Holy Peacocks o.o

Those look great, other than the fact I hate slaanesh these look pretty good!

The Slaaneshi models remind me more of Lelith in the Diablo 4 trailer, when she was forming from the skin/blood web thing.

For the demons sure, but the mortals look like desert nomads, and the archer and galive girl in the underworlds warband make pretty much perfect gerudo to my eye.

**Tim the Biovore**

Love the concept, and the way they look from the front, but the connection between the body and the "wings" looks super janky

**Iracundus**

Wonder if it is possible to mix and match the wings.

They’re the same pieces. The bit that joins Dexcessa’s wings into one complete mantle is replaced on Synessa by the two top ribs, which may also be a single piece.

Surely not - they've testified in court that everything GW comes up with is 100% original, with no inspiration from external sources at all...

**Tiberius501**

Wow Slaanesh is getting even more love! Feel free to shoot the other Dark Gods something cool too!

Anyway, absolutely stunning. Moar!

**Daedalus81**

Don't forget me! I'm down for like a billion of these.

That's a terrible Slaanesh model

**SamusDrake**

That Snagga looks great! Might have a few as replacement Orks for Space Crusade.

The Slaanesh models look almost as nice as the Keeper of Secrets, but just as big. In that case probably just as expensive which is sadly another pass. Shame they don't have something as good looking in a much smaller size...

The new slaanesh model is awesome, but my question for who knows better- is the banner picture actually out first look at Kragnos himself?

Oh good catch! Looks interesting and suitably monstrous .. I wonder if he'll have little friends- beasts of destruction maybe?
BR Kragnos looks like it will be a stunner of a release model wise with Kroak, the Twins, Witch hunters and presumably Kragnos himself.

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Face certainly has better shading than the Squig rider.

Looks proper chonk as well.

**Tiberius501**

Hell yeah, he looks boss af! Can’t wait to see more of this range, been really keen for an Ork update.

The other gods can wait! I've been waiting a good long time for Slaanesh's time in the sun, and I'm hoping it's as long in duration as Nurgles has been. (Though I certainly won't begrudge Tzeenth some time, too.)

**Arbitrator**

A (relatively short) lifetime of hunting huge, dangerous beasts has made these Orks particularly large and strong in comparison with regular Boyz. While they’re not quite as durable as a Nob, they can certainly swing their choppas just as hard, which makes them especially prone to lording it over the Boyz they charge alongside.

Primaris Orks lmao.

That’s pretty much my thought too. Seems like they’re updating Orks indirectly through these bros, like Primaris and tacticals.

**Marshal Loss**

Oh my god, I love them. I really hope they can be used in 40k, even if that is unlikely, and please for the love of all that is unholy just give me Emperor's Children done this well already.

Primaris in sales concept, but not in form. They certainly want people buying ork infantry again.

So they'll be S5, which means the Ard Boyz will probably become something else. Throw some AP on their choppa as well.

Isn't that completely contrary to the lore they've built up for orks? Orks get bigger and bigger across their lifetimes, so wouldn't relatively short-lived ones be smaller, not bigger?

If they get a lot of fighting they get bigger - if they don't they stay runty. Hunting big beasts makes big orks

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Not sure that’s what they’re saying, rather it doesn’t take much fightin’ big monsters to get more hench.

**Sasori**

The Slaanesh twins look so cool.

I really hope they get 40k Rules, as they are Daemons, they should.

Orks grow bigger by fighting not by time.

**Danny76**

I also didn’t read it as These Orks live shorter lives, more that’s something about Orks in general.

But either way, more looking like this is really cool.
Though there’s no way I’m replacing all mine. For starters aside from 8or so models, my Orks are done, and that’s good stats!
But secondly no room for even more for the Orks.

**BertBert**

Love the snagga, these might finally be our updated sluggas.

**Mammoth miniatures**

The new ork range makes we wonder of we might see plastic squiggoths some time soon?

Only thing in my mind. Squiggoths have been around forever, about damn time we get plastic kit we deserve!

**ceorron**

Spoiler:

By the description, i'm seeing them as a replacement for skarboyz.
I'm hoping elite choice.

**Dysartes**

Can someone point that Orruk back to AoS, please?

The lack of squiggoth in the art trailer makes me doubt we'll get one (with this first release.)

But they've got to release one soon, right? Even non-ork/40k players would probably want to snag one
