Word on the street is that this guy is a resin test-run, with the final plastics being a bit more detailed, particularly in the helmet.
With UK GD happening in a mere matter of hours now (okay, technically day(s), but those are measured in hours!), more of these are soon to be flooding the interwebs... but a sneak peak is always a nice heads up, innit?
I'm sharing this over at AGG, as we have a big DE fan there. Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteI saw that this morning and almost sent you an e-mail.
ReplyDeletefor a not final, he's still pretty sexxah.
I think he needs a bit more work on the helmet though.
Me likey as-is. The shoulder stock on the weapon looks a bit strange though. I hope it's just bent.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of the helmet, that's actually a main place that more detail will be happening - so that works out. I think a tad more work on the face mask would about do it on that front myself... it's meant to be much more guardian-esque, which I think they've captured well.
ReplyDeleteAs for the stock... I see what you mean, but it's also an obvious throwback to the current weapons.... though this one seems to be a bit wonkier than even the old models... heh.
If that's what we'll be seeing, looks like I found my "second army".
ReplyDeleteAnd, if you haven't seen them by now, pics are up about everywhere. This guy was definitely an old (about a year old, in fact) test model.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I want to be happy that the new models are so pretty, or to curse GW for making me think about selling off my current DE and starting from scratch...
