Sororita Katya Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 "A hobby store employee hit me up with this theory: the Sisters have been out of focus not out of the belief that female models don't sell, but because GeeDubs haven't been able to make quality plastic molds of Sisters until very recently (two prominent GW people, Jes Goodwin and Phil Kelly, have said as much anyway). While I admit this guy is a bit too merciful on GeeDubs, he has friends on the inside and claims to have witnessed firsthand several prototype sculpts of Sisters with veils on their faces. His personal theory is that GeeDubs has been saving up, and will give Sisters a fancy hardcover 7th ed codex in late 2015 or so once the plastic models are finished."

BlackTalos Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I'm expecting as much... Though again "haven't been able to make quality plastic moulds" = male cow manure But at this stage i think anyone with a small sense of thing would know that this is coming, 'GeeDubs' seems to be making sure all Codices are out for 7th, so it's only a matter of time, not uncertainty. 2015 Winter would mean pretty much the entire range has already been done (Spees Mahrines this WE, Tau rumoured next. Add another month for CSM and then sisters come at the trail end)Before the rumours pop up (oh wait...) i'm seeing a CSM+Sisters box to wrap up the year, as Deathstorm / Stormclaw but with CSM Codex on one side, Sororitas on the other Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308811-sisters-rumours/page/2/#findComment-4076513 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacinda Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Katya, don't let our overly skeptical replies discourage you. I am as big a skeptic as you will find. I have heard the "prototype" story in several forms for AT LEAST 5 years now. It comes around again every 6 to 8 months. I am jaded. I won't let myself get sucker in by these rumors. But secretly ... my heart still bounces around in my chest every time I hear it. One of these days it will be true. I don't believe it. I still love to hear it. So thank you.

Sith’ari Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Oooh! When the day finally comes, we should totally have a party thread where we all go through the codex/new stuff together.

WarriorFish Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Hmm, yes this sounds very similar to what we've heard. However that doesn't mean it's not true either. As ever keep the faith - trust in nothing but the God-Emperor and what you can hold in your hands. Until we can hold the codex, your bolter is a good substitute. Plus you can wile away the time slaying xenos and heretics! :P A party sounds great when we do get a new codex though, I'll bring the cake! :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308811-sisters-rumours/page/2/#findComment-4076914 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackTalos Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 As my father said when holding the box for Warcraft III: "I still think its a hoax." When the Plastic sisters come out, this will be me. I still won't believe it when i place the order on GW plc. I still won't believe it when assemble the models. I still won't believe it when i paint them. But secretly, I do also wish this is all true. I mean i ran a go**amn campaign to get their attention! lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308811-sisters-rumours/page/2/#findComment-4077231 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sedibear Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I really want it to be true so I can customize the Sister Superiors and their guns. :D I'd love to be able to field Power Axes without going through the pain of converting metal. I also want to do my own Living Saint in plastic. (I wish "generic" Living Saints become a thing.) That 4chan update is a story that made rounds, just with the date changing each time. So color me jaded. But I agree, it does make me happy whenever I see it because maybe this time it'll be true. Consider that we are the army that has the most faith both in-fluff and out when we are waiting for plastic models. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308811-sisters-rumours/page/2/#findComment-4077258 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are in no way making me doubt, and I am more than happy to tend the fires of faith and keep everyone in good spirits. Whenever I find something, whether it be repeated or not I shall post it here. For the night is dark and full of terrors (I'm hearing new tzeentch GD and daemons/warriors), but if said rumours are true then tzeentch will be the gatekeeper, and once those gates open....PLASTIC SISTERS SHALL COME FORTH TO BURN AND PURGE!

Sume Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I will still pick up a box of sisters vs chaos, or even plastic boxes and think this is a hoax. That is tell I actually open it up.

sitnam Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Tzeentch vs Sisters you say? Two factions I really like in one, thats just ideal. As for the original post rumors, if they were true, whats the best guesses on the supposed models? The walker model seems to be the Pentinent Engine, but what about the large base infantry? Some were mention Centurions, which isnt a terrible idea. With two vehicle combo kits, it'd be nice to see a Sisters battle tank. Not rocket artillery or an upgunned transport but a Holy Trinity bearing monster.

Sororita Katya Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 I always thought the Redeemer was a good name for a sisters assault tank and they stole it for a land raider varient :/ Maybe The Purger or The Conflagrator could be good names for an assault tank.

BlackTalos Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 * Sororitas combo unit vehicle "A" kit. * Sororitas combo unit vehicle "B" kit. For the vehicle, as i said in other threads, i read the above as: We are getting 1 Vehicle box, which contains "A" kit + "B" kit. So a re-boxed full Immolator kit with the 4 plastic parts to make the exorcist as "Kit B". Nothing specifically new there. Only because i doubt we're getting 2 different boxes with 2 options each making 4 Variants. We shall know in due time....

sedibear Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 It'd be nice if we can get an upgrade sprue for a Rhino kit as an option. Combo Rhino/Immo/Exo kit would be awesome as well. As for large base infantry, I don't know if anything fluffwise fits the bill. maybe penitent engines get moved to elites? :3 man, I could be painting a plastic sister and still think it was a hoax.

GogglesDown Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 It would be nice to see a repressor/exorcist kit replace the current exorcist kit, since fw seems to have stopped producing both of theirs.

*Furyou Miko Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Too dissimilar - the Repressor would need an entirely new vehicle to dual-kit with. You could dual-kit the Immolator and the Exorcist though, if you went for the MLRS style.

Naminé Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Hmm... it is possible that the Repressor is gone because GW is making a version of it though, the same thing happened for the Tau Piranha :p I think a Sisters-y Baal Predator (Flame version) would be easy for them to do and give us a fitting tank to go forward with, rather then the back-sitter that is the Exorcist.

*Furyou Miko Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Both are good. We can but hope. Perhaps a tank version of the Repressor. Heavy Flamers instead of firing slits, Malcador Defender style.
