It's not surprising that the plastic Valkyrie looks like the FW one. Why GW is putting one out is beyond me though. It has little value in games, unless you have a drop troop regiment or an Inquisitorial army. Technically, not many Valkyries make it past these two groups.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02370584446868200808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786977598764243863.post-61479392347433929062009-02-20T14:21:00.000-06:002009-02-20T14:21:00.000-06:00guys, i went into GW and asked one of the staff ab...guys, i went into GW and asked one of the staff about this, and he said that this is defiantly a GW model, it will be £25!!!!!!!!
