Personally I'm waiting for the actual master figures for them before I really comment. At least its not just another set of Orcs or Goblins where there are already plenty of options in plastic.

If they have separate heads I'd be interested, I thought about the steppe warrior /Mongol heads on them.

I'd really like t see how these mix with reaper gnolls, use the bigger reaper ones as warlords or something like that.

Over on DakkaDakka, someone had brought up the Gnoll and Hyena connection and suggested using Reaper, or D&D, Gnolls as the female leader models, since Hyenas are matriarchal and have larger females.

Can't wait for these to come out. I for one like the look of the images that been previewed thus far.

Gnolls are so under represented otherwise with only cheesy-terrible Reaper sculpts being the easiest versions to pick up.

These are starting to grow on me and I do like the look of the last image. However, I don't know what it is but every time I look at it the phrase "i'm dwayne dibbley" comes to mind

This just in: Another Facebook preview


like the head, nicely bloodthirsty grin. The body lacks movement though, I think the cultists and soldiers were better in that regard.

When you said bloodthirsty grin this mini made me think of bloodthirsters from GW, the old school early 90s ones could fit right in with these. I like this one too, arm pose is looking a bit strange but that's just a matter of position I think.

I don't get this at all, the cultists/soldiers basically vary between "standing with both feet planted" and "stepping with both feet planted".  Which to me, is fine.  I guess I am just not seeing where those boxes had this "body movement" that is supposedly missing here.  ???
