Games Workshop has produced an “unboxing” video for Dark Imperium…

I know I’m pretty excited about the new Boxed Set from Games Workshop for Warhammer 40,000 8th. So when GW put an “unboxing” video up I was getting ready to dive in. Then I noticed that the video only a minute and change long…

“Just opening the box though, is an experience. We gave a copy to our Edinburgh store manager and all round hobby-hero Baz to see what he made of it…”

Ahhh man! Just when it was about to get good. Is GW Trolling us or have they just been taking cues from Xzibit.

To be fair, we’ve already gotten a look at the contents inside the box – painted no less:

And we got a quick look at the sprues during Warhammer Fest 2017:

At the same time this was a pretty big “tease” from GW. I’ve done a few Unboxing videos in my time and there is a fine line between a good tease and a troll video. I seriously doubt that GW wanted to do anything besides build up some hype for Warhammer 40,000 8th – so take a deep breath and relax. The box is going out for Pre-orders this weekend.

Plus if your google-fu is strong enough, you can probably find an unboxing out there already…it might not be the best quality and you may or may not understand what the person is saying. Or you can just wait a few days for a better one to show up. It’s only a matter of time at this point.

June is right around the corner which means that Warhammer 40,000 8th is too!
