Sorry, this information comes from Faeit. But i think it needs a thread to see if anyone knows something.

its faeit from an anom source, so I realy doubt it. If true it would be great, but I think they've mistaken the book for a model.

Black library had a model once for him. It could be a combo with the book to increase sales however Eisenhorn is no where near the timeline of heresy or current 40k for him to have playable rules unless he’s a demon mini now.

Minor amounts of handwavium can get him nto into 8th Edition 40k (which I think is about ~100 years into the future of 7th Edition 40k).

1. Juvenat treatments combined with extensive augmetics have extended his life far past a baseline human.
2. A warp transit gone wrong brought him 100 years into the future.
3. To buy himself some time to get the TRUE heretics, he made a deal with a warp entity to gain additional lifespan.
4. He's just super old and cranky. Seriously, the average lifespan for a baseline human seems to vary from a few decades to a few centuries depending on how many resources you can bring to bear on keeping yourself alive.

Who knows? The third trilogy still needs to be written for two thirds, whenever the feth he gets around to fething writing it already, so anything can still happen.

You know you don't need character to be alive in current time to have rules and gw has long long history of such rules

Exactly.

I mean, there's no way Marbo is running around post-Indomitus Crusade, right?
And Aun'va and Tycho have been dead for ages, but we're still allowed to play with their models.

I don't see a character being dead in whatever current year the story is taking place as being a sound argument against their getting a model.

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

Aun'va was killed but they also immediately ruined it by giving him body doubles/holograms.

Yarrick is much older than Eisenhorn and also still around in 8th, so don't worry about that. Tau characters are also still around despite being long past the maximum lifespan for their species. In the grim darkness of the far future, age is nothing but an irrelevant number. As long as the plots needs Eisenhorn, there will be Eisenhorn.

I'd certainly love to see an Eisenhorn model, but I'm not holding my breath.

In the meantime, there's the excellent one from Artel_W

That Eisenhorn looks way better than the 54mm version. Looks fantastic.

...

The 54mm model is based on the older Eisenhorn, a couple of centuries down the road.

This model is based on young Eisenhorn, still in his forties or so IIRC, before it all went to gak in a massive way.

Hmmm, you've got me thinking... Perhaps I'll have an use for that Deathwatch Artemis mini now, too!

Okay that doesn't look like he's modern day 40k for SURE unless Inquisitor game was already in what is current 40k!

That model is def on first 2 book era rather than post-3rd book look.

So yeah if it's 40k usable it's historical SC. That or necromunda model. Either way I'm sooooo tempted despite being currently 30k model only buyer. One of my favourite book series in BL period!

It looks like he has hair, so it's the younger xenos book version of him.

From what I can see of him, it seems the model is based on this artwork:

The head is slightly different, but everything else appears almost exactly the same. I guess this is also the most well-known picture of Eisenhorn that other portrayals (like the game) are also based on, so it seems fitting.

There is already a really nice third-party version available, and likely for a lot less - but it is nice they're paying some lip service to the guy.

The company that makes that produce miniatures that are very nice technically, but have completely the wrong proportions for 40K models if you care about that kind of thing. I do, so this I will need to grab. It better not be limited in number or location

I need to acquire plastic Skavenslaves, can you help?
