SPOTTED? Harlequin Starweaver Transport

It’s a 40k Murder Mystery! Checkout some possible Easter Eggs from the Harlequin release video yesterday.

Some very keen eyed readers noticed something very interesting about the video’s title image.

First off, it looks like it’s the cover artwork for a soon to be released Harlequin Codex…

That being said, look very closely at the two vehicles above the main figure’s head above.  

That may very well be an artist’s impression of the upcoming Harlequin transport: The Starweaver.

Some people see different things in that image.

To most of us we see the Vyper model right? But what if the Harlequins either can use it, or they have their own version of it?

BoLS’ Big Red writes;

You can see the distinctive grills with the “spine” on the underside of the forward engine cowl, and the rear gunner turret with the forward pointed gun up top.  They are more rakish and have sharper more Dark Eldar looking edges than the Vyper but that’s probably artistic license.  I would assume a vyper/venom variant for the Star Weaver transport based on this.

 So what do you think?
