Some nice stuff in there. The Navy have a touch of steam-punk going there with all that brass. I dig 'em.

Krooooot! I've never played or fielded them in any capacity, but they make great conversion bits. I like the bow-gun contraption. I need one for the Digga-chicks.

Human Hashut worshipers? Okay, not bad models, but with all the love the Squats are getting, GW really should resurrect the Chaos Dwarves. They had some really fun figures back in the day, and there are some die-hard grognards out there who would weep tears of joy.

That Goliath bike is pure Waaaaaagh! Paint him green and paint it red!

Yeah, as a connoisseur of mostly nekkid Amazon warriors, these ones are pretty meh. Shame, they really could have gone to town on them. Lots of really evocative source material to steal from. The ancient Meso-Americans even played this ritual ball game hundreds and thousands of years ago.

And you can never have too many witch hunters. Got to say, I do like the old Mordheim figs more. These need more texture and detail.

You can tell the squats have very advanced tech compared to the Imperium, that thing could pass over small rocks without ripping out its suspension. :lol: :lol:
As moon buggies go, it's kind of cool. I like the little gunner's pod on the side. The design looks pretty different from the other factions in the game, I think it's the first thing I've seen for the new squats which has 'wow'ed me.

It's adorable!

Also the new Squat troop carrier was revealed recently.

WarCom just posted the first shot of the upcoming World Eater kit for 40K.

I like it. It's quite simple in terms of trim/details, which should make it easy to paint. I would have preferred it with Mk.VI or earlier legs, but I'll still pick up a kit to use the bitz for 30K. :lol:

I like him! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the options in the box.

Mostly excited for their Codex though, with Tallgeese and Job fighting the good^^^^angry fight with their own rules they deserve a shot in the arm and I'm looking forward to some tough fights.

(I just need to avoid listening to any novels with a significant Kharn presence to avoid picking them up myself)

Nice to see a lot more 30k plastics rolling out too, hopefully we get them on time or at least soon here in Japan. Relic Terminators are pretty good in 40k so why not field 30 of them :lol: I "need" one more Contemptor and kind of want a Leviathan out of sheer dread addiction too.

I like it a lot - I'm not sure if I'd say "understated," but it does an excellent job of fitting the post-Shadowspear CSM aesthetic while still obviously being a Khorne Berzerker and only a Khorne Berzerker.

They also teased a member of the fourth Nethermaze warband for Underworlds, Dadbod McFlamehammer:

I'm, er, going to wait to pass judgement until I see the rest of the warband. :lol:

Wow, love the McFlammer. I want 10 so I can use it in Necromunda, Warcry, chess sets...

I actually really like the dadbod. I'm fed up with every barbarian model being ripped like Dwayne Johnson. Like, If you were a barbarian warleader, you're damn right you'd be eatin' all the pies. 'snot like anybody's going to try stopping you...

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

Dadbod McFlamehammer. I don't care what the model's actual name is on the package. It can't be anything but Dadbod McFlamehammer.
