Die Jungs haben aber momentan ein Tempo drauf:

Death Korps of Krieg Commissar Models

First up and one sure to please Death Korps players who`ve been after them for a while are Death Korps of Krieg Commissar models. Although of course not actually Krieg soldiers themselves, these Imperial Commissars are outfitted to endure the rigours of the battlefield with their comrades complete with gas mask and rebreather. The Commissar`s role is to instil discipline in the troops and advise their commanders, as well as curb the Death Korps` "enthusiasm" where needed. We have two great Commissar models designed by Simon Egan, the first shown here overseeing his troops, is a Commissar on foot who can be built with either a laspistol or power sword (both are supplied) and would make a great addition to any Imperial Guard force. The second is a Death Korps Commissar Tank Commander shown here which you can use either for your Death Korps forces or Imperial Guard Armoured Companies.

New Eldar Avatar & Wave Serpent Type II
New for the Eldar are a new variant Avatar model and the Wave Serpent II for Warhammer 40,000. The superbly detailed Eldar Avatar with Spear by Juan Diaz offers a variation in armament and pose from our other Avatar and comes supplied with a length of brass rod to form the spear haft. This model will appeal to those of you who buy our products just to model and paint as well as play games, as it will make a fantastic centrepiece for your display cabinet or diorama and would superb battling a greater daemon.

The Wave Serpent Type II designed by Will Hayes offers you a variation on the current plastic model that brings this sleek war machine`s style in line with our Falcon II and Scorpion super tank kits, and is available either as a Conversion Kit or as a Complete Model with all Wave Serpent plastics you´ll need to make a complete tank.

These models are perfect if you`re looking to expand your Eldar War Host in time for Warhammer 40,000 Apocalypse, with the Wave Serpents adding firepower and manoeuvrability for your troops while the Avatar can smash apart enemy tanks with ease.

New Aeronautica Imperialis Marauder Variants
Also available for pre-order are two new variant Marauders for our Aeronautica Imperialis game. These two which can see pictured here, are the Marauder Vigilant and the Marauder Colossus and were designed by Phil Stutchinskas. The Vigilant is a specially outfitted long range reconnaissance aircraft, while the Colossus on the other hand is a heavy bomber, designed to carry a single bunker-busting bomb to smash fortified targets.

Malcador Heavy Tank with Lascannons
We have another new variant of the ancient Malcador Heavy Tank available to order, this version which you can see here features a twin-linked lascannon in the turret, a hull mounted demolisher cannon, and the sponson options of lascannon, heavy stubber and heavy bolter. A mobile fortress bristling with anti-tank firepower, this version of the Malcador specialises in destroying fortified positions and wreaking havoc with enemy vehicles. Deigned by Darren Parrwood the model is also supplied with both an Imperial Guard and Renegade tank commander, and is usable by either forces. I really like this model, there`s something decidedly old fashioned and industrial about it, making it a real land battleship in looks.

Ich persönlich finde diesen Avatar hier viel besser als die Schwertvariante. Ich glaub die Oberschenkel sehen auch nur auf diesem Foto so dick aus. Wenn man sich mal die weiteren Bilder auf der FW-Homepage anschaut, wirken die dort nicht zu dick.

Wie läuft das eigentlich mit den Serpents ab. Wenn es jetzt die neuen Kits gibt, werden dann die alten auslaufen oder wird es die noch weiter geben? Sonst müsste ich mir vielleicht noch schnell ein paar alte FW-Serpentwaffen besorgen.

Der Avatar gefällt mir um LÄngen besser als der alte. Keine merkwürdigen Moonwalkbeine und die Pose ist generell besser, finde ich.[/b]
Ehrlich gesagt sieht der aus wie in "Ihr habt mir mein Gebiss geklaut, ihr verdammten Bengel!"
(wenn man sich den Zahnstocher weg denkt)

Ja, irgendwie schon. Umso länger ich mir den "neuen" anschaue, desto mehr gefällt mir der "alte", war wohl doch nur das " ah was neues" Einfluß.
Doch zufrieden, dass ich den anderen habe.

"... it threw him off balance and his target is far away." Sieht tatsächlich ein wenig wie Leonidas aus. Eine Spartaner-Armee aus 300 Avataren ... ?![/b]

macht doch nur 13500 Britische Pfund (also nach xe.com 19,298.42 €) aber der wenigsten ist portofrei
