I really like both! It's a nice and unexpected to see the Eldar Corsairs look very much like the original flying winged Eldar Pirates from the Rogue Trader Eldar art.

Very cool. The Wraithseer has got some Predator hat tipping going on there with the shoulder mount, and the power blade underneath its arm is nice. Not sure on the wings but the jump packs, weapons and helmets look good. |

I took a screencap from my Rogue Trader pdf incase others don't have it, this is what they're based on:  Eldar jump-packers are a gap in the range I guess. I suspect they'll be allies to Craftworld Eldar, but a pure Corsair list could be interesting. |

The current 40k Wraithlord has the same shoulder mount, though it's nice to see a D-cannon armed Wraithlord. Pirates are... odd... but then I wasn't around in RT. They look both faithful to the art and not bad overall, just unxepected. |

Fun fact: Aabout 90% of bank robbers get away with it hte first time. After that your chances drop off precipitously. The moral: Get enough the first time. |

wraithlord looks awesome, though I'm not so sure about the weird wing things on its back. Pirates look a bit goofy, almost like mutant fruitflies (and I have enough of those buzzing around as it is). |
