The Sands are Stirring… beware the Tomb Kings!
April 5, 2011 by beerogre
So guys, here are some of the leaked pictures of the new Tomb Kings models from Games Workshop!
What do you think?
When we get more information, we'll be sure to tell you.

Tomb Guard looks like Maya or Inca
They are based around ancient egyptians. And that Sphinx almost makes me want to start warhammer again. Almost.
Blue/black bones. I am confsed.
Anyway those do look like some lovely GW sculpts that I may have to aquire.
Blue bones based no doubt on lapis lazuli and gold.
It’ll be green marble that it’s meant to be – i suspect. Animated statues rather than reanimated bones.
Yep agreed.
The sphinx and stalkers are just beautiful.
Very interesting. Nice models though once again another BIG model for an army lol.
Tomb Guard look the best of the lot, nice look about them.
beautiful!!! now I’m really going to collect tombstalkers. I hope most of them a are plastic but I think they’ll be metal, except the troops then.
Everyone gets a howdah nowadays. 😀
@gowiththeflow: Necropolis Knights and Sepulchral Stalkers are in the same box… Both Sphinx’ too (all multiple plastic kits)
Howdah do everyone!
Not overly keen on the stance of the sabre toothed thingy.
Overall looks like they will be very well received sculpts.
They will look great painted up on the table.
Ohh Shiney! Now i might have to actually start Warhammer Fantasy or a Thousand Sons Army.
Y’know, as gorgeous as these models are, I’m a little disappointed by the lack of a Colossal Sphinx akin to the Warmaster model (it’d be Mumak-sized in WFB). Not sure I like the “animated statue” aesthetic of these sphinx, I prefer the idea of them being actual creatures roaming the desert.
Necropolis Knights & Sepulchral Stalkers look like they’re going to be a two-in-one plastic box – just look at the parts. I hope they don’t replace the Ushabiti in the range though, they’re my favourite WFB models =/
Also also also, where is the much hoped for plastic bone giant!?!
I think they look great and i am excited to dust off my Tomb King army!
Its its I got nothing to cool
Dammit! Now I’m doomed, there’s no way I can resist those beautiful models of epicness (sigh) and I had so hoped to resist a tomb Kings army, not gonna happen now.
The humanoid war sphinx is fantastic. Very impressive model. The tomb guard and sepulchural stalkers look great also. Not impressed at all with the cobra riding knights. They look totally stupid. The other sphinx model and tomb king model? Meh.
omg omg omg omg omg!!!!!!!! they look soooooo epic i have waited ages for the new ones to come out and they were no wher near my expectations i cant wait to see the new rules
i officially require this army!!!!!
wohooo nice love it can’t weit on that humanoid war sphinx it’s just fantastic but what’s up with the other sphinx ? seams like an egyptian stegadon not too good. And those stalkers are really nice too
Love Tomb Kings, I hope that they keep the Ushabti. They would complement the models above beautifully.
Granted, those are some nice models for the Tomb King. Overall there seems to be a tendency towards a gigantic beast in every army. Ok, Orks & Goblins and Tomb Kings always had their giants, but come on… Arachnarok Spiders? Those Sphinxes? That’s a whole new class of “big”! It really makes me wonder what will happen to other armies, such as Bretonnians, Wood Elves or High Elves, that have nerver been very famous for big beasty things. Except ridden dragons, perhaps, but come on! Even if, let’s say the High Elves would get something like an unridden dragen, wouldn’t… Read more »
That Sphinx makes up for me being over all dissapointed in the Grey Knights, Just when I start to doubt GW they do something awesome like this
These look really awesome, perhaps enough to make me start playing fantasy
Some of the rules for these guys are just brill, cant wait till we get our new book! seeing it friday woot woot
Im generaly impressed with the models. much needed variety. want to see the stats for them all. have been planning on starting a tomb kings army for some time but put it of waiting to see the new releases. Happy so far. 🙂
Could I just ask for plastic Greater Daemons?
These models are beautiful, no question, but with the Arachnarok, that Sphinx up there…. come on! They can obviously produce low volume kit at exquisite quality and a Thirster on a Dreadknight/flying base? Oooh, I might need a change of underwear.
