Title: A New Inquisitor Comes Forth
Post by: laucian_meliamne on January 29, 2018, 03:22:38 PM
Just announced today: everyone's favourite bald-headed inqisitor, Gregor Eisenhorn himself is getting a 28mm model on February 24 (https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/01/29/black-library-celebration-coming-soongw-homepage-post-3/).  The announcement says rules are included, which means this is (as far as I can tell) the first named Ordo Xenos inquisitor to get rules.

The model itself is a scaled-down version of the old 54mm Inquisitor-scale model with some small cosmetic changes, just like Captain Artemis from the Deathwatch.


PS: I checked the Armies of the Imperium, General 40k, and Rumours/Speculation boards and didn't see this posted anywhere else yet.  But in case I missed it elsewhere, sorry to the mods for the duplicate thread.

I'll probably buy this, even though I barely play. It is pretty cool!

I used to really like the Inquisitor articles that appeared in White Dwarf and always wanted Eisenhorn to be in 28mm just because the art looked so good. I might just have to buy this for old times sake and it looks just as good as the original art work.

I am so happy that they've made this model!
They have really done it justice as well, I am definitely going to try and pick this one up!

The model is certainly impressive and resembles the Inquisitor 54mm very well.  In view of the fact that the rules are included with the model, I would imagine that it's likely to be a limited edition release, which may well tempt me into picking one up.
