| They have to make a SW terminator sprue, the new dark angels one is pretty sweet(for our most disliked of brothers), im lookig forward to better wolf, rune, iron priests for one, the current models are ok but as for their codex profiles, theres much left to be desired. I realise that its an old codex and pre-new SM one. |

| wolves are way down the list sadly... i'd say blood angels have a much better chance of the '08 release than space wolves! overall the space wolves are still a very good army list - blood angels not so much anymore which is why they'll likely get the attention first! (and because their current codex is about 2-3 years older than the wolves 'dex )rest assured though that the wolves will eventually get a new upgrade sprue similar to the templars and soon to be released dark angels! (as in you'll get molded shoulder pads for both power armour & termie armour, extras like wolf tails and runic charms, new chest plates w/wolf iconography and vehicle replacement parts!) cheers!

| Conscript ![]() | ahm see but they have most of that already. rather than redoing a completely new double sprue, its better for G to just make a second one with the missing stuff (the shoulder pads, plasma gun, flamer, maybe termie chests, sculpted banner, vehicle bits) i mean they have most of what they need - heads, torsos, wolf fur talismans, power weapon, power axe, power fist, melta gun, backpack, banner pole, wolf pelt etc |

but as you've pointed out, the wolves probably won't need as much work as the other 3 big chapters as they already have an excelent kit right now!at most you'll see a bit of up-dating using the new digital scultping tech gw have started using for all their new kits, as they can get alot more fine detail into the bitz... cheers!

IIRC, the blood angel's furioso dread is all metal so i'd bet that if gw does create a new venerable dread, then it too will be metal... just my guess obviously! cheers!

Blog Entries: 1 | i for one hope feverently that they re-sculpt ragnar, ulric and njal. they are still awesome minis but look a bit dated 14 years after their release.
