Sourcing the Jabberslythe?
By Rusty DiceToday Games Workshop fully announced the release of the plastic Winged Nazgûl for their Lord of the Rings range. While a beautiful model in its own environment I cannot help but wonder where this model can see other uses.
The first idea to come to mind is the re-imagined Jabberslythe in the upcoming Warhammer Armies: Beastmen. What is a Jabberslythe? The name and description confirm the obvious - the classic Jabberwork.
The Jabberwock, as illustrated by John Tenniel
Games Workshop once had a Jabberwork in their monster range, as far back as the 1986-1991 catalogue - a picture can be seen at Stuff of Legends.
Personally, I fully intend to recreate this classic concept and find the Fellbeast to be a perfect base:

I was thinking of using the Fellbeast for mine too. Seems the obvious choice and a great excuse to buy what looks like it’ll be another great plastic kit from GW
Looking forward to seeing what you make of it
