Cheers for that - heard these were coming but this is the first pics - Vostonians or something?

Silly big hats and stuff, but still have a common IG look. OKish.

curious to find out more about the building

New Ig?!? Not sure, looks to me to be converitions of some sort. I can Id a couple of the base models in that picture. Sure that those aren\'t someones idea of what any new models look like?

definatelty the new guard IMHO. As they\'re standing on one of the new buildings, but you can see the donor models from the existing IG models.

I\'ve been looking for a release list for the new tau miniatures, but have been unable to find one with dates on it..
Skarekrow, would you happen to be able to post a link or something in the Tau thread? I\'m sure there are many others who would like to know aswell.

Wooo thanks for the post.. they look totally cool. Just what I need another Imperial guard regiment to collect.

As for the building..is it a GW plastic kit or Forgeworld?

I know in June theres a new Cityfight book coming out so I expect to see lots of cool stuff for that.

 

[bayrodney]

Apparently every army is getting a new \"metal\" model.
But i am looking forward to these new IG
Maybe i can do an army that does not include bolters, .....oh crap, wait, they still do

 

[Wag1809]

NO, NO, NO, not onther IG regiment. I love IG and if these ae indeed new models I\'ll be forced to buy them, crap.

 

[pez5767]

BUILDINGS!!!

yeah, yeah, yeah... cool new gaurd. have to wait for plastics before i can judge.

But i heard a rumor that those buildings are a new plastic kit from GW... i\'m holding off on an IMEX platformer order until i hear more... anyone know anything!?

 

[Godlikebuthumble]

If they go for the same quality/price ratio like the one of that sanctuary chapel...

FORGET IT!

I mean, the piece was kinda nice (ooooh, coloured plastic foil!), but just not worth 50 €... like, 60 bucks! (Sold like nuts, though... )

 

[skarekrow]

pez5767: the building will be released this summer its on the release list and will be released together with a cityfight combat mat (?????) and some other stuff.

 

[Tony Manero]

bah i don\'t like them :~(

 

[james sequeira]

there going very close to an urban war look now

 

[Orb]

I agree with you Tony!!!!!!

Wasted opportunity. Again

 

[green stuff]

I think they could be nice if only the paint job was different and the hats met their heads better.

 

[Brokenblade]

they\'re intersting, i can see others liking them but personally they don\'t do anything for me, and i don\'t really think they fit with the look of 40k for some reason.

 

[Trevor]

Awesome, I DON\"T like them, yay! :flip: :bouncy: :flip:

(If you are wondering why this is a good thing, I like guard and have yet to finish my Tallarn and want to do some Cadians and the forgeworld droptroops, so I can do without more guard).

I quite like the ones with the masks, might do one of those as a display peice.

 

[EPStudios]

those models are attrocious.... The only thing I like about them are the generic lasguns. The curved rifle butt is a cool idea. I\'d like to see some conversions done with weapon swaps using those guns.

 

[Mydrael]

So that\'s where the Valhallan Ice Warriors went ... could be worse I suppose ... on the bright side, another summer I can spend money on other mini\'s ...
