In a squad of 5, you can only have 1 liquifier, so I don't see why they would put more, or why you would need more.

Are they going to be releasing a seperate model for the Voidraven Bomber? I was hoping that the Razorwing would be a 2 model box like the Talos

But the Razorwing model looks awesome anyway so I'm quite happy to buy 2 of them for my DE anyway

The Haemi and the Wracks are ok. The Grotesque is a bit boring, and if there is only one model available... epic fail.

DUH! I didn't think that one through, lol. Thanks.

The Voidraven is significantly larger than the Razorwing according to the codex description. I assume it will be a completely different kit.

The price of the Razorwing is stupidly good value (by GW standards) so do you think we are starting to see a drop in plastic prices?

I know we are having a price RISE but like petrol prices, it takes months for the effect of a price drop to hit the pumps. Why is this Razorwing so cheap, I'd expect at least £28/30 on it.

I'd hopefully say new plastic kits for upcoming codexes MIGHT not be to mentally priced..

Finecast however is another story :(

The model still hasn't come out yet, and IIRC, the valkyrie got a price increase before it even hit the shelves...

Argh...

So they are marketing it as £25.50 BEFORE the price increase but you can't buy until AFTER the price increase?

GOD DAMN YOU GW! I had like 1% hope in you then.

If you'd already preordered one when it was up at the lower price, surely you wouldn't have to pay the increased price even if it does go up prior to release?

I know with computer games (game.com) they sell the game for the price the game was when you pre-ordered it (if the price is then lowered prior to release you get it for the lower price, but if the price increases you only pay the price it said when the order was placed).

Would GW be nice enough to do that? Or am I expecting too much

Not everything is increasing with the price rise. These new releases are the price they are listed and not going up in price.

Not the lame 3 they usually do. So bravo there.

Also, the site lists that they are sold in 22 components. I figured 2 hands each (resin ends at the wrists) plus a separate head, plus body... That's 20 pieces. Plus the Stinger Pistol. Plus.... ??? Maybe another Haemonculus weapon.

I agree, the wracks are better and more varied than was expected, not the best models IMHO but at least they won't all look exactly the same...

The Grotesque however; ouch! Expensive and one pose doesn't do it for me.

Do we know who sculpted these, because they don't seem up to Jes' usual standards, so it might be someone else?

The DE models are beyond awesome, truly amazing looking.

Shame I cant bring myself to play weird soul sucking space perverts though.

FOR GULLIMAN AND THE EMPEROR!

52 euro for a troop choice, It'd be cheaper too start that all terminator templar army I've always wanted

$30 CDN for ONE Grotesque. Fuuuuuuuug.

Hey now! Don't you go criticisin'!

Thems Grotesques is made of Finecost - and they are the greatest bestest most awesomest miniatures to be ever made by mankind.

Or so GW would have us believe...

"Finecost"!

I should have known it wouldn't be to long before someone came up with a better way of describing the Resin Switch!

Also, for the work-blocked, what is the price of the Razorwing?

Thanks!

£25.50 I don't know if that helps or gives you an indication of what it might be in $?

You know, my dreams of a dark eldar army are dying. I said I'd wait until I saw all the releases before I jumped in. What a failure that was.

Not especially convinced by the Grotesque, but the other stuff is pretty damned nifty.

Does this leave much else to come out for the Dark Eldar? Apart from the Archon's Court and Special characters?

Oops - sorry!

I mean to add in "in US Dollars" in there...

$41.25, so it could have been worse...

I like these minis, actually. The DE Haemonculus is kind of lame, but the other minis are pretty sweet.

It's $41.25 US, Alpha. A pretty reasonable price, I honestly think.

Back on track: this release is a bit underwhelming compared to the last one. The Razorwing is gorgeous, I want ten, I'll buy one, but I want ten. The Wracks are pretty sweet looking, but I agree that their poses are quite stale. I'm more of a Kabal/Cult mix kind of army anyways, I don't use much Coven stuff (maybe even not at all, it depends if you include Scourges). I honestly like the Grotesque and Haemunculus, I really do, I think they look pretty cool. The pose for the Grotesque is odd, I'll admit.

Edit: Have we any idea when the Voidraven is coming out? I was kind of under the impression it would be under this release, along with the Decapitator? I guess this question is for Kroot, are either of them in the foreseeable future?

the wracks come in 5 for 45$ the grotesque come in 1 and at 30$ thats 90 bucks just to make a small squad according to the codex...unless my new book is already outdated :\ (or this is just a way for GW to make people buy overly expensive models to include them in their army)

Is it me or does the Wracks gun remind you of an M15/M16?



I like the new models, the Grot could be better but it's nothing that can be fixed.

I want that Voidraven!

I don't really mind the haemy pose that much for a single model, but with any quantity of them over that, its going to look silly not having more poseability options. Its a shame. Couldn't they just make a force commander-esque haemy box for all the options he carries?

I didn't mind the Grotesque at first, but having 3-4 of them doing the freaking beat-it dance across the table is going to look really stupid. At 30 a pop, I think they priced them out of game usage for a lot of people.

Yeah, I agree. The Haemis can be taken 3 per HQ choice. It's kind of silly you might end up with six little freaks in their Jesus Christ pose.
