New daemon models, finally...?

[Slaanesh]

Well i was on the GW site and found these; I'm a bit sad

I personally preferred the tentacles and the multiple faces, this is more like multiple feces...ok maybe a bit better


40k prince, i actually like this one, at least the quality is good


Nothing wrong here


I actually like the heads but the poses, dark gods they are horrible
Well this concludes my review, what do you think?

[squalie]

Well, I'm sad that you're sad -- and I don't agree. I like the Horror figs, I just think they suffer from the 'Beastmen Mino paint scheme'. I think these just need some funky colours to set them off.

[Slaanesh]

Fair enough, i might be able to like them, i just hate to see how warhammer turns more and more cartoony with big eyes, hands and dumb facial expressions, they're like kid's show villains

[A.wagg]

No heralds... thats a bummer!

[Kiwichris]

They sent these to me in an e-mail. It was kind of ironic that the title of the message was "New Horrors fron the Realm of Chaos" and didn't show the new Horrors, just DP's and Seekers.

I agree with Squalie and will reserve judgment on the models until i've seen other peoples paint jobs on them.

[Slaanesh]

Well a better paint may help them, btw did anyone else notice how the dp is giving us the middle finger?

[Kiwichris]

Now that you mention it! I also thought the top right Horror in that picture looks a lot like Majin Buu!

EDIT: Oh yeah, btw I saw the sprues for the new plastic Bloodcrushers the other day. They look pretty much the same as the metal ones, just with the obvious plus of being plastic. The Juggernaut is in a different pose which makes a bit of variety as well!

I like the steeds of Slaanesh, but as always dislike the Daemonettes. I will probably try to fit the 6e model on that steed. The previous horrors were more alien than these cartoon like models. I really like the Changeling and the Daemon-prince, although I will not buy the Prince until it gets better rules...

I noticed the finger the moment I saw it at the GW site... Quite some guts with all this censoring business as of late.

[Slaanesh]

New ones:

Not bad, but he doesn't look too smart, nor sinister. But it's kinda good.


Nothing new, well at least not really, but i like them.
they are also releasing old familiars and old traitor models for 40k

[Kiwichris]

Both very nice imo

[Hardrainfalling]

i like the lord of change very nice i assume its not plastic though

I love the new models but am unsure about the horrors. Seems no matter what they come up with they always seem not ok to me. I think I prefer the metal ones we just had in 7ed although pathetic to glue.

I still have a problem with the crushers but not on the looks, now that we have an advantage to rank them, they are probably the worst unit to rank since they come out of there base like 1+ inches. They were always a pain to put in close combat because of that and now they'll be a pain to rank properly.

I love fateweaver. Older looking LoC style. I'm just not fond of the fish at the end of the pole. I hope they have a couple choices for that one like the LoC.

[Atrocity]

Kairos looks awesome, he'll no doubt be my 3d LoC

The juggers look awesome, I just want the riders though.. I have 6 metal juggers already but plastic riders would be prefered, suppose I'll have to scan ebay for them later.

I have 45 of the old horrors but still I'm thinking of selling them all in favour of the plastic ones, anyone interested, let me know

[squalie]

Yes, the Bloodcrushers are an absolute pain to rank up. I just stagger them and tell everyone the intent of the unit.

After someone just mentioned it, I hadn't noticed that Kairos was metal. What a shame as a plastic kit would have been epic for conversions.

[gjnoronh]

You've got to sell A LOT of a model before plastic gets cost effective given mold set up costs.
