Wraithguard/Wraithblades: I've never been the biggest fan of the wraithguard, I felt the models looked too slow and cumbersome even for what are supposed to be slow and cumbersome troops by eldar standards. They needed an update. What they got was a superbly executed plastic revamp. The new weapon options is lovely even if not radically different looking and the Wraithblades are amazing. Very intimidating.
Hemlock Wraithfighter/Nightshade Bomber: I love the fighter, it looks so sleek and hunter-like. Also vaguely duck like I admit, I like ducks. The bomber is very sturdy and scary looking. Very elegant flyers, perhaps not as outstanding as the FW Phoenix but better than the Nightwing. I do think the Razorwing may still be in first place on my list.
Illic Wossname: Very impressive.
Spiritseer: Ah. Well. Very nice, nothing outstanding. Slightly disappointed really, it's not quite as outlandish as the old ghosthelm Farseer model but not as imposing as the new plastic Farseer.
Plastic Farseer: Very nice, but in my opinion a missed opportunity. A plastic copy of an existing Farseer basically, when we could have had something different. Like a female Farseer.
A fantastic release, eclipsing in my estimation even the Vampire Counts release and equalling the Dark Eldar release in quality if not quantity.
