For every two Troops choices – which are Armigers, by the way – a Lord of War may be taken.

So i have to buy three boxes of armigers to use my knights now?

well played geedubs, well played.

I'm sure it was (un)intentional....

How else are they gonna get people to buy the removed ones???

As someone who owns more Armigers(6:1) than Questoris I can feel someone's pain, cuz now I need to fill out the bigger guys.

I recon you'll be okay because the troops are the only compulsory and it's looking like you can have ten separate units of them if you want

EC Tartaros Praetor coming

Well that's just a great model.

Importantly…..did GW just acknowledge the Spehss Woof heads are bad?

It almost looks like he has a big beak helmet. Like an actual beak.

Which sort of works, since they were rocking aquilas...

Plus phoenixes.

That's a very nice looking model and the ornateness is totally appropriate. Strangely, my favorite terminators in HH were complete opposites... Red Butchers and the Phoenix Guard.

Show off...

Huh, nice, Combi-Volkite.

One of the best terminators I've ever seen. If its a GW plastic release then I'll be sure to add it to the monthly order.

My hunch says the model has too many injection molding witness marks to be a resin model. Seems kinda low detailed too. Plastic model most probably.

There is no way this one is plastic since the other EC praetor is resin

It's definitely not. None of these legion-specific praetors are plastic.

I must say, I'm really falling for that model and would love to use him as a Librarian Terminator for Space Crusade. A book or two here and there...

Oh, hey - combi-CHOOOM!!!

The amount of copium being huffed around these parts is utterly insane.

Please stop doing this to yourselves literally every single Praetor and Specialist Games reveal.

The model looks nice as a whole, but oddly enough I find a lot of details about it that I don't like individually. Weird.

I have no use for an Emperors Children model, no matter how pretty.

I wonder how hard it would be to convert to run as a Custodes Shield Captain?

My God you people never learn

HOW

HOW DO YOU COME TO THIS CONCLUSION

There has not been a single God-damned legion-specific plastic release so far! SO WHY, WHY WOULD THIS PRAETOR BE ONE?

You could have a hunch it's made of bloody hand-carved wood and it'd be as valid of a """"""hunch""""" (read; baseless hopium)

It’s definitely resin. Every time.

Absolutely gorgeous model. I prefer it to the power armour one (which was a very good model, but doesn’t quite match how good the early EC models are in my opinion).

Great looking mini.

I wonder what the WE Praetors will look like?

Very much looking forward to seeing. I think I’m torn between the EC and the WE for which legion I’d do.

Oh do be quiet.

If you had actually read my post I didn't come to a conclusion on it being a plastic or resin release, only my opinion of the model and why I'd dip my hand in my wallet. Besides, I don't know what GW's plans are for the Horus Heresy release schedule. If you're so well informed then good for you.

I am planning a force of loyalist Children. This praetor is perfect for what my vision for the army is.

You might want to trim out the sword a tiny bit, the guard has a hidden Slaanesh symbol.

No, you be quiet for once.

I am SICK AND TIRED of the fact that everytime GW reveals a specialist model and doesn't specifically spell RESIN out in enormous red bold letters at the top of the article, a bunch of people come running and screaming nabout the fact that it totally might be plastic this time, guys, despite the fact there's literally negative evidence for the fact. They add bloody nothing to the discussion and whatever point they have is destroyed by a few seconds of thinking.

It’s oddly un-detailed for a resin model. I’d expect finer/sharper edges and more undercuts.

Tell GW to stop sculpting these resin minis in CAD and you won't have that problem.

Can't agree there, I'd say it's pretty ornate as it is; any more detail and it would look too 'busy' ( a criticism I can level at a huge amount of GW sculpts but not this one).
