I don't think so. They're in QK already.

That's why I waited haha. I had the stream on my phone for audio and Facebook and Twitter for pictures.

Once Warhammer dies, can we rename this site ThakaThaka?

Because of the similarities to Naffatun armour?
I guess that's just a style direction for Haqq in general.

They definitely look like 4-2 MI now. Looking forward to a clearer pic. Surprised that the HMG seems to have a bare arm?
Can almost do my 'all new model' QK list now. Barring Hafzas, they scale well with the new stuff anyway.

Leila looks great as well. If Yu Jing hadn't had such a great release year this would have been the Year of Haqq releases!

Wow, that new Garuda design looks so much better! Hopefully it won't be quite the pain in the butt the original was to assemble.

Everything looks really god though, as usual. I don't see a single one that I don't like. One question though. Is the TAskmaster supposed to be classed as a mini TAG like the Gecko, or is it just really heavy armor, like the Azra'il and the new Ahl Fassed?

It's a S5 heavy infantry, like the Azra'il, Ahl Fassed, Yan Huo etc.

Fantastic!

When will that O-Yoroi pilot be released? She'll make for an excellent tank commander alongside the Bootlegs I got.

That's great news! That means he won't have TAG pricing. That's definitely going in my collection then.

Is the Data Conclave the only on who recorded? Because the sound is just awful, its really hard to hear whats being said.

Not necessarily. The render is pretty beefy, in a way that the others aren't.

Thank you very much to everyone posting info - and pics! - here!

Much appreciated!

So excited for the Vedic Aleph stuff! Those renders and dossiers look fantastic! Exciting to get new Tactbots!

New Masterclass book later this year.

Will explain how to paint each faction step by step with additional info I.E. weathering.

Big who cares. Angel's books only sell because of name recognition and an exclusive model at this point.

Well someone thinks their opinion = everyone else's.

I'm looking forward to the book. The first was a huge help to me and i still reference it now. Could not care less what the mini will be, and unless i can use it on the table will be ebaying it for something i can.

Interesting. Djanbazans are nice, but not so nice that I'll make a priority of getting them. The Dire Foes 6 Box OTOH, very cool. It has been a while since CB had a seated mini... One of the Post-Human Proxies IIRC.

Alpharius, no, the Djanbazan are not going into the Al-Medinat.

I'd like to see CB make a Fantasy Game. The minis would be superb. Plus, it would mean less bloat to Infinity.

Mañana, por supuesto

November at the earliest, but CB won't announce the October releases (available in November) until, well, October. Check back then.

Stupid unsupported brainfart re: CB fantasy.
I'm wondering if they go back and do a 15mm mass battle fantasy line. After all, they got their start doing historicals in that scale, IIRC, and it'd make big, impressive ranks easier...

Djanbazan and Dire Foes 6 are outstanding.

Conversion idea since the Djanbazan box is missing an AP Rifle and the armour is essentially Naffatun armour with some extra plates on the shoulderpads. Get the female, helmetless Naffatun. Get an extra Djanbazan Doctor and Hacker. Put the Doctors pistol arm and hackers AP Rifle arm on the female Naffatun. Bam, AP rifle in a cool action pose.

When asked years ago about making their 28mm fantasy line WarCrow into a game. They said we love to if we were millionaires, looks like it is finally time.

Thanks for sharing folks

Dunno if I need a new Bakunin starter but it looks like a nice batch. Those Taskmasters though....dang. My Bakunin will finally have a heavy to rival my corregidor geckos.

Fantasy game? Intrigued. I love infinity minis. Wonder if they'll have a manga aesthetic for fantasy or something totally different?

Thanks for all the pics and info, folks!

That Bakunin Taskmaster is amazing. Damn. I'm not a Nomad fan, but I may have to pick that up. It'll be interesting to see the new starter box with the "Colussus" Morlock.

I'm intrigued by thought of a fantasy game. I've greatly missed Confrontation, and I could see Corvus Belli creating a game of equal creativity and wonder.

I thought that the Colossus Morlock was a nice touch.

Initially, I was thinking that it was a bit of an odd direction, but when you think about it, if we had gene-splicing today, some lunatic would want to make themselves into their favourite mutant superhero.

New boxed set: Wolverine, Sabertooth, Beast and Angel.

Not Angel! I said Angel!

I also found hi res pics of the dire foes:

I was hoping...I noticed that the QK logo wasn't on their dossier. So I am full of unwarranted hope.

But the QK logo is on the actual Djanbazan on the dossier, on his shoulder. A few of the dossiers didn't have the sectorial logos for some reason.

Also seems to be actually sculpted into the shoulder pad the way they did on the new Azra'il as well.

Do a Google search for "Warcrow miniatures", don't worry I'll wait for you.

Those were done before all the retired Infinity minis were done. One can only imagine what they'd do now assuming similar themes and aesthetics.

CB's and Adam Poots wish lists are out to ruin me financially I see.

Iain.

i bought a few Warcow minis, but they didn't grab me the same way that even the first run of Infinity minis did...
if they are going to redo Fantasy minis, they had better step-up their game...

the new Infinity renders look amazing...
i hope that O-Yoroi pilot is out in time for the local con next month...
Fantization always gets my money at events, and they carry Infinity

thanks for sharing...

cheers

Well in warcrows defence they were far older than the Infinity miniatures line in its infancy, done as a distraction from the endless 15mm sculpting.

If they do a fantasy line now, it will be in par with what they produce now.

It won't be. We already know August and Septembers releases, which really are September and Octobers releases when they actually come out.
