Behold! Oh....wait, did you mean you wanted to see one that GW would charge $150 for? Reds Indeed! Wait I'm not the only one who does that?

Ohmigosh, Magg! That's a hilarious video! When the girl's head hit the ground my three dachshunds thought someone was knocking on my door, freaked out, and started barking! ;D
*Hands Hetlan some bacon*
But yeah, I'm still not buying the Space Guppy.

Ooops … it seems that I have unintentionally hijacked the thread Was that your drunk friends? I just showed it to my brother, we can't stop laughing. The more you see it, the funnier it gets. No, that was none of my friends, but yes, this video really is one of the funniest things I have found in the internet. I know it for years, but I always have to laugh when I see it. Maybe it is because of the inevitability of the outcome or it is because of the helpless leg movements of the poor girl … I always have to laugh ;D Ohmigosh, Magg! That's a hilarious video! When the girl's head hit the ground my three dachshunds thought someone was knocking on my door, freaked out, and started barking! ;D No Sir! This story is hilarious *awkwardly looks for new information about the Stormraven* Err … it is called ChibiHawk *pleased with himself, he walks away* -Magg

*awkwardly looks for new information about the Stormraven* Err … it is called ChibiHawk *pleased with himself, he walks away* -Magg I beg to differ - I feel "Windy Crow" is far more insulting. I mean appropriate... As a random addition regarding the new model, I asked at GW HQ if they had any other pictures or the model itself I could take a look at (no, I didn't expect anything to come of it...), but they seemed really nervous about it for some reason, and blurted out that they had no idea what/when it would be released. Might be nothing, but I just found it amusing.

Chibihawk? Daaaaaawwww!!!! Its adowable!!!
On a side note I do like it. Those Blood what-not myssiles are devastating. Also the turret I think looks pretty cool.

A friend of mine was in the GW store in Munich and got a glance at sprue of the Stormraven. Sorry, but I do not have any pictures. The guys in red were very strict ...
Somehow he could not identify the parts, which make up the rear part of the model (new models always draw a large crowd, that include a lot of grabbing fingers), but he said that there are all options from the codex included in the sprue together with parts with inquisitorial heraldry on it, too, so Grey Knights will definitely get the option in the new codex.
He also heard that the BlackBoxes will arrive the stores on next Wednesday, so maybe there will be some pics of the Chibi Hawk at the GW homepage, too. Keep your eyes peeled!

Excellent, then I can just go to the GW homepage to find a pic of it in case there's a medical emergency at my store next week and I need to induce vomiting... Reds

Don't be so sure the Inquisitorial heraldry meand it'll be usable by Grey Knights - it could be simply some reference to it's use in Deathwatch deployments, like when Marines return to their chapter and retain the Deathwatch shoulder pad.
Did he mention what kind of Inquisitorial heraldry?

Actually, in the Blood Angels codex, it is stated in the Stormraven fluff that the Grey Knights do use them, IIRC--haven't looked at my codex in a while. But people have been buzzing about the GKs having access to the Stormraven for some time now.
I still won't be buying the Space Guppy. *Vomits*

Just found this. On the second picture you can see a part, that has the shape of the Grey Knight chapter symbol. Somehow he could not identify the parts, which make up the rear part of the model (new models always draw a large crowd, that include a lot of grabbing fingers) Hmmm ... me too ... and that without a horde of customers Cheers! -Magg

I stand corrected... maybe this is why Blood Angels have had to wait for their space fish - because it'll be a grey knights vehicle as well.

Ok rethink: 40k isn't reality, so you can't really try and apply things like physics, sanity, common sense... but you better have seriously strong faith in the machine spirit before stepping aboard that contraption.

So the blood-guppy is a grey-guppy too? I might have to buy on for some conversion work, unless the rear end doesn't look as ridiculous, in which case I might just buy one for the fun of it.

I think if i was some how persuaded to part my hard earned money for the piece of crap i'd only be able to do one thing with it. Make it into a crashed vehicle after it nose dived into the ground.

Maybe the space wolf version could unleash 9 million fenrisian wolves instead of a dread.
No, I was just kidding GW developers.. Uh-oh!

I know i have said it before but i quite like the look of this model; I don't see where all the animosity is coming from. Can't wait to start seeing them on the table. Looks like a nice kit to build or convert too. Maybe I will do some grey knights to use, erm, I mean "ally with" my Guard.

I should requisition myself some hydras then. Where is that munitorium manual? I don't want to be flogged for incorrect paperwork again...
On a side note, still hoping plastic Hydras are on the cards the summer.

Post by cheminhaler on Jan 18, 2011 14:57:05 GMT -5
Me too. I wanted 3 hydras now, but it's so much cheaper to get a chimera with a dozer blade and a LR eradicator for the same points and a lot less cash.

I'm with Trickstick. I don't see why a model of a fictional craft gets so much hate.
Fiction! GW fiction! There are no laws of phsyics to break, only laws of 'looks cool to the designer.'
