Any chance of a new Creed and Kell model? Or any of the new special characters for all that?

I don't believe a new creed or kell model... but maybe new ones of the old spec chars. (not any in the previous 'dex, Creed/Kell, or Yarrick.) prolly new Marbo, Vet Sgt.s, tank cmmnder, and the like.

aggreed. I doubt that the ones that we already have a model for will not be changed. but we should be getting new stuff for the new guys though. expect it to be a bit slow though

The old Straken mini is awesome. Actually I think he is one of the best IG minis ever. A new Marbo would perhaps work as he looks really clumsy

Awww. I would have loved a new Creed and Kell. Maybe in the pose and position that they are in, in the picture under their profile! Charging forward!

I made a conversion of them doing just that. I need to start fielding them though. And actually it makes more sense to take Kell and Straken now if you don't have a mass horde army.
Actually a command squad with straken, kell, and nork would be unstoppable.

I kinda like Creed and Kell as they are. I need to do a touchup on mine since it's looking likely that I'll actually play them now. Glory for Cadia and all that whatnot.

I feel bad for Kell. All that second hand smoke is going to kill him one of these days.

I thought there was a different Rambo model, where he's pointing his gun? Am I hallucinating (again)? The Straken model would be great if he wasn't holding his shotgun over his head like some kung-fu doofus with a katana. I can almost see "HI-YAA" painted on the base... Other than that the bionics look really good, very beefy and intimidating to mach his profile.

Ah, I'd rather make my own special characters, I'm not too fond of the GW ones.
My Sly Marbo is gonna be Solid Snake...

Some of the GW special characters do need an update, because while I do enjoy making my own characters, sometimes getting the right pieces doesn't always work out.
With that said, I don't think Creed needs a new mini right now. He looks pretty good the way he is, and is still relatively new (compared to the likes of Straken...)

I wanted to make my own Marbo and was gonna make Snake, but ended up making Sam Fisher. Got a shabby picture in my thread, but it looks very nice in person. I think I may have to do a cardboard box with legs now though...

Frankly all of the GW special characters are "interchangeable" with your own regiment's eg heroic leader (creed) or stealthy backstabber (marbo) so you just use a suitable model call it by a different name to suit your regiment and count it as the SC in hand. GW proved this was perfectly acceptable with the SM special characters, who are almost all Ulrasmurf, but they said that it was logical that other chapters had legendary tank commanders, veteran scouts and heroic captains.

They also specifically state that proxying different models to represent special characters is acceptable as long as your opponent knows who each one is supposed to represent.
New Guard codex, pg. 89.
