Well, they do live in sunless, toxic environments.

So I doubt we'll be getting new terrain to go with these.

Don't do this to me guys, end of this year or end of next year?!
Also I think they had the same guy do these as has been doing the Blood Bowl models and some HH stuff recently, not a style I'm fond of personally so I'm hoping we get to see some bare plastics or at least some renders.

The Goliaths are glorious. Eschers... are disappointing. I'm hoping that's just the paintjob, but they're missing the pop! of the original models.
Multi-part plastics to reinforce my existing gangs is certainly exciting.

The sculptor who did the Gal Vobrak and Palatine Blades has been working on Necromunda stuff.
I think its fairly random how things get painted in FW, sometimes it goes to an official painter, sometimes one of factory people do them.

He does look very small. He looks to be mounted on the same sized base as the the one above.

I've been away from GW for quite a while now, what the hell is with those godawful paint jobs?
Are they employing 6-year-olds of for their promo figures or something?
Other than that, here's hoping that it captures the spirit and depth of the original.

One does wonder if they're just updating the old rules, or perhaps going after Infinity's depth?
I've not played Infinity before, but I'm open to the idea.

There are some pics of the bare plastics from people there, but only the models we've already seen, and some bases:

The bases above are plainer. We may yet see new terrain to go with them.
Though I'd be happy enough with more or the same from Shadow War.

Yeah, the bare plastics look fantastic in my opinion. The painted ones are okay (better than my painting anyway) but don't show them as well as the plastics unfortunately.

Ooh, custom bases, consider me corrected. It may hint towards more terrain, but again, I doubt it, as we've got a crapton of industrial terrain a few months ago that's quite nice for Necromunda.
I do hope that these bases are sharper than the current selection of themed bases out there, they're nice, but soft on detail.

Do you know what maybe my favourite thing about the plastics is? Those Escher girls are fething ripped, look at the arm on that rifle girl. So glad they didn't end up all willowy and dainty.
