Any new minis coming from GW?

Post by Count Zappa »

Folks,

I've seen the GW catalog for the Specialist Games range, and I see that chainsaws for Undead and Dwarfs are coming, as is a bomber for the Dwarfs. But we saw these minis a year ago.

Is there something newer on the way besides those weapons, and those Human greens that were posted here a few months back?

The new humans won't be out until May next year. Not sure of anything else in the meantime beyond secret weapon figures.

After the humans I believe the Skaven are next to be redone.

Thanks.

Of course, after I started this thread, it hit me that I haven't seen anything from Games Day in the U.K.

That's this coming weekend.

Perhaps we'll get a look at new BB minis then.

I doubt it. Maybe more of the new humans.

But I hope I'm wrong :D

Weren't there some Dark Elves lurking at the back of the picture with the Dwarf secret weapons? I'm wondering if they may be due out after the humans instead of the Skaven.

Not really ... has comically origins:

Chairface Chippendale

Chairface Chippendale is a suave, debonair villain who appears frequently in both the comics and the cartoons. He has a chair for a head, but other than that seems rather normal. He seems very educated and he is very powerful; there were dozens of other villains at his birthday party. Chairface is also responsible for the CHA written on the moon throughout the comic and cartoon series; he was trying to carve his name onto the moon with a giant heat ray built by Professor Cromedome.

Appearances: The Tick vs. Chairface Chippendale, Alone Together, Coach Fussell's Lament, HEROES, Tick vs. Dot and Neil's Wedding, Tick vs. Science

Chairface Chippendale was voiced by Tony Jay

spoon!

i thought the new deathroller looked entirely too large to be of much use in play... though i suppose that it doesn't really get knocked down and get back up again does it? still, too big, they could have been more creative and made it a little more practical... but then, they also made the new ogres, so i guess they couldn't...
