Did Fulgrim Just Behead Ferrus?
|
Is it just me, or do they look like single piece models rather than multipart?

Edit: got ninjaed with the quote clearing it up
We dont know anything about their poseability. Bodies could be like the new Primaris'. Anyway looking at the plastic's colour these do not seem to be the final models but pre-production miniatures.
But good that Necro gets 6+ plastic gangs basically right from the start Who would have thought last year?

If those are from the starter set, which it appears they are, those ones might not be multi-part. Same as previous boxed releases.

Keep in mind that the single pose models in the 40k starter sets are also 'multi-part', but aren't that posable. So I'm curious to see what will happen here.
Well...either way I'm totally happy here!

Yeah, I was assuming those particular models are monopose ones for the starter set.

The Dark Imperium models don't come with options but the Necromunda ones will - according to the WarCom info.
Tbh anything else would make no sense for Necromunda. You need lots of different weapons. It is as vital to the game as a pitch to Blood Bowl.
I cannot see them going back to models without options, that would be nonsense.
These are not the final kits...

I am not sure how they managed to get four sets of two models identical from multi part, presumably also multi posed, models.
Usually GW uses the words multi part to mean multi posed models, instead of what the word really means, been many parts, but I am puzzled on how identical all the models shown are, maybe indeed the starter box models will be monoposed?

It wouldn't surprise me if the starter set models are assorted singlepose, with later gang boxes being multipart.

I assumed they just showed the models built to match the 4 painted ones they were showing off, because they don't want to show off any more yet. Necromunda needs options, as said. I'm not sure they'll have specific starter gangs, I assume the gangs in the starter will be the usual Escher and Goliath gangs, and they'll be released separately later, like with blood Bowl.

Interesting. Models look pretty good, but the scale creep on the Goliaths could have unfortunate game implications (either better stats or lack of better stats, which people will complain about either way)
Not sure why the blurb mentions cybernetics and gene-mods- those weren't widely available for the baseline gangs, but that makes it sounds like basic gear assumptions.
Is this Forgeworld or GW? Makes a big difference in availability, and expanding the line beyond the box sets (which, since they are plastic, to me suggests GW)

Specialist Games is part of FW, but they sell stuff via GW and retailers etc (see Blood Bowl).

I'm assuming the four models shown are pre-production models; could be resins, could be that they don't have enough done yet for a full sprue.
It looks to me like there's joints on the arms, so you should be able to give that Escher with an autogun a lasgun, shotgun, flamer, etc...

What I see is a perfect conversion material for Astra Militarum/Chaos Cultists/Inquisition in 40k. Can't wait to see these multi part plastic boxes, but I expect some monopose like the Blood Bowl teams.
I wonder if they will include juves. I'm not sure it will be the case, but whatever, honestly. Sooo many things to play with now...can you imagine what you can do with those and the other existing ?

I would bet money on a similar approach to the original Necromunda actually - essentially monopose w/ optional weapons being push-fit. It'd be nice if they threw in different heads, but I doubt it.

Other way round. FW is part of the Specialist Games.

Kinda what I was thinking.
E.G. Escher Ganger is single pose but you can attach either an autogun, lasgun or shotgun.

Shame these look like they'll look oversized compared to the original models. Would've been nice to supplement our old gangs rather than have us replace them completely. Love all the detail they've been able to cram on them this time though.

They are described as multipart kits. I'd imagine they'd be like every other kit GW describes as a multipart kit rather than the most disappointing version you can imagine

If there is a lasgun possibility, then say hello to the Xenonian Regiment (the first one on the last line on the picture below)

People do come in different sizes though, so a good mix wouldn't look too outlandish.

Well I'm in.
I had about six gangs back in the old days, unloaded it all... pretty much assumed I'd never play again.
Re-collected Escher, Cawdor, Redemption, Delaque and Spyerers over the last few years. Just need to find time to paint 'em
