I'm sorry, this "new" warhound is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. Most technology advances warrant an evolutionary design, as far as weaponry goes. Okay , okay, I know, it is set way off into the future and blah blah, etc, etc, but still, there should have been some effort to retain some of the blocky, thicker feel of the older warlord/fw warhound titans. I personally adore my FW warhounds, and you won't catch me putting any of my hard earned cash down on these things.
Just my 2 bits worth.

I loved the old Reavers - especially in Metallic blue.... ah.... metallic blue and silver, so easy to paint but so effect to see.

Hi!
Those colors were slick, I have one like that. I prefered blood read and bronzed gold trimming for most of them, although I through in some heraldic chevrons for contrast.

The good thing is that we will have choice. People wanting dark future gothic titan will go for the GW range; people wanting more strict "clean" sci-fi models will prefer FW ones.
A small thing tho : the FW warhound is really exceptional in details, and the FW model can be assembled in about any position you want, wich is a very good feature that cannot be considered a matter of taste.
However, i hear unexperienced modeller complain about how it make the mini more difficult to use, so maybe it's good that the GW one is "simpler" in that regard.
And just a precision : when i talked about the "weapon mount" on the warhound, i refered to the way the weapon were mounted, not the weapon itself; the old metal one were the same for warhound and reaver anyway.
by the way, the "squary" design isn't the old one; it's a rather new one on the contrary, which originated in the mk3 warlord; but original titans were much more akin to this warhound for their shape.
I like both design "school" and will probably buy some of this new warhounds... the 6 (old) ones i have are more than enough, but this one is much better in my taste, and at least different.

Hi!
Overall the FW minins are very good, they have clean lines and are pleasing to the eye, I haven't seen one yet I REALLY dislike, but they are somwhat "plain". This is good however for those who like to convert since its easier to add things on them.

And the other weird thing about FW models which takes some getting used to, is picking up a large titan to find it doesnt weigh anything beasue its resin.
Its a mental thing, but I miss the heavy lead of big bad models!
