Games Workshop has revealed some new miniatures to celebrate the release of a new book in the Warhammer 40,000 Black Library collection. Watchers Of The Throne: The Regent’s Shadow is coming out soon and supporting that we have some models of the main characters, Valerian & Aleya.

Valerian & Aleya - Warhammer 40K

The new models have been sculpted to reflect the two different characters and their role within the story. On the one side, you've got Valerian who is a 'younger' Adeptus Custodes member who is looking to prove himself in battle. On the other side of the coin, you've got Aleya who represents the old order and so is much more prim and proper. You can see the designer talking about the models below...

I quite like the models and although I do much prefer models with more dynamism they did put forth some neat reasonings as to why they are posed as they are. They do make for nice display models which are very close to their book-cover counterparts.

The Regents Shadow - Black Library

So, if you're looking to get yourself some of the characters from the pages of The Regent's Shadow then you can keep an eye out for them. They will be available at the Black Library Celebration in 2020 so watch out for them.

Are you a big fan of these books and the two characters they've immortalised in plastic?
