I like Fitz's DE concepts, except the head with the pom-poms. Replace
that, and you have a nice set of figs.

The Genestealer Magus is pretty cool, as is the IG General. The
Servitors are pretty cool, not as boring as the current models.

The BA Scout is nice. Would've been nice to see a box of BA Scouts.

That Noise Marine backpack would've made for some awesome conversions.

Don't count out the Space Slann, they do have a picture of a
lizard/frog-looking alien in the rulebook labeled "Slanni".

Not a big fan of the pirate.

That Termagant looks about as bad as the RT era Termagants in
production did.

Interesting models. I think some of those could have sold.

I don't know when that IG trooper on the site was conceived, but I'll bet
him and his bros would've sold like hot cakes.

Interesting.

The Female IG trooper with missile launcher did come out really, as Rocket
Girl in the Last Chancers set, just with modified arms and a smaller missile
launcher.

it looks like a good many of those are concept figures, so it's not
remarkable that they never got released. the prototype tyranid figure is
historically well-known from the RT rulebook, though.

They even had released models:

I have the Space Slann beastmaster myself (not shown on that page, but comes
with 2 large lizard things).

Are you sure that was a Space Slann?

When I bought it many many moons ago it came in a Rogue Trader blister pack
with the label "Space Slann Beastmaster" on it. It's possible that it was
released for both.

Oops, meant Slann with Warhounds. It's also possible it was one of those
blister pack glitches GW seemed to have back then and was on an RT card but
was actually a WFB release. I've probably still got the card kicking around
at my parents house - I left a lot of stuff there when I moved out. Next
time I visit I'll see if I can find it.

It's just as well Fitzpatrick rather than Morley got to work on the
Dark Eldar... Shame about the Necrons, though: the ones here are
better than the final product, not least because of the
better-designed, better-proportioned guns and superior heads.

Too Fantasy.

Too overdone with the finery.

GW has yet to make a good Servitor model, either for release or
otherwise.

I was fairly sure those Noise Marines got released - I can't see any
difference from the 40k2 versions.

The thing shown here looks like a Kroot with a head swap.

You missed out the fact that the Necrons shown aren't a complete
eyesore, unlike the production models.

For the most part I'm glad these didn't make it to release -
especially the DE with the chunky swords and stilted poses, and the
abominable Chaos Warrior. The Dwarf cavalry is quite sweet, though,
and I like the HE Mage.

A couple of the new ones recently released for marines are good.

they're better than the down syndrome daemonhunters ones, but "good" is
pushing it a bit.
