nice i want one
Those do not look like updated skeletons.
They aren't going to be, this will get Blood Bowl/Necromunda-tier support
You’re correct. There’s exactly two (2) models that have been made this side of the Trump administration in that box.
And they’re still gonna charge 4-500 dollars for it
It’s not even just that but given how GW does thier boxes, this box is at most 50% of a whole army points wise, likely lower.
And thank frick for that.
100% we'll be getting updated prices though
>And thank frick for that.
Go frick yourself. Those skeletons are a significant factor in why Tomb Kings sold like shit back in the day.
It's physically killing me that they didn't redo skellies, horsemen, archers or chariots. Tomb guard still look great tho. And then this is gonna sell like crap and GW is gonna do "guess we were right to cancel them originally" and still give no support
Exactly!
How could they take years to release and fail so miserably!?
Sweet Jesus buttfricking Christ in the palm holes. I owe 2018 myself a big thanks for converting a bunch out of those Deathrattle skellies back when they were still around.
I already have a TK battalion i bought for a bargain before morons scalped them.
I always wanted a Tomb King model though so i'll get one of them to lead the battalion.
Looks fake, but who knows, GW can milk their shills with everything.
>that'l be 700 dollars + tip
Are these old 6th ed skeletons? they looks goofy as frick.
Lets not forget the isle of blood box set with 2 armies was £65 in 2010
>goofy
That's not how you spell "S O V L".
>Are these old 6th ed skeletons
older, the main sprue is the old egneric skeletons from before they split undead into two factions, with upgrade sprues.
The horsemen and chariot look like they are on their original based. Skeleton is on a 25x25mm.
>you are now aware gw didn't bin all the old warhammer
>they sealed it away in an underground vault
They wouldn't throw out the injection molds if they weren't worn out. They likely ground up any old inventory to recycle the plastic, then reprinted when they decided to bring the models back.
The skeleton horse molds are from 1993. They were already fricked when Tomb Kings were released first time round.
>an underground vault
Like a... sarcophagus, perhaps?
More like a tomb.
I assume GW lords over said tomb
If GW released a dwarf box like this that was reasonably priced (they won't) I'd consider buying it.
They'd still throw in a big dumb setpiece model no one likes that floats the price by a hundred bucks tho.
They’re trying to court paypigs who have a passing familiarity with the phenomenon of oldhammer and feel left out of it because there isn’t something on the store shelf that they can buy to make them feel like part of that subculture.
>those mean, problematic oldhammer gatekeepers making you feel excluded?
>do you have a fear of missing out?
>well we here at gw stand with our allies and say warhammer is for everyone
>$500
Those skeletons are definitely lesbians or something
Where are people like you even made? At the mental illness factory?
>they are selling the product to people who will pay for it
Why do warhammer-haters keep repeating this genius level take? Fricking galactic brain level.
the self inflicted punishment for your own stupidity is that you will continue to buy gw products. Fine by me buddy
Is the woke lesbian tomb kings infantry with us in the room right now, anon?
keep buying gw gamelike products
The new TOW novel literally has a Horse Girl Dyke Patrol Squadron of bretonnian ladyknights, so the only one who looks ridiculous here is you still, in the year of our lord 2023, peddling this "you're mentally ill for noticing things" bullshit.
Why do you notice the political activism we shove down your throat and celebrate every hour! That's not even real you insecure chud!
>nervously ignore issue with shitty reddit joke
ngmi
>Those skeletons are definitely lesbians or something
*clack clack clack*
That's the sound of two fem-skeles engaging in tribadism, does this sound sexy to you?
That’s not even 93 models. You’re a fricking moron, Ben.
>Dragon
>On foot character
>2x20 warriors
>2x16 archers
>3 chariots
>8 archer cavalry
>8 cavalry
Looks like 93 to me.
That's an unusually large box. Intradesting.
Honestly this is exactly what I wanted. Re-release of the classic old minis with a few new stuff sprinkled in to fill the gaps. Just a shame they aren't doing my favourite old army which was a regular Necromancer army without the vampire guff.
>regular Necromancer army without the vampire guff
Never existed, fake grog.
it did you fricking homosexual it was a regular Undead army without taking a Vampire lord you stupid frick
Not only could you just take a necromancer lord and necromancer heroes with 0 vampires if you wanted to but the back of the 6th edition army book also had an alternate list for leaning even harder into that with cheaper chaff units, you fricking moron
Thanks for confirming once and for all that you're full of shit and a filthy secondary at best, now please leave the thread forever and have a nice day at your earliest convenience.
>been looking at 3rd party for TK alternatives
>GW coming out with a big box of old models for me to enjoy instead
yay
Now I just need to stock up on Lizardman bits to make my mesoamerican TK.
That's actually a really cool idea. I hope you post pics when you do it anon.
the old skellies are very expensive on ebay.
is gw gonna give us a load of oldhammer at shelf price? it could be good.
no im not a paypig
Yep.
Shelf price of $60.00-$80.00.
Does not sound realistic. It has significantly larger
contents than the last generation of army boxes for WHFB.
Oh. No that’s the price of each of the individual units of dudes in there. Except the dragon that’s probably 150
Some quick math shows that if this assumption is true. Than the lowest this Thing will go is 460, and that assumes every non-dragon unit is 60 (high chance the chariots or cav will be more), the foot king isn’t a separate kit from the dragon ( I think this is confirmed) and that the bundle discount is 20% off
>THIS LOOKS TACKY AS FRICK
why? why? I bet you'd never be happy. They went back to putting artwork on the cover, and clear model shots all over, and you are mad?
>no necropolis knights, sphynx or tomb guard
yawn
I paid about 150 eurodollar for this back in the day. I would consider 150 as a cheap price for that skellington box today
On one hand you'd expect the box to be equivalent to, say, HH starter set. But on the other, it's mainly old models. Realistically it should be cheaper, since there's no cost to cover (m)any new moulds, but realpolitikally G(je)W is going to bilk everything they can for it.
I imagine they'll make it a decent deal just to move the stock and give the impression of a sucessful launch
>This looks real, but also tacky as frick
Elaborate.
Paypigs will shill this, buy this, throw it in the closet on top of hundreds of other unopened boxes. In the meantime actual wargamers will keep playing games, including oldhammer, and avoiding new gw gamelike products like the plague
>actual oldhammer wargamers don't want old minis at cheaper prices than from eBay scalpers
wut?
I literally just clone hundreds of my old guys and there is nothing gw or you, gw’s paypig online golem division, can do about it. Stay mad
>Clone my old guys
I tried that once. Making the molds for whole minis out of that boiled meltable plastic stuff was a lot of work. Theyre more brittle, but I'm inclined to just print minis now.
Your hinky dinky yeeyee looking ass third party miniatures do not fit into warhammer fantasy and people laugh at you behind your back.
>people laugh at you for not paying woke GW insane price gouging and taking it up your ass to re-buy the same products over and over again
stockholm syndrome and the literal definition of cope, quite sad.
Proonter goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrr. (Every sculptor and their mother makes a set of akeletons).
There any sign of a Brett box yet? Common sense would dictate that there should be, but...
>Common sense
>GW
What's with the revisionism of people suddenly pretending to like the old TK skeletons
Because I wanted them back in the day, but as a poorgay babby, I couldn't afford to collect two armies, especially one that required so many dudes. Now that I'm a less poorgay manbabby, I can buy a TK army to use. I have looked into 3rd party skellies, but nothing so far has caught my fancy, especially for TK.
first showcase of TK was in WD using the new plastic Undead skeletons from the Undead army as Khemri skeletons
>Buy the same fricking shit again for the tenth time goy!
Ah the Blizzard Entertainment master strategy of nickle-and-diming paypiggies every few years by reselling them the same products until they are dead.
You love to see it.
Took then 5 years and they didnt resculpt Horses and infantry.
They were already terrible back then, look worse now.
A resculpt to let then in the same quality as Tomb Guards would have been a sweet spot bettwen old and new.
Really sad that there are no Vampire counts. But TK are my second favourite undead (lol)
their getting pity rules and much of the line is available for AOS so it shouldn't be hard to make a TOW Vampire Counts army they just won't get a army books for years if ever
i don't like the AoS minis though...
50% of them are from WFB though
this is the most shovelware tier product GW have ever come up with, the skeleton horses are some of the worst sculpts GW ever made and they're in two different fricking kits in that box
A lot of folks back then were turned off on Tks because of the terrible core troops.
Well done Gw!
all the stupid special models they added made Warhammer look like a toy line
To TK?
The models were awesome! Tomb Guard is great, the Stalkers/Necropolis and the Sphinx were amazing!
back in the day Warhammer armies were mostly ranks of troops and cavalry
Where the biggest model was a character on a dragon.
Thats what this box harkens back to.
Every army needs a guy on a dragon! But there was also a decent amount of cavalry (and who doesn't like squigs?)
Genuinely perplexed why they didn't do Vampires but hopefully they come later
>Sylvannia wasnt active then
but the other Vampires were, Vampires in Warhammer are Ancient and actually a schism from Tomb Kings.
they just got a refresh in AOS that's the reason Dark elves, Skaven(will get refresh soon) and Vampires are not getting army books
all they got to do is reuse the TK skeletons and plugin new Vampire models that are designed to fit in the Old World.
hoping as GW releases this it crashes the scalper market
>costs 500$
Anyway at what price is this going to be a day one buy for you?
NTA. Maybe $350, but not tomb kings. Wood elves.
skeleton kino is back on the menu
I thought there was no starter box.
only according to gw's moronic definition of starter box, which means 2 factions and a rulebook + accessories
It's even more ridiculously specific than that, apparently not even the big plastic Horus Heresy box counted as a "starter box".
