I can't believe they are still trying to sell those misshapen horrors (and not in a good way)

Gutted!

I actually thought they were going to bring out some new undead miniatures. Those zombies must be the best part of 20 years old now. Very very disappointed.  :-[

I'd like to see the Bull Gorg fluff come back (unless it already has?) and a mini to go with him. He was always a favourite bit of Necromunda fluff for me.

That Necromunda stuff looks great but the zombies get more pitiful every time I see them.  The corpse cart is such a nice looking model and surrounding it with those is liking pooping in your tuba.

Nice model, nice painting, but too strong a fantasy vibe for my taste these days.

The squat looks pretty good, but I’m very much excited about the plans for Necromunda. Sounds like it will be a major production line in the future.

What bugs me about that squat is the 'action figure' pose, with a big lump (apparently weightless) something in each hand like it's completely not awkward and the most natural thing in the world. Why? Yes, the proportions of GW dwarves gives them a big bulbous belly and it creates sculpting challenges in how a model can hold an item across their body, but surely the sculptors are good enough to rise to said challenges.

He's (or maybe she's ... 'It's the beard') stood in a relatively passive stance. Why the need to hold a boltgun in one hand and an oversized hammer in the other at the same time? Why not have the subject holding a single weapon (or tool) in a realistic way? Or (shock horror) not holding anything at all? Thumbs hooked into belt with weapons slung would have looked great.
'Sir John ejaculated explosively, sitting up in his chair.' ... 'The Black Gang'.

Re: Scurv: Yeah, GW have realised that middle aged man-children (I proudly include myself in this group) are just as much if not more likely to spunk cash on the hobby as kids are, and are now fully catering to that market!

Re: the new pics: That gribbly looking bounty hunter is cool, but nothing that couldn't be kitbashed already. Like the Orlock and Escher a lot.

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

Love the retro-speeder.  Unfortunately it souns like it'll be a Warhammer World exclusive and thus is out of the question for US buyers.

I like this guy. Is he wearing a Tau drone for a hat?
