Bell of Lost Souls has pics up of the forthcoming Beastmen releases.

3 big, expensive kits, which may or may not appeal to some people as these things invariably do. The question is, will Pikey's Spevan Stance hold firm or will he fall off the wagon once again???? :lol: :lol: :lol:

I am sure Mike can hold his stance like a jedi master straddling a deep pit full of err...pikes :D

Besides, I am sure there will be some models by other mini companies that can be used instead :)

Probably see something like this article for the Wood Elves too I reckon, seeing as a new book will be a long time coming by all accounts.

These rate a pretty hearty M'eh from me. Not terrible but not fantastic either. I think the Maelstrom Banebeasts(?) Cygor is better. Mind you, they may look better in the flesh and the kits probably have a lotta cool stuff. However, seeing as though 2/3 of them suck rules-wise I am not in any hurry to get' em.
My Spevna stance is safe for now. :D

I thought the second one was pretty cool. Reminded me very, very much of the old Keeper of Secrets mini which was an uber wintastic mini.

Agreed, it does look like that and that was a great model.

That would be cool. :) I ain't on any wagon.

Quite liked the second one. The third one needs a closer look before I judge one way or t'other.

Look very closely at the top of the picture.
Finecast. :(
