Not Nearly enough.


And yet every place where a gun could possibly go, there is one. It never ends.

Not at all! They have clearly established that big guns can have smaller ones attached, so there's clearly room to add a bunch of burst cannon arrays to those giant missile launchers…

I love all of the above...except the Lucius pattern head.

Maybe it's because I always associate it with the "squarer" Lucius pattern Warlord, but I just don't think it fits the "Beetleback" very well at all.

That and the FW show exclusive miniature have looked a bit off, certainly not the best way to showcase Forge World to solely GW customers (as few as those may be).

I wouldn't trust that magnet to not fall off at the slightest bump of the table, and crush whatever is under it. It would probably be good for a show model though, so you can swap weapons to try to sell the big mama jama.

I kind of want a head just to model a piece of terrain out of it. Does anyone know how big the head is? Ideally it'd be bunker-sized but I'm not sure...

Well this is it compared to the Princeps (the Mars pattern head but they'd be similar sized):

I still think the Mars Beta head is the best, but I am sad it doesn't come with a Princeps on foot like the other two. I got the show only model at least, but still.

Considering "Principessa" is the feminine version of "Princeps" and the words "Prince" and "Princess" are derived from these very Latin roots, it's not that far off TBH.

Would be nice, but I doubt it will happen without major changes.
As it currently stands they cannot even keep one store stocked, even warhamer world has you often ordering stuff via the computer to come by mail at a later date.

I think the limited edition FW miniature is the signal that FW products are coming for real into the GW stores. How they would sell them is another question.

Considering all the other augmentation and surgery they go through, becoming a 'princepssa' is just one extra snip in the process

Maybe it's done to improve their performance - if you are piloting a gigantic war machine locked into a throne for days at a time, the last thing you want distracting you is a bad case of itch down there!
