From the Mantic Blog:
Not content with offering up three different Dwarf units and 3 gorgeous metal kits, we’ve a new addition to the family; the Dwarf Shieldbreakers.
Carrying two-handed hammers, in game terms these guys hit harder than the regular Dwarf Ironclad and, with the Crushing Strength special rule, cause more damage too! You can find out all about the stats for the Dwarf Shieldbreaker by downloading our armylists in our Gaming section on the website.
The Dwarf Shieldbreaker frame is just one of several new units we have planned for the existing ranges (we’re still getting requests for Dwarf cavalry – that’d be fun wouldn’t it?) and will begin shipping on the 26th November. They are now available to pre-order from our website here.
Of course, if you cannot wait until then, you can actually pick up the Shieldbreakers in the Dwarf Army Set alongside 40 Ironclad, 30 Ironwatch and 2 warmachines (as well as the Kings of War rulesets!); the single best way to start a plastic Dwarf collection, nearly two weeks earlier than their main release. Check out the set here!

It's always great news hearing that a new Mantic release is near. Meg is planning on a Mantic Dwarf army and with my Mhorgoths Revenge box on it's way she will have a fine core with which to add the Shieldbreakers too.
Also notice Dwarf Cavalry hinted at in the blog post. I am not entirely sure as to what the dwarfs will ride but as tradition states it's bears in other miniatures ranges Mantic aren't ones to bulk away from it.
