I love this nice display quality bases and game pieces. They only do them for the Primarchs and the character series. Why so much hate?

Internet hyperbole is the worst thing in the history of everything!

Or in other words, no hate, just an opinion and not much love for an oversized redonkulous base!

I'm 50/50 on the big bases. Don't like this one. I like how the base is based on a base.

Please, no "Yo dawg..." attempts here!

Please provide evidence of "hate".

I'm hoping typhus as if that's mortarion I'd be disappointed!

**vegeta365**

It's clearly Thphon, as Mortarion is robed and in pictures looks nothing like this.

For balance, I love the scenic bases. They are gorgeous and add to the series, cabinet displaying these is great. You can remove for gaming which covers both sides of the coin.

I do see the point on cost, but am not convinced the cost would be much cheaper without. Maybe £5.

Yes, you have spoilt the fun. Well done, good bloke :(

And release those Mechanicum guys finally... maybe...?

Yeah, I have been waiting for those to be released since we saw pictures of them from GD Italy. I need them to build a count as Inquisition force for my IG.

**Joyboozer**

What happened to the night lord troops they showed?

**Fireball**

I like that Forgeworld shows us sculpts of future releases, but you never know when something will come out. We have seen the Night Lords already, but not Typhon. Now it seems Typhon still gets an earlier release. I am fine with that ... surprises are good sometimes!

They will be released at some point. We do not know when. I'm looking forward to the AdMech miniatures myself.

**Bull0**

That xmas jigsaw model is really lovely. I find the fact that they've hosted all three images with quite-easy-to-find file names quite charming

Those Iron hands are bad ass.

Just released in time! Was about to place an order for some standard breecher marines that i was going cover in brass etching to convert into iron hands.
Really cracking looking models, well chuffed. Now just need more ad mech!

**gianlucafiorentini123**

Loving Typhon probably pick him up as a Nurgle Chaos Lord. DG and IH seem to get a lot of attention though, would love to see some more models for the other legions.

**Bronzefists42**

So uh when does Pre Heresy Kharn get a model?... I'll wait...

Rats! I had another one ready to go....

New stuff spotted for you Night Lords fans

Legion MK II shoulder pads:

Night Lords Night Raptors:

The Night Raptors are a caste apart from the Night Lords Legion – not so much a martial elite as a bloody coterie of murderers wedded together by similar proclivities and chosen styles of warfare. The Night Raptors are equipped with jump packs and an array of close combat weapon, all of which they use to bring unfettered savagery down upon the heads of their foes in a single overwhelming onslaught.

**Joyboozer**

Aw man just when I realised I couldn't afford anything new until after Christmas. So tempting...

**Col. Dash**

Paint scheme isn't dark enough in my opinion but the models look nice. Will have to wait and save up a bit more if I go that route instead of buying normal raptors and converting them. Will have to see the price point difference.

**badgermeister**

a portion of batwing eyebrows anyone?

i'd prefer them with leering daemonic skull helms painted on the destroyer style helmets - thank horus for eBay!

hopefully this draws us towards the myrmidon's release for early next week?

**Armorum Ferrum**

I'm still hoping for the Red Butchers to be released soon ! But I can't say I like the Night Lords Raptors

**Bull0**

Gotta say when I think Night Lords I think "shadowy killers" rather than "skin-wearing berserkers", but I'm not terribly well-informed to be honest. I like the models on their own merit, though.

**Ignatius-Grulgor**

Had high hopes for the raptors, then they gave us massive bat eye brows, think I'll pass night lords just moved way down the which legion to get list, especially if their iconic unit looks like that. Not a fan of some of the more goofy than gory skin bits slapped on.

**Ouze**

More pictures of the Night Raptors:

---

For me, these are a swing and a miss. I like a lot of stuff about them but those wings on the front of the helmet are a deal killer. I think they might be OK if they were painted a different color... maybe.

**Alpharius**

They do suffer a bit from "Awkward Looking Action Pose" syndrome though.

And those silly helmets aren't helping!

**gorgon**

*shrug* I actually think the helmets are a huge improvement from most of the NL models we've seen from GW.
