There will be Nemesor Zahndrekh, Vargard Obyron and Illuminor Szeras according to my FLGS.

Same every month... If you're going to leak pics on the net, why not post pics of everything?

See... this is why I don't need a subscription to White Dwarf!

More pics at http://www.beastsofwar.com/warhammer-40k/necrons-may-5th/

They seem to have gone to some effort to crop away the prices...

Nemesor Zandrekh is cool, but Obyron is too static for my liking.

Also... I was just thinking today how the Necron line is devoid of skulls and then Illuminor Szeras comes along clutching one in his mitt

wait, so GW has just taken the old sprues form the old destroyer lord and heavy destroyer, taken away the destroyer bits, converted them to plastic (fully) and are now reselling them?
What the hell was the point of that?

Pfff. Heavy Destroyer upgrade pack is lame old-style. Suxxorz. Imma bitz buy heavy gauss cannons from Stalkers when they start becoming available instead.

Love the spyders and wraiths.. but why the TINY base on the spyder? Even if I create a heavy base they're gonna be falling all over the place.

Damn, these are good. With a few exceptions (monopose Ballerina Grotesques, I'm looking at you!) GW's sculptors have been doing an excellent job over the past year or so.

Is it just me or does the Nemesor's paint job make any one else think of Macho Man Randy Savage? But a cool model which i will buy for sure none the less.

Love everything but the Tomb Blades. Those whip coils look damn flimsy though...not looking forward to them snapping off left and right.

Seraz looks a bit bulky compared to the artwork...

11 pounds for Namesor Zahndrek ($17)
9.50 pounds for Vargard Oberyon ($9.50) It's hard to tell.
BOW cropped the pictures to hide the other price data.

What is up with the midget flying bases on the spiders. Based on the height of the stem and the width of the base, I am guessing those are the same flying bases as what a gun drone uses. Which makes no sense...TWC and Blood Crushers are on 60mm Bases. Heck, fenrisian wolves are on 40mm bases. Carnies and Tyrants are 60mm. Why would a 3 wound MC be on the equivalent of a 25mm infantry base. The model doesn't even fit by any stretch of the imagination and unlike (most) skimmers, the size of the base does matter.

I am loving the spiders, wraiths and stalker. The tomb blades, not my cup of tea, the shape just doesn't seem right...

Nemesor Zandrekh O_O just like the art :') man, okay, I'm going to buy him and Obyron... so cool...

Man, I love the tomb spyder, great looking model. But as far as cost to point ratio, its truly harsh. My god. If you want to run a scarab farm, you'd better go see a bank about a loan.

Its like what GW wanted to do for Carnifexes, but failed because their marketing department didn't get a hold of the rules writer in time. Expect Carnifex points to go down next edition to 50 points a model too, haha.

That's actually an entire head...not just a skull. And he's probing the eldar mouth. LoL's abound.

Oh, balls. I really like those Wraith models. But I really like my old Wraith models.

Because the metal version of those guns are terrible and always warped, making them look very, very sloppy.

Also, this is the same principle as the Rhino vs. Razorback: either the former shouldn't exist at all, or else the latter should just be an upgrade kit.

Dig it!

Some fantastic looking models.

I may get some spyders just to paint them up. I think my only concern is the Whip coils. I always transport my army and those look like prime candidates for multiple breaks.

Obyron looks awesome but dont like how he is holding his warsythe, kinda reminds me of an ape holding a long stick. But got to say they do look good,

I kinda appreciate the pose. He's really got a "you shall not pass" thing going on there.

YES!

Obyron is aaaaaamazing. He'll be my CCB war scythe driver.

Triarch Stalker and Canoptek Spyder look freaking awesome, rest is either meh or finecast. Wraiths don't look nearly menacing enough.

Tomb Blades look awful.

Hot damn those look good. I wanted to see the Scythes... but oh well.

Tomb Blades are as awesome as I expected them to be. Despite the finecast, I am seriously considering both the Nemesor and Varguard to use as Overlords in my army... they just look too good.

The stalker is... ok. I'm not the biggest fan of the codex art to begin with, and they nailed it, but something isn't right about it. Perhaps that'll change after I see it with its other weapon choices.

The Wraiths? Yes. So much win.

The Destroyers.... same models, really? If I wanted those, I would go on eBay and buy the old metal ones. However, I saw somewhere that a guy took the Tesla Destructors and used them as Heavy Gauss Cannons. They looked boss, and I think that's what I will do.

Don't know why you think upgrade packs are plastic, they are resin.

Man I hope the price on the wraiths is reasonable cause I really want a box or two of them. These all look sweet except for zandrekh. Even the tomb blades have something going for them
