Apparently Karnage was in GW recently and was told by a staffer that Deathstrikes are in the new IG Codex. There are also rumoured a new LR variant called the "Punisher" and a new Arty vehicle called the "Collusus". Beaten to it lol. But as I said, some of these rumours seem to have been confirmed.

I was told it is £35 for the vaulk. Same bloke who told me about the stompa months ago - and let me play about with the half painted stompa and stormlord the store had in on Friday gone. |

If that IS the plastic one, then someone at GW needs a pat on the back for it being a PERFECT replica of the resin one. I really hope it is, but I'm not convinced. |

if that is the plastic valkyrie then i'm a happy bunny, though i do have to agree with digits that it is a very close copy of the forgeworld one and that i still can't see the financial side of bringing one out in plastic (and the stompa but i'm a miserable and tight old sod), good find though if its true though |

Christ, and here's me thinking "hmmm, 5,000pts of guard is enough, maybe I'll stop now." Clearly, it's not. 10,000pts is the way to go. |
