New Leman Russ kit is indeed confirmed to have all four remaining weapon options. Only downside is that you cannot swap the main weapons as with the Demolisher kit. http://www.warseer.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=88746&d=1273307412Kit comes with the bare basics such as sponson and hull weapons, a commander with one head option and a search light. All other upgrades are not included as with the Demolisher. All we need now is a pic of the Manticore sprues and model.

I might just get one so I can field me another Exterminator, though a Vanquisher with the new turret design is a tempting image.

Well, all the sponson options are in place, and Vanquisher with MM sponsons and hull lascanon is one badass tank killer, especially if Pask is onboaard...

I'd be a whole lot happier with Pask if I could pop that ******** into a Baneblade for Apocalypse.

I take pask and park him in a build with good cover and lines of fire then take camo netting. And have him sit static the whole game

You do know that the Punisher and Executioner were released last year right? As part of the Demolisher kit.

It's been a while since I've been giddy over a GW release. I'm getting one of each kit along with a Pask for the Vanquisher. Pask does have a rather grotesque hand.
I guess this means that when the plastic storm troopers are being released we'll be seeing a blister with Bastonne.

Plastic Rough Riders might get a Kamir mini? What about Sly Marbo though? The current model isn't exactly cutting edge any more.
How about.. another regiment in plastic? GW has already shown that it doesn't take all that much to make one these days, just three boxed sets with the basics: HQ, infantry squad and a heavy weapons squad.

We're still waiting for plastic Valhallans a.k.a. greatcoats to pop up. But yes, cranking out a new regiment every other year shouldn't be that hard, just provide us with the three basic kits and maybe some metals to go with them and you're set. Plastic Mordians could easily be turned into Praetorians with a little help from an after-market company that has pith helmet heads.
Valhallans, Tallarn and the Mordians really do deserve a come back.
While we're at it, we also still need revisions for the Rough Riders, plastic storm troopers, Griffon and dare I say, new priests. The current models offered are pretty old by today's standards, with their clubs and silly hairstyles. I'd much rather like to see some more militant priests, a bit like the good old Missionary with the bandana.

id appreciate plastic vostroyans, if only for the convertability of them. the ornate armour could be used for all manner of Terran characters, rogue traders, inquisitors, diplomats and other models.
also, i think Stormtroopers should be a conversion kit. we already have cadian/catachan plastics, so why not just provide parts to improve and convert them, like heads, knee/elbow pads that are attached like the Cadian Command Squad gas masks, hellguns, etc
would be a cheaper set, easier to produce, and would allow for both custom cadian and catachan based stormtroopers, complementing GW's entire plastic IG range
