He just doesnt look good enough. Not special enough, the helmet has changed slightly and looks way less intimidating and sinister, and the posing is pretty lame compared to before

He just doesnt look good enough.
Its just a generic hero pose from AoS. They do this constantly. You can likely find the wireframe base the features were pasted over if you went through their catalogue.
>Its just a generic hero pose from AoS
Yeah, no one ever pointed with a sword in 40k.
Age of SUCKmore amirite gang!?
Yeah but it doesn't really fit the ambush happy Striking Scorpions as well as the Hunch does.
Oh calm your breasts, they look fine.
the literal ONLY reason to buy and paint and display and play with these miniatures is if you find them appealing. I think they made the helmet look less intimidating and the pose/claw isn't as strong. Waste of an update, just pose the damn model, and why even change the helmet at all
Look, bro. You've been given two options. Just buy the old mini or commit suicide. Someone even gave you a step by step on how to have a nice day. I don't know what else you want. You wanted options, you got options.
I already own 15 of the old once dunce, I've always said they were the last of the finecast aspects that needed an update to. If gw wanted to update them at least do something with them.
Boring as frick, and originally one of the more out there weird eldar units
THEN WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THE THREAD, moron? /tg/ isn't your fricking green soldier man therapy circle. We aren't here to fricking hold your hand, you fricking homesick abortion.
/tg/ is absolutely more a place to rage about inconsequential but still awful decisions made by tabletop companies than it is a mindless corporate bootlick echo chamber, GTFO
moronic cope, sorry its not YOUR echo chamber homosexual, we can hate stupid consoomers who are coming to vent about being forced at gunpoint by daddy gee dubs to replace their beloved miniatures for these abominations and the company all the same
>inconsequential but still awful decisions
So eldar players DONT want their 20 year old crap replaced, got it.
I am completely fine with the new Scorpions. Op is a fricking subhuman moron that is b***hing about nothing. I only ever got 5 of the original metal ones before GW went with the fineshit resin crap so I have been languishing for well over a decade for plastic aspect warriors and all of them have thus far been good or adequate enough. Even the b***hing about Dark Reapers imo was fricking moronic, they are fine.
b-b-but the h-h-helmet is slightly different.
you just have no taste bro, you shouldnt moan about people who actually have taste and opinions
>woah its in plastic 11/10 gw let me suck it
Not an argument, moron.
FRICK YOU OK FRICK ALL OF YOU I JUST CAME HERE TO VENT ABOUT MY TOYS AND YOU ALL RUINED MY THREAD AND GALLED ME GAY! I HOPE YOU ARE SOOOO PROUD OF YOURSELVES!
why not anon? because it shows you up
It isn't possible to show anyone up on an anonymous imageboard, dipshit.
don't lump me in with anyone whining about the new plastic scorpions, they look great
>I own the old models
>I have no intention to buy the new models
>I will whine endlessly about the new models
Have you ever thought about why you ended up this way?
His father wasn't man enough to kick him out of the house at 18.
>intimidating
homie they are elves in green and yellow with spandex and armor.plates
they already arent intimidating
The absolute state of elf players, their typical intimidation face sans magic
if you cant see the difference in "facial" structure of the 2 helmets you have severe autism
>grrrrr im scary now but the same thing on the inside
in both cases under the mask is still a baby face Feminie elf.
Honestly what is even this supposed to be? Yes yes soul 1 color + shade head but what the frick is making the GRRR mouth? Is that the same material lining the back of their heads?
its a grill. that paintjob doesnt show it well
Well, sad that the fun face and oversized gem eyes are gone but I guess everything has to be tidied up for new aesthetic, I would say its an alright approximation although I do concede the grill + eye mask visor is indeed different than the new sharpeyed mouthbreather with chin strap
sooner or later we're just going to see skulls molded directly into cars' frames
Oh yes, because getting completely bent out of shape by minor changes to plastic toy soldiers isn't a sign of severe autism.
Why the FRICK are you on /tg/ if you don't care about the details on your miniatures. Seriously, not caring is the bigger aspie move.
You caring I care this much supports that. The helmet looks less intimidating. It's basically fact.
I care, you don't. Okay?
You are a huge queer.
Consider this anon's
advice.
... so buy the old ones?
Artelw eldar aspect warriors look far better than all of gws remakes. They all just look so boring. If your going to remake the models 1 for 1 atleast make interesting options or poses. These have neither, what exactly was the point.
Why not have a suicide over it. Though the temptation is to be elaborate, it is super easy. Just take two plastic grocery bags, nest them into each other so you have a double layer, put them over your head and tie the handles together around your neck to form a basic seal. Then just breath deal and slip into unconsciousness.
Just think, you would never be bothered by the slight differences in a green soldier man helmet again.
>and looks way less intimidating and sinister
Ooohh, I'm so scared by these toy soldiers, oooh
It's a squad leader. He just needs a slightly different helmet and a different weapon, and he just that.
A more valid criticism is that they made his claw look nonsensical. Why is the big part of the pincer facing the wrong way?
Are those hazard stripes on his sword? Feels kind of out of place on an eldar.
Oh look another "old model bad new model good" thread that escaped the general.
>the posing is pretty lame
It's plastic, pose it differently, moron.
>The pincer's main and "Thumb" section seem to not be directly opposed anymore and look more like a mitten than a Scorpion pincer.
I hate this. BUT the wrist gun attached at least looks better.
>The top of the Chainsword is too industrial and not arty enough.
I dislike this but don't hate it
>Cheek guns are a little smaller.
I dislike this
>The brow no longer juts out like a Neanderthal or erectus
I dislike this
>The "hair" is less "Yes this is The Predator"
Totally neutral.
Alo it may be losing the little side vents on the legs but I can't be sure at this angle
Just convert it to look like the old one. Maybe one arm cut.
the new scorpions looks so fricking good
the new scorpions look so fricking bad
They look the exact same.
If I have any issue with the new striking scorpions is that they didn't improve the design.
Oh shut the frick up you mewling c**t.
