Shock Troops - Sci Fi Greatcoat Infantry Up for Pre-Order!

What to say? It's finally here, and WOW! It was worth the wait. Really digging the rifle-at-the-ready advancing pose.

YEEEEEEEEEHHAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! >;D

Pretty darned cool! I'm not sure about the chem-gun, but it still looks pretty good.

OMG sweet. I am so building an IG army out of these guys. Bring on the heavy weapons, command, armor, everything!

Your range is absolutly great. Your minis are really details and are so cheap. I am french, so I will wait to have enought money to make a great order. *Sakartoune, Waiting for next news ^^*

These are great, I'm gonna need a fair few for my Imps.

Really not that keen on the Darth Vader style heads. Not that keen at all.

Big Wow! They turned out a lot better than i imagined. Even after seeing the preview on Beasts of War they look great. Looks like I will be getting some :) Any chance of seeing the Sprue (weapons/body/heads variants) before I order? Happy Gaming, Allan

Very nice once more! A few added weapons and bare heads heads and Ill have some awesome troops!

No feedback was left by this visitor.

Pre ordered 10. Being involved in the Forum thread that drove the design was one of thebest gaming experience in 30+ years.

These look great. Are you familiar with a new film, now in production, called Iron Sky ... ? Your Shock Troops look very much like their Moon Nazi Waffen-SS troops. Your new figures present some very interesting possibilities ...

The prime example of why design by committee does not work. These things are horrible...

After all the time watching there develop I am more than please with the results. My IG will be getting another full platoon larger now! Remember for when you do the command/Hvy weapon guys...BACKPACKS!

Would love to see a pic of how they compare to a Imperial Guard Cadian trooper. Also when will we see heavy weapons and command guys. This could become another company.

Hope the price hike isn't indicative of a trend...

They are great for German weird war Minis too i like them

Can we get a picture of the sprue please? And some of the alternate heads?

They look okay for the price. Not super psyched.

very nice figs, interested what thier opposition going to look like

You have just made my day. Now I can finally afford to play as Imperial Guard! :D

Wargames factory strikes again. ( NO pun intended but some helmets look like a darth va... You know) I did not expect this to come for at least some months since the vikings came out not so long ago. Marvelous models, sinsiter enugh and the head-choices just insane.

New California Republic soldiers! Now I just need some Brotherhood, Raiders and Super Mutants and we're good.

Nice. As if the heads on the sprue weren't enough, it looks like these torsos might make a nice match with Pig Iron Production's various heads.

These are pretty awesome. I'll have to pick at least one set up, maybe more.

Really great and much anticipated. I like the compromise between natural proportions and the so-called "heroic" style of sculpting, which may be more sturdy but is unrealistic and sometimes borders on the "mutant." Now waiting on the armed civilians and generic power armor -- any previews on those designs? Thanks for a new breath of fresh air and some great additions to the plastic, multi-pose scifi market!

Im in. Superb.

Sweet

These models look awesome when the time comes these guys will face a zombie horde

wow just wow ... i think i am going to have to get some of these guys :D

GW be buggered; these are fantastic! Not just as troops for line formations. Escorts for heroes and specialists of all sorts, the poses and mixes of weapons are already fantastic. But best of all, using plastic sprues made by other manufacturers means these babies will be perfect for hundreds of eras; from WWI to the far reaches of any galaxy. Top marks Warlord; these may well end up you number one seller ever.

Brilliant models, definitely worth the wait! I hope the price hike isn't a continuing trend though.

This is extreme! I'm so gonna buy these-in their hundreds.

Excellent! We've been watching this item move from a dream to reality. So many head options and so many arms and weapons. Wow!

Nice new range, maybe they will be great to be converted with your roman range. I really would love to build my Weird WW2 Romans with Italiens conquering the whole of africa. Cheers

Absolutely awesome!

Great set, makes me want to build a nother IG army...

Really cool, and i guess theyd make some nice AdMech Skitarii, too...

man paypal shut work faster cant wait to get this guys (bigbox) XD

Just when I thought you guys made enough mini's that I collect you come out w/ another range that I just have to have. First it was the Celts them it was the ancient light infanrty, then the Vikings ( all the while still collecting the colonial british as IG praetorians) & Now this! Honestly the sprue was done really well & the inclusion of grenade launcher & flame thrower really kicks A*% ! Well it looks like I'll be ordering even more stuff from you guys in the foreseeable future

I like the models very much, but considering the price of some of your other models these are kind of expensive. They are the first models to break $1 for a single figure. I understand that there are many extra options, but the price is a bit prohibitive for a historical gamer looking at sci-fi.

I don't think you're the target audience mate. LOL 10000 IG players just creamed themselves to get $1 models.

Do you ship to Brazil? If so, I'm totally going to order some of these guys...

Fantasy models are always more expensive than historicals (don't know why though) and these a still half the price of GW's!!

Will there be a heavy sprue with thee guys kneeling or laying down ala other heavy sci fi models that we see with heavy weapon teams?

Is the Fun Head a PREDATOR HEAD? Cool

We really need an extra set with officers. At least one head with a WWII-style german officers cap. I can du head swaps, but...

Awesome! Really superb, congratulations WF I hope these guys are massive sellers for you. Great price as well. They'll be joining my Praetorians as storm troopers but I can think of other uses as well. Well done everyone...

Liking them enough to order. Interesting head choices. They will do for Traitor 40k Guard well enough. Not digging the Vader helmet either. I will gladly trade those for other heads on the sprue from other buyers. Looking foward to command, heavy wepons and maybe some artillery.

I absolutely love the torsos and heads, very well done. but I absolutely hate the weapons arms, the shoulder pads seem unnecessarily large, and cartoony they remind me of the 1st generation plastic space marines.

is the special item a female head???

I said that these would be ideal for anyone wanting to do a "Death Korps" style army, and your pictures have just confirmed this! Cannot wait to order these guys for my IG army.

Very nice, Ill be making an IG platoon out of the 57 man deal but are they supplied with bases?

Once more....GREAT JOB! I wish you guys were around way back when I started collecting minis, the figures are nice and an easy way to collect an army! Hope to latch on to these soon!

Overall, I like them. That said, I'm not pleased with the additional cost. I realize that all the extras included drive up the production cost, but seeing as I think most of the extras don't look very good, I can't place much value on them. I'll still pick up a few boxes from TheWarStore, but not as many as I had intended.

awesome i preordered 7 boxes doin my 6th company of ig great job guys

gonna use them as storm troopers,with a bit of ig kit bashing,to make them look more ig

Nice. I'm wondering how they would fit with the West Wind SOTR heads? Because put some british heads on these and they'd be fantastic Warzone-style trenchers...

GW is doing a great job and their kits and miniatures are really very good. But they are inspired by well established sci-fi/fantasy cultural images and literature and you can´t really say that the GW worlds are unique in a broader sense. So I think when WF releases these fabulous miniatures they´re also a part of the same sci-fi/fantasy cultural heritage. No more or no less than GW!

Glad to see several hitchhiking thumbs made it in!

NICE ITEMS March-Waiting Hoping. Impatient my purchase SHOCK TROOPS 3X + 1 DEAL Regards all

HUZZAH!!!!

Stargrunt platoon here I come! I'm diggin' the Vader helmets!

This space intentionally left blank.

My Steel Legion just became Conscripts! I just ordered the 126 models with free shipping. Hurray Beer!

I ordered some of these shiny new troopers, and I am looking forward to receiving them. I am however a little miffed by the way that WF have taken the money from my VISA account allright, but they have'nt seen fit to send me a confirmation e-mail. This is my first purchase at WF, is this the way it always is? Forgive me for asking here, but they also seem to be to busy to answer the mails I've sent.

Hi Kenneth - check your spam filter - we've sent you four emails starting on 4/20! Didn't know they weren't getting to you. Just sent two more from a different account. Sorry for the confusion. The Spam Folder is NOT our friend sometimes! Tony

Wow, these guys look great! Perfect for my new inquisition army as stormtroopers.

got 124 order cant whait to get them and make one giant IG DKOK army in killzone 2 style :D

Worked a little overtime and just placed my order for the 7 box deal. The over time will be worth it!

great figures ,worth the wait and more than lived up to expectations.From the comments ,some of you guys want the moon on a stick!! Figures as good as G.w ,LESS THAN A QUID EACH!! lots of variants too,guess what,if you dont like the Vader heads,don't use 'em!Mine will become officers....

No feedback was left by this visitor.

I know what the funny suprise is. The guys from Beasts of War showed it in their youtube film. And this set is awesome, I am getting one for sure.

Come on, come on, what's the holdup? Release please:-)

So, we are now a bit into May, when will these be shipping? :)

Nice. Could be used as Skitarri

For anyone wondering what the "fun extra" might be, here's a clue. Think Arnie and the invisible alien in the South American jungle that goes by an alternative word for "hunter", and starts with a "P".

We will see box art right before they ship if they are doing these the same as other models they have produced. We still have 2 weeks left in may so be patient. I know I my steel legion IG army is patiently waiting these "Harded Veterns" to join their ranks

Not predator but more of "Dr. Zorgberg" from Futurama. My bases came in from GW now all I need is my new shock troopers!

Great The Bauhuas shall rise again, I now can make Warzone. Woohoo!

Hoping that we'll be able to Shock people with our Troops by early June. It's gaming tournament season, and I'd love to get these guys on a table soon.

Like these guys... would love to see how they match up size wise to Plastic Cadians, if it's a good match it's conversion madness and new army time!

Beasts of War on Youtube did a review of the Shock Troopers and they compared them with Cadians. They are the same size.

Have they shipped these minis out yet? It's already mid-June and still waiting for my order.

It will be good if these shock troopers ever get released I had an order with wayland games for 3 box sets but have now stoped the order.gw do not say they are putting out a set then not bring it our for 2 months plus.

Great...! I realy like those head : half german / half Vader ! It's cool to read that it fits to the cadian troops. I mean it could be interesting to create veterans or "shock troops" of the Imperial Guard (may from be another planet system etc.)

Be good to know when these have shipped.

So what happened to shipping mid june? It is july and NADA!

From what I've been told through email correspondence, there have been unforeseen personal and logistical hurdles that WGF has had to clear before the Shock Troopers were ready for shipping. Those are potentially out of the way, and packaging should have started this weekend. Possibly.

The flamer model for these is almost an exact replica of the flamer illustrated in "Siege of Vraks"vol 1. This only goes to confirm that these will be ideal figures for a "death korps" army. Cannot wait to get my hands on these.

happy happy happy dance!!! my I.G. regiment is going to be getting it's 4th company thank you! For the money this is all Win!

My "3 for 2" deal from Northstar arrived last week, and ALL my thoughts about these figures were confirmed! These are the best non GW minis for the Imperial Guard on the market at present, and I would recommend them to any gamer who doesn't want to pay GW prices.

Holy smokes! Kerberos Panzer Cops!! On my third box, GREAT models can't wait to see how this line is going to be expanded. SO much great stuff for conversions! Keep up the great work!

I finally got my troops in, they are well worth the wait. Great job guys!

These are very nice troopers. When are more coming out? I'd like some heroes, officers, and heavy weapons.
