So the box has been seen for the forthcoming Magnus the Red model from GW. This will be the first time they have released a primarch for 40K since 2nd edition I believe, and they phased those models out long before 3rd edition. link I think the model looks fantastic and is very characterful and pretty much exactly what I had hoped. As a bonus there is nothing so 40K about it that you couldn't use it in a lot of fantasy setting including AoS. This will probably be the Daemon Prince for my Tzeentch forces there as well as Magnus for 40K.

Looks like a Brazillian Samba Dancer during Madigras!

The official Warhammer TV notice is actually very funny: link

It's looks horribe.

It is supposed to look horrible. It is a daemon prince, and not a Slaaneshi one. I guess they did a good job.

yeah not digging it. Might grow on me with better pictures but at the moment there seems to be to much going on, on that miniature, for my tastes.

Not how I pictured Him from all the books. Not even close to the book descriptions. Wings? Meh!

It looks like the Forge World Primarch models will be puny compared to that monstrosity.

"Not even close to the book descriptions. Wings? Meh!" The daemon prince Magnus has always had wings: Which book is he described in? The Forge World primarch should be significantly smaller than a daemon prince. Here are some attempts by people to convert him: link

Hmmm… time to do the Battle of the Fang? I got plenty of Space Wolves to throw in at him…

That is what it is coming out for. They are releasing a Battlezone: Fenris part II in Nov/Dec. They have Silver Tower's deep striking onto Fenris. It should be pretty cool. I can't wait until they preview the plastic Silver Tower model on Nov. 24.
