Default 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?

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.

Personally i think all the OOP models have more character and less "Cookie Cutter" feel.

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.

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.

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.
