Plastic models are hella expensive ... hand rolled by virgins etc. etc.

Surely those can't be hard to find among wargamers?  :?

You really don't want to see what comes out of the molds if you offer Slaanesh the wrong kind of virgins.

I have heard that Warlord has decided that the Pro Gloria plastics are too expensive and that they will only produce a cut down version fewer bodies, fewer heads etc. There were originally ten bodies and thirty heads. A damn shame.

I still think that If they went to Kickstarter instead of indiegogo and did some better marketing they would have made it.

No, those with a 45 degree bend in them and a few spikes bits.

Don't need them now because GW nerfed them to oblivion.

Werewoolf hasn't said, but they sell all their stuff on eBay and usually for a reasonable price. They also previewed a new imperial ogre that looks quite nice. You can follow them on Facebook as well.

I really like the look of the Werewoolf figures, and love the idea of getting a bunch of bodies to make use of all of the extra State Troop arms & heads that I've got. But at $4 each for just the bodies, they're a little too pricy for rank & file figures for me. I'd just as soon get figures from Artizan, Perry, and wait on the Pro-Gloria/Warlord landsknechts. It would be great if they did bulk/unit deals at better prices.

Speaking of expensive figures, I was looking through the Warmahordes page and found some more beautiful figures. At some point, I think I'd like to get this guy for my Undeadish project.

Yes, he would be perfect for that project. Also a very cool Frostgrave necromancer.

People die during the game. GRRM has a very good case that is his trademark.

In that case, AoS should be a damned jackpot for him; GW killed off 30 years worth of beloved characters and hasn't bothered to finish writing their new story while telling it.  That's two trademarks for the price of one.
The first school of thought is that the ragged-assed Stirlanders, not having two coppers to rub together, nicked it when an elven envoy was passing through the area and had hopped off it to take a pee behind a tree

If GW were to die before they finish AoS I don't think I'd be all that sad...

I would be sad if they "died" before they realized the error of their ways and went back to live up to their potential.

Warhammer Fantasy Battle really did (does) have lots of potential. So much of it unrealised, but always possible.

Yes. I'm just finding the AoS fluff to be mostly a story better left untold. To be fair I haven't read the latest bit, but the beginning wasn't enough to catch my interest.

Wouldn't GW sue GRRM instead?  They've been at the whole dying protagonists,  feuding nations, surprise backstabs, knights in shining armor, encroaching hordes of undeath thing way before him. (I think the novel "Runefang" is a good sum up really)

Anyway, that warmahordes figure is really nice. The horns could use a touch-up though.

The  werewolf miniatures are top notch. :::cheers:::

Side query,  is there any models out there with feathered wide-brimmed hats? (Like something out of the three musketeers)

I think I saw those models as well, I think they're way too small though. I think that model line had something to do with the man in the iron mask. :?
