Yeah after a new plastic kit for the Acheron and Castigator, Mechanicum Knights going full or partially resin would be disappointing.

Gonna go with a new plastic kit and in a similar fashion to the Cerastus variants kit.

I also think that plastic kit would make a sense and I would love to see one. My point was that the models in the picture do not look like plastic models because there are several details that don't look they came from steel mold, such as the curved cog trim, heads and weapons. It is possible that they are a resin conversion kit or pre-production 3D-prints but I am almost certain that the models in the picture are not plastic. I would love to be wrong.

Another option is a plastic upgrade kit to be bundled into a new questoris box.
As an aside, looks like the Open Engine War cards have sold out from GW

I will be honestly suprised if it turns out to be a plastic upgrade sprue

Open Engine cards were available for stockists as well, they weren't completely limited to webstore, so many retailers will still have them in stock.

Must admit that there is something about those photos...
You could be right in that Forgeworld will handle the Mechanicus Knights while GW work on a new titan...

This is war, not a beauty contest!
I prefer the non-mechanicus models, being honest, but these seem a more simplified design where one doesn't need to worry about how they arm them.

The original Questoris do look a bit nicer, I decided this immediately but I can't quite put my finger on why. Maybe the decorative bits on the AM Knights are just more suited to 28mm scale or something, cos I do like the 40K Questoris. Still, won't complain about this release. maybe I'll skip them but they're still a welcome addition to the range.

Nah they cut corner and messed up the Avenger gatling gun bits on the questoris. And they show the more detailed prototype one in the box and in the initial reveal photo.

I'm sure that the digital files for all the "new" knights will be used for titanicus. this bodes well for the rest of the knightly range to get filled out.

I agree, these definitely don't look like the plastic models, because the knee and thigh plates don't match the current plastic designs. Those parts do have more in common with the original Questoris knight promo shots, indicating that they could be pre-production prints as well.

Well, we know all 3 questoris knights are on entirely on one sprue, so it does seem likely to be a resin kit or they re-used sections from the questoris for the sprue, we'll see.

They've explained numerous times that it doesn't work that way and that they basically have to resculpt the majority of everything from one game to another in order to support proper production, having the files for one scale doesn't really get them very far for the other scale.

I can confirm this. I'm using 3D Prints for Tabletop and Wargaming in Small Scales and rescaling doesn't work on every Model, on very few to be honest.

Cheer up chicken; if FW are handling this as a resin release then GW might be focusing on a new plastic kit...

If that was resin then Atrapos is next, the actual Titan hunter. Not table decoration.

The Asterius, and that's everything (if we don't count Armigers). I'm sure they'll find a way to not release a brand new design immediately after whatever is last, Atropos or Asterius. Maybe they'll start releasing boxes with different combinations of existing minis or something.

Looks like they're meaningfully different from the Questoris, which I like. It'll be interesting to see if those Concussive weapons on them could be used for some wacky maneuver trolling shenanigans.

They sound cool, the ability to regenerate hull points is awesome. Only downside now is waiting to see the point costs for everything.

Given that the grav-guns are the piddly little things mounted on their carapaces, I will be immensely amused if they have something like 3" range which will cause a large portion of thus shaken Titans to stumble on the knights themselves

Ooo, nice. Quite different to your standard Questoris knights. A full banner of Styrix Knights gives you 12 voidbreaker shots - not to be sniffed at. Also, hints nicely towards what the Warlord Volkite Cannon may look like.
I also wonder if they'll bring the Blessed Autosimulacra to the Asterios at some point? May be a good excuse to re-work the Acastus Class perhaps...

 I think the rational is because the graviton blast will muck about the Titan's suspensors and gyroscopic stablisers meaning they'll stumble all over the place. It'll create some amusing situations if it does have a very short range. No mention to the Irad cleaners on the siege claws but I suppose they're pretty much anti-infantry weapons.

Ah well. At least an upside is you'll have a load of spare Knight Questoris weapons to make things like dual Avenger Cannon Knights and Knight Crusaders, etc.
