It's all about Chaos this weekend, with The Hotness and The Rage getting an update and some powerful figureheads. The almighty Slaanesh, She Who Thirsts, the Prince of Darkness and almost the only reason why GW have the colour pink in their paint range have their new Battletome, Hedonites of Slaanesh. which comes in Shimmery Satin Limited Edition and These PVC Pants Are Hot In Summer Standard Edition. Probably one of, if not THE best Slaaneshi miniature makes an appearance this week with the Lord of Hubris bringing a sense of style, panache and a very cool tactical rock to the battlefield. This is a really great mini, and manages to encapsulate so much about Slaanesh, from the sculpted body, to the exotic weapons, to the almost alien style headwear. This is a must and an amazing basis for kitbashing! WIth the Battletome we of course get the Hedonites of Slaanesh Warscroll Cards and Dice Set, plus the new Vanguard: Hedonites of Slaanesh which includes both the Blissbarb kits that are "No Longer Available" on the GW webstore.
Away from the excess and glory that is Slaanesh and over to a whole different sort of excess - this time an excess of violence and rage! Everyone's favourite skull-collecting red-boys and red-girls from Khorne are also getting their Battletome, with Blades of Khorne coming in Sticky Red Goodness Limited Edition and Spikes for Spike's Sake Standard Edition. Like Slaanesh, Khorne also have a new champion, with the Realmgore Ritualist rocking up. Personally not a fan of this mini at all. It seems thick and chunky, lacking the finer details found on the more recent Khorne miniatures. Too much and too little all at the same time! There are of course the Blades of Khorne Warscroll Cards and Dice Set, plus the new Vanguard: Blades of Khorne. It's interesting to look at this boxed set and see the change in GW's philosophy when it comes to proportions, with these minis seeming cartoonish - which even on release was a criticism we had.
In books this week it's just the one - Warboss for you Ork (and Goblin) fans!

Forge World have the first of their resin torso upgrade kits for the plastic Contemptor Dreadnought up this week. All reworkings or redesigns, these torsos are probably just the beginning of the relaunched accessories. In a way it's a pity these aren't plastic, but that's probably not practical.
This week we can get the excellent White Scars, Imperial Fists, Iron Warriors, Dark Angels, Sons of Horus and the Emperor's Children. The White Scars and the Dark Angels were probably the most recent ones made in the previous releases, so it's interesting to see them in the first wave this time.
