Really nice reveals! Farsight is definitely the most impressive. I would love to see additional figures of the 8 to go with him.

Also, the new book specifically calls out Nazdreg. Will we finally get a model for him?

I guess if we'd get a Nazdreg model now they'd have revealed him by now as his picture would be in the Farsight book. Perhaps later, with the next Ork codex, that's supposed to come early in 10th.

Best case scenario would be a kit that could build either Nazdreg or a generic Warboss in Mega armor with the more classic weapon options.

That would be a fantastic scenario. Doesn't seem like any of today's crop of reveals build a generic version tho.

Given there’s four entry sessions at WHW today, im wondering if perhaps we might get further reveals.

I doubt it, but open to being wrong.

I don't think that they've got that much powder to shoot really, they still got to furnish Adepticon and Warhammer Fest with something, and that's in two and a half and seven weeks respectively. There's only so much they can show considering that they still want to do some regular reveals as well in the meantime.

Farsight has the Dark Angel Hexagrammaton on his arm so obviously is the Lion in there

I like al the model they showed, its a shame there are beasty boys in the ork box,
else i would buy it. I dont have commandos yet and the pirates are good to.

I liked all the new minis there. The Tau is the best of the lot, such good design and pose.
The Ork feels a bit short in comparison with the comandos because in my opinion the Kill team crew are much better sculpts and concepts, loads of character on those.
The Khorne one seems like just yet another Khorne thing, which at this point is a bit samey.

Would be nice, but all the hidden videos the technically gifted people have sniffed out for today are already accounted for.

They might still throw stuff like teaser images etc. our way, but i doubt we'll see much more than the videos.

Snikrot is another of the models where they took the old version and slightly refined it as opposed to a major change. I like it. He's a kommando, no need to be super flashy. I wonder how hard it would be to use one of the spare heads he comes with on the kommando nob though.

Could be my pain killers just kicked in but all these new models look really good to me!

Wondering about the new boxes like Khorne and Slaanesh, when these are released how much longer after that are the new models available separately? Is it normally a 6 month time frame?

The new khorne and slaanesh models aren't in the big boxes. Just the 40k models in the boarding patrols.

Oh ok, thank you. That's cool, can get them even quicker then

Awesome new suit for Farsight, only think i'm unsure about is the connection point for the thrusters seems a little lacking considering they're giant engines?

I converted my own Farsight, but the new one is far too good to pass up.

Is alright. They’re stuck on using Gue’la Glue.

If they fall off, they can just use the Bonding Knife to fix them.

But they "refined" out the two best parts of the old model: The "shhh" finger and the enormous anime elf ears.

Farsight still has his name on his shield like it's his school lunchbox. Lame.

If he bashes someone with it, would it leave his signature?

No, it would leave a mirror imprint, so Ɉʜϱiƨɿɒᖷ

The solution is of course to punch them so hard that the signet comes out right-side-up on the other side.

Bra'Vo has a good track record in upholding huge lumps of plastic

And down down down the Ra’b’bit Ho’le of dodgy humour we go!

Really unimpressed by the AoS stuff revealed.

Snikrot and Farsight on the other hand...oh yeah.

Looks like AoS will remain underwhelming until the Seraphon come out - it's mostly needed, but generally un-exciting updated books till then, with the odd hero or unit thrown in. Necessary, but not really getting people riled up.

Nah. The Overlords managed to be a genuinely unique character surprise.

This is just yet another fighty Slaanesh hero and yet another Khorne priest.

This would have been a great opportunity to instead release plastic versions of the older <Insert God Here> Lord on Daemonic Steed of <Insert God Here>

The Khorne stuff looks all pretty samey to people that are not deeply invested anyway, mixing that up a bit more would do wonders. Lord on 'thingy' would have been great, but alas, it's not to be. Maybe there's some more stuff in the books, who knows.

I like the new Farsight. IMO definitely the best version of him released first hand by GW.

Oh great, ANOTHER Slaanesh army book. These things seem to come out neatly as frequently as White Dwarf.
