You know all those rocks on the circle warlock will be metal. Solid pieces too, none of that hollow stuff. With tiny contact points.

Then to make matters more fun they should make the caster resin.

It's a great model visually, I just worry about how it will get put together. I still remember trying to build my Terminus....

More gators for me too though!

Well it does say metal and resin model. Hopefully the stones are the resin pieces, eh?

As cool as that gator caster is, I have a small legion army to expand, along with Skorne to build...as well as Cygnar, Protectorate, Cryx and Convergence for Warmachine.

It could be worse. You could have had to jump into a volcano to prove your loyalty to Lord Turok. Although I guess if you had to assemble Death Jack and Terminus back-to-back, the volcano might not be so bad.

So what is the release date for exigence? I need time to save...

I'm betting the rocks and cloak will be a single resin piece, but the main body and the rocks on the base being metal.

I hope they have enough common sense to put the metal on or around the base.

Then again, there's always Terminus' wings, or the Death Jack, or...

jumps into volcano.

I play Skorne, but after seeing these previews I wanna get a circle force and maybe trolls too! And that gator caster is awesome. When is Exigence outtttt

Maybe this will keep your Skorne itch going;




Wow, just terrific sculpt.

I need to know what its rules do... hopefully it sucks and Im not tempted to start skorne...

then again, Capt. Gunnbjorn ain't that great and I'm definitely tempted to start Trollbloods regardless >.<

Yes, join us! Military caps and bazookas!

I just downloaded the minions cards today. Dammit, I'm starting gator men. Oh, wait. I already decided on it.

Old man Xerxis has found a new way to keep kids off his lawn.

Forget Xerxis and the trolls, I want the pig gladiator! Is he out with this latest assortment, or is he coming later?

He wasnt listed with this recent batch that I'm aware of, and announcements are ~3 months in advance of release, so he's a ways out still I believe.

Oh, my lord. Yeah I'm sticking with Skorne... And maybe Circle.
That sculpt is incredible, maybe even better than I imagined from the art. But when I started it was between Skorne and circle so I'm just gonna do both, screw it

I dread all the gold trim I'll have to paint on that sucker.

Sometime, someday, someone should tell the Skorne that "Less is more."

I love how his flails are larger than he is now. Trollbloods be gettin' mad jealous they see the size of his weapons!

When will we know if brad-dawg is available at gencon? If he is, I will need to go grovelling to the dcm forums

Kinda' surprised at the positive reaction here... the detail's nice, but I feel it suffers even more than usual in PP's absurd sense of proportion and posing.

Yeah, that was my take. Rhino is interesting, but that weapon in particular... sheesh. Shoulder pads too, of course.

But I already have all the Khadors and a lots of Blindwater... and a Legion starter...

Yea, PP's scaling is getting a little nuts. Brad's cape is what, 10 yards of fabric? How could you even walk with that? It is like he is the bride at a druid themed wedding.

... which now will be the theme of the army I build for him with all the wolds....

I think I have a pretty high tolerance for "Heroic" scaling, but that Skorne guy is just bananas.
The mount is nice enough, but the rider has established some terrifying new hat/weapon/body ratio that should not be allowed to exist in our world.

my theory is the mount is the caster, and the caster is just a decoration he wears

I have to say, I love this theory. It'd be awesome to just leave Xerxis off and paint off the rhino. Boom, rhino warcaster.

But do they have nice military caps? And bazookas? Well, the Khadoran do have bazookas. But not as stylish as Gunnbjorn's!

All I know is, in the new Exigence preview video they describe Xerxis' rhino as the "ultimate wheelchair" pretty much guaranteeing I need to start a Skorne army.

I've gotta represent my people, and this is the best take on a "wheelchair" bound model, ever. ;-)

Okay, this may be unenlightened of me, not spending any significant amount of time around anyone who needs a wheelchair, but what sort of condition requires you have assistance with mobility, but...

-allows you to ride in combat with what appears to be no additional assistance (straps, harnesses, etc)? (I was pretty sure you normally use your legs for riding)

-allows you to carry a flail that's probably got around as much weight as you do, but is based on momentum... and do so one-handed.

Yeah, I know, suspension of disbelief, but that's asking the audience to meet you half-way, not blindly accept. This thing just frustrates me more, the more I look at it.

Yeah, we had this conversation with the local warmachine players, but they didn't want to hear it

I do get that this argument is repeated often (PP's sculpts are out of proportion)... but this is a pretty egregious example of it!

Love that rhino, though.

Warcasters are superhuman, not out of the realm of belief that a likely magical weapon doesn't weigh as much as it looks, think 'Mjolnir' of Marvel-verse Thor infamy.

Khador is all about nice military caps and bazookas, but no bazooka is as nice as Gunnbjorns....
