That's what my question was, friend. Jungle Fighters should not be in a city! Gah!

Trees are not made out of metal! Go back to your jungles, Catachans!

Stuff comes op for pre-order only a month before the release date. So Im guessing it would be hard to find anyone who selling pre-orders yet.
I can understand Catachans in the big city, but it would be better to advertise them in their 'natural' environment.

I suppose, but an employee at my GW told me that this was because, people would buy the box sets, and the models wouldn't look as spectacular as the ones printed.
Stupid, yes. Legal reasons, yes.

I kinda like the new boxes with the models on them, especially the space marine boxes where they go in (like the Mightylebaeu  ) and picasa or photoshop them so that it looks like they're in a strange environment and like they're shooting at some unseen hostile. Say what you like about SMurfs, but their boxes are cool (and, gotta throw this in: fluff wise, Astartes are our friends ) |

Woot! Go Astartes!
Is it just me, or does the Imperial Guard seem like the Astartes' cheerleaders, when the SoB would make more sense? And the Daemon Hunters are like the coach, and chaos are like the washouts that want revenge. and the eldar are the team that everybody destroys.
Any who...I think the Space Marine boxes are kick@ss, who doesn't like some harsh justice? But the Imperial Guard are better. By far.

Imperial Guard pwn! That's why I'm here! That's why all of you are here. I rarely lose against marines becuase Guard are just that awesome. 'nuff said!  @solar's first comment: I don't think the SoB would make better cheerleaders (in terms of ideaology). This is how I see it: Star Players: Marines - very few, but very good at what they do The "Other" Players: Imp. Guard - not quite as good, and never recognized as how important they are (in both fluff terms and in the real world. Goddamn marine noobs!) Cheerleaders: the Imperial Citizens - because they can't fight. When it comes down to it, it makes you really think about how much a "lasgun" can kill people, and how much WS and BS 3 is a lot better than the untrained 1 or 2 that a civilian might have... Coach: Inquisition - bastards, who always get what they want, and when they don't get it (those rare cases) they punish someone who doesn't deserve it! Opposing Team: Chaos - these are the guys who at first start off winning one season, then they get squashed by the home team (marines and guard) and then they come back stronger than ever...and then get squashed again! The "Loser" Team: Eldar - they might have once been powerful and good, but as the years went on, the team just got worse and worse, until it wasn't even worth watching them play anymore (that is strictly fluff wise, mind you. Eldar are very good on the tabletop) The "New guy" Team: Tau - they are the team who utilizes all the stuff from the books. All the cheesy ideas that they can find (lol, like the greater f'ing good!) and they don't (or try not to) break any rules or protocal The Team that everyone is scared of: orks - they're crazy, the guys with all the team members who just got out of juvenial hall. yeah, that team!  |

You forgot the nids. They're like an unstoppable horde of 5th graders who rush onto the field and start biting the players. Oh, and some can fly. Woot! Go Astartes! Is it just me, or does the Imperial Guard seem like the Astartes' cheerleaders I always thought it was out job to stand in the path of bullets headed for the Space Marines. |

*And with a monstrous crack of lightning, the pitted landscape was for a second illuminated in an incandescent flash, the earth lit up in a ethereal, terrible whietness too pure to be living, empty. Darkness closes in again, but before her wings can spread, another shattering blow strikes the earth, another blinding eruption of elemental fury tears through the darkness, and keeps the earth in the too-bright twilight, save for the tall, malevolent shape that stands, starkly, horribly alone, where previously there was nothingness.*
I assure you, a commissar is the least of your worries. *And the hideous, deep-voiced roar of the thunder carries across the field, a concussion of indescribable force exploding in the atmosphere as the monster cocks it's head, and smiles*
