    I would never have guessed. They are definitely a cool and very thematic army, just missing a few lizards

    They do have an "undead" (technically it's not actually undead but an animated construct) crocodile!!! That has to count for something!

    Forget what I said about their flaws. That thing, while it may be dated by today’s standards, is awesome. Say would that be an ushabti?

    Yes it is. There are 4 variants with great weapons and 3 more variants wielding giant bows...

    Casket of Souls and the Slann are my favourite models ever.
    Simple concept, striking and iconic rendering.

    While I do like most Tomb King models, their big ones don't appeal to me for some reason (those and the old ugly Skellies). Ushabti are cool though.

    For reference, the 4th Ushabti with Great Weapon had a Vulture head - the unit above had two of the Jackal ones in it.

    Here’s a (slightly blurry) image of all 4 variants:

    The Lord of Lunaxoatl is pleased by this.

    For the record: I do like Vampire Counts (or at least their AoS successors, the Legions of Nagash).
    I am not a huge fan of the Vampires themselves though. I just like other a bit better. :)

    It was hard getting a nice large and clear picture of decently painted Ushabti with all four variants. You are of course correct though!

    Yeah... it would appear that my little poll here is not very indicative of the preferences of the gaming community at large. Such is the risk when dealing with such a small sample size. No matter, it is fun seeing the preferences none the less.

    I think the Vampire Counts are a pretty nice faction. Not Tomb Kings nice though!

    Skaven have their perks. I'm edging my way into fielding an Eshin-themed army with fitting toys from the other clans, especially Skryre's warplock jezzails, which I've been kitbashing.

    While situational, I'm happy with how destructive they can be, especially when buffed by even a Skryre warlock-bombardier. I can definitely rest easy knowing that they can reliably take down monsters and characters within 30".

    We are winning!
    As it should be, given that tomb kings don't serve.

    I wonder if Tomb Kings and Bretonnia would have been so popular among us if they had not been discontinued. Or is it that we are simply an anomaly, as I figure they must not have sold very well for GW to scrap them.

    Interesting thougth... Depents. Would the rules and figures been changed to the standard of AoS2 or would they be roughly the Same as WFB?

    I would guess that if they were big sellers they would have been updated into the current AoS game. Many of the other armies survived in one shape or form.
