    Default Stormguard Rescuplt

    I don't know if I'm out of the loop or what but one interesting thing I noticed while at lock and load is they had a resculpt of the stormguard. They looked pretty nice. For whatever reason I didn't think to take a picture but if I find one I'll post it.

    If I recall correctly I heard one of them say it will be indeed redone in plastic, in one of the interviews. Could have been one of the Lost Hemisphere ones.

    I'm surprised they would do the Stormguards before they resculpt the Stormblades, unless the plan is to have base bodies for Stormguard/blades but have the capability to swap the swords or pikes out. Kinda along the same way as the Khador Man-o-War Shocktroopers/Bombadiers/Demolition Corp.

    Or there will be a storm blade UA in the next book, so they are expecting more people wanting to buy them.

    Though I hope both are true.

    Seriously, resculpts were there, yet not a single person has pictures and no one else has mentioned it as yet ?

    I hope they tone down the leaders weapon on the resculpts. It's a bit big even for heroic scale.

    My wife had the camera the entire time.
    There's Stormblades also on the way, and I spoke with Meg, who's the one painting them.

    They are much beefier, have nice shoulderpads, better looking weapons, and are just better looking overall.

    There's bound to be pics somewhere. I'll be buying a unit of each as soon as they release.

    Dang, I just got 2 units of stormblades and now I'ma want the new plastic ones for a 3rd unit what am I gonna need 3 units of stormblades for...
    On the plus side I've been putting off getting a 2nd unit of stormguard and now I feel better for having waited.

    Its strange that so many people took so many photos of everything......except the plastic Stormguard haha.

    I for one am glad. I've avoided the Stormguard because their models aren't to my liking, so at the very least the new ones would be easier to assemble...

    Did you see the new Blades Ghool... They were a great sculpt. I have two units of Blades currently fully maxed out. It will be difficult to not get a third unit now though. I also have 3 units of Guard and well... same thing there. The new armor is really well done. The shoulders have a nice curve the armor and the weapons look much better. I think Meg was about half done with the new Blades & the Guard were in the display case. The Guard are pictured in the Colossal book if anyone in your area happened to get one (group battle scene).

    I already have two max units of 'blades and two min units of 'guard. Still, if they look good enough I'll take the plunge. Again...

    Not bad at all. Kinda sucks that I just ordered my unit last week.

    There should be a witty signature here, but I couldn't think of anything.

    I was just about to start painting my storm blades. I have been waiting for 8 years for this re-sculpt (the storm blades). The Guard now look like they can actually hold their weapons.

    Wow, those look much better than the current sculpts. I finally finished painting and basing my Stormblades just this week too. Oh well, at least I waited on buying Stormguard, I love the new shoulder pads and those are neat poses.

    Well ... that's a reason to hold off on the second unit of both.

    Aww, those do look good. I already have two full units of each though, and they're all painted too. Doh.

    Great, and I just bought some nice painted ones from ebay, was wondering why they went cheap. Any idea when new Guard/Blades are released?

    If they're at this stage I'd like to believe we'd get them before the year is out.

    I had a feeling that PP would flesh out Colossals awesome (albeit small) offering with resculpts. I'm pulling for Haley1 to get the same treatment as Ashlynn.

    Those are much nicer, glad I ditched the old ones I had. I had been regretting that saw I saw Nemo3's tier.

    Can't wait to see the Stormblades now too.
