If I'm not too mistaken, they'll be up at 11:00 AM (on their timezone, sooo about 11:00PM if you live in greenwich' controlled land).

Hmm. I'm in the Central US. It is 12:42pm at the time I am posting this. I'll have to Google the difference.
I seem to remember Ghaz posted the pre-orders for the Disciples of Tzeentch around this time last week.

Edit: Just checked, looks like about 3+ more hours to go. I am dying to know the contents of all the boxes

In about two and a half hours on the New Zealand site, approximately 4 EST.

As of right now, it's about an hour and forty-five minutes.

Thanx Ghaz, you're the best.

That big griff is quite something. I might have to find an elf and some wings to stick on it.

(I blanked out the SCE...)

Coulda left the riding of birds to the human faction... Ya know continuing with that whole thing they HAD going on..

I would love it if they had a human faction riding actual birds - chocobos, horseclaws, phorusrachids, dromornithids, etc...

Also final fantasy must be pissed they stole their chicken mounts.

There's always someone who gets a whiff of feathers or a beak and all they can think is 'chicken', as if their only reference to the natural world is the KFC bargain bucket four times a week. (As in, you must never have seen a proper chicken even, let alone any other bird) Y'all need to watch more David Attenborough.

And it's 'fell' swoop.

Those crossbow Stormcast raise more questions about the sold out Judicators. The different heads, larger crossbow and birdie for the prime could all be part of an new sprue packed with the existing kit(plus the oval bases). But why bother with new legs? Did GW feel they had to fill the sprue?

I am buying these and painting them up like tigers! (no mounts though) These are perfect for my Tiger Claw space marine concept! Add bolters and viola!

That's not even freakin funny I got like a mad phobia of birds...... We never had a good....... Relationship.

Attacked by a few gini hens a crow and a pidgin. Also there was this freaking quail nest outside my house a couple years ago.... My god those fees can run...... And bite they don't peck like a punch they stab and bite. Also there is like 20 eagles flying around in the summer who are not afraid to kill love stock. Devil creatures from the sky I tells ya

Birds also ALWAYS go for your face and they flap like demons from hell its self. But these birds lack a certain raptor look and more of a cluck cluck look.

The worse thing I ever seen in my life was a emu...... omg..... If I ever go to hell he will be there waiting for me.

You probably mean 'voilà', unless you're planning to equip your marines with string instruments.

I'm really liking the mount of this. I don't know if it's the sculpt or the paintjob, but something about the beasts face just screams "son, you done up" love it

It doesn't have that STUPID grin like all the other creatures do.

Thanks!

Preorders are up. No change in the number of models in any of the kits

An Exalted Flamer, all by itself, is the same cost the whole Burning Chariot?

Huh?!

Just a real bad example of showing all the possible builds of a kit. Buy the Tzeentch chariot for the flamer and throw the rest away

Super sad. I thought at the very least we'd see Flamers & Screamers go to 6 per box.
Yet another missed opportunity GW

Read the product description. It is not a separate kit.

With this kit you also receive the parts necessary to assemble a Herald of Tzeentch on Burning Chariot, accompanied by 3 Blue Horrors, supplied with a Citadel 120x92mm Oval base, 3 Citadel 25mm Round bases for the Horrors, and a Citadel 32mm Round base giving you the option to model the Herald of Tzeentch on foot. There are 49 components in total to this kit.

Pink horrors cost the same as blue horrors, so 25 euros. Weren't they worth that before?

Anyone have a link?

The Pre-Order USA section is showing...zero items for me?

US doesn't go on preorder until tomorrow. We're looking at the New Zealand preorders.

Yes. All they did was remove the 25mm bases and put in 32mm ones. I should note that that is an increase in dollars. They were $29.75, now they are $35
It is bad enough that GW is creating a scale creep, but they are making us pay for it too.
So much for re-box deals.

The chariot got new bases as well. The description says there is a 32mm for the Herald and three 25mm bases for the Blue horrors, plus a small oval for the E-Flamer

Well, that's just bad planning. The picture should reflect the description.

Sooo they only changed the price of the screamers and pink horrors and only for certain areas... weird.

Disappointed the Pinks, Screamers, and Flamers weren't increased in number. The LoC/Kairos and Changeling models look pretty sweet, though. Always love getting to see those 360 views.

No. The prices for NZ went up on all of the existing plastics. Here's the old prices:

Burning Chariot of Tzeentch - $64.00 NZ
Screamers of Tzeentch - $52.00 NZ
Pink Horrors of Tzeentch - $57.00 NZ
Flamers of Tzeentch - $41.00 NZ
The Changeling - $33.00 NZ

Through the power of price brackets I can determine that flamers are now $40AUD for 3, rather than ~$34AUD. (I don't know enough off hand to convert the others and am currently to lazy to check).

Also for a second there I got a bit worried. I couldn't see the Screamers in the thumbnail (or whatever the correct term it) for the SC! box. Clicking on it to see a larger images shows them though, as does the description. They just blend into the ice cliffs in the small image .

I stand corrected. Meh, looks they gone and done it. *shrugs* sucks I guess.

Though the changeling is a dead give-away that it would get more expensive.

Chickens... Chickens everywhere.

Two-headed, sword weilding chickens
Dog chickens
Chickens on a tenticle disc
Chickens you can ride

WTF is going on with AoS?

I, for one, plan on only getting 2 Blue Horror boxes.
I already have 5 from the Chariot kit. I will be painting some of them Pink (because I refuse to participate in scale creep and the new Blues are still bigger than the old metal Pinks).

I also plan to stretch out the Brims by cutting a few pairs apart and putting them on bases of their own (with some extra flames, of course)
When I am done, I'll have this:

9 Pinks, (1 with an Icon using the chariot Herald's staff)
16 Blues
24+ Brimstones (at least 20 yellow pairs & singles, 2 pink singles and 4 blue singles)

The pink and blue single Brims will act as unit fillers for my Pink and Blue units, since my lists all require 11 Pinks or 22 Blues

One may say that the setting has... chickened out.

But in all seriousness, tzaangors for tzeentch and gryph-hounds, and gryph-chargers. I find them awesome.

Preorders go up at 10am in each region, so you can see everything a bit early by changing it to the NZ site
