Wow, these are not what I expected. Very interesting design choice, still coming to terms with it. My immediate reaction is how is that S3? Will they be changed to S5 when they release?
Interesting… not what I expected either but I do like them. I’m thinking an S5 increase from S3 too when they release.
It looks like box of 2 with SMG and shotgun. If other rem boxes are a baseline we won't have 2 of each... Also any information if it's shitcast or metal?
Erm.... well this isn't what I expected at all. They have groin sensors/faces? Oooooookay then that's a choice. Given that these are a specialised snow theater unit (they're not available in any of the other sectorials) I'm really surprised they went with a bipedal unit on skinny digitrade feet which is the worst shape to be for traversing such terrain at 6-4 speed. I was expecting a Yaokong looking model except retrofitted to some snow mobile like tracks or something. They look.... fine I guess but they don't fit their fluff in the slightest. I'm pretty confused as to what all the extra sensors are on the model too that seem to serve no purpose.
These really don't shout ambush snow guardians at all... Hoping they're not meant to be s5. That would ruin my converted long ya :(
I think they look pretty cool and unique. Pretty sure the sensors are for their like “remote activation” or whatever in the lore for them.
I think it's the prospector from TAG raid as he has a clamp and this weird wirecutter for Styrofoam. It might not be the final design of thd box. Definitely not what I expected or hoped for. I am not sure what I think of them as of now. Very unique.
Kinda reminds me a bit of the old combat form Su-Jian. Faces in places: Head/Sensor - Marvin the Depressed Robot Main torso - Happy and high Crotch - Happy and perky Kneepads - very disappoint :-/ At least they're listed as Yu Jing. The mock-up they did for Betatroopers wrote "Tohaa" on the box...
I'm so converting the Kerail tigers to use them as ambush murder rems from the snow planet instead of these chappies...
Something very new design wise. I am not realy sure if I like this or not, but okay its unique at least. I can imagine, that the legs are able to fold down, so they can hide in the snow and the sensor detects the enemy, then they surprise attack with guns blazing ... :-) It looks like they copy the pics on a Su Jian box, funny the put the small - layout pics on the top. I remember the statement, that all REM (>S2) will be produced in plastic.
They look pretty cool! I like they are not like the other remotes. The stand out! (a little pun). I can't see them as S3 as everyone else has said too.
Love'em. I always dread painting the regular remotes, but I actually look forward to these ones. They look great, very Yoji Shinkawa. On the one hand, about fucking time. On the other, damn good job.
Quite agreed, I wouldn't have batted an eyelid if you said the latter, or even some new GW thing ... Seems very Blue Wolf like with the overbalance. Not sure how I feel about them, they will take some getting used to that's for sure.
