First Look Review – White Dwarf #12 New Citadel Hobby Tools

By Rob Baer | April 19th, 2014 | Categories: First Look, Product Review, Videos, White Dwarf

Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot, where did these tools come from?

Seemingly out of no where Games Workshop dropped a hobby bomb(shell) on us and it seems next weeks new releases are a revamp to their already successful line of hobby tools.

Gone is the Paint Station and rubberized grip tools line, in is something that looks like Bear Grylls would use to hobby in the wilderness.

It almost begs the question, if something isn’t broke, why fix it?

Regardless the new White Dwarf is here, and once again the end of month issues seem to lack the punch of content that the early month issues do.

Also back right around the same time as last month is another Hobbit article, which may make some wonder about the timing of such articles as well.

This weeks magazine is literally a template of last month’s notoriously content lacking, and buy our limited edition “X”  product issue as well.

If the pattern holds, who knows what next months Memorial Day weekly issue will hold, right?

Fortunately though, the Paint splatter article is better this time around, and there is a neat article on allying with the new Astra Militarum as well.

So don’t give up yet, next issue is only a week away!

Check it out in my latest White Dwarf review, below! -MBG

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

LEGO maniac and scale model hobbyist in the 80s turned miniature wargamer and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
