where did you get that pic?

Unfortunately, in the background we see some aberrants, and they all seems to the ones from Overkill, so there is probably no new kit for them. Hopefully they are unit upgrade and not a unit by themselves, cause they will look really stupid all having the same damn pose.

True that, but I'm willing to bet that the Overkill Cult sprues will be released separately like Kill Team Cassius was, which will make getting them (and a lot more basic Acolytes and Neophytes) pretty easy and likely keep them cheap enough to justify buying boxes of new multi-part stuff to kit out more special gear.

Oh god those drill bits

im creaming my pants i swear !

Only skimmed the thread and the first post isn't being updated, so I'll just ask.

Have we seen a price list yet? I wanna plan my order for my FLGS.

Prices flying around right now are $40 for the Neophyte and Acolyte boxes.

Not sure off the top of my head what the prices are for everything else.

I think the LE codex is something absurd like $195.

These are all so nice. Gee whiz...!

I've seen US $50 from some sources for the Hybrid boxes. US $50 for the Codex as well.

I'm hoping that's not the case... Really hoping that the $50 I've seen is CAD.

aberrant(s) look to be the same ones from the boardgame replicated :... that narrows possible kits :/

These dice are damned sexy

The boxes will be the same price as Sternguard, unless GW are pulling a 'Plastic Void Shield' pricing trick again on NZ (and AUS by extension, there's no way they won't screw one of us and not the other).

Thought there was a price list shown earlier but didn't see it skimming back.

Euro is 33. US 40 is what I remember seeing somewhere on here in the past few days.

Beautiful models!

Those are some nice dice. Not sure if they're different enough from my Warpshadow forum dice to purchase, though.

Tempting, though.

Sprue pics for Neophytes:

Spoiler:

Webber guns and seismic cannon

Acolytes:

Spoiler:

Freaky mutations:

Near the bottom-left of the Neophyte's bottom sprue - is that a revolver?

That or maybe we are getting Brood Brothers? Doubtful, but (mult-armed) men can dream...

From the Codex description on the NZ website:

"- rules for Genestealer Cults miniatures, the scavenged weapons they use to slaughter their victims, and army-building lists allowing for Hybrid and Brood Brother cultists drawn from the Astra Militarum;"

Information still not up on the GW UK page? Or am I jumping the gun because it's only 00:07...!

could be stub pistol, or just a variant autopistol

The Necromunda possibilities of this release are awesome for us long time 'Munda players...

I have an odd quibble with the acolytes. Who makes those clothes? Did they go to an imperial tailor and ask for a 6 limbed clothing item without raising suspicion?

Awww come on dude, don't you know why they are called Jeanstealers? They are obsessed with clothes and especially jeans!

Okay, I laughed at that far longer than I should have, thank you.

Still not getting the whole miner theme for the acolytes though. I'm cracking up thinking about a 6 armed genestealer punching in and out for their shift and having small talk over lunch.

Almost speechless at these minis. They are truly fantastic.

Webber! Web-Pistol? Giant rock-cutting/grinding things. A massive seismic cannon thingy? The Metamorphs - which, let's be fair kits, sounds like something from a late 90's kids show - are mutating into sort-of Tyranid creatures, like partial Lictor-i-sation, or something resembling the beginnings of a Venomthrope or Tyrant Guard. They're great!

No someone out there has the Codex and is holding back on us. STOP HOLDING BACK ON US!!!

1000 copies of the LE edition worldwide, they'll be sold out before they even go up on the US webstore...

Frankly the webbers are the best thing. I don't know for sure, but I think this is the first time GW has ever made models of the web guns!

It's on their blog post for 24/09 (NZ site obvy)

The old metal Termagants had them.

Love that leader miniature.

Also the DW: Overkill miniatures fit in seamlessly with the new plastics, exceptional work from the design studio and sculptors here.

Also the Chimaera/ Brood brother page:



Maybe we will see a cult upgrade sprue for the cadian shock troops/ vehicles with various heads and iconography?

No, they had Stranglewebs.

Very old school metal harlies had web pistols, and I think there was a Necromunda granger with a Webber.

Really happy to see them back though

Glad to see actual roller bits* on drilling equipment instead of the usual looney toons cone.


*Even if they aren't completely accurate, it's a step forward.

Decent shotguns, web-weapons, and enough awesome heads to keep me in INQ28 ideas for months - and we've not even seen the new vehicle yet. The Metamorphs aren't really my bag, but they'll also prove a good source of bitz. I'm actually going to have to restrain myself from overspending on them - kudos, GW, kudos.

Honestly, literally the only bad thing about this release is how pathetic these amazing Hybrids will make the roly-poly midget-man Cadian models look by comparison. Looking at that iPad preview pic with the Chimera and Brood Brother colour guide art on it and imagining how amazing a 2nd Ed-style Cadian/Tanith dual kit would be in the scale and quality of these...do it GW, dooo iiiiiiiit.

So buy Kreig instead, and add cult symbols ... do iiiiit...

I'm thinking that if you use these and fill in the chaos stars (or not), they'd look pretty bad ass for your Brood Brothers:

The new White Dwarf

https://www.games-workshop.com/en-NZ/White-Dwarf-October-2016-ENG

Genestealer Cult battle report confirmed

October’s White Dwarf is here and with it the hidden dynasties of the Genestealer Cults arise across the galaxy! In this second issue of the great new monthly White Dwarf we take an in-depth look at this most insidious of threats, with Ultimate Guide, Designers’ Notes and an exclusive new mission all dedicated to the Genestealer Cults (and you can see them take on the Deathwatch in this month’s Battle Report).

Looks like the new vehicle is in the background of the painting guide cover

Unless this is typical GW secrecy, this does not bode well for an Aberrant kit as all the Aberrant's in the background are the Overkill ones.
