LOOK AT THIS!!!!

r/Warhammer - Edit: help me identify this mini, please!

r/Warhammer - Edit: help me identify this mini, please!

Saw in this thread over on reddit,

 

Looks like two face options, one with a veil and one without, a little bit of a shame the head isn't the usual socket thing but I can live with it. I was really expecting a plastic Urien Rakarth to be the next character for Drukhari but this is great, both would be really nice of course. It's always possible the Drukhari release will just be this model and the codex but having seen this has made me more hopeful and excited even thought we are still some ways off given the Roadmap.

That was very interesting.

That would fall in line with being originally arks of omen release or an earlier (But abandoned) 1 model 10th edition codex release.

Or a limited edition initially.

I really hope its not the latter still

Hilarious to me that this is an undiscussed rumor by Valrak, and he is on vacation so he can't cover it

Another interesting thing, though i might be wrong in this, I havent bought any recent characters :

 

As a solo character release wouldnt this one usually be 2 smaller sprues so it fits in a small box ? And would the bigger sprue possibly indicates this one will go in a bigger box ( maybe with a retinue )

This had me chuckling as well, as he kind of predicted something like this would happen again

The GW internal leakers knew what they were doing.

Believe me I'm down for more Dark Eldar but I think we're just getting bigger frames for some characters. I had a look around and both Baharroth and Lhykhis, the new warp spiders character, come of sprues that look similar in size to this one. 

Seeing that he apparently bought this as a car boot sale is an absurd an extremely lucky find! It's quite odd how so many unreleased miniatures seem to just show up out of nowhere with no real explanation....This one especially, with the date of 2023 on it. Miniatures are designed years in advance but that implies it was probably *meant* to release a while ago, so maybe it has nothing to do with the upcoming stuff.

Cant believe i never checked those sprues, while the very craftworld focused side is my least favorite eldar flavor i always like to analyse for potential conversions XD.. so much going on in 40k since then though ;) 

 

Personally i still think a big Drukhari release is very possible.. Sisters of battle (8th) and Astra Militarum (9th) are in the same slot as them now.. nobody expected them to get so much either. 

Funny enough this leak makes it both more and less likely for me.

 

Really pondering if Lady Malys returning increases or decreases the chance of Vect... considering the two arent exactly friends, weird combo in a release :laugh:

In fairness releasing any dark eldar together is odd. They're all out to murder each other. They make skaven look positively agreeable by comparison. :)

You are at least right about  Dante !

Wow, the head assembly on this one is very particular; Part 1 for the neck and back of the head, part 11 or 14 for the start of the braid and some extra details, 12 or 15 for the face with or without veil, and 13 for the braid. It's gonna be a twirly one.

Nah, conspiracies are fun an all but these are different woods (well different wood veneers at least). Even then Ikea probably sell a thousand light-wood-coloured desks every day.

The High Heel is very Blanchitsu. Given the amount of base pieces, I'd say its a dramatic pose.

 

I'm sure we'll see it put together, but can anyone photoshop it together in advance? Some talented redditor was able to do that when the nurgle model got leaked.

Nasty thought- any chance the mini is across two sprues and he only got half? I don't think so but is it possible for 2023 era character models?

 

Do Eldar runes have a consistent meaning, like some of the other races runes? Anyone able to translate the base?

It confirms the names of the two missing legions.

Working on this bit

 

 

Not sure what the right way up is but either

 

(Upside down e) p c (possibly i) j l

 

or (Upside down l) j ( possibly Z) c  (Upside down p) l

 

 

I'm probably getting this a bit mixed up but I feel like there is a meaning there.

I don't think the date indicates anything specific, really. The new Asurmen miniature that released recently also has a copyright date of 2023.
