Yeah, I could see it, I just don't think we'll get it anyways. Stormraven doesn't seem very wolfy. I could see the hunter at least. I'll have to model a bunch of Long Fangs standing on the back of a rhino for mine.

Meh, not excited about this campaign box. I'll probably pick up the Kans off of Ebay is they're a good price, but that's probably it.

I would buy a giant mechawolf in a heartbeat. But let's see... legendary fenrisian monster. Gigantic wolf? Midgard Serpent? SWs are basically Vikings/Norse, so what makes sense? Wasn't there a Cerberus-like monster in Norse myth (not Fenris, something else)? Wolftron, Wolf-God of Wolfiness, armed with the Wolfblade and three Megawulf Cannons (that fire mecha-wolf pups armed with lasers), with a Lone Wolf riding him.

I doubt SW's will get a giant monster + handlers...
I think GW have pushed the SW silliness as far as it will go. But then, Centurions...

Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?

I could see the 'giant monster' being a Fenrisian Mammoth, armoured up and with a gun-platform howdah crewed and driven by wolves. It'd be a little odd, of course, but not inconceivable, and I'd prefer it to a mecha-wolf.

If Space Wolfs get a unique flyer, I hope the cockpit is modeled as a wolf head similar to the wolf helms they have. That could actually look pretty cool.

So I was right all along. That the Ork warboss model we saw was indeed Grukk. (even though the leaked image had him painted as Badmoonz)
I know it is similar to the AOBR warboss which I have 2, But i still wont mind getting this one too. I hope he is a bit bigger than the AOBR Warboss.
I was hopping some exclusive models in this rather than just 2 exclusives and the rest being the same general models.

This should be Larry Vela's new tag line. Everything he says is plausible, not true, but plausible. He makes up a bunch of crud that sounds plausible and is close enough to history to give him a shot at straight guessing it.

Rick Priestley said it best:
Bryan always said that if the studio ever had to mix with the manufacturing and sales part of the business it would destroy the studio. And I have to say – he wasn’t wrong there! The modern studio isn’t a studio in the same way; it isn’t a collection of artists and creatives sharing ideas and driving each other on. It’s become the promotions department of a toy company – things move on!

There are so many breaks with tradition in this set I'm inclined to believe they've thrown it together quickly to try and sell some cynics on the new edition. Plus I was already inclined to believe that anyway because I'm still pretty wound up about 7th (didn't buy it, and haven't spent on GW since it happened, when I was averaging 50-70 a month on GW plastiCrack up until then)

Another reason for not including Boyz is might be that so many parts from the set end up in ebay, sales of the main boyz pack must suffer. Ebay is stiill heaving with AoBR boyz and nobz so why put even more out there where they will keep people from buying boyz in a packet.

In fairness, he's entitled to claim whatever he likes, just as you and everyone else are entitled to choose to believe it or not.
What you are NOT allowed to do is demand proof that he is unwilling to give. Either take it at face value, or don't. I for one believe cincy is sincere in what he's saying, he's been around here and active too long to be a troll, and if this doesn't pan out as a thing, it would be more a fault with the source than the messenger.
