Guess we'll be seeing him this weekend at the Heresy Weekender....

Knew they had to be holding something awesome back

[energongoodie]

It's only a sneak pic but I like it.
I know the knight is big but I just don't think I can drop £170 on it.

[DrLove42]

£170 is near "real" titan money. A Revenant only costs £195, and thats all Resin, whereas this is going to be a lot of plastic bits

[silashand]

Yeah, I might be passing on the knight unfortunately. No way it's worth that with the amount of plastic bits it will be using... :(

[Tyrendian]

yeah I definitely won't be spending that kind of money on it... sorry FW I was very interested but that is definitely too much! double the regular (steep) price?

[kharne690]

Forget the titan, Mortarion is the last model I need to complete my all terminator death guard force!!!

[Houghten]

...what plastic bits are these on the Titan? Far as I can tell it's different all over.

Plastic is lower legs, armour plates, arms, main part of torso.

Caraspace, Head, guns, chest armour and upper legs are resin

[Houghten]

Those lower legs look rather too elongated to be from the plastic kit to me... don't know which armour plates you're referring to either.

[DrLove42]

Shoulders, knees, shins...

Pretty sure the Knight Lancer is entirely resin. Aside from the last time we saw pictures of it appearing to be entirely resin, all of the visible parts you're claiming are plastic bits are all very clearly different from the parts in the GW knight titan kit. The legs, both upper and lower, are longer, shin and knee plates are similarly clearly taller, the chest armor plate is a totally different piece.

You might be right about the 'pelvis' being plastic, but this should make it pretty clear that the torso 'skeleton' is also a totally different thing from what's in the plastic kit.

Compare that with the 360 view of the plastic kit (http://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Imperial-Knight) and tell me again which parts are plastic?

[DrLove42]

No, you are right, i retract my statement based on that image, it is at least 80% resin.

I still stand on the basis of it being overpriced

And I'll agree with you on that. I'm not sold on the lankiness of it either, while I liked the stocky appearance of the Errant/Paladin kit.

[Archon]

I´am not impressed. Okay the lancer is big and all but i don´t like the modern looking shield on the ancient machine. Speaking of machines, the AM Tank look like fantasy and not very much sci fi - be it gothic or not. And from the sneakpeak of mortarion, hmm, he has a hood ...


And what i realy want to see is: A subjugator

I think the only potentially plastic parts are the shoulder joints and the hips, but at that point FW would be smarter to make them in resin than toss in 1-2 sprues from the Knight kit for the sake of 5 pieces.

I would like to see it lower priced, but it is quite a bit taller than the Paladin/Errant, and while the Revenant is taller than this (and more powerful ruleswise) the Lancer looks to have at least as many if not more and more detailed parts than the revenant.

I plan to get one, and use this guy as the Baron.

[Mr Mystery]

That Knight....

I like it, but I don't like it. It looks cool, but it also looks daft.

Most perplexing.
