And after GW release a load of 40k chaos models, fantasy gets a turn now. And its more chaos.
Its mainly metal stuff becoming Finecast but there are a few new character models as well as;
A Warshrine
Some chaos warriors on Juggernauts (skullcrushers)
Hellstriders of Slaanesh

Overall not a bad release, and I must say I quite like those Skullcrushers. Valkia the Bloody also looks pretty cool.

And I'll add here that the latest White Dwarf contains an official army book update providing rules for the Skullcrushers and Hellstriders. The Skullcrushers and a big expensive unit with a very good armour save; Chaos Armour + Shield + Jeggernaut (which provides +3 instead of the standard +1). These are also multi-wound models.
The Hellstriders on the other hand are more than 3x cheaper and, whilst not initially fanatastic, gain additional bonuses for killing or overrunning enemy units.
