I'm sure more Jakhals is exactly what the World Eaters commmunity was hoping for...

I am amused that EC lose all cultist access, and WE gain a second cultist unit.

[Redcomet]

These are fantastic miniatures 

[MasterBlaster]

IMHO aesthetic is way off for both teams. Looks like reused stuff from the crow warcry team and the new humans in aos. Yikes 

[Nephaston]

Also, quickest turnaround that isn't inverse on a rumour engine?

[Burni]

Once again, their reveal strategy makes no sense to me…

 

That said, I like the new models. It’s one of those sets that adds depth to the universe.

[Madao]

I really don't like the cultists - they don't fit the universe IMO. Why do they have replaced legs with high-quality cybernetics (looking similar to Sicarian legs from AdMech)?

On the other hand, ministorium one looks nice (aside from Miraculist - not only she looks weird due to her 'dress', but also pulls Christianity strings, which I don't like in 40k aesthetics)

[Borbarad]

For a moment I thought this article was published by mistake  It’s EC preorder weekend after all

 

Models look very nice, but I didn’t expect (or would have asked for) an other Jakhals unit

Khorne forbid a Butcher Surgeon have a hobby in between shoving Nails into brains.

The legs are meant to imitate the Bloodletters'.

[Burni]

The statue is pretty good (the chest armour doesn’t look right though imho). Still I like it and we need more statues (should do a mto of the marine one).

 

Edit: Ah is that the statue from the SoB chapel? I’d forgotten about that…

 

Sorry to go on about the weird reveal timing but it’s like they realised it’s up for order tomorrow or something so had to quickly throw the article up!

Yes! Yes! More Imperial freaks and weirdos. Always happy to see more models like this and they'll be a must buy for me, hopefully they'll see be available for Imperial Agents at some point. Also I really like that they cribbed this guys look, always been a big fan of this model.

[Antarius]

I guess I'm not going to be able to live without the imperial cultists. The Khorne guys are nice, but not really something I feel a big need to own.

[Xirix]

Ooo, plastic Death Cult Assassin. Digging a lot of these, especially the Salvationist, the creepy mask and very stoic pose is really good.

40k is fundamentally soaked in, grounded in, and much grows from typical scifi adaptations of christian imagery, history and practice (especially high church forms of Christianity and imagery of saints, angels, hell, etc). Given the whole team is based on ecclesiastical and saintly imagery, seems to odd say only one does? It's so on the nose for them all :)

Not much interested in either Kill Team (although, ovjectively, they're nice models) but I think I need that statue.

And I want to see the desecrated conversion. Maybe I will need two....

Kill Team, not kill Tim. My apologies to Tim.

That’s pretty cool, I must admit  

 

Also something a religious Khorne zealot would probably do; nice world building 

[Deus_Ex_Machina]

The Adeptus Ministorum guys look like, if water and soap had been excommunicated. True hobo vibes. Miracoli äh Miraculist and mask guy are the best models. Cherub looks as if had just poked his wet finger into an outlet. Paint the bunch in a Blanchitsu style.

[Azaiel]

Well theres the cattle prod rumour engine aswell.

 

I like the Imperial Weirdos, great for the Inq 28 crowd

[Maschinenpriester]

Omg this is a great reveal. Love the imperial side of this. And also the re lelease of the statue if understand that correctly. Such a great piece.

[Bouargh]

An interresting release, even if I do not really see how the scenery part fits intro Volkus theme. The warbands are quite OK, but may deserve waiting for them being released separately.

Nice surprise that solves many old rumours too.

Correct autocorrect

[ZeroWolf]

Models look quite nice but not for me 

 

This looks like several rumour engines sorted all at once mind, including the cherub wing.

 

Edit: Realised what day it was  Completely forgot it was Warhammer World Open Day

Realised reason for reveal

Well, this is definitely surprising, wonder if it was supposed to be revealed yesterday but didn't for whatever reason (intern strikes again!).

No, it's just Warhammer World store anniversary event this weekend, hence the reveal. They've done similar in previous years.

Yeah was heading back in here to ammend my post when I realised what the date was and it all clicked into place!
