Some are good some are bad, the war walkers as said are great looking. Remind me slightly as a more open top version of those walkers from Start Wars but good. The Fire Dragons look pretty cool too and the plastics, I presume Dire Avengers. The Banshees I don't like. They look too bulky, these are suppose to be lithe and flexable warriors that prance about and move like dancers. To me these minis do not convey this at all.

I've seen all of those today but the dire avengers. And avengers look the best :) Hope they make a useful unit of them in eldar codex, as for now nobody uses them :)
Aspect warriors have not changed that much, so I do not see a point of releasing new sculpts. Love the new banshee swords, though.
War Walker - look nice, apart from stupid front shield/windows. First from the right look like a dancing horse :)

I actually like the window/shields on the Walkers as it ties them in more with the rest of the range and Imho actually makes sense. (opposed to the open topped ones)

It also seems the Eldar got a bit bulkier, don't know if that's a good thing though as I like the Eldar slim look! Anyone saw a pic of the new Wraith Lord?

yay, new eldar :cyclops:, the dark avengers (altough not very different from now) look awesome!
The warwalkers, well, I've never liked war walkers, don't fit into my wiew of eldar :).

Now, lets hope they won't make any new guardians, as I've 30 of them still on sprues... :P

Those fire dragons look VERY much like the old OLD metal ones from the Rogue Trader days! Nice!

I am not an Eldar fan but I do like the new War Walkers, they look alot better than the older version.

war walkers look like they got poseable legs. Very cool.

Shame the fire dragons and banshees aren't plastic.

The Dire Avengers look nice. I prefer the current banshees though. I have to get a blister of the current ones, as I always wanted to paint one or two.
