I would like to get some aspect warriors. I am currently stuck with some unpainted old jetbike models that look naff compared to the new ones. I don't want this to happen again if possible. Are there any rumours around of plastic aspects in the pipeline?

Crystal balls out please!

No. There is no chance of plastic aspect warriors any time soon. However, if you go out and buy a bunch of finecast aspect warriors and plastic jetbikes in order to be able to field a functional army, there is a 99% chance that GW will release amazing looking plastic aspect warriors within two months of your purchasing the last box that you need. If you buy enough Shining Spears to be able to field three full units, this chance increases to 99.999% repeating.

They definitely missed a trick not including shining spear parts in the Jetbikes kit. Plastic Aspects are long overdue now.

Dire Avengers ARE an aspect. they've been plastic for a while now.

:p

As for the others?

It's taken over 20 years to get new bikes.
Wraithguard only got put into plastic last edition.
Warp spiders don't even have any sculpts newer than 2nd ed.

It might happen - but not in the next 10 years at this rate.
