Any new plastics due?

[GomezAddams]

I seem to remember talk awhile back about something elvish being on the cards but... the whole plastics development has gone a little quiet which is surprising as the slayers seem to have been a huge success. I had a quick nosey around the AOW forum but I couldn't find anything - does anyone knows whats happened?

I heard plastic witches for dark elves, but no idea if thats right, or when.

Best to keep in mind that it'll be Renedra making them, and they have a lot on their plate already, I wouldn't hold my breath on these.

Gaelion over on AoW's forum just posted that a new plastic regiment box was in the works. The preorder should be available in January 2012. As of yet, release date unknown.

Exciting! I just hope it is plastic 'Witch Elves' as has been speculated. It has never been confirmed as far as I know, all we have is wishful thinking and the assumption that AoW will go with the popular choice.

We can only hope. Gaelion's been playing coy about the not-Witch Elves since I suggested it a year ago, so it would be nice to finally get them.

Between the possibility of AoW plastic Witch Elves and DFG plastic SF troops, this might be a good year for all-female armies.

High hopes for female models this year!

Well it is now the week after the week we were supposed to find out about the new plastic kit and still no word.

I think it's too soon to discount gaelion's comment about how it "should be on the website by next week." I do think that (for better or worse) AoW runs on a pretty slow schedule. One of the hurdles of being a small business, I suppose.

I'm curious to see how the "war-cast" announcement will factor in to this rumored release, if at all. The fact that right now it's direct only is a little bit sad, but I have so much collecting/painting to do that I can't really be too upset by it.

Here's a development: Still not many specifics per se...

This first War-cast release is a multi-part regiment, 20 multi-part minis, torsos/legs/arms/heads (20 different ones!)/different weapon combos, command accessories, ... for a hint to what it is: Apoc, War Price for War-cast will be not as cheap as plastic, but still very affordable for building regiments, and seeing the detail definition I really thyink is worth the small difference.

Pieces do not come in a big sprue, they come in small plastic bags, organized by type (trosos, legs, heads, ...).

Very excited!

I'm posting this in the War-cast thread as well.
