Erhm, there is no need to speculate they are wolves. If there was speculation, I'd advise you visit the optician next.

New dire wolves, yippie! although they look damn hard to paint to that standard
ghouls aren't that good IMO but i'll take them just because the ones we got now are worse than them
so we're gonna get another unit called wights right? or not?

I just got the new WD today, theres a lovely little page for VCs and at the back is the fantastic corpse cart. Mmmmmm....
The skeletons looks unbelievable, i really love them. Especially the one with its front head caved in. For those about the KoBK, i think they look fantastic, really evil and kick ass. Personally, a horse on the charge can easily smash through anything, the size and momentum with the added weight of the armour and spikey bits is a help. Where as a huge wolf is both stupid and unlikely to carry a fully armoured warrior into combat, and they look like horses anyway.
No way in hell are they going to be £40 a pack, because thats just stupid, not even a giant is that much. Its incredibly unlikely, id say £25 like the high elf Dragon Knight chappies.

Having seen most of the models, I really like them all. The wolves nad the ghouls required a second, closer look, butthey both meet with approval.
Only Konrad and a couple of generic vampires left, unless I'm mistaken.

The Ghouls don't look too bad. The Dire Wolves look pretty good. I'm not overly impressed with the Wights (it's their helmets, again).
One thing I will say is looking at the spearhead picture the army actually looks very coherent and not like the messy mix of styles it's previously always been.

Ehm, Bat Swarms? Necromancers? All of the other Characters? Fells Bats? Black Coach? Banshees? Wraiths? Black Knights? And I wonder if those guys on the Spearhead are Grave Guard at all?
If they are GG, then what are these? Remember me 1 Remember me 2
I love the new sculpts. No idea why they put in 10 Skeletons and 10 Dire Wolves, as well as 10 Grave Guard. Very weird numbers in my book.
This is going to be a very weird spearhead.... I mean 10 Ghouls, 10 Skeletons, 10 Grave Guard, 10 Dire Wolves, 2 Vamps, 1 Corpse Cart...
How much will it cost?
I'm actually a really big fan of the Dire Wolves, they may or may not be perfect, but they're very different from goblin wolves and are obviously undeady. If we don't like them we can still use the goblin stuff, or even combine the two for conversions for a half way look. Something this different is what we needed.
MV - they are definitely Grave Guard.
The Dire Wolves enhance the construct aspect of their nature and detract from the natural predator side of things which is ok in my book.

I've just been doing some Euro to £££ conversions. The prices aren't that bad.

oh , ok thanks!
then the price on that site is just a typo or something
but why the hell are they putting skellies in 10man boxes?
and to get to 20(of which the price is currently 30€) you have to pay 35€, that's not that much more but...well... it's still more

I like the look of the cover.
As for the models, I really like the ghouls although I don't fancy the greenish tient they've got. I see a lot of potential in them.
The wolves I'm doubtful about. Their heads look huge. I pray it's the angle though, because the current wolves stink.

Look here for even,even pictures of VC. Containing Mannfred footed, Konrad and vlad (but painted better) http://warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=119180

I like the looks of all the mini's. After years of horrid sculpts and raiding other armies for mini's I will take them. The worry for me is how Carstein centered the book seems. I am a Von Carstein player and hey new Carstein mini's make me HAPPY , but I am worried the new approach may turn off some players. looking forward to painting and playing that army.

Is it just me or do the new wolves look like giant rotten rats in the pic? Hope it's the angle and paint job as well, or else gobbo wolf riders here I come.

Konrad looks very promising, although it is somewhat hard to see the details when he's not painted. Mannfred on foot still looks disproportioned.
