Too late. I am starting to see uboxing/review videos popping up all in my youtube feed.
I already have a 28mm Leviathan, that I will use as a Warhound, so I won't be getting this. However, this was a cash cow that GW should have cashed in on a long time ago. And I will give them credit where it's due, it is a nice model.

They're not 85 pounds RRP; they're 110 pounds as you need the codex to go along with it.

Or 85 GBP if you have no intent to use the model in a game of WH 40K.
This is the first GW model that I have seen in a long time that I am tempted to get, just to paint it up and maybe use it in an RPG.

Do you also need the escalation supplement or do they actually include the relevant rules for super heavies in the Codex?

whats that? firing overwatch means you cant fire in your next shooting phase? whoa that sounds cool, it will make a lot of armies/lists viable - more people at the flgs having fun. good for the game right.
until every tau unit gets special rule'd around it.

Up ! Because there are some moves behind the scene.
The Dark Vengence starter box may be removed from the stores in following days.
According to a Faeit212 source, this appears to be the case at least in Netherlands :
http://natfka.blogspot.fr/2014/03/confirmed-dark-vengeance-is-going-away.html
So these rumors of a new edition (7th or patched V6.5) appear to be more than a vaporous idea.
There is still no "confirmation" of the new starter box content.

Was the Helbrute the only DV-only model in DV?
If so, ceasing the set isn't as much a problem as the loss of AoBR.

Nope. The Chosen with Kranon (Warlord) were also unique so far. Cultists are available only as a small 5-guys package without options. So I think the DV package was much more interesting than AoBR with the Deffcoptas being the only unit not available otherwise.

They just came out with an independent Helbrute/Chaos Dread kit a week or two ago.
http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440208a&prodId=prod2380179a
The possible dropping of the DV set may have lead to that individual non-starter version being made.

Arent the Ravenwing bikers pretty unique as well? With those poses and everything?
And if they dropped the DV kit, Chaos players would have to look for ebay to get their hands on those awesome looking Chosen models as well.
But then again GW is known for doing this, see AoBR defkoptas and the MM-dread.

The difference is they have a plastic kit already whereas the Brute didn't. The individual poses aren't important but rather the availability of a plastic kit to purchase... but as you pointed out, the lack of a kit doesn't necessarily mean they won't discontinue it. In the end, it's still just a rumor but one that the small signs are pointing to more and more as the months roll by. I personally think they'll just swap out the rulebook instead of retooling a whole new kit but that is just my guess.

They just released a supplement making good use of certain models in the DV box.
Perhaps that was a tactic to sell out most of the DV stock before putting it down.

If they wanted to sell most of the DV stock they would have kept it on the shelf for more than the month or so the Crimson Slaughter supplement was around. I'm still thinking this is a reboxing with an updated rulebook, with FAQs and such rolled in.
