Patience, the thing only started under an hour ago. Pics might have to wait until attendees are back home.
philbrad always does this - he's such a tease!Still, would've been nice to hear whether they look the same as the one in WD to put to rest whether "it's a FW model" or not.

Let's resist the temptation to spam the thread with update requests. Phil will update as and when he can. I'll happily purge further off-topic posts.
Edit I've copied Gonzo's post above in from the IG rumour thread as it looks as if GW are doing their own blow by blow account.

Well no Wifi in Bugman's means I'd have to use my phone `as a modem ...
Highlights for 40K
Seminar :
Mainly Apoc and IG. Not much forthcoming on the IG really. Models are VERY nice. I've shots of these painted and unpainted and the Valkyrie sprues. More to follow.

Primaris is nice, though I did think the old models were excellent and didn't need replacing. Still prefer them.
The Ratlings are fab, and a big improvement.
The Valk is lovely. A must buy.

Check out The Phazer's Tyranid painting blog.
Looks like they did just do a straight conversion from resin to plastic for the valk. I like it a lot.
Primaris psyker looks awesome. Will have to get one even if I dont use him, the model is sweet. He fits in with the three pack of old psykers very well, sort of a leader version of them.

All those valkyries have a uniform flying stand, much bulkier than the current one, so hopefully there will be nore more messing around with trophies and coat hangers for other FW flyers.
Any glimpses of any more stuff other than IG?

This looks to be the side-on view of the base.
EDITED to prevent confusion seeing as my follow-up post was deleted.

Looks like a cross pattern from above, fitted into someting bigger than a 60mm base.
LOS and range may be interesting with them, sure, everything can see them, but if it is that high in the air, it's going to cut a bit off the range of weapons to and from it.
A bit of speculation, but maybe it has some sort of thing to represent flyerness even as a skimmer, like a Shrouding ability, where you have to see if you are in range to hit it.
Ooh, just niticed how nice and flat and open the sides of the nose are. NOSE ART!
Nope, loader for the big ork gun.

That's one demographic busting picture right there:

It's...all...so...beautful :cries:
I will be buying lots of ratlings, as they have quickly become one of my favourite models ever.
The halfling on the left looks a lot more "40k" than the old ones. They all had fairly placid facial expressions, whereas this one looks like he's in an actual battle. The new Psyker, too, looks ready to kick ass and take names.
