Accutally I was speaking with a guy at Ottawas Bayshores GW today and he assured me that the suits were gonna be pewter. But if somebody wants to show us some spures for em I'll eat some smokled oysters xd

I was hoping they'd be plastics but I suppose it makes sense for them to be pewter. That way they can screw me out of more of my hard-earned money.

And the creators of Games Workshop said "Lest all the coolest models will be first be made of Pweter to fill our coffers, then we will make the models look cooler and switch them to plastic filling our coffers faster" page 108 of the GW owners manual 3nodding

I've always assumed that rare/powerful/new models would be metal, and then when they're popular, or need more customisation, they get made into plastic.

Space Marine Force Commander, I think is a good example.

Im still waiting to see some spures so I'll know. The Giant is in spures, the new dwarfs are in spures, the Crisis suits are possible thus they will probly be in plastic but what about the stealth suits

Well, considering that those every rumor I've heard except yours puts the new Stealths as being plastic, my bet is that you'll be eating those smokled oysters. (no offense, but the redshirts on the floor generally know diddly about new releases except the date they're arriving instore.) The question is, will they put three plastics in a box, forcing you to buy two boxes to max out a single SS squad, or will they put the full six? Or will they do a "12 hotdogs-8 buns" bit and package an odd number like 4?

I dare them to put them 2 to a box.

Yes, but the Plastic is more versatile. And probably cheaper.

Nope. The CSM(metal) and the SM(plastic) termi packs cost the same 3nodding
