They are loving goofy as poo poo, and GW knows it so they went all in.

They are going to allow resellers to have web carts again too. Plus there is a skirmish game coming for both 40k and AoS.

Too bad AoS is still a poo poo game and 40k is bloated all to hell.

That's a crit.
OK, with the gatling cannons and power-cords-to-weapons and space-looking poo poo, I legitimately couldn't tell for which game these were meant. For real I was like, "Squats making a comeback, are you loving kidding me?!?"

These models are stupid in the exact way I want a GW model to be stupid. I want to know more about the steampunk balloon dwarves and the kind of adventures they get into.

If you can't love dwarves with harpoon guns having from giant copper dirigibles, I don't know what to tell you.

They are rad.

lmao

Those are some good sculpts. They have character, they are silly as gently caress and they aren't suffering from the immediately apparent t-poses of earlier AoS sculpts. They clear the very low bar set by earlier AoS models. But holy gently caress are they ever dumb, and undoubtedly over priced. I love me some dwarves and dumb poo poo, I'm basically the target market for something like this. Still would not buy. The big balloon gadgets seems kind of sterile compared to the rest of the dumb models.

Can't wait for them to end up in Age of the Emperor though.

A mathematician, like a painter or poet, is a maker of patterns. If his patterns are more permanent than theirs, it is because they are made with ideas.

I'm willing to give partial credit to whomever decided on the quintuple-barrelled shotgun, but that's the lone bright point in those miniatures. The drawing of the airship is a little better too because at least it doesn't look like as much like a repaint of a bath toy, and the harpoon gun is kind of cute.

Steel not 100% satisfied and they reek of new GW sculpting design, but the mecha-dorfs are surprisingly non-poo poo.

I'm the steel balls. Seriously, that gun is more phallic than the glue gun I converted with that in mind.

There was also a 20 second clip (which showed nothing) about some new "tournament centric" thing for AoS. They use the initial tune from W:AR at a much higher pitch...

If someone wanted those dorfs for, like, KoW I would maybe make a perfunctory chiding noise about buying from gw but then I'd look the other way

I don't know how anyone's looking at the tophat dwarf without A: wanting to punch the nerd in hipster steampunk armour and B: imagining that he just had his backpack clipped onto a balloon and is about to float off into the sky screaming impotently like a looney toons character.

I kinda want it. The thing is loving absurdly stupid. But it's so stupid it's AWESOME. Like they couldn't make it more ridiculous if they tried. And I love whoever created these things. I think it's The Producers of Dorf minis.
