The berets are a great nod to the old Perry sculpts. $7 per plastic figure is ridiculous though.

Infantry are awesome looking I feel. That truck/tank/aps thing is an abomination.

Typical GW prices of course.

And here I was hoping that the Knight Titan was a sign that GW had finally gotten its act together in the sculpting department. that IG... thing... is horrible.

I was going to say it's horrible. I like your word better.

Oh cool Orks got a new Battlewagon! <squints> Waaaaait a second...

Ugh. That...thing is not a "new Malcador-sized tank." So...someone in GW's design department decided to turn a half-track into a "whole-track"?

Agreed with Dave about the Stormtroopers-err... Scions. Great nod to the old Perry sculpts. Solid carapace armor, now with a "field plate" feel to it. I wonder what'll happen to the existing Kasrkin models though.

Loving the minis. That thing their riding in looks a lot slower than the Valkyrie option and not as sexy.

The troops are great, but i keep wondering about the non armoured heads in a combat situation.

Maybe I am just trying to find a fault in a made up universe.

Agree 100% with comments above.

That Taurox looks awful with tracks. Might be better with wheels? If so then might make a perfect Arbites vehicle for INQ28. Definitely would look better as policing/support vehicle rather than one designed to fight in front lines.

Scions look nice. But UK£21 for 5 normal human sized figures? OMG!! That makes the WFB Witch Elves look good value for money.

And UK£30 for a 72 page supplemental mini-dex.....

:(

Yup... still horrible. This doesn't even look like it belongs in the 40k universe.

Put 10 wheels on that thing and it'd be a nice arbites vehicle

It looks like its carrying the payroll !!( in the old days of cash). Armaguard is the company that did it in Oz. So there is the link.
