I found this on the GW website, are these the shields that are coming out in January or are they old stuff, it says they are from bitz packs but they werent in DE bitz either. Can anyone shed some light on this?

grargh!!!
My harpies are Skinks who have greenstuffed wings instead of arms and slight modifications brought about with a modelling knife. Cheap enough for about 20 of 'em
Now, plastic Dark Riders on the other hand...

The new shields look great, and I can not wait to get my hands on some or more.
But I would like to see a new Malekith model, as well as the other special characers.
And I would not boo hiss, about some plastic Daek Rider ever.
But it is good to see more stuff coming our way.
I hope they just keep it up.

Actually I need shields
But I would probably be more exited about harpies or DR though
But this is still better then nothing! It's better that they take time to make something small, rather then not making anything at all...

Well, as Borog said, it is better that they produce something then nothing at all, though I don't need new shields as I've my own the design (freehand). And who knoiws, they might re do Malekith and the Dark Riders some day.

I don't udnerstand why. The current shileds looks nice.
and I seriously can't agree on the squid thing. Squid is FTL in my opinion.
That being said, I don't like the new corsair models
Then again I have 36 good old metal ones

The White Dwarf note I remember said they will come 10 for $10 and you choose which design you want. I kinda like the Kraken one myself.

not only will they be expensive an extra $20 or whatever on top of the price of a warrior box (or 2 if wanting x20), but wont easily attach to the model like the plastic shields would. they will be a heavy part of the model which means if you have to handle the minis a lot you have more chance of breakage. and bugger pinning them it would take ages. i would personally buy 1 set of each and mould and make just the symbols out of plaster and throw them onto plastic shields. yes they look cool but at $1 each (more for some other countries like us in OZ) no way!!! not practical enough for me
