|  Eldar Striking Scorpions Which do you prefer, the old SS, or the new ones? I think the old ones look better aside from the Exarch, they look much better, and with the biting blade their awesome. Thoughts?, Opinions?, Beer?

Blog Entries: 5     | I've not seen the new ones in person, so I can't comment. But Striking Scorpions are my favorite Aspect, followed by Warp Spiders.

Blog Entries: 10 | Personally i think all the OOP models have more character and less "Cookie Cutter" feel.

Blog Entries: 1 | lol they look more like female body builders **shudders** i prefer the new models by and large. the level of detail in most of the new sculpts is simply staggering! i particularly like the latest eldar range. so i guess i'm voting for the new ones  oh...and i'll take a beer if there's any left. |

Blog Entries: 1 | The 3rd ed Scorps were awful I thought. New ones are nice - remind me of Predator. Most of the newer stuff is an improvement cept for the Banshees and lets not talk about the sex toy head shaped Reapers! So yeah I prefer the newer ones.

| Re: Eldar Striking Scorpions the new scorpions look ok, personally though, I prefer the ones from back in 2nd ed. They looked a lot nice, but were strangely a lot smaller. Of course the new exarch looks great! I converted him to carry both specialist weapons. |

| Re: Eldar Striking Scorpions personally i like the newer ones i have seen 2nd and 3rd editon ad definitely think that the new ones look abit cooler and the old ones, in my opinion, looked a little comical
