Yep, pretty much agree on all points (except for not liking their fluff, which I do). Multi-kits with jetbikes (which are one of the oldest kits in the entire 40K range - I have a 2d edition jetbike and 3 new ones, and they match perfectly) and plastic Harlies, along with some options to make a limited variety of special characters (either on the sprues, like the Neurothrope, or in a clampack) plus a new supplemental codex that can ally with both CWE and DE. It is a good business move for GW, as Eldar haven't had a big release since the Wraithknight, which was quite some time ago now. A lot of Eldar players are restless, so throwing them a bone with updated Harlies and a new supp codex is probably a good way to get Eldar players to buy something other than their 4th Wave Serpent. I have no real need for more Harlies, but I will for sure buy the new codex when it comes out, and will probably plunk down a few dollars on whatever else comes out unless it's spectacularly awful (and GW's track record, at least as far as model aesthetics, has been pretty good lately. Our new Nids are all great, although I don't love the new Zoans as much as some).
I'm curious about the Masque of Slaanesh bit. Care to elaborate?
The Masque lost in a dance-off to a Solitaire. No daemon of she who thirsts beats a Solitaire at anything. Stylin' all over them.
