So the other rumor is big, big plastic models for fantasy.

What would you buy?

I was surprised when they did those buildings a few years back, they're nice but not very game friendly. A generic plastic castle to replace the eons-old mighty fortress would have been a better investment. They could do 3 sets, a tower, a wall and a gate and throw in banners and icons for some of the major armies. Plastic generic siege gear (ballista, ladders, oil, catapult) could finish the boxes. Basically Planet Strike for Fantasy.

A plastic ship would also be a great product. Make it fairly generic again with bitz to customize for some major armies. Make the center modular so you can lengthen it with more kits. A general sailing ship hull would work for most armies except Dwarves and maybe Dark Elfs.

What else would sell?

Very large dragons? >.>

If they were like the apocalypse models, I wouldn't see the point unless you regularly played those kinds of games. If Apocalypse is any indication, they don't get play "that" often (to warrant the most expensive model in your army), and sometimes games of that size can be a hassle.

Then again, some people might pounce on the new and zany super-powerful units and sweep them up. I might be tempted to at some point, but it would be very low priority.

Personally I found it kind of odd how they only have 2 big things in the BRB. Is it a teaser for things to come?

The FW Chaos Mammoth at an affordable price would be nice.

BIG Carnosaur-like creature for the Lizardmen.

Ork Squiggoth, of course.

Big skeletal monster for Tomb Kings and Vampire Counts.

Ghorgons for Beastmen.

Terrain would be pretty cool too.

Dwarven ancestor cannon.

More castles. Along with all the other races, they need to bring in more generic building sets, In the same line as the 40K ruins and buildings.

Might be a good time to reinvent the "Siege Rules" with more and more siege equipment.

Castles and owns in the same scheme as the other races, as well as thier siege equipment, as well.
