Love him
I quite like RT model from Rogue Trader buy she is not oo Rogue tradish.. This guy should be in Rogue trader.

I wonder if they did not re purpose him and added the rushed gal 

She is cool model byt lack distinctiveness and character Rogue Trader have to had to qualify for the job

BTW I am getting some Dastardly vibes here

[blacksoilbill]

Yes, the perfect villain!

Haha, see I was having the opposite thought. The RT mini is pure Blanche from concept sketch onwards, and is therefore perfect for a Rogue Trader to me - JB has done more than anyone to craft an aesthetic for the non-military side of the Imperium. (Well, less-military side, as everyone is armed... you get what I mean, I hope). As far as I know that choice of mini was very deliberate, as JB did a lot of the concept work for that release. This guy looks a bit mundane to be a Rogue Trader to me.

The beauty of current 40k is that the Blanchitsu stuff exists alongside a whole bunch of other aesthetics, so there is room for two preferences as opposed as ours are 

I'll probably be buying him, but he'll need a bit of conversion work  Actually with that trenchcoat he's a great potential delaque boss conversion base model.

I will agree that Blanchitsu style is strong with her but its only good thing to say here.
Blansche own models for characters are over the top with character and never bland. With this she failed to provide..
She is not like his old miniatures line unfortunately


Difference between them to be honest is visible face and cartoonish painting.

But thats an opinion duel     
We can discuss with some truly epic paint jobs on her. Ive yet failed to see any wonders done to her.

Another hero for BF

This is increasingly feeling like what KT:RT should have been.

Looking fwd to a scenery reveal.

[Lost Egg]

This is nice and I like that there will be a plastic Eldar Ranger too...just need the rest of the squad.

[Belligerentparrot]

Man, that Kroot is fantastic!

[blacksoilbill]

I've been thinking for a while that I should convert up a Kroot mercenary. Job done!

[beefcake]

I've actually wanted to do a Kroot Kill team. They would be quite fun.

[zemjw]

I built up a Tau mercenary squad earlier this year from Tau legs and old empire plastic torsos. I had a spare kroot head and arms, so added a kroot to the squad (possibly the only kroot in the galaxy wandering around in trousers (he's kinda shy) )

This figure will definitely be joining the squad when it's available

[mcfonz]

And we have another!

[Lost Egg]

Thats cool...doesn't look Imperial...maybe its xenos.

[Storm Wolf]

And we have another!

Its a Martian Fighting Machine!!!! How apt for Halloween

M`mm now I am thinking?

[Brummie]

I'm really looking forward to this set.

Be interesting to see if it'll be a pre-cursor to a new faction just like the AOS version showed of the incoming Tzeentch forces.
