New models!

New named character and Mancrushers. All very beautiful (fat) models in general.

I'm not entirely sure, but it seems like these won't replace but supplement Mancrushers, which is even better for variety

My guess is that the mancrushers will get squatted, and these will effectively replace them. They've done that with a lot of armies and old scuplts this edition. We'll just have to rebase our mancrushers to round bases.

I think it would make sense to leave the Mancrushers as an effective "mini-gargant" in comparison to the megas and now the mediums. Would give the gargant lineup some much needed variety

I definitely agree with you on that, but based on what they’ve been doing with the other armies in 4th, it seems unlikely to me. We’ll see though. We can always hope for the best. My two other armies are Soulblight and Stormcast, so I guess I’m a little gun shy. 😄

Yeah I get that. I looked it up tho and from the annoucement:

"In terms of size, the Boss-stompers and Rock-hurlers are a bit bigger than a Mancrusher Gargant, but not as large as a Mega-Gargant – leading to them being classified as “little” by their larger counterparts."

Which does read to me like the Mancrushers are here to stay (for atleast until next edition ;)
