Týr Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Okay i'm convinced. Thunder Wolves are cool (but still a "bit" silly) and I need some for my army. It's just a shame that the riders seem very ordinary. I had hoped they would be awesome heroes of legend, with unique armour and weapons.

Wardiel Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 By the red hair of Russ, gw didn't disappoint (for once...) I'm in agreement with the few other 'cron players, think the tin men are going back into stasis while my loganwing is expanding beyond tda next month. Money may be tight because of it, but I'll be content with my toy soldiers. Gf will just have to live with it. Rejoice brothers, reinforcements are en route.

MaveriK Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I really don't like the idea though, that a Space Marine weighing more than just a few hundered pounds is going to ride a wolf bare-back..... The only way it makes sense to me is if everything other than, or even including it's brain is a metal construct made by the Iron Priests. I do suppose it's possible though. For example a pony can support 200lbs., you guys see the new Sherlock Holmes movie :) ? it's no different from a small ant carrying twice it's size and weight or more.. or a woman giving birth.

Brother Ironheart Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 The new models look great, now i wanna see more, like ajrac rockfist, and the wolf lord. Anyone else think its a fateful choice that tyranids, and space wolves get new releases at the same time? can anyone say epic battles against giant monsters? mostly because the monsters are the tervigon/tyrannofex, and the hive tyrant/swarmlord kits Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247568-march-sw-releases/page/3/#findComment-2997831 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Fang Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 ALES ALL ROUND ! I demand we get another ale that we'll need some thunder wolves to shift it!

Karack Blackstone Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 This is bad... For my wallet! :D :D :) Can those TWC be any better, at this point? They look great; I just wish I could use them, as I run Logan, and can't really see how having TWC and a TWLord would work into the, "public face" Great Company of Wolves. Unless I try to squeeze them in as an extra, that comes out when not in full view of the Imperium's forces...

Just gotta squint a bunch. yup he's standing in front of the Tyrant/Swarmlord though you can't see his hammer which is a shame - and tbh I think the hammer's much too small as he's meant to be able to knock a marine off their feet.

archangel23 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Don't see them on GW site yet. Are we sure they are coming out next month?

He already has some Trygons, and a Hive Tyrant with wings that he converted. I'm fairly sure I'll see some of these things in his list now. I also am looking forward to an epic charge by Thundercav into giant bugs worth of song!

Cowmonaut Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Sigh. And I had just received 20 fancy cavalry bases and bought two boxes of Goblin Wolf Riders. Was in the middle of building them. At least with the Thunderwolves I can easily separate the torsos from the mounts I had used. Probably can salvage their bases too. But still. On the plus side, fancy Thunder Hammer and two-headed axe and very action posed mounts is nice. Guess I'll be saving up to rebuy things come March.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I have been contemplating getting out of playing Magic the Gathering, and after seeing this new wave AND pricing up my higher valued cards, I am proud to say that I will be indeed buying all of these new goodies!! ...plus my wife likes the idea of selling one hobby off and investing it in another one. It makes me spend less time and money on them, well now the one... Plus I didn't realize I was in possession of so many dollars worth of cardboard!! My Wolf Wing has been waiting for this day to arrive for two years now, so it's almost unbearable to wait another couple of weeks!!

The runic armor is really great looking, but with the 'fine' cast Njal out there you can do better. Or you could just bash up your own like I did.

eyeslikethunder Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Oh man, I was hoping the Thunderwolves would be plastic and 3 to a box but I had been preparing myself for something not as good, like a single model in Finecast blister for $40. However, GW has hit my hopes! Hurray! I'll have to take a look at the Lord model up close to see if he's worth it, or if it's better to just convert a Lord out of the plastic Thunderwolves. Yeah not sure the Lord is worth it from the picture I will have to see one in the store to decide whether to convert my own or not. The cyberwolf looks ok in the picture Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247568-march-sw-releases/page/3/#findComment-2997979 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfebane Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I hope this new wolf standard has a raised motif. The thought of being forced to freehand every banner is discouraging.. and if/when freehanding is desired, it'd be easy to file it down.

Perpetual Dawn Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 At first view these do indeed look like the models everyone has been patiently waiting for.
