theres a cpl more pictures in small format on the "whats new today" link above

And a neat rules info on Lelith Hesperax from the same article :)

Lelith Hesperax is the ideal accompaniment to your Wych squads and she really is a walking weapon. With Weapon Skill 9 and 4 Attacks that ignore armour saves, plus an extra one for each point her Weapon Skill is higher than her foe's, Lelith can murder entire squads.

The Ravager looks really good. The only bit I would have to modify is bulking up the bit where the sponsons attach to the hull so that it looks like there's some kind of rotating mechanism in there.

The figs look awesome.

The attention to detail is what blows me away... case in point - the chain holding the rider to the Hellion Sky Board is just amazingly spot on.

Hey, I just noticed the kroot skull on the ravager's totem pole. That is hilarious! Maybe they hand them out at the Commorragh Jack-in-the-Boxes.

And in the codex cover, on top of the leader trophy hat, there is a Vespid skull. So TAU empire will be a preferred enemy???
Nah, just joking.

lol, so they're countered as soon as somebody sees them?

They do look pretty badass, though!

Maybe in the 'updated' DE fluff, they are in some sort of full out war with the Tau Empire?\

That would be SO awesome!!

They probably gave Farsight his chaos-blade-thingie just for kicks

I checked out the new DE Codex tonight. Terrific stuff. Like all the newer Codex books there are many entries in it that have no models yet and that won't have models for a while. Example, Archons can have a retinue of 4 different types of crazy monsters! It's a converters dream come true.

I built the Reaver Jetbike models for my local store tonight. They go together easy and have lots of optional bits on the sprue. And check out the new flying stems, they have a small ball molded on top instead of that fragile little pin. So, they not only are less fragile but allow for dynamic tilting of the Reavers on top of them. No need to scrounge the old add-on two piece ball and socket bit to add to the top of the stem.

The ravagers and raiders look great, but let me tell you I am very concerned about those chains hanging below the jets. I am guessing these are representing the "slave snares" type upgrade so we can choose to leave them off. They look wonderful, but dear god that would be a pain in the *** to transport.

I think I`ll be spending almost as much on new carry bags and cases as I will on the army : /

Yeah can agree with that! I already need to pick up a double case for my tanks, and another just for my bikes... and mabey a regular case for my troops... but then if I want to alternate wych and kalabite then i'll need a 3rd large.... eep... my wallet hurts...
