I have emailed them asking if they have in their plans make a more practical armoured Cypheria! They have answered that they haven't receivet many request for it, so it wasn't in their plans
I suppose I'll just use the idea of painting the skin like a bodysuit like Zero Samus!
Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

Actually just a more feminine version of the standard magos dominus would be nice. I like my conversion but I'd like to see someone else's take on the concept.

Looking through the Chaos Index I was thinking that 2 of the most dated figures or sets of figures were Abaddon and the Berserker models. While I am sure GW will be along shortly with their own plus probably a C&D.. I am pretty sure I'll be getting this guy.. and hoping that he isn't $30 like the GW will probably be. Now what to do about those dated Berserkers :/

Aaand ordered. Can't imagine a GW resculpt being any nicer than that (in fact it'd probably be overdone with loads of swirly gak) and I'm a CSM guy who doesn't own an Abaddon. Literally nothing about it I don't like.

And this one isn't? He looks like an evil Christmas tree! In my book, the classic Jes Goodwin sculpt is better, even though the proportions leave much to be desired compared to modern sculpts. All they need to do is give him a make-over a la Ahriman and he'll be perfect.

And this one isn't?
Obviously he and I don't think so lol. Of course opinions will differ, which is a good thing. I'd like a GW update, but I feel like they missed the best opportunity for that 6 months ago.
