(TBF, a bit sad not to get ZERO new models and no Forsaken - even if I still have 20 of them unassembled...)

Yeah, I was wondering where the Forsaken were. They'd better not have left them behind, I was looking forward to picking up a box to mix in some bits with my Chaos Warriors.

YMMV on this one because for some folks, the first image represents some of the worst excesses of OTT 5th/6th ed bling and space marine minis being encrusted with layers of chunky oversized chapter-specific junk. It’s the same as the particularly bad turn Space Wolves took, just not quite as cringey.

Moreover it breaks any sense of visual hierarchy: all these dudes (and even the basic death company tbh) were more ornamented than Dante.

I just think these are way too far the other way, to the point of being boring. The poses are also not great, and even the weapon designs are a lot less unique than they were. They just feel really flat, for what are meant to be the best of a chapter that really values art and aesthetics. They don’t even have their nipples anymore :(

Weirdly enough, they always do this in white dwarf. They shared the names of the sculptors of the leviathan box set too and sometimes do interviews with designers of major releases. In most of these articles, they share the full name of the designers. 

Oh, I misinterpreted. I thought this was from a book release at first glance. I take back my words.
It's better than nothing, but having it in a magazine isn't the sort of step forward in attribution I was hoping for.

@Whitefang back me up I don't see a Mini doomwheel for Warcry or Underworld, and I'm quite confident we have seen all Skaven releases for main AOS for the time being. 

So can the mini doomwheel you rumored be something akin to the Kharadron exclusive model but for a warplock engineer ?

It's true that between Kill Team Saturday and NOVA thursday we should see the Warhammer Plus models revealed !

Have they finally pulled their heads out of their butts on the crediting artists and contributors thing?
This is a pretty big step in the right direction! Very happy to see that.

The downside is that it is in a WD rather than the proper box/ book, but a step is a step.

Mini-Doomwheel.... can't help but picture a Skaven on a wooden unicycle. 

A hamster wheel but the skaven is running in it to power it.

Considering that the warhammer community stated that there are no new models scheduled in this release, that must be a massive amount of hopium.

The key imo is the word release. As they are doing now the releases in batches, maybe we have another one later on with stuff like the Forgotten, I mean the Forsaken, and they include as well those new minis. Considering how late the resin O&G shaman has come, it wouldn't be that crazy.

Even then, we saw the resin shaman a long time before release. GW does like showing new minis, so the lack of them so far means I doubt their existence.

Just remember a mini Doomwheel could come in Underworlds (the first new season box of an edition tends to have the two factions from the most recent starter) or Warcry and would fit quite well with the theme of the game.

Considering how crazy the CoS religious bit could be, it wouldn't surprise me that the bikes from Zenestra's followers would be something like:

I'm in for the Malformed Flesh Eaters. (malformed flesh eaters who eat malformed flesh)

I flicked through my TOW books and the preview articles and I can't seem to find them being used in any photographs, which is very strange. 

I wonder if there's been a problem with the moulds? If it was as simple as not wanting to return them I doubt they'd add the rules back for them at all.

Could also be that with how reviled the Forsaken sculpts were they didn't think anybody would actually buy them and just convert.

If they were making such considerations, surely those stinkin' Chaos Ogres would never have seen the light of day again!
