Nice Stuff Man!

The second note on the bottom of the picture: "Should take range of plastic arms from Wyches, Warriors, and Scourges".

Sorry if it was obvious beforehand, it just makes me happy to have plastic Scourges confirmed.

Glad I wasnt the only one to notice this.

I think that the "summer of flyers" is actually going to be the "summer of flying infintry" so there will be plastic shrikes, scourges and raptors.

And Vespid!


Aww, wait. They suck anyway.

Im glad someone as nice eyesight!

Quality artwork, with even better notes on it

I guess this means i dont have to make any more carbines from chopped splinter rifles?

I very much hope so! Here's to hoping that the Scourge models look as amazing as their codex artwork as well as all of the new Dark Eldar models have.

Which goes hand in hand with hoping they're not fashioned after the new the Dark Eldar Razorwings...

To be quite honest, I do like the razorwings. That said, I don't want the Scourges to look like them, so we sort of have an agreement there. I have faith, even if you don't like the beasts (I wouldn't blame you, but I do like them) all of the actual beings of Dark Eldar so far have looked really awesome.

Cannot WAIT for these. Must have plastic Shard Carbines.... Trying to convert them has been a pain. I'm just waiting at this point.

Once in college and once in band camp

Is there a timetable to this release?

really really soon i hope
I'm guessing maybe may time? sometime after greyknights no doubt.

hopefully see some pictures in maybe 2 or 3 weeks or I might just be being optimistic.

Got my fingers crossed for something this week.

What are these? the new pictures? wracks? haemonuculus (sp?)

I was just about to post these pics

My guess is that the 1st one is a talos/cronos and the second is a wrack/grotesque.

damn,... ninjaed. lol. was gonna throw these up in a new post. oh well.... looks like maybe talos/wrack models. the mask and pipe definitly say wrack/grotesque and the spikey carapace looks alot like concept art for the talos. (maybe its a dual pack...make either chronos or talos)

Both are same grotesque? In all latest preview like that it was same one model.
ps. where that was posted?

Was about to start a new thread but since its just an update of the same page on gw i decided to post here..seriously im so jealous of dark eldar players, their mini's have been well done so far compared to Gk's which have seen a storm over their new minis...

the pics can be found here
http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/article.jsp?aId=14300134a

My first impression was, both are Talos/Cronos, looks too big for a blown up head of a Grotesque for me.
Comparing it with the Codex art, it seems to be head and front claw of the Talos.

Codex wrote:Each one is part organic and part mechanical.

BTW @ BrookM: Time to make the title less vague now?

Yeah, it definitely looks like haemonculus stuff, but I really hope the venom is still coming out.

I don't think the second pic is a talos, though. It looks like it has a fleshy neck and the talos illustration makes it look like it's mostly metal, though it's described as being organic too so I dunno, maybe I'm wrong.

Finally it seems that GW are starting to publish teasers rather than keep every detailed picture secret before it's actually up on advance order (besides some blurry leaks). My opinion for the pictures would be the first is the Talos (chronos too hopefully?) and the second is a Grotesque. Wracks appear too small in the artwork (they are still the same body size as the Dark Eldar they were in their past lives) for such a long, fleshy and brutal looking neck.

Re: Teasers - FW did it before GW, so there!

Wow, SO awesome! Love that Haemonculi are really getting the works in this codex. Super duper excited, and preview pics mean it will really be showing up by June! Must have.... Venom.. Scourge Carbines.... and Haemonculi...

I'm pretty sure both are of the talos. They match the artwork perfectly. Looks pretty good. I'll hold of my "spikes should be sharp" comments until I see the whole thing

Actually, the more I look at it... I seriously think Grotesque for the helmet picture. The other thing is obviously the Talos forearm.

I consulted the Sheriff on the matter of spike sharpness as well as his preference for blunted spikes and he rather rudely replied, "Because it's DULL, you twit, it'll hurt more!"




After helping build some Chaos items for a friend and working on a Cryx army of my own I can assure you my fingertips do not mind slightly blunt spikes.

Yea I would say those are pics of the talos/cronos and the grotesque. I was hoping for a venom pic not very excited about the grotesques as I doubt I will ever use them lol. Can't wait to see more though.

I'm just super happy for more plastics! I will likely get some if they are plastic kits, just to assemble/paint.

That's a movement worth supporting with my hard earned money.

i'd say the one of the left is either Haemonculus, or the Wracks/Grotesques

The one on the right is 90% going to be the Talos arm after looking at the codex picture !

Actually, look again at the Codex pictures: This "Farseer helmet" head and armour fits perfectly the Talos art but would look misplaced on a pinhead Grotesque. Remember that the Talos is explicitely made of flesh and mechanics. I am quite certain now, both are from the Talos plastic kit.

Yeah, the grotesques have horizontal slits across their faces (as opposed to wracks, which have vertical slits). I'm agreeing with you here

Oh, I agree, for sure! I just figured that DE were more fond of maiming things on their spikes, not bashing people over the head with them
