Maybe it is because of the paint job, but not too impressed. Look like an action figure. And I must say that it is a terrible idea to release these primarchs before we even got plastic greater daemons.

Just imagine if he said "Plastic Squats" instead. What kind of uproar that would have made.  Got to admit, when he first covered up the poster we thought they wouldn't show anything, then they show a sprue, then we are thinking may then I was thinking they would show a box in another recycling bin, but not the complete model. Well done. Didn't think they could top this and then the "plastic sisters of battle". I thought when I herd "sisters" it would be Sisters of Silence, but nope. How are they ever going to top this now? So simple, but yet so elegant and awesome.

I struggle to believe they'd joke about plastic Sisters just because the backlash would be severe but they never specified a date so they have infinite time on a release window so who knows. Many things are coming out and my money just can't handle it!

But they did. Something like "this is suppose to be a few months away". So my guess a few would be 6 months or less from now.

The easiest logical route would take us to new CSM vehicle upgrade sprue. But that would be too easy 
Besides, he daid: "THAT shouldn`t be here", so everything else...?

No, it's because there's plastic Thousand Sons coming in the next Heresy boxed game, and they know that's been leaked all over the shop.

In general discussions we're talking about which armies they will bring back next and I am 100% certain they would bring back Sisters and Kroot. We have our sisters "tease" more like confirmation. Now we need our Kroot tease.

Why? Magnus has never been depicted as a giant Magic Chicken. I think it would be a wasted opportunity to shoehorn both original concepts into a single kit. LoC will arrive next year I'd think if Tzeentch is getting the loving.

Humor is not understood on this forum. You need to understand that. People just don't get it here for some reason. I'm not even joking. Being 100% serious unfortunately.

Given there new angle of marketing i would be very very surprised if they are actually trolling. They may have tried to pull it off as a troll/joke but I would be fairly confident in saying that Plastic sisters are on the way at some stage in the next 12 months.

Well as a Daemon primarch he can likely be used by several factions and maybe even games set around 30k - after or during Prospero Burns.
As with Genestealer Cults its refreshing to see GW not navel gazing and making just more and more Marines - usually of the same old Chapters.
I would think that they will sell very well - better than say a box of different coloured marines 
Did they sell many Nagashm or Glotkin? And thats for a whole range that was dying.
That's why I bring it up, I really think one of the reasons Fantasy was killed is GW invested too much in (very very nice) expensive kits that players would buy one of at best. The flying Vampire throne ghost army thing for example.
A box of (dare I say it?) Battle Sisters or new IG or something might only have the same number of buyers but those buyers would get 5, 10 or 20 of them. The thought process for Maguns would be:
Do I play 40k?
Do I play Chaos marines?
Do I play 1000 Sons?
Do I want this?
Can I afford it?
Will it be effective in a game?
So you might not even get all of the 1k Son players out there.
Now there will be some people whose process is:
Damn this is sweet
I will buy it
I will start a new 1000 Sons army
But will there be enough to make this profitable?
I dunno.
I'd say GW knows what they're doing but Age of Sigmar says (SCREAMS!) otherwise.
What about those who are not neccesarily starting an army, but just buy miniatures for what they see as it's cool factor? Automatically Appended Next Post: Looks like I'll be starting Thousand Sons to go with my Deathguard and Khorne Demonkin.
I wonder how soon before Emperor's Children appear again.

How very interesting!
I initially thought the skin looked very strange in red but the video image shows it to be the much more standard Tzeentch daemon color scheme.
One thought I'm having right now is: It's very possible that the new chaos will no longer be a single CSM codex, but instead will be broken up into seperate legion codicies, the same way space marines are broken into chapters, perhaps each having it's own unique models and of course primarch. That would be unbelievably good

They definitely split up forces into god-specific ones in AoS, while also leaving the generic choices in a separate list (and still able to take marks to fit with any of the god-specific forces). 40k isn't AoS, but that isn't the only hint we've had either.
