Start a thread on looking at 3d printing

I do really like the new Dire Wolves. Leagues better than what they're replacing and some cool poses amongst the improved scuplts.

Not sure why they've painted what surely should be a crow pecking at the dead flesh as a blackbird though, they're not exactly known for their carrion tendencies.

It could be an Alpine Chough

It seems that there was a brief glimpse of the new gobbos in the Animation preview.

If someone could tell me how to upload a pic from mobile I could share....

That's serious twitcher territory! Also not much of a carrion bird from what I've just googled.

The new lanky greenskins?

Oh. A skinny orc.

I was wondering what those were in the trailer. Definitely lanky. Could be one of the new stormcast too.

Oh! I think I know from where that scene is from!

Its the upcoming cinematic trailer for AoS 3rd edition!

Makes sense to me

My thoughts exactly. If you pause enough, you can see the stormcast has the new bearded Sigmar icon (same as on their shields) on his cloak clasp, as well as on his magic wand. I'm guessing he'll be a new character in the boxset

Sweeeeeet.

It makes sense, they showed the Indomitus animation too.

Meh. I was being hyped for a potential destruction faction of industrial theme. Not more caveman greenskins

Well that was never on the cards. Being non-industrial is literally the one thing distinguishing Destruction from Order.

Who would have thought AOS Fimiar have two eyes?
It fits the theme.
Sigmar's comet has twin tails.
90% of animals in the mortal realms have two tails.

Now cyclops have two eyes. Genius

It means this is very much a viable approach for GW. Some something they can do and are now encouraged to keep doing.
Which... bad for the consumer, great for their bottom line and investors.

Brace for shenanigans with AoS 3.0

Really hope those are hobgoblins and not just orc or goblins in different gear. Really though i'm getting tired of greenskins, I think we have enough varieties of them as it is. Re envisioned Fimir would have been so much more interesting, now i'm back to the mindset that I won't be starting an AoS army...since the vamps were so underwhelming.

Fimir would have been an instant yes from me.

I've been mentally playing with the idea of a Savage Orruk army but....eh. Destruction really needs to be more than just...Greenskins with the odd flavour of Ogre or Troll.

I want to cross fingers for Fimir as they would have been fairly unique but...nevermind, guess it's yet more greenskins for Destruction while one of the 2 Greenskin factions struggles to have any semblance or structure beyond being a random handful of units shoved in a book.

I'm probably one of the strongest proponenents of the Fimir coming back, and good gods they would have looked stellar fighting the new stormcasts... but I had my doubts even though I had wanted to hold out hope for them as well.

I'm thinking the most we could do is vote en-masse if there another community survey for Fimir as a write-in want, or otherwise actually try to see if there's enough people to make sending individual emails to GW worthwhile. GW might well notice the Fimir if they see an indication that there is money to be made AND they already own the highly unique IP for the idea that they actually cooked up by themselves.

Or it just means they didn't make many sets.

GW have struggled to keep stuff in stock. It's not hard to imagine they didn't make many because they weren't expecting to sell many.

I would have like Fimir too, and I also feel adding an army that was not another greenskin variety to Destruction would be better (doesn't have to be a new race either). But while I would have liked those things MORE I am still excited & happy to see Destruction getting content.

Anyone else having issues with the skeleton warriors? I've had two sets of legs break during assembly.

I don't want to judge until I see the new models, but more orcs doesn't feel like "Destruction getting content" to me. 3rd ed isn't over and like with Death GW has years to add extra armies if they make Destruction the focus of the edition, but with what we have now it feels like a really weak start.

Easily broken legs? I thought they would be less fragile than other skellies. If it is more than one case I will not be buying this kit.

Bear in mind it could potentially just be however many spare plastics they had.
Assuming they made XYZ amount ready for Cursed City. But any problems from production that caused CC to disappear may have meant there were spare. (If the delivery of paper/card side of it only came XY and no Z for instance).

On the upside, they'll be shenanigans I can sit back and chuckle at.

On the downside - poor consumers...

The cursed city or the new boxed core set? If its the new kits its a case of poor design. Miniatures should be designed to fit the purpose and not snap easy due to incompetent evaluation of the material limitations. Doest matter how cool something looks if they snap.
If its the cursed city well it was one offs, rare things never to be seen again I guess.
