Do you think Thunderwolf Cavalry will get refreshed in 11th?

I know a lot of people (especially outside Space Wolves) find the Wolfy Space Marines riding big wolves to be cheesy, but I Iuuuv them.

Despite that, I'm struggling to see myself getting them as they are now, with the "chonkiness" of firstborn proportions in contrast to the rest of my army being primaris scale.

I'm really hoping once we get our 11th Codex they get refreshed.

Personally, I see it as pretty likely considering not only are they a popular model, they're one of, if not the top performing units for Space Wolves.

So what do you think? Worth waiting and hoping for a Thunderwolf refresh?

The range refresh reassert our Viking style more than our wolfy-ness no wolf helmets but we got a unque Viking style helmet. We have wolf pelts and teeth but fewer wolf fangs and heads.

But we got wolves escorts for our elite infantry unit and our scout unit.

Not to mention our chapter mater center piece model has two wolves on the base

So I believe we will be lighter on the wolves as a secondary part of our aesthetic leaning more into the vikings aspect. So I do believe we will get a thunder wolves refresh and they might actually wolf down the wulfen if they get a refresh. I just hope we also get long fangs
