Dear god burn it!!!
While I agree with the hands,
And the face isn’t my favorite,
The torso seems absolutely fine.
I don’t get where you are getting ‘under the arm pits’ from, doesn’t look that way to me.
And the stomach seems fine for a Slim muscled body builder type.

A cool looking model to be sure but do you all really want to see what a guard redo will cost ? While they will be pretty models, 60$ for 10 guard models will be awful no matter how cool they look. Especially taking in how many you'd need minimum for an alright list.
One of characters here or there is alright but if you don't think characters like that in a model line redo will cost like 40$ USD and the squads 60$ you haven't been paying attention.
Though I am sure some boxes will sell as people make up nice looking kill teams or try to pad current armies but a whole new core of them ? As Blaine would say it would be a whole world of hurt.

Some day I'll paint up my 6 Catachans (formerly 60), half in red and half in blue, and my Konami Contras will at last defeat the vile Red Falcon.
Did it go from 60 to 6 because you forgot the 30 lives code?
UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, START
That should get you 60 Catachans again.

If this model were in a sensible scale, I'd absolutely grab one for my Orlocks. As is, it goes into the 'it's nice, but I have no use for it' basket with most of GW's current releases :(

But yeah, maybe we are getting a new Catachan sprue before redone Cadians or greatcoat guard. I don't think I'd have predicted that.

If there's a plastic kit that definitely needs a makeover, Catachans are up there on that list. As much i would prefer a new regiment altogether, Guard haven't had any real love kit-wise in a while now, so I'd be good for them to get an actual update for a kit that's older than a lot of the newer players in the game.

Thanks gents. And yeah I'm not seeing the problem with that? Quite a nice sculpt IMO, and her chest doesn't seem unrealistic - looks kinda like what happens with a sports bra/messenger bag combo(and before anyone gets any ideas, I just happen to know a couple of bike messengers, I do not routinely go about ogling women in sportswear).
A more general update for Catachans wouldn't have been my first choice for a Guard regiment to be modernised(Vostroyans), but they need to do something for them. Hopefully if they do give us a new kit, it won't be hideously priced and this model is indicative of them finally putting a few female models in the box.

You see, considering even the CSM box had the audacity to only have 8 standard equipment per 10 models and a pricehike. (not even going into terminators or havocs.) Also if the recent eldar are anything to go by, oh boi. That would put the old Vraks renegade infantry to shame for a full army and mind you, that required you to buy an upgrade sprue for 12£ + a box a of cadians.

Screaming ‘make me a Necromunda Bounty Hunter’ to me...
Right, time to chat with my local manager, see if I can find any store re-openings or relocations in my area.
I tend to monitor their FB posts as is, but new stores don’t tend to have those, and not all stores are equally active on that platform.
Should probably get another box of padded envelopes, too. Reckon the first opportunity run is easily going to break a four figure spend.

The proportions of the previous model seem to be closer to real ones of a person. Some parts of the model are amazing, others are... well, very 90s. Those chocolate bar fingers, hideous sculpt of muscles and body thickness of a fridge, that peaks out of under the shirt, That`s not how people`s muscles are, let alone ripped ladie`s. Looks like painted bubblegum. The stance, weapons and face are pretty great.

Well looking at other releases it would be 35£ for 10 as a bare minimum.

I take you never saw IG sprues? Infantry are like 70% air, anything really would be massive improvement over that (not missing 80% of weapon options, for one).
And why take Eldar elite unit as a price point? Cultists of the Abyss, the closest equivalent GW did recently, is very reasonably priced. Funnily enough, it costs less per model than ancient IG kits, and that's without considering it has character sprue in it...

The plastic Lictor bit was a joke, as she's seemingly standing on the head of what looks like a potentially redesigned one.
A Catachans vs Tyranids campaign book/release with new Lictors, new Genestealers, new catachan squad and command squad would be the dopest gak ever.

Genstealers are a super old design too - whilst they've had some updated kits over the years I think the overall design is still the same pose and structure that they've had since the space-hulk days.
