{{Trivia}}
In an interview for [[White Dwarf Magazine|White Dwarf]], [[Jes Goodwin]], one of [[Games Workshop]]'s artists and miniature sculptor, and designer, said that the Harlequins predate [[Aspect Warriors]], as the [[Aeldari]] infantry elite. Back in the early days of [[Rogue Trader (Rulebook)|Rogue Trader]], there were more models for Harlequins than [[Guardian|Guardians]] or any other type of Eldar. Even if the Harlequins first strode onto the [[Warhammer 40,000]] stage in September 1988, making them arguably the first distinct Eldar faction, years ahead of the [[Craftworlds]]. The Harlequin troupes, as they were, are very recognisable to modern fans, with elements such as the [[Solitaires]] and the infamous [[Harlequin's Kiss]] represented. Today, like their Craftworld and [[Commorrite]] brethren, the Harlequins are a distinct and separate force. Still, their equipment and vehicles echo their kin, in part to maintain the faction's distinct Eldar identity. Still, it could also hint at common ancestors of equipment, ur-weapons, and patterns of vehicles from before the fall of the great [[Aeldari Empire]].{{Fn|36a}}
