sadly they won't ship till late January, unless I misread the fine print…

That's right, it seems someone at Forgeworld has a mean streak. I wish there was a bright side to having to wait a month to get it.

 

Patience is a virtue, and it gives you more time to finish up whatever projects y'all might have before jumping onto a new one! :P

 

Gorgeous model, and if I used Dreadnoughts, I'd absolutely buy this one. As is, I don't need it, so I'll just stare at the pretty-pretties...

Ah, now I've always had a soft spot for the lumbering walkers of the Space Marines. My first was the old Bjorn, then I got a FW Mk IV with the Siege upgrades and Wolfified it. Next up was the AoBR Dread, and finally I "aquired" a BA Furusio Dread that had been turned into a Chaos Dreadnought, and reconsecrated it for a Hero of the Russ. Number 5? At least... still debating trying to make the Ironclad look good too...
I'll be hoenst, I'm not impressed! its pretty boring (compared to rest of space wolf new range) and could be easilly converted from current plastic bits (and a bit of green stuff very simply. A Bit more effort I feel! C'mon forgeworld, why not make it as detailed/good as the latest chaos stuff?

Here's the thing though. It would have been very easy to go completely over the top on a SW Dreadnought, with pelts and skulls and icons and just look messy. If you look closely at the high res images on FW's website, you can see the runic script layed into the model, the little diamond symbols tucked away and the iconography which ties in beautifully with the standard GW sprues.

 

In my opinion, the only thing lacking is the DCCW, which is designed to go with any Dread so you know... Still, that's what we have a bits boxes and GS for...
