I'd love Idoneth to get more Sea Beasts but I'd also love the Fyreslayers to get some love as well!! I'm torn between an Aelf and a Bearded place. The 40k Shadowspear battlebox featured all new models for each side, but that's currently the exception - the current trend definitely looks like single heroes in the battleboxes, with potentially a larger release a few months down the line 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its the pom poms though, then surely its just as easy to remove the pom poms and render it safe, as it is to destroy its tail and render it unusable? I feel like warhammer fans are all pretty handy with craft tools, and could do that? Seems very wasteful to just dispose of an entire run of toys. They really should have designed it better in the first place, especially as most people I've seen taljung about it would have preferred a non christmas themed squig to start with! It's covering themselves legally. They have said there is a potential hazard and not only given instruction to destroy but also information on how to destroy the item. If someone chooses to ignore the recall and sigmar forbid the worse happens, GW and the company who made the toy will be legally covered. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yukishiro1 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) It doesn't eliminate legal liability for injuries caused. You can't put out a defective product and then immunize yourself from liability simply by issuing a recall. That's not why companies do recalls. Companies do recalls to try to limit the extent of the damage by making customers aware before injuries happen so they can avoid them, to comply with recall laws, to force resellers to stop selling the product, and/or to lower the possibility of being hit with punitive damages for having knowingly disregarded a safety risk. In some cases if you can specifically show that someone was aware of the recall and chose to disregard it it may limit or in extreme circumstances even eliminate the company's responsibility, but that's typically difficult to do unless the company goes to the trouble of hiring someone to make actual physical contact with every purchaser, which companies don't usually do unless the defect is really extreme and super dangerous. It's especially unlikely to be effective with injuries to children, since children can't knowingly disregard a risk, and judges and juries are typically very reluctant to let an adult guardian's knowledge of a risk prevent a child from recovering for injuries caused by a defective product.

I think this was when they were still feeling out the use of CAD sculpting for plastic minis and they really were both surprisingly sturdy and lethally sharp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucentia Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 As it happens most if not all GW kits do have a warning on the packaging for small components and sharp points, I believe that's also the reason for the 12+ age recommended age restriction on the kits? So I'm afraid you may be out of luck in claiming damages for your spear-magnet thumb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenericEdgyName Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Soooo with that much stuff out of the way, any guesses for tommorrow's pre-order previews? Theoretically we could get nurgle already, but tbh for the first time in a long time I feel like we don't have that much we know about but isn't released yet.

I got the impression the sorcerer was it. Miniature wise it’s just the new sorcerer but from what I’ve been hearing the army has been tweaked and sounds cool. Be interesting how it will fit into the meta at a tournament level but from a narrative point of view it sounds cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indecisive Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Falling back to the theme of 4chan "leaks" I found one that sounded plausible. Here is a snippet of it to focus a bit: Quote >Idoneth vs Fyreslayers box in April (planned)>Idoneth get a "champion" she is infantry, has a shield, and dual falchions>Fyreslayers get a "thane-temple guard" Priest Hero with a magmapike>Idoneth book afterwards, Tide rules are gone because they're too rigid; replaced with new "Flowing" mechanic>No endless spells or new units beside the above, Lotann gets slight buff but still not worth it AoS flipping to a dull battletome spam release with minimal models? Sounds likely, 40k from rumours has a big year coming. Idoneth get no endless spells (despite DoK getting them) and just a single, crabless mini? I can see that. Lotann still bad? Above all, this specific nugget is the most likeliest of all things that makes me want to believe it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyreslayers have so few kits right now I am suprised they are not getting souped tbh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
