Did anyone else notice the acknowledgement to Transformers in the new Lizardman army? The Oldblood (?) on Carnisaur(?). The Carnisaur is called Grimloq!

Cybershadow,
This doesn't surprise me. GW may protect its' own "intellectual property" with great zeal, but they have no problem with "borrowing" from others. GW's fantasy line, has always, been a little heavy on Tolkien's fantasy background.
Does GW have a copyright on the words "Space Marine?"
Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak.

I think so, someone else use something like "Space Marine" and had to change it, I forget the exact details. For a while there, G/W was using names and concepts from then, recent movies - Terminator, Predator, jet bikes, land speeders, Chaos Androids (now Necrons) look like T2s, Genestealers = Aliens, etc., etc. ... I'm sure this is all just coincidence ... It's all good !

OK, that looks pretty cool. It even has G1 characters in it! Does anyone have more info on this, like when it is due out?

Oh yeah, saw a video of this on an Playstation2 magazine DVD a month or so ago.. my transformer-loving friend Lewis loved it of course (poor little chap ), and even talked of selling his X-Box to get a Playstation just for it... madness... lol
