So first of the new releases is the Mechanicum Thallax Cohort! They are basically robots!! Well in appearance. In fact they have been modified heavily, and by modify, I mean bionics!! They kinda remind me of the Big Daddies from Bioshock, the Rivet Gun Big Daddy methinks. Personally, I think they look a tad odd, least I'm a righty, so I reckon their gun should be attached to the right arm... but that's biased talk.

Next on the release are the Legion MKIV Recon Squad. If you've been reading the White Dwarf, you would've seen one of these guys being made. Least the process. There's a whole host of doodads here and there. They really do look the part of a Scout/Recon Team. All that extra gear for working behind enemy lines, away from their own supply lines!!

I really love the look of these guys, especially their guns!! They are (if I remember correctly from the White Dwarf) actually Bolters that have been modified to act like Sniper Rifles. Think the Stalker Boltgun from the Space Marine game.

Looking at these models give me ideas for a heap of conversions!! If I could get my hands on the Red Scorpions with Veteran Sergeant Haas Upgrade Pack, then I could probably do a major conversion using ALL those spare/extra bags that come with the Space Marine Tactical Squad. Plus some plastic tubing... IT'LL BE BRILLIANT!!

Now who's next? Yes, the Iron Warriors and Imperial Fists favourite unit, the Legion Breacher Siege Squad. What a long name ay? These guys are basically a conversion on the Space Marine Boarding Assault Upgrade Pack. Least that's what it looked like from that WIP pic in one of the White Dwarfs.

No matter, they look awesome, specially those helmets!! They kinda feel like Tin Soldiers but better. MKIII are my favourite Space Marine armour, if you haven't noticed ;)

Now onto what was recently announced Monday (I think). The Legion MKIV Outrider Squadron. These guys look awesome!! Specifically their Bikes. Those Bikes look just awesome!! I have no idea how these cool bikes (that look practical) was reduced to some square block with wheels.

From what I can tell, these guys appear to use parts from the original Space Marine Bike just with extra smooth bits on em. I also love the weapon mountings (replacing those Twin-Linked Bolters for say a Plasma Gun).
