"Get a look at the GIANT new lavabeasts – the brand new Dwarf monster that was spotted in WD 102!
It looks like the White Dwarf was spotted in France, and is making the rounds already this morning…"

oh dear god what have they done to those dwarves :(

waaslandwarrior04 Jan 2016 2:48 p.m. PST

Is anyone actually spending money on this???
Knowing GW, it will not be cheap either.

Mark RedLinePS04 Jan 2016 2:56 p.m. PST

Horrendous.

moonfleetminis04 Jan 2016 4:54 p.m. PST

Love all the new models they are doing now, just not at those prices anymore :(

Mithmee04 Jan 2016 6:34 p.m. PST

Oh look all the Dwarves are Troll Slayers that look like they are totally naked.

Yup, GW has jumped the shark with AoS.

rxpjks104 Jan 2016 7:12 p.m. PST

$30 USD for one figure.

HUBCommish04 Jan 2016 9:47 p.m. PST

Those dwarf slayers are ridiculous and outlandish. They look cool as heck!

Garand04 Jan 2016 10:30 p.m. PST

Prices are absurd:

Fyreslayers Hearthguard (5 miniatures) – 33€ 25£ 40$

Fyreslayer Vulkite Berserkers (10 miniatures) – 45€ 35£ 60$

So that's $8 USD per figure for the first set, and $6 USD per figure for the second. And these are PLASTIC minis.

I was looking forward to this release. Finally, plastic slayers! Even if they did look wonky, buy a box and see if they grow on you. But not for those prices…

Seems not many fans here… (smile)

Actually from conversions that I have had with the owner of the local FLGS there are not many fans of AoS at all.

Oh and I bet this will show in GW earnings report later this year.

HUBCommish06 Jan 2016 2:39 a.m. PST

Sure, they're overpriced. But why would anyone ever pay GW's retail prices when the internet exists?

Garand06 Jan 2016 9:59 a.m. PST

Even at 20% off they're still too expensive for plastic figures! That's $6.40 USD or $4.80 USD per, in an army where I'd need like 40 figures (I still play 8th, no AoS nonsense for me…). I can buy Reaper metals for cheaper than that at a similar discount (even without a discount, and the GW stuff at 20%, the Reaper metals are still cheaper…).

Damon.

HUBCommish06 Jan 2016 8:22 p.m. PST

Wasn't aware Reaper makes metal dwarf slayers. I'd like to take a look a them, link please?

So basically a brunch of naked Dwarves.

Plus what is up with those Trojan type helmets?

These dwarves have jump the shark.

Iron Crane14 Jan 2016 6:41 p.m. PST

I got to see them assembled today. They aren't bad at all however I don't have time to start another army at the moment so these will have to wait awhile.

Barin118 Jan 2016 8:30 a.m. PST

Not sure about these…I have slayer army already, plus Avatars of War slayers.
may be they're supposed to look like Spartans, but why this lizard monster thingie in the army, especially for the army who's main point was monster slaying…
May purchase some for collection, but I guess it will be from ebay later on. Especially with our exchange rate at the moment ;)

noigrim18 Jan 2016 12:45 p.m. PST

monster slayer on monsters…

Mithmee19 Jan 2016 2:32 p.m. PST

but why this lizard monster thingie in the army

Simple large overprice model that GW can make for around $10 USD-$20 and then sell for over $100. USD

GW thinks bigger is better.

Axebreaker23 Jan 2016 2:50 p.m. PST

Ugliest Dwarves I've ever had the displeasure to look at.

Not a dwarf fan, but those helmets and weapons ace ACE.
