And with Frgt/10 confirmation it seems that this rumour is genuine, thanks to everyone for the infos.
Now let's see what we will get for the other plastics set beside the (more or less) confirmed Tomb Guards, and hopefully we will soon get some infos from the book. ^_^
Yeah we are getting are first really info. I sort of like the idea of the snakes and I cant wait to see them
So with this info we have three kits. Snakes, sphinx and TG. Why I hoping for one more.I'm not to sad see as two of the kits are two in one.
I pray to whatever Khemri god that there are some new exciting metal blisters for characters/lords/heroes as well. Skaven seemed to get a lot of those during their waves. Like more weapon options, mount options etc. This will be the longest day ever...
I was really hoping for core mummies; or some sort of new core. Dont worry this isnt a moan and groan about the skeletons. Although 3 plastic kits does seem kind of weak for such a long awaited release. But I suppose we will have to wait and see. From the sounds of it so far we have a pretty exciting bunch of new kits![]()
I find the concept of snake riders quite silly, I'll reserve judgement until I see the models and rules though. Not that I have anything against silly.
In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only British.

snake surfers??..... oh my god that one popped up from knowhere
Source: Tomb-kings.netTo make you forgive me a little, two big anticipations:
- the Snake cavalry will be the best Monstrous Cavalry in the warhammer world!!!
- the big blades in the Necroshpinx (the winged one) confers one attack with HKB (bye bye Hidra and Hellpit).
Yes, and you've got to admit, given that TK only average about one release a decade, this is a little... underwhelming. Still I'm seriously hoping for some character blisters. The Kings/princes are great, the Icon bearer I can live with, but I can't describe how much I want a new liche priest or two.
Still, the main thing is the army book, by most Holy Ptra I hope they got that right, its going to make or break the army for the next 10 yrs.
Sounds nice! HKB eh, this will be interesting indeed....
Nulla è reale, tutto è lecito. Requiescat in pace
Necropolis knights and sepulchre stalkers? Skellies surfing on snakes?
Sounds ... awful.
You mean theyll beat Rhinox Riders? I somehow doubt it.
Or Bloodcrushers maybe? A skelly on a snake > Demonic creature on bigger meaner demonic creature?
Heck I'll hate if they beat Blood Knights or Grail knights.
Please read the thread where these confirmations originate.
Skeletons on surfboards was a conversion idea the poster put into the mix to make use of the spare large shields in the new kits; they are not actual models.
Snake Surfin' Skeletons are gonna have to have some seriously slick sculpts to counter how ridiculous the concept sounds.
Liking the sound of the Sphinx so far.
Sweet baby jebus, surfing on snakes - is that the sequel to snakes on a plane? Sounds terrible, of course as a previous poster mention full judgment until rules and pics are released!
I remember more than a month ago someone mentioned surfing skeletons on snakes and everybody had a bloody good laugh at him....turns out he was right all along by the sounds of it....
Any word on new character models??
I'm pretty gutted about no mummies - ffs we spent 6 weeks talking about how we'd all love them to be true....for what? At least someone in the know could of said with discretion "mummies are a no no folks" What are we, a big joke or something. There are people out there who are having a really good laugh I bet!
So.....so far we have heavy cav moster things
and two types of sphinx , correct?
.......
This release is gonna be epic or ....epic fail.
Cheers to everyone who has contributed rumours and discussion
Nate.
