... someone is gettin fired for being leaks mcguffin!

Mother of God, you're right! Even that head with the two tongues would make a better one than the Mauler Fiends god awful grin.

I don't know, We would have to see a size comparsion. I rather like the Forgefiend and Maulerfiends though.

Now, that Chaos Lord and Vilitch, on the other hand. A little bit of converting and they could be awesome Chaos Lords/Sorcerers!

**pretre**

Yeah, I always love good WoC to CSM conversions and this release looks like it will be great CSM fodder!

**Daston**

Sweet! Its my birthday next month and my wife got me a stack of WoC stuff for Christmas, she gets the GW news letter so fingers crossed she takes note....might accedently email her my wishlist lol

**kenshin620**

Wow now those are monsters!

Really hope they're actually usable and not cannon fodder though

Sigh why do WoC get the cool stuff and the BoC (oh wait, BEASTMEN

) get silly useless piles of wtf are they thinking!

(and I was actually impressed by the Warshrine. Sure its not a chariot but those dudes on the bottom make excellent chaos trolls imo)

**Kroothawk**

1.) It's Robin Cruddace, not cruddance (the latter is just an insult).
2.) Personally I find none of those sculpts except Throgg inspiring, but then again I am not a Chaos player (except Chaos Dwarfs). Hope the armybook still has potential as a "count as" Chaos Dwarf book.
3.) The tentacle monster and big Daemon thingy is obviously a dual kit. As are the two chariots.
4.) The arch enemy of the tentacle monster is clearly this (by Hasslefree):

5.) Here the quote by Hastings saying that his time predictions refer to preorder dates:

Personally I'd love a cool new Eldar flyer [and a look at the Voidraven and Harpy]. That said I have plenty to paint in meantime...

My dates used to be pre-order dates, this discussion has been had before (I say used to as I'm not in the rumour buisiness anymore)

His WoC statements some days ago:

I expected the book and some different minis, so I'm guessing that the missing minis & the book will form the big re-release whenever that may be.
(...)
I was expecting the WoC book, plastic dragon Ogres and plastic forsaken (and the nice woc lord on foot in plastic) at the same time as the warshrine...... obviously didn't pan out as I'd expected, but I'm guessing those 3 kits & the plastic chariot will accompany the book release, although when this is I don't know (or indeed care! Lol) all of the woc plastic I mentioned there are finished a long time ago.... they even shown part of the painted chariot in WD

**Kolbalt266**

No Plastic Chaos Dragon?

**-Loki-**

Not sure what Hastings was going on about - those dragon ogres are great.

**Da Boss**

Yeah they look pretty much as I imagined.

Maybe they could have been more "shaggoth"y but I think they're perfectly nice and will probably get a box or two.

I think it's amazing that in this day and age of cameras being fething everywhere that people still can't take pictures in focus...

I think this is known as the 'Bigfoot Effect': The more rare or important your subject, the more blurry and horrible a picture you will take.

Look, it's for artistic effect. Initial "leaked" photos have to be blurry. Nobody would take them seriously otherwise.

Welp looks like Bretonnian update pics will just be a blur of color then

Correction noted. Think the later has been tossed around so much due to people hating the TK book.

Strangely I don't like the Throgg mini. Feels more like a man turned into a troll than a troll given the intelligence of a man. Good model, but doesn't mesh with the background. Of course that background may have been changed in this book

**Erasoketa**

Plastic Dragon Ogres and Chaos Chariot was all I wanted from GW for WoC, so... FETH YEAH!!! AWESOME! I don't give a gak about the other units, but I'll be buying for sure the book and those two units. Sweet

So the lord on foot: Finecost or glorious, glorious plastic?!?!
