I found this on BoLS as a cross-post from somewhere else, but they have some pix of the new Dark Eldar up... So I thought I'd share with you all here:

BoLS Dark Eldar Pics from Games Day.

Not sure how much I like the new Raider really, and I'm a bit undecided on the new Incubi, but the Warriors and Lelith Hesperax look very cool!

The Reavers could be good too, but it's hard to tell from the pic.

I'm not very keen on the Raider. The sail in particular irks me. However the rest looks pretty good and the jetbikes are really cool!

You think it is possible to get one of these with a wookie and a guy with a lightsaber hovering over a giant spikey anus?

Looks like the new bikes will be even better for making epic superheavies than the old ones. I can imagine some gorgeous vessels and barges made out of those parts.

Jetbikes +; Raider I'm 50/50 on...basic shape is good, sail is pants; Incubi are awful...they look like Chaos Warriors from Warhammer. Still, the upside is it takes away another argument against Dark Eldar Epic scale proxies!

Sounds like a fun Saturday night.

;D ;D ;D
I'd leave the sail out and use it for a conversion. If Hellions still exist, they could ride a windsurf board using this sail O0
OR add a much larger pair of sails to the Raider instead of that disproportionate thingy.
Or use two of it for a characterful Raider (uh oh..... chitty chitty raid bang, chitty chitty raid bang, chitty chitty raider we love you....)

Actually more exciting than the DE is that epic scale resin revenant titan FW are making...well the new jet pack aspect anyway, but im going to call it a revenant ;D

Acually this "sail" is just a banner.

I think the new Raider is vastly more difficult to make into a 6mm model than the old one. :(

We'll see. It'll will require some compromises, and will definitely need to be multi-part.

I think that if you start with the sprued parts and then build from there, it won't be so bad.

Also, without an official model, in this case "close enough" will be good enough.

Wow. I'm totally on board with the new style. To me, the entire line actually looks like Eldar fallen to Slaanesh, as it should have been from the first. A few of the pieces seem too bulky for Eldar, but they are relatively few and far between.

Yup, I really like most of it, especially the sail that everyone's deriding.
