does what it says on the tin, sign or say something here to tell it to the metaphoric man who does everything that we need plastic grey knights

Plastic Grey Knights are unnecessary. Plastic Sisters would be far better.

its all good any plastic inquisition models would be nice

Plastic Grey Knights are coming soon enough. Complaining about it would be quite meaningless. Besides, you have the very real risk of the plastics being vastly inferior to the metals, given the very high bar set by the current range.

i suppose but the method used by GW have come a lot over the years, just look at all the various space hulks and how theve changed

Still, have you seen our boys? They're fething beautiful. GW's going to have a very hard time topping them. Especially when you consider how bad the new Spacewolves look.

I hope the new fething grey knights are true scale. I dont give a gak if they are made out of uranium i get cancer for playing them, id buy that army in a heartbeat.

ill give you that, grey knight do look.... anyone with a thesaurs tell me a word for very very very good

Yes. Of all the models I can live with metal Grey Knights, although it would be nice if they did a new range compatible with the old.

Plastic would be nice,
And suddenly they would be the cheapest army.

My only issue would be if they still cost as much as the metal ones (or that they didn't give you special weapons or something).

But I'm with fafnir,
they are going to have a tough time making them better.

you realy shouldnt make comments like that about cancer

Aparently I lost it, but I HAD a website that showed how to make very nice GK terminators out of the modern plastic terminator box set. It was very easy and the end result was ALMOST as good as the medal. Ill have to look further Im sure its around here somewhere.



Also to add to this, the only way you are getting plastic, is if they decide "hey.... lets redo the Inquisition/demon hunters dexs"

It never going to happen though there are no way near enough grey knights players to justify making plastic ones

But They're SOO strong!! Dont give DH players ANOTHER reason to field them!!!

New Codex, plastic GK=perfect beginners army.

Plastic Titans would be better

Dark Eldar need a new Codex just because i pity them. and what the is the talos supposed to be, is it a tank, skimmer, MC, walker


WHY ARE NIDS GETTING A NEW CODEX: SHAME ON GW FOR DOING THAT

*Insert obligatory Jes Goodwin "Marine models ARE true scale, it's just the other sculptors that can't get the sizes right" remark*

What makes you think that GW pays attention to the desires of it's player base to any real extent, let alone pay attention to "petitions"?

So sigged.

I am using proper 25mm English pth helmeted redcoats for my IG Praetorians - solves many issues. Suddenly, most vehicles become True scale (to guard), SM are true scale to the guard. SM vehicles are cool and if they were any larger, they would be the SM volvos (old joke - volvos were seen not as cars, but as mobile apartment blocks).

I've got my fingers crossed!

If they had plastic models more people would play them. A new codex would also help them.

Quit your whining.

O,WHY,O,WHY are Nids getting a new Dex

Id say yes Nids need one. ( and what do ya know they got it lol) But there are other armies that need that redo MUCH more then the nids

Plastic Grey Knights would not get many more players, if any. A new Codex, however, definitely will. Grey Knights are not that expensive to collect --- all things relative --- and it is more their limited choices, out-dated rules and stupidly under-powered/over-costed units that keep people away from them.

Exactly.

There are hints of new GK semi-soon. Phil Kelly supposedly started the book after SW was finished (whether it is just GK or not was not confirmed), plastic PAGK and new wargear options, like jump packs were "confirmed".

My real issue with the metal GK are too few poses and most of the PA ones have a "silly" pose.

The thing I found annoying about the GK Power Armour poses was the difficulty fitting them into a transport, much harder than other marines (especially the ones with the power weapon pointing forward)

You physically put them in your transports?

It was confirmed that it would be Daemonhunters, with the focus on Grey Knights rather than Inquisition. HBMC has been jumping up and down about this for the past six months.

The DH codex is complete gak, stop whining.
