I'm still hoping for Epic Karchev 
Don't hold your breath, they already said only one 'Caster per faction in the book(3pics for the old main 4, new Rhulic for Mercs, and eVyros for Ret).

Seems alright to me. I was expecting them to run $150.

Honestly, I wasn't expecting them to be much more than the battle engines. And even then, I thought those were...pricey. Though I was glad I got mine for much cheaper (thank you amazon).

Couple of the battle engines are apparently $95 now. And I think the Stormwall itsellf probably hast twice as much stuff to it than the Throne of Everblight, as I see it. We also don't know if those little pod dealies are adding a good chunk to it.
PP also does price a bit around, "How many are people acutally going to buy of these?" a bit. I think they think they will be probably something folks only get one of most times, even though they are FA: 2.
And stuff.

Well they won't be released until July, so if you put $1 dollar a day into a jar, you will be able to afford it.

Ya, I saw that the legion battle engine was 95 (70 on amazon) which I thought was crazy too, for how maligned they are. And I get that PP prices around how much you'll buy of them and all that, it's still a lot of money. One of the main reasons I never got around to buying a pylon for my necrons, I couldn't justify the cost and they were very situationally used. While the colossals are seemingly awesome from what it sounds like so far, I'm betting they're going to be costly in points as well (there's just no way I see these costing less than a death jack, let alone a seether) so I see them falling into the niche of situational use as well. Obviously don't know until they're out, and I am still going to be buying one...they're just 50 bucks more than I expected them to be.

They fill the 18-20 point bracket, according to Privateer.

Thoughts on that Retribution colossal shown on blue print? Doesn't look too appetizing.....unless it can shoot a giant energy force ball between its shoulders (Physics would be The Retribution's theme?).

I often base my spending on the amount of enjoyment I will get out of the building/painting the model. I've had a blast painting my Cygnar Storm Strider, or as my wife calls it, the disco ball. With the Stormwall kit being that much more complex in the building/painting I'm sure it will be well worth the money, at least for me.

I thought the look of theirs was awesome! Plus Vyros on a HORSE.
I am painting him as an African American and free handing the old spice symbol on him somewhere

Hello, gamers, look at your warcaster, now back to me, now back at your warcaster, now back to me.
Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped using human magicks and switched to Retribution of Scyrah, he could be awesome like he’s me.
Look down, back up, where are you?
You’re on a battle engine with the warcaster your warcaster could be like.
What’s in your hand, back at me.
I have it, it’s a bus ticket to your FLGS.
Look again, the ticket is now new Ret models.
Anything is possible when you switch to Retribution of Scyrah and play like you got a pair.
I’m on a horse.

I don't think I will be getting one any time soon. If I do, though, I'm going to convert it to the max. Freehand everywhere and airbrushing too. Still, I think the Wraith Engine sounds a lot more, well, me.

This may be old news, but so far noone has mentioned it yet so I might as well. I was thumbing through March's No Quarter, and in the interview regarding the Colossals, the last paragraph listed the Hordes colossals. Orboros - Woldwrath Skorne - Mammoth Legion - Archangel Trollblood - Mountain King Considering I REALLY didn't want to see another Wold, this gives me quite the sad.

Orboros - Woldwrath

Legion - Archangel
Trollblood - Mountain King

I am more interested with who the casters the hordes factions are getting for colossals.

Considering Baldur is kinda sorta nearly dead, I hope they give him one of those legendary mantles I heard circulating the rumor mill. Call him Baldur, Avatar of the Devourer
