Beasts of Chaos Rumour Summary

[Archibald_TK]

These Minotaurs...

Do they mean that GW got Rob Liefeld to design some of these sculpts ?

Then you just buy Minos from somewhere else. GW is NOT the only game in town.

I'm far more concerned about how the army plays than I am the miniatures anyway. A good painter can make even horrid miniatures (which I don't think these are), look good. A well written Army book is far, far more important IMO.

You could accidentally on purpose put the pics in a post

The more and more I look at those minos. The more I like them lol.

I guess with a slightly more subtle colour scheme they would look better. And if painted brown would look hairier.

(I still think the feet are poor though)

Hmmm, if you look at the far right one, there is an orange shape at the end of his arm. Could that be a drum?

Could be part of the new Background. Perhaps their armour is made by Chaos Dwarfs, in a similar style to the armour they made for Blorcs?

That's always a sign that the sculpting etc. is "top notch" a "shape" at the end of his arm may "be a drum" well done

Ok, here's the Razorgor, and ANOTHER Razorgor........ let's play spot the difference!!!!

[static grass]

Hahaha- that is really bad. That is seriously awful.

What were they thinking?? Which manager left that stopped this stuff "making the cut".

Wow.

I mean wow.

I am not sure if I have ever seen a worse GW figure.

I can tell by those thick sausage roll spikes who sculpted it by the way.

[Elazar The Glorified]

Wow, that really is as comical as you guys said! What's with the mad eye?!
I would rather purchase your pic Hastings than that I reckon!

[Beastlord Karankawa]

Scoping out my eyes now....

[Dai-Mongar]

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! MY EYES! Where'd I put that rusty spoon?
I didn't want to believe it, but the photoshopped Pumbaa is actually better.

[Ultimate Life Form]

Hakuna Matata!!!

[75hastings69]

My work here is done

Well done GW for taking a massive leap backwards with the beasts releases....... mind you I have my eye on that Razorgor...... he looks kind of familiar.....

[Belakor]

Ha ha ha ha...

That mini is enough for me to actually start Beastmen.

Awesome!

Even if I can't spot the difference!

[BoosterX]

Only the Mad eye is off, the rest is fine.

[Einholt]

First, thank you Scryer/Gonads and Hastings

WHAT IN SWEET HELL! The pumbagor is the antithesis of quality.

I don't think the Minos are horrible per say, but the feet bother me too much, the Bestigors are highly uninspired and the old metals are much better imo, Gors/Ungors yea new not significantly better looking then old. Bottom line is no release here is completely satisfying and considering GW prices in general if they expect me to buy I need to be completely satisfied. So no Beast men this time around I guess the book cannot save them.

[Kronos]

DANG, thats, thats one bad pig and i don't mean that in a good way, howeverthe only problem i see with it is the cartoon eyes, bit of filing and gs can fix that, but still very bad.

[Harry]

You can't say you weren't warned.

Poor Pumbagor .... will nobody love him?

[Tyranno1]

"Looks at razorgor"

I dont BELIVE it!

Really? Thats, just. Wow, words fail me here, they really do. I was willing to accept the minos, but this is just....just.

It looks like GW stepped back in time, back to when the first beastmen were ever sculpted, and nicked all the designs and models of one of thier test beast-spawn.

The only difference I can see is Hastings spent a bit longer colouring his one. lol

I think I feel a song coming on:

Hakuna Matata!
GW think they deserve praise!

Hakuna Matata!
That sculptor should be flayed!

[Rikkjourd]

The negative comments about the pumbagor prior to showing this pic made my expectations so low that the model actually is better than I expected... but still bad.

The body is probably ok but the tail, face, spikes and haircut just look stupid, as far as one can tell from the pic. Oh, and the overall pose and "feel" of the model is not that epic.

Now to decide: Which one is the biggest fail, roidcows or pumbagor? =)
