Look what's been floating around today, credited to Dakka: (http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/287011.page)

In particular, note the reference to the Nightspinner rules, and the painting of the Manticore front and center.

My only concern: how much will this White Dwarf be? Are they upping the price for this issue or will it be regular price?

(either way, of course, IT WILL BE MINE!) :)

I hope they don't up the price for this issue, they just had a price increase. Now I think very hard about whether I want to buy each and every WD.

Latest rumour is a Nightspinner/Fire prism kit and Plastic Support Weapon box for Eldar.

The cover does not look very typical WD. Especially the background ist very rough maybe photoshopped.

This really reminded me of the old days when white dwarf released new rules through the white dwarf.

Duke, you mean like our last Blood Angels codex? :-D

And to gwensdad... what, $9 US isn't enough for you to pay for it?

Yay Manticore, just hope its less than £30 or I might as well just shell out £42 for the FW version.

I think rumour had the manticore at the same price as the new demolisher & hellhound kits.

sooo $50 USD? Id pay that for a manticore but for some reason that seems redic for a hellhound. Glad I got the old ones b4 and won my 2 new ones :p

"Spearhead" releases are scheduled for June. As for the price being around $49.50 US, that should not be a surprise to anyone given all of the recent releases of similar models. All GW 40K tank models since the new Imperial Guard tank kit releases of last year have been $49.50 including the Demolisher, Hellhound, Baal Predator, and Basilisk kit.

No surprise, but still a load of crap, espeically given the lack of the accessory sprue. I still haven't bought any of the new kits at that price. (and don't plan too). Those tanks really should all be 40$, but I've got enough IG as it is.

No argument there, $49.50 per model is steep. Most of the kits at that price have been great though and they do appear to sell, especially the Demolisher and the new Baal Predator. When I want multiples of a kit that's at a quite high price like that I start looking at eBay or discount mail order places like The War Store.
