Pretty dire designs on these fatty birds, almost like a happy meal toy feel and look... those wings are just awful.
Of all new releases only one miniature there is a must have, the Lord relictor. Easy pass on the rest.

Bugger, i was hoping the Celestant would have had a right handed sword. Oh well, that's not difficult to source.

Its literally just the same arm sculped without the hammer. Of course the swappable arm part is actually only going until the elbow, the rest of the arm can't really be reposed without more parts since it supports the cloak and shoulder pelt. So they would have only been able to change the positioning of the forearm and there's not a lot of great poses you can do with just that. (Without being able to change the elbow direction) But still even just changing the hand to a pointing one would have been way better since it would actually make sense to extend the arm in that case. Or, you know, just let her hold the sword in that hand instead of having all the weapon options in the left hand.

It makes more sense if you put the model next to a few units with red banners.
Really, this constant warfare thing was never going to work in the long run. It was just a matter of time before Sigmarines unionize.

That miniature seems to have paid the heaviest price for being a 1-piece plastic cast with no undercuts in all of GW's history.

Article about the new warhammer hero's:
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/fbxyifn8/warhammer-heroes-series-5-stormcast-eternals-take-over/
Interestingly, apparently going on sale tomorrow. Wayland's pre-order doesn't have them releasing until 20th December.

Come on GW, is that really necessary?
Every display unit will have eight blind boxes, but unlike previous Warhammer Heroes series’, there is no guarantee you will get all seven miniatures if you buy a full unit of eight.

From memory, the original leak had at least one of the models as 1/32 rarity and a couple at 1/16 rarity, which makes the whole thing worthless to me. I am not buying multiple cases to chase a figure that only appears in 1 in 4 of them.
Wait a couple of years and the set will probably appear in a Warcry starter set anyway.

That single change moved this from Interesting right into Hard Pass.
They will get counter sales for the blind buy chance once or twice from some people maybe. The uninformed.

GW chasing the whales... I didn't mind the previous WH Heroes series (the extra model in each display made for a fine small gift for friends), but this is a hard pass for me. Especially in the light of the new KT Starter Set.

Whilst I'm never surprised by the things GW do like this, I still feel like I should act surprised when they announced something like this.
They at at least attempted to make the space marine/ DG sculpts a little more unique when they set people for the chase. These seem a little uninspired for the chance to end up with multiples of the same.

easy, Stormcast are less popular than Space Marines
so to increase sales up to a similar level to make the investment worth doing, or to avoid the impression that those are less popular, make those people who want them buy much more
and as this is GW, it will work and be a major success

Looking forward to these lingering on shelves for the next 12-18 months.
Hopefully, this will signal that SCE aren't and will never be Space Marines and be the point where they realize the sunk costs aren't worth it.
The sculpts are nice, but they couldn't sell out Dominion boxes that were full of nice sculpts at 50% discounts.
