I love it, want to see 360. My only wish is the head had a little more personality, but that's very minor. Super glad it's coming out and massive improvement on the old ones.

Apologies if it's been mentioned by nice to see Gyrocopters appear in the new fluff:

I love that they keep making the battletomes better buys, just wish they could retroactively fix the old ones. Excited to see what the new format is. I'd love to buy a battletome but the value just hasn't been there for me yet, even with the addition of lores/traits etc.
-
I love the FEC/Bonesplitterz/Beastclaw approach and hope they keep doing it. I'm as or more excited for the old models to get rebased and re-envisioned as I am for entirely new armies. The only dream I have is they would make sure plastic options are available for heroes and such. Turns me off the Bonesplitterz with their resin/metal heroes.

Sounds exciting. Hope there's an AoS version of this coming too:

I opted for the Spire of Dawn over the battleforces. At the end of the day, even though the battleforces were great deals, most of them just weren't the actual miniatures I wanted, and I've longed for the IoB Skaven for a long time now.
-
Between all my armies I roughly have about 7,500 points. I'd say 1,500 of that is unpainted/in progress. Got a box of old models from when I was a kid too though and most of that is unpainted/broken down to a fair degree, don't really think of it as my collection.
-
Start collecting price, geez. They make it hard to stick to the "no buying until done painting" rule.

Man, I really want the plastic Skaven weapon teams from that set. Pretty cool thing for them to do. Gives me the feeling they're going to edit the old aelves factions a bit in 2017 and have it make more sense. They over-factionized elves in the first Order book I think.
-
I wonder if there was a change of schedule behind the scenes and the AoS Tzeentch stuff wasn't ready to go yet in its entirety, so they moved the 40k Tzeentch up, hence the big AoS release gap and strange reappearance of Tzaangors. Who knows though.
I saw on another forum that the battleforces are going to be limited? Ugh! Tough decisions ahead...
-
Keys make me think of Fyreslayers/dwarfs, but I don't know much about 40k. Arm quite strange. Wonder if it's from upcoming Tzeentch-Steamhead box and is a Tzeentch character of some sort taunting the duardin with some of their keys. Small arm though considering the size of the sprue plastic. No clue really but looks pretty neat. Also looks like I'd break it cutting it out of the sprue and filing it.

I know it's fairly heretical to say this but I'm totally down for more 40k-AoS crossover, and even merging the warscroll system to the point that both games can be played with the same models.
-
GW has been doing a lot of funny stuff with their packaging ever since AoS hit. The description on the site doesn't even acknowledge the shields on the sprues, and it looks like the box doesn't acknowledge the obvious AoS use for the models either. Why do that, and why put in the extra cost to make two boxes, if they go that route? Few other similar examples in the last year and a half. Just a bit bizarre but I like the tzaangors!
-
More than the handbook, I hope they revisit the 4 pages at some point. A lot of space is wasted in there and some things aren't clear, such as piling in.
For the handbook, more battleline options and making allegiances a bit looser would be nice.
-
Seems very AoS Tzeentch to me. Loving this rumour thing but fiending for some hard plastic results. On another note starting to wonder if there will be any Black Friday sales this year.
-
I've found the new GW plastics aren't fun, for me at least, to put together. Even though the old stuff made perhaps worse models, I'm still nostalgic for being able to pose the arms and such in wild ways. Nowadays it seems like everything is assembly by the numbers. It feels like work to me, and gluing the guys together used to be my favourite part. Tangent anyway.
I'm hoping we get some word on whether the battleforce boxes will be permanent or not. They are such great deals, would be incredible if they stuck around.

40k Tzaangors seem a bit odd to me. Small box yet duplicate sculpts, not too big on that. Anyway, 40k, great and all, I'll just continue salivating for AoS news.

Yes they've big spikey necks collars, all bare heads and the 2 hander has a pose you can't get with ardboyz. Nice box then! I will not be getting it until I have finished painting all my ogors sometime around 2059
The Stormcast one looks like a very, very nice saving too> 10 liberators (not the monopose), venator/azyros, Celestant Prime, 2 Dracothian Guard, 5 Paladins that I can see.
That's a must have for anyone even just looking for dracoths and the prime.
Nice! That box and the Sylvaneth are incredible value.
-
Ironjawz definitely stands out to me as the most attractive set, pairs really well with the Start Collecting. Are we sure that's 10 Brutes, not 10 Ardboyz?

Hope it's real. Looks pretty exciting. Different spin on Stormcast would be refreshing too.
-
Mega bundles sound a little boring. I hope there's a Black Friday sale to go along with it. Last year they packaged models that sell on squares with round bases. That would be a cool thing to do again.
-
At this point I'm expecting they're waiting until they redo the Grand Alliance books to put allegiances in for the factions that don't have them yet. That way they can do them all at once, plus other ones, and give a little more reason to buy the GA books, which though I bought two I regretted very quickly after considering how fast they go out of date.
Can't wait to hear about sales and bundle deals. Black Friday last year was a nice start before the Start Collecting stuff in January. I have a feeling there is going to be some good deals this year.

Stormcast battletome like Disciples of Tzeentch! Yes, great way to catch them up.
