According to PB, resin will be only for collector stuff (and command models) from now on. Production has risen so much it is not viable for units and characters. They are remaking Bow Chosen to plastic for that reason.

Makes sense. Should be easier on the customers' wallets too.
I still remember the price for resin blood knights.

I am waiting for Old Dominion's black tearing female statue and burning angel statue, which have been introduced since the early announcement of the faction
But, there is no notice of retail release until October.
Are these the Caryatid and Canephor on the Army List?

So, with every single actual model we saw thus far being up on the shop, I guess we're going to have to wait for another wave of relases for the rest of Old Dominion's units?

As I understand it, the female statue is a caryatid and the burning angel statue is a canephor. We haven't seen any yet, but the buccepholoi are said to be undead minotaurs. Given the (presumed) scarcity of preserved minotaur parts, I'm hoping they will be heavily reinforced with bits of statues and rubble.
From the hints being dropped on the Discord, I don't think Canephors, Caryatids, or Buccepholoi are likely to release this year - here's hoping that's not the case, because I really want to see them on the table.

Someone from PB mentioned that around August there should be another catalog coming out to list Sept-Dec releases. Should include things like Onslaught Drones/Bound Clones, possibly an Order Knight kit, and some more OD stuff, among others. Given the somewhat sudden announcement of the Optio and non- LE Strategos models, maybe some other OD command models might get quietly put up in the coming months, too?

All of these previews are a few months old by now, but I don't think they actually ever got posted here, and I checked far back to see all the rest of the stuff that was revealed on the same Happy Hour
A new High Clone Executor (in Plastic!), and some renders and concept art for future Drones (Bound and Onslaught); all for the Spires, obviously.

I'm hoping they consider easing up on the new faction releases and focus more on model support for the existing ones.

I mean
They have things planned in the closest future for the Dweghom, the 100K and the Spires
So I think it's a pretty safe bet they're supporting the existing ones still

The W’adrhÅn one seems to be just a half of their One Player Starter Set, and the Old Dominion is basically the same, except with the Archimadrite exchanged for Xhilliarch. Very interesting

Lookin' good, all of it
Interesting that Old Dominion is getting an, uh, more "Roman" upgrade set. Automatically Appended Next Post: Also is it just me, or do the Imperial Rangers look like Longbowmen with an ugprade sprue tossed in?

Lots of great looking stuff there. Glad I didn't cave and get the resin bowchosen at the time as their new plastics are pretty damn good. Valkyries and Volva are really nice. Those Imperial Ranger do indeed look very similar to the Longbowmen. Not sure what to make of the new Noble Lord. Wardens are some of the better Dweghom and Old Dominion stuff continues to be awesome.
Stand out has to be the Crimson Tower and the Priory Commander.

Valkyries, unexpected but they look great!
The 100k stuff is very mixed to me, cav are awesome but the Rangers...that is a lazy decision to just modify the sculpt of Longbowmen to that little degree.

I don't think it's even modified tbh, I just think it's the Longbowmen kit with an upgrade sprue.
And you know what, I say it's a good decision. 100k don't need a dedicated plastic kit for a fourth different flavour of "dudes with crossbows/bows" at the moment, and just giving the Longbowmen/Hunters an upgrade sprue seems to do a serviceable job, while allowing to direct some more resources towards other factions

I'll admit to being a bit disappointed with those Longbowmen when they first came out anyway but it's definitely a case of my expectation being something different than the design being 'bad'. As a relatively elite(ish) unit in the Nobility faction I was anticipating something like Household troops rather than 'bandits'. Turns out the reason for this was previous lore for the unit being that they were in fact conscripted bandits and outlaws but that idea was marginally scrapped but the sculpts were done. Easy enough conversion with militia I suppose (when I get round to it).
This absolutely looks like an alternative arm and head kit for that same set.

Personally I always like the look of the Longbowmen, but that's probably personal bias due to the fact I'm a huge Blooosborne fan

I like how they are taking advantage of the stand-based unit layout with the Cenotaph and Initiates.
I dislike that they apparently aren't proofreading unit descriptions

Yeah, it's very interesting seeing attachements for units that take up multiple spots, or units with different equipement dependant on the rank, I hope we see more of that in the future. Should allow for some creative things.
Also it's very interesting that the new High Clone Executor is already painted up and the Bound Clones are already rendered, given just a while ago they were only present in the forms of an unfinished 3D model and concept sketches. Parabellum really works fast
