Warhammer 40,000 Vehicle – Golden Demon 2017

Posted on June 7, 2017 by Ben Jackson

The Golden Demon 2017 Warhammer 40,000 Vehicle categories appeared to be one of the most competitive this year. There were unsurprising lots of Space Marine Dreadnoughts. There were no less than five Leviathan pattern Siege Dreadnoughts. The imperial knights didn’t make as strong a showing this year.

The Golden Demon Warhammer 40,000 Squad entry was very difficult to get near at Warhammer Fest. I managed to get most of these photos later in the day when the area around the cabinets had calmed down.

What’s that coming over the Golden Demon hill? Is it a Monster? Yes it’s a monster.

As I’m not up on AOS unit names I’m going to call it how I see it. I invite you to comment if I get them wrong!

Battle Scene Golden Demon 2017 Diorama

The Golden Demon Diorama is another cagagory which doesn’t get a lot of attention. I personally find this one interesting creator to capture the essence of the Warhammer Universe. This year contained the slayer sword winning entry.

Sister of Battle Cannoness and Witch a Hunter Inquisitor both recent models for a faction which has seen very little love, over recent years, although dearly loved by many collectors.
