I partly disagree with his description though. It looks to be
- Skyweaver Jetbikes in the back and on the left side, rider and passenger in a row, the latter armed with a cc weapon ready to strike
- Starweaver transport/heavy support vehicle on the right side, Vyper chassis-shape but larger, with a turret or passenger compartment behind two riders sitting in the cockpit next to each other
- He is totally right with the Deathjester, new model

Wow. That skyweaver looks... Incredibly stupid.

I agree, all 5 pixels look terrible!

I'm going to hold off on my opinions on the Starweaver until I can actually see the Starweaver

Worst comes to worst I can simply convert it, I've been wanting a Harlequin army for a long time... and if I get a legit one... Hell I'd actually consider buying things from GW and not online... some things...
There are still a few oldies I want for the army And I still got like all the troops I think I'll need, maybe 1 more box needed.
But I am excited. Haven't been stoked about a 40k army for a long, long time

Agreed. Been well looking forward to Harlequins. Reckoning the starweaver will be some sort of variation on or in the vein of the DE Venom. Worse comes to the worst and it really sucks - convert it or a venom to be more........'Quin-ey....

And the Venom kit looks like its begging for conversion... Vyper would have been a little harder, but they're all the same platform.

Harlequins used to have the Venom, confused why they didn't get it back...
I assumed this new tank will be a duel thing, either transport or it'll get a gun and just shoot (eg Raider/Ravager dealie) I'm calling it.
I can't imagine why they'd not get an HQ (be it the Shadowseer or bringing back the Great Harlequin of old).
I imagine it will look something like;
HQ - Shadowseer (probably) or Great Harlequin/Special Character/Something New
Elite - Maybe Shadowseer, Solitare, Death Jesters
Troops- Troupes with option of transport Starweaver
Fast Attack - bikes
Heavy Support - Starweaver with big gun

Hmm, will there be Harlequin Land Raiders?

Pepperidge Farms remembers...


I don't know why anyone even would remotely consider Harlequin Land Raiders to happen now.

Unbound baby!

Harlie Raiders are totes already a thing!

seen some nice Venom conversions out there while trawling through the net......a fair number were with the Harlis in mind.

Was about to post that myself.

Looks good, but how does that transport an entire troupe?

Ninja'd and duplicated above post.

Anyway - will be getting me one of those!

LOL even the jetbikes have different masks...

Will be buying many, they look fantastic.

it dont as the transport is a star weaver (acording to wd53) not a sky weaver. Even so they look good very dynamic.

It doesn't?

Harlie rules from this weeks Dwarf state that they can take a Starweaver as dedicated. This leaked cover has Skyweavers plastered all over it. Different things. My guess, these are "simply" fancy 2 Wound Jetbikes.

Damn! Those are sexy!

Oh those look good.

So how long before the Eldar players use them instead of the old Jetbikes?

Then these don't look like a dual Sky- and Starweaver kit IMHO.

Separate kits with a similar base part of the model perhaps?

My poor bank account... just pre-ordered the last round. Notably, it appears the Troupe and Solitaire are "out of stock" on the US GW website. Not sure whether that's for real.

Those do look nice indeed, interestingly the design seems to be a combination of the Vyper, DE Jetbike and the unreleased prototype Eldar Jetbike.

Very cool stuff, really love the fact they kept the canopy mask idea from the old Harlie Jetbike.

They're at least out of stock in the US until the next shipment hits the states.

Hmm, can't wait for GW to also one day release some Exodites!

Can we get the name of the thread changed to Harlequins instead of Eldar? Wrong faction at this point.

Solitaire gone out of stock in the UK too and bizarrely one of the troupe selections, but not the other

I can see them vastly underestimating demand for these.

As someone who will be getting everything, does anyone know if there's any leaks about a battleforce/army box? As much as I like to spend full retail and bleed a little each week, it would really help me out if I could buy it all in one go with a little discount to boot.
