New Heroes?

[Eldarien]

It seems GW is launching heroes in plastic each month. We are getting a Beastmen Shaman in August and last month it was the Goblin Shaman and the zavage orc warlord. Any rumours of what's coming next?
Thanks in advance for your replies!

There is rumoured to be a High Elf Character spotted by someone reliable, but forgotten who. Also there are apparently 24 plastic characters in total being release and so far we have had 13, so a good 11 left in the pipeline just waiting to be releashed.

Dark Elf Sorceress
Lizardmen Saurus Oldblood
Savage Orc Big Boss
Goblin Shaman
Captain of the Empire
Empire Master Engineer
Vampire Counts Wight King
Vampire Counts Necromancer
Vampire Counts Cairn Wraith
Vampire Counts Tomb Banshee
Nurgle Chaos Lord
Warriors of Chaos Sorcerer Lord
Warriors of Chaos Tzeentch Sorcerer Lord

Already mentioned. I would love a plastic Dreadlord model. The metal ones are all kinda bleh in my opinion.

i just cant seem to understand why theres no Bretonnian character... were still stuck with those weve got for like ages....... after seeing those new kits i could picture an awsome bret model in my mind tho(A)

Same here, would really like a plastic Dreadlord and Death Hag model.

I'd love to get some more options for Skaven as well - all the plastic characters for them are parts of much bigger box sets. No Eschin love, no unmounted Gray Seers etc.

Any info about this hero? A mage, perhaps? Or maybe a noble or prince?

Pretty simple I'd say - they're pretty much all on horseback, and the plastic character kits don't have room on the sprue for a horse.

Also, in what way is this thread a rumour or news?

Edit: that'll teach me to be smug... this is the General forum!

I'm fairly sure there's rumours of a Wood Elf character (or maybe even two) floating around

The whole point of these plastic characters was to let the designer team go nuts and make what they want. Since they are clamp-pack together at 4 at a time (hope that make sense), I'm lead to believe by some of the King of Rumours on here that all 24 are done and just awaiting releases. Cannot wait to see them all have there has yet to have been a rubbish one in my opinion.

What about the characters from Island of Blood? Or are they not counted.

No as these are all stand alone characters with random releases.
