@Kommando_J
 
Competition is healthy.  We all must enjoy it to some degree or we wouldn't be playing toy soldiers (Though I confess to enjoying painting them more than playing with them :D ).  It's good for game companies too.  There are more games and companies producing them than there were a decade ago.  The influx of new ideas (or well recycled ones) that come from new voices also encourage the major players to reconsider what they are producing as well as how they are relating to their consumers.  The only downside is that it's even more difficult for me to stay focused on a single project with so many possibilities out there.  I even want to give ACA Star Fleet a go in the near future.

The Repulsor is so heavily armed and armoured that is doesn’t skim over the landscape but instead crushes the ground below it. The tank grinds forward with a deep bass thrum, reducing rock to gravel and fallen bodies to smears of gore and powdered bone.

40k fluff or thrash metal lyrics?
Also wow at the prices of the preorders but entirely expected.

I am tempted by that chaplain, despite the price.

Also, check out this version of the new dread. The pose sells the model so much better than the one in the online shop.

Yeah chaplain is nice, I like the stormcast vibe, great greaves.
Nice dread pic too, I'd like to see more dynamism in the close combat arm though. I think the smurf one is deliberately posed like the old one.

Indeed!
 :o :o

I was seriously tempted by the Librarian, and that Chaplain is great too, but that price for a single plastic model is a bit strong for my liking. Lovely figures, though.

I could just convert my own from bits that I have already.
That makes more sense to me.
 :D

That's pretty badass.

I'm surprised by the price of the Repulsor to be honest, I was expecting at least £60 and possibly £70 .£50 is alot but when you consider that a land raider is only £5 less it isn't too bad.
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

I remember getting the landraider for my birthday back when it was £30 ,going into school and being able to use the box cover as a certificate of badassery to all my friends.

Same, although for me it was my mad notes Night goblin boxed set(remember that?) although everything truly changed the day my bud Nick brought in something for me to borrow...the Mordheim rulebook.

I have been told by the guys on the warhammer facebook page that the repulsor does have interior detail. IT has a detailed floor, seating and control panels with an internal bulkhead leading to the engine and cockpit.
