Hmm... I like the throne, but I don't know if I love the figure(s). The seated pose looks awkward from the photo angle. The staff designs are cool.Plastic Tetto'ekko:

Not a huge fan of the revealed rule. Once per battle and a roll? That means you have to keep this model alive to at least round 3 AND have enough units left on which to use this ability. I wonder if GW is taking away Seraphon's extra command point generation?I like that the skink itself is a bit more active, scrying in his little orb. The big circular thing is a bit much though.
The newly teased rule:
On the bright side; finally an actually new rule. Only took them 3 units.
On the down side; not a fan of once-per-game rules, they tend to eat up too much of a unit's power budget and tend to make it feel lackluster outside of that one rule.
Also, it seems oddly weak for a once-per-battle ability. It's only a 5+ ward and it isn't even a guaranteed effect. The astrolith is a 6+ and permanent, this doesn't seem that much better, even if it can buff someone on the other side of the battlefield.
Yes, that's a good point. It could be anywhere. Plus, it could be a Slann, or a unit of Saurus/Skinks, or a Bastiladon... of all of them.
"Waxy" is a word, but it doesn't reveal much.
Not my cup of tea, the Failcast sculpt is much better in my opinion. The standing pose on the new model looks awkward and the new sitting pose is even worse. Looks like the skink is sitting on the toilet looking at his
They're probably still coming... save the better stuff for last.
Great minds think alike!i was thinking the same
That's about the only sort of impressive thing about the ability.
Kroxigor are listed as "sold out online", and we seem to be replacing all finecast, so I would assume we get those as well, alongside new stuff for all the finecast.
I think that might mostly just be the angle of the pictures.
No, its something particular to this new sculpt. There is just something about it. Maybe its the hunched over position. Maybe its the way he is looking at his orb. Maybe it is the positioning of his legs. Likely it is a combination of things, but it is undeniably (and uniquely) there.
It would make a great conversion piece. I can already see the green stuff sculpted toilet paper roll and everything!

I meant that this particular pose, and similar poses, used to be pretty normal, before phones where a thing.
I'm not arguing intention, I'm arguing end result. Obviously the sculpter didn't purposely sculpt the new Tetto model with the intention of making it look like it was sitting on the toilet, but unfortunately that's how it turned out.I meant that this particular pose, and similar poses, used to be pretty normal, before phones where a thing.
I get where you're coming from, but I assume that the sculptor doesn't associate the pose with phones and toilets and was thinking more of something like this statue. Just different associations with the pose.
