Behold the GLORY of Archaon Everchosen & Review
All kneel before the ender of worlds! Archaon, Exalted Grand Marshal of the Apocalypse lands for us mortals to see in the round! – and what a “mini” it is!
via Games Workshop
“Archaon is the greatest champion of Chaos, the Exalted Grand Marshal of the Apocalypse. At his hand, the world-that-was faced annihilation and the Mortal Realms were subjugated.
Now, as the storm of Sigmar sweeps the realms, Archaon prepares to destroy the God-King.”
I have to say I LOVE Archaon.
The model is the very essence of the top-tier quality showcase pieces that GW is able to pull off these days. It’s not going to be easily customizable, and you would have a hard time using it for other games, but BOY IS IT FANTASTIC!
The pose and the height achieved in having the mount in an almost vertical position with it’s tail holding up it’s mass is impressive. It gives the physically small Archaon a towering height that showcases both his importance and command of the forces of chaos. This looks like a General that can face down something like Nagash, or boss around the Glottkin without looking just silly – something his old “horse” based model could never dream of pulling off. Heck, Archaon’s model makes the Celestant-Prime look like a pipsqueak!
The detail across the model is well done, the Khorne, Nurgle, and Tzeentch heads in particular – and even Slaanesh makes a subtle appearance on Archaon’s shield.
Well done GW – Well done!
The Everchosen is big, he’s impressive, and he and his mount provide a Chaos army a fantastic centerpiece model to look good on the tabletop – equal to any other that GW has put out for other factions.
5 out of 5 stars
What the heck has Archaon been feeding his “horse”?
