Speculation Runs High on This Week's Releases


There are a lot of people hanging on the edges of their seat this week, just waiting for a release list to hit for this coming weekend. There has been the odd sighting here and there, but nothing solid as of yet. There seems to be a couple different theories on what is going to happen.


This is all just conjecture and pieces of information being put together. Hopefully very soon we will have something a little more solid to go off of.

Vehicles and Jetbikes
Starweaver as a dedicated Transport for 5 Harlequins
Skyweaver as a Harlequin Jetbikes
a third possible Heavy Weapon Variant to the Starweaver that may not have a transport option.

Some are claiming that they can see a lance weapon on the vehicle silhouettes, which looks reasonable if there is a second rider on the back of the vehicle/jetbike.

A Second Box Set
It is said on the Games Workshop website -
"all of the components in this kit are fully interchangeable with the other Harlequin plastic kits."
This highly suggests that another plastic box kit may be on its way. We have not yet had any real information on it yet though.

Shadowseers and Death Jesters
In the White Dwarf in the Codex. Apocyrpha, Shadowseers and Death Jesters are mentioned and what they add to the Harlequin Troupe.

The Shadowseer and Death Jester are currently temporarily out of stock on the GW webstore. It seems most likely that these will get released in a plastic version of their current form, if not a new model.

Harlequin Codex
We know its coming, and we have most likely seen the cover art from the Harlequin video. The question is whether it will come this week or next. My guess of course is that it will come this week.
