the magna grapple on the back is just a hull detail and not an actual working one....

i'm still a little disappointed by the model, even in real life, i think the wings should have ben further forward if nothing else. are all the thunderhawk parts on seperate sprues, if so there could still be truth in the thunderhawk rumours.

its massive in comparrsion to a DE transport and very hard to hide on the field of battle.

Hmmmm Im on the same thinking King. A thunderHawk plastic wood be a nice kit but wood be absolootly insane. Have you ever seen the forge world one in the flesh. Well thay done Bainblads ect so why the hell not. And the forge world Thunderhawks molds are geting a bit old naw. So maybe truth in the roomers. Games day this year might she light on this.

Well i built the forge world one and it wasent worth what it cost back in 2005. built it sold it and was a sod to build as it was worpt to hell and took ages to bend back. That was then so god nows wht it is like naw. Plastic is t way to be me thinks!

I was flicking through IA 2 the other day and noticed a reference and line drawing of a Thunderhawk Shuttle variant. I think it is a shame that they didn't chose that for the flyer. It would have made sense if they then wanted to produce the extra sprues for a full plastic thunderhawk.

Im thinking ther will be a few Forge World upgrades for this model like replacement side guns, Vectord engins ect. Well one wood hope. But I do belive thay will do the Hawk in plastic. Wood make sents as the forge world mold will go pop sooner or later.

Judging by a few different sites, April for Grey Knights sounds like it is still on.
Necrons have apparantly been pushed back a bit.
Now the question is will Dark Eldar 2nd wave release before or after Grey Knights?
