Interesting that no Yeoman/Squires are back, and now there seems to be a solo Pegasus. Could it be that we'll get some replacement chaff in the form of units of unridden Pegasus? Might they be joined by a paladin on a peg, or as an add-on the units of Peg Knights?
Also, the previously OOP metal units are now all Resin (finecast?).

The Pegasus has been on there quite a while as I remember. Its just Finecast under a different name. Those units where converted to resin along with most metals some time ago.
Having the missing models returned to the website does make me feel better about the army surviving 9th edition.

If you could't see pretty clearly that it wasn't a link to GW, and instead a link to Youtube, thats your issue with reading comp. don't accuse me of trying to do anything underhanded. If you can't read, its not my fault.

he didn't accuse you of anything underhanded...
he said dropping a youtube link, for no apparent reason, was weak, which it is...
what is the point of the link???
where does it take us???
why not say something about it???
why not link the GW page you are sharing news about???
thanks for sharing the news, but the attitude doesn't exactly make you look good...
you are obviously trying to get traffic to your youtube page, so why not just say that???
you have definitely insured that i won't be viewing your page...
maybe try to be a little humble with the veterans...
it will make your Dakka experience much more enjoyable  ...
it will also make people more likely to watch your videos...
cheers

This is unexpected....
I figured that the stuff would be gone until the new book came out. Now it's not just back, but back in finecast.
Or was it Finecast before?
Either way I'm a bit perturbed. I just started a wood elf army because the Brettonians were missing so much stuff. Grumble Grumble.

You can edit the link so that it says
While I'm sharing some information about Bretonnians, Have a look at my you tube page
Instead you've made it look like you're linking to the GW pages discussed.
This has been pointed out and you've come back snarky, Your attitude sucks, thus I've taken a dislike to you.
Panic...

You want people to view your stuff?
Find something people are interested in, post a summary of what you're talking about and trust that it is interesting enough for people to engage further. Don't do this clumsy click bait stuff, it gets people's backs up and will hamper you in the long term.

Solo pegasus is useful for other armies, like Empire.

Well I am glad that they have gotten their models back.
By the way that pegasus was on there forever it isn't something new.
Also knights errant/Knights of the realm were also available.
I am going to pick up some knights errant and a single pegasus knight for the Empire army I am starting. It's interesting that the resin stuff is not direct only....with other stuff it normally is.

Heads up, if these are still the same resin as before, the Bretonnian Finecast had to been some of the worst Finecast I have seen. Bent everything, swords that could have been rings, wobbly wavy banner poles, and more.
Giant fat DO NOT BUY recommendation. Go try Perry Brothers or Thunderbolt Mountain.

I thought only character models previously got the Finecast treatment in this range.

I thought GW was ending the finecast line and was running the line down, not adding more figures to it.

It seems they aren't making NEW finecast models, but they seem to be happy enough recasting old models in to finecast, they recast some of the wood elf models in to finecast as well.
I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad the Bretonnian stuff is back. On the one hand, cool, it's back. On the other hand... it feels less likely that they're actually going to release new figures if they just rereleased all the old ones.

I really, really hope the rumour of a Bret VS Undead box replacing the Island of Blood is true. My wallet however hopes it's not true, because I'd be all over that.
To add; most of the added models are almost instantly out of stock, and most of the models just look horrendous...
I really worry that at the end of the End Times, Brets get killed off/merged with Empire in the fluff, killing off the individual faction as a whole. But I do doubt this as Brets have their own scenarios in the Nagash book, two even.

Even if Bretonnia and Empire share an army book in the future, doesn't mean that you couldn't run an all Brets force. Same goes for the Chaos legions and Undead.

I highly suspect though we'd have our options drastically reduced, akin to Black Templars. Wouldn't surprise me if the new kits were just upgrade pieces for Empire models.
