It is rumoured that Dark Elves will be getting a major update next month. I a quite excited to hear that GW will be releasing lots of new plastic kits.
But how is this relevant to one who collects a WH40k Slaanesh army you may ask?
There are two main reasons:
When I first got back into the hobby I had not decided if I wanted to collect fantasy or 40k models, but I did know that my devotion was to Slaanesh. At the time I was seriously considering starting a Dark Elf Pleasure Cult. But I was put off by the lack of supporting rules and that the Dark Elf models weren't all that great. The only models I really wanted to paint where the Cold One Knights, but these wouldn't have fit with the army's theme. Then Dark Vengeance came out and I started getting all excited about Chaos Space Marines allied with Slaanesh daemons. So with this re release, we may yet see the return of pleasure cults.
Now the second reason I am excited is because I am always on the lookout for models to convert into Chaos Cultists. The current witch elf models look very dated, but they are possibly the closest thing available for the vision I have in mind for Slaanesh cultists. So I am really looking forward to seeing the new models in the hope there will be something that I can use.
