Some new models for Rohan and Isengard (and Mordor) are now up for advance order:

Eomer, Marshal of the Riddermark:



Grimbold:



Grimbold's Helmingas Command:



Saruman on Horseback:



Thrydan Wolfsbane:



And the plastic Winged Nazgul we've been speculating about:



All can be found HERE

Discuss!

I quite like the look of Eomer, although he doesn't quite look like the film's version, but he'd make an excellent King of Rohan for a Rohan army from a period other than WotR.

Grimbold and his men look quite nice, although the standard bearer looks a little bit hunchbacked, but for the standard warriors I'd like to see a mix of scale armour and leather rather than all scale armoured.

Don't like Saruman - his right arm looks twisted and I'm not too keen on his face :/

Thrydan actually looks quite nice for a purely GW invention, although his axe head looks a bit undersized (odd considering GW's like for oversized weapons).

Now that we can see the whole thing, the plastic fell beast doesn't look all that bad if you ask me, although I'm not too sure about the wraith on top :/

Lol, I thought the same thing about the Helmingas and Thyrdan's axes...they look rather small, quite the opposite of what we normally see...good job GW

Aye, the Fellbeast looks really good too...I think I'll pick up at least 1 for my various armies

I'm actually worried that Thyrdan's axe blades may be too small, although it could just be the angle it's at, and it'd be easy enough to swap with a normal armourd Dunlending's axe if it is.

Emomer is meh and i think Grimbold looks a little too "normal captain" which is funny as i thoguth the Captain of Gondor looked a little too name hero like.
The grimbold command look ok and Saruman tho good to have the modal does look kind of like he is high on canabis.

However Thrydan and the Fellbest look awsume!!! they realy are fantastic. I'm so getting Thrydan but maybe not the fellbeast but only becuase i have a metal one plus the witchking on 1 too.

The only model I don't like here is Saruman, the rest are amazing, especially for GW LOTR releases as of recent.

The fellbeast is fantastic, much better than the original!

got to agree there. I just hope that you can convert the fellbeast somewhat atleast so you have 2 diffrent tails, heads etc as well as optinal breat plates and helmets for it to make it a armoured or horned fellbeast.

Games Workshop says:

This box set contains one multi-part plastic Winged Nazgûl. This 31-piece kit can be assembled as either a Ringwraith mounted on a Fell Beast and includes two different Ringwraith head and weapon-arm variants, or as the Witch-king mounted on armoured Fell Beast. Model supplied with a 60mm round, scenic base.

And, if you're curious, here are the three sprues that come in the box:







Why the scenic base includes Galadhrim shields, spears and swords I have no idea...but there you have it, the Winged Nazgul

Thyrdan is the Dunlanding "uber-hero", so he should be a powerful SBG figure.

What gets me is that we now have a Dunlanding hero on horseback, but GW neglected to release their Dunlending cavalry, which would have been perfect to go along with this release.

Nor did they release the Helmingas soldiers, which we're supposed to be getting new profiles for. Wouldn't it be smarter to release all the Rohan/Isengard stuff at once, rather than leave two troop types and two Heroes (Doerwine and Elfhelm) for a later release?
