Picturers of the new Thunder / Fenrisian wolves models!

Wolf Brothers!!! The rumors are true! We are getting new models! Someone woke up and realized that one of the most effective units in the Space Wolves arsenal does not have a model. I wish that the same person would have realized that Canis could use a makeover (because he looks like he took a heavy boot to the face and he rides some animal more resembling a giant hamster that a Thunderwolf) but thats for another time. So we are getting a bunch of exciting new models:
Thunderwolves (Plastic, 3 Models) – 43,00 EUR
Fenrisian Wolves (Plastic, 5 Models) – 19,50 EUR
Wolflord on a Thunderwolf (Plastic, 1 Model) – 33,00 EUR Arjac (Finecast, 1 Model) – 21,00 EUR

While I do not have pictures of Arjac, I do have some of the Thunderwolves and the Fenrisian wolves. ENJOY!!!!
Fenrisian Wolves models in the top picture. Two Fenrisian wolves accompany Canis in the bottom. I hope the Fenrisian wolves wont get hungry and eat Canis' hamster!


THUNDERWOLVES ARE GO! I like how Dynamic the Thunderwolves models are! I just wish Games workshop would have invested a bit more and made the riders models different in look than pretty much every other Space Wolves model... what happened to capes? or wolf pelts blowing in the wind? I guess the creativity stopped once they finished the Thunderwolves models. But those are sweet as can be!


These models are VERY exciting. I wish I had pictures of the new Arjac model to share as well.


I also read that additional models are going to be repackaged and released:

Space Wolves Cyberwolf New Resin
Ragnar Blackmane Repackaged Resin
Ulrik the Slayer Repackaged Resin
Njal Stormcaller Repackaged Resin
Space Wolves Iron Priest Repackaged Resin
Space Wolves Rune Priest in Terminator Armour Repackaged Resin
Space Wolves Rune Priest Repackaged Resin
Wolf Guard 1 Fig Clampack 3 Repackaged Resin
Wolf Guard with Wolf Claws Repackaged Resin
Lukas the Trickster Repackaged Resin
Bjorn the Fell-Handed Repackaged Resin

But still way too much coming out in Failcast. Arjac, Bjorn, Ulrik, WL on TW, GH with standard.

The plastics do look amazing though.

The big question is when. Personally, I think the Thunderwolves from www.mrdandy.com look much better, but I will still probably get the GW ones. I really would like to have seen new models for the special characters, and maybe bits to make my own Iron Priest and Wolf Priest. I just happy that Space Wolves are getting a second wave.

Looks like I'll have to buy some new TWC models now, as myMythicast ones will no longer be legal :(

Oh well, A box of Fen Wolves, a box of TWC, the Lord on TWC, and some RP Finecast models = a lot of $$ spent in March on updating my Wolves

Kind of a letdown, to be honest.

Resin lord?

Really do wish they weren't on such large bases. Cavalry on massive bases is just dumb given their speed, range, and now immense ability to give cover. Game changing, I'd say. Also, they are MUCH MUCH more resilient to the one thing that munches these guys: the large blast templates.

Whatever, I'll just convert my models with magnets onto large bases and maybe buy a few over time.

Resin... lord? and Bjorn? Super weak.

Noam...

You DO have a picture of Arjac... is the one who stands in front of the Hive Tyrant on this pic, a little down the way after the word Tiranidi (and below Lukas the Trickster)...

Talking bout Wolves... I do like the new wolf models!!!

Will be my new acquisition in March

Praise Russ!

I'm also a fan of the new GW wolves. I think they'll match my Paulson Games wolves pretty well (sorry guys, didn't like the Mr. Dandy set). Lots of dynamic poses going on, and the Fenrisian wolves are also pretty wicked looking.

Just when I thought I was done buying models for a little while, they've gotta go and update the 2 armies that I own...

I think i'm going to be running fenrisian wolves allot more now, just because they look so awsome :)

unfortunately it seems that GW can't just be awesome, they have to waste time and money converting ragnar and ulrik's woeful models into finecast, most rumors are putting them as "repackaged resin". On a positive note though, those wolves actually look like the horrifying beasts that only fenris could breed. And now no one will ever buy canis and his squirrel ever again.

Thank goodness that I already have all the models I want in metal rather than failcast.

That said, those thunderwolves look sweet.

Hello, i'm a fan of your blog and i just saw the new releases yesterday with a friend which is a GW manager. You've forgot one release which is a Grey Hunter with wolf standard in resin finecast (the standard looks like the standard of the Forge Wold SW Dreadnought.

I'm just glad they didn't turn out like the mr dandy wolves (sorry not a fan of the round cartoonyness of them).

These new ones look like they will have been worth the wait!

Finally! I've been hoping for these models for a long time now. But does anyone know when they are coming out? Apart from that the models look great.

They're due out on 3rd March, so preorders should go out tommorow.
