Lord Marshal Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) Judging by the big ol' sword and plasma pistol I'm guessing this is the replacement for the DG Chaos Lord that's been in limbo since they got their own codex?

Borbarad Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 A bit hard to make out how this all fits together: Looks like a massive sword and a plasma pistol as weapons and a very wide cape. Gives some credibility to the rumor that we will see a big chaos release of all 4 god legions this year Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384995-death-guard-character-leaked/#findComment-6084921 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMawr Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 This could be an interesting one though. Im missing one arm, I think its less an arm and more the big bulging mutation part, connected by wiry ( mechanical ? gore ? both ? ) elements to the stump of the right arm.

Ah yes, now I see. My imagination flew away with me ;) ( leaving the comment though.) Honestly I expect this to replace the generic Chaos lord datasheet. isnt the cloak a rumor engine btw ?

MechaMan Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) Very impressed by people’s ability to mentally assemble the model after seeing the sprue. I can’t really tell what I’m looking at will look like!

I think something like this is a multi-facetted error between automated systems and humans who might not even know warhammer. So if Employee A gets a sprue rollout of Object B ( wich is actually object C ) due to an automated systems error, but since employee A doesnt know the difference between object B and C and does his factory job on auto-pilot... who would you even fire legally if you wanted to fire anyone at all ?

Absolutely this. While a love of Warhammer is probably pretty beneficial for getting jobs in the 40k design studio for example, I would not be surprised to find that the staff in the warehouse are less knowledgeable and in some cases may not have any involvement with the hobby at all outside of working in the warehouse. And even those who do have some knowledge may not be able to immediately recognise what a model is from it's components on a sprue! Of course, there's also the potential of no human involvement at all, as it may be that whatever box the person received could have been packaged entirely by robot. If a rogue sprue got mixed in to a batch that were due to be packaged it could easily happen. Model looks very interesting. I can't quite picture how it will come out in my head, I wonder if he's been sculpted to be dragging that sword along the ground possibly.

grailkeeper Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) Looks like only one head option. I'd have thought there'd be a bare head as well. No Nursling either. Could there be a third small sprue with options?

dalmer Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 the sprue listing with the cage code shows the Warhammer logo and "Warhammer 2024" instead of Games Workshop. Is that normal? Apologies, been a while since I've looked at a new sprue so apologies if that's the common rebranding.

firestorm40k Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I wonder what type of character this is for Death Guard - it doesn't look like a new Noxious Blightbringer mini (surprising, as that mini is now only available on a sprue with two other miniatures), so I guess either a new character type, or a new Lord of some type? Either way, looking forward to seeing the actual miniature properly revealed!

lansalt Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I like it, but it seems too plain to be a Lord, not to mention the lack of a nurgling. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384995-death-guard-character-leaked/#findComment-6084947 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the champions have gotten nurglings when its a seperate sprue. This might be part of a larger kit or box. Unlikely though.
