Could incubi work as chosen?

As the title asks, could the new dark sodas incubi work as slaaneshi chosen?

They have the graceful pose and great weapons though I am not sure if they would work as is or with one or both of the following conversions:

1) head swap with chosen heads
2) remove the trophy racks

Any ideas from those who have seen the models would be appreciated. I am planning on a unit of 6 (yes I know they come in boxes of 5, but I try to keep my units in multiples of 6) to back up my existing unit of chosen with halberds shields and additional hand weapon.

Yes they would work as Slaneshi Chosen, and you could use the Mandrakes as Forsaken. I'm planning to rip the heads off a bunch of Incubi and Archons to make another unit of Warriors.

I could see them being Slaaneshi. For some reason I don't see them being too much of anything else, the armour style seems a bit too sleek to be Nurgle - which means I can't use them! *whines*

The models are actually quite a lot smaller then any Chaos Warrior. (By which I mean thinner and shorter)

Thanks for the heads up.

I'll try to check model size this weekend.

No problem. Glad to be of help. The thing about 40k is that the humans of Warhammer Fantasy are the proportions of a Space Marine in 40k. The humans in 40k are slightly smaller in scale, so elves (Eldar) are even smaller

I've decided to take the plunge and use incubi as chosen. I have brought a box of them an archon (chosen champion or an exalted) and lelith (exalted bsb). I am now stuck on lithe looking warriors.

How's it working out for you? Have you gotten them yet? :)

Not an Incubi, but the Archeon that will be a chaos lord/chosen champion

Good idea. You could use the Tribe of Black Lotus heads from maxmini to replace the standard heads. They look very Slaanesh.

I say yes since I had the same thought. Especially Slaanesh Chosen (though they are are poor choice)

I was thinking about this the other day, and the whole dark eldar range works nicely for Slaaneshi dark elf themed chaos armies:

Archon - Lord/Sorcerer
Harmonculi - Nurgle sorcerers
Wyches -marauders
Kabalites (with weapon swaps) - Chaos Warriors
Incubi - Chosen/Warrior champions
Mandrakes - Forsaken
Hellions - If you turn the flying stands into discs you get awesome marrauder horsemen
