For those of you feeling a touch underwhelmed with Guilliman.. found this earlier. Holy. Crap.

I'm a littlbe behind on my HH trivia, what happened to his set of Hulk Hands? I thought Calgar's Hulk Hands were the same ones Guiliman had?

I think he gets the Hulk Hands (nice one!) by killing a 'Chaos Champion'.

We aren't quite to the point where Chaos Champions are a 'thing' yet in the story, so...maybe in Black Library The Scourging Book XIV or something?

Doesn't he get those gauntlets later on?

its possibly an earlier depiction of him

I'm guessing that they are an option that will appear in a future Guiliman sculpt, as pretty much all the Primarchs had multiple weapons and personal armouries. Dorn will probably have a different sculpt with the sword he later snaps over his knee during the Siege of Terra for example; there will probably be Perturabos before and after aquiring Ferrus Manus' hammer etc.

Thats the command chair from a cerastus knight right there - upgrade pack in the future? i really hope so!

I love the way his armour looks like the Cerastuses armour.

I just love that the whole throne bit is on a base like it's supposed to be a complete miniature.

Love to get my hands on the standing version. I fear that it'll be show only though

Or maybe a future Nottingham exclusive?

I'd guess the seated version is Warhammer World Only and the standing version will be Show Only.

Why are we expecting them to be event only ones? I don't think FW usually show their event only stuff until just before the first event you can get them.

We're not expecting anything - just guessing!

I like that the new Khorne walker finally looks like a Daemon Engine. I imagine that if this was how GW would have sold the kit in the first place, they would have sold wonderfully.

Seriously. I'm getting at least two of the khorne walkers , and one chaos Knight.

But.. but.. the toes! They're freaking me out for some reason! It's like when you see for the first time an Indian person wearing the socks that split the toe off like a mitten so they can wear sandals... the socks defy all things normal when not a simple tube! it's not a khorne mower if it loses the movwer.

In that diorama with WB vs. Ultra there is a bunch of cargo containers. I remember on the old FW website where they had their designers listed and all projects they've worked on, it was said that one of designers was working on a cargo container that supposedly was used for SM logistics as well as for transporting attack bikes. I can't remember FW officially releasing those cargo containers but yet it looks like they had a small batch produced for themselves.

A lot of stuff they mentioned to be working on has never been released or seen the light of day in the end sadly. Years and years ago, around the time when they were working on the Aquila lander, there was also talk of them doing a staff car for Imperial officials, which was described as an armoured, grim dark version of a Rolls Royce.

I'm still faintly hoping that one day we'll see that one.

Now that would be a kick-ass limo for the genestealer cults...

This, they, they were making WHAT?! Who the hell pulled the plug on THAT project?!?! That should so be a thing! I want my armoured, skull festoned, eagle coated Rolls Royce!!!
Ok, forget Warlord Titans, a petition needs to be made to FW...

Blame 30k. Why make cool niche-market things when you can make a dozen different shoulder pads in the same amount of time?

Yeah, they still haven't done the Elysian Stormtroopers or Commissars or any number of projects that were in a concept phase.

The cargo containers though were intended to be for the Thunderhawk Transporter.

We're also missing the autocannon and lascannon for the Elysians, while not as fluffy as the other support weapons, I do miss them a lot.

They could also be good lads and update their squads and whatnot to include fething pistols and swords for the sergeants, because for some reason being a sergeant in the Imperial Guard means requiring to carry a sword and pistol these days..

I'm sad. And conflicted. I love what they're doing for 30K. But, I want my staff car. And cargo containers. What happened to the Imperial Armour volume for the prison world? And, as has been said, the remaining Elysians. There were some additional Eldar Titan weapons mentioned at one point. And the Orks for the Bad Moons, Snake Bite and Blood Axe clans. What ever happened to Bran Redmaw

Bran really, really needs to sharpen that axe.

Was gonna say thats a nice model other than the fact the axe is more a bludgeoning weapon than anything else with that wide a blade.

That's a novelty power hammer.

With 6 different sounds to choose from and flashing LEDs on the runes! lol.

I keep hearing it quoted that the model was stolen actually.

I don't know how true that is. Very much a friend of a friend told me sort of thing.

I feel the same way. I love everything that FW does, but 30k means that they have to get through 18 Legions and additional factions (Solar Auxila, Mechanicum). I respect that they're being slow and thorough, though - everyone is getting their favourite Legion treated more or less equally, it's just a matter of time. Compare to GW main with the situation of Sisters, Tyranids, Chaos, and the new Space Marine Chapter upgrade sets; three out of four are for the Chapters who have an abundance of unique decorations and details, while the rest are completely ignored. I like FW constantly producing things, and it's not like non-30k projects have ceased - the Dimachaeron, for example. I just would like to see the occasional new Eldar model from them (if they made something that could be used to convert all Eldar infantry in truescale, I would quickly become very poor), though, and a lot more of that wonderful non-game background stuff like the aforementioned staff car or their existing support vehicles.

Sadly I doubt this will ever happen. Even the background stuff they already had has mostly gone OOP, and I suspect that the few things that are still available aren't being made anymore and are only available until the existing stock runs out. But I guess that's what happens when you have to clear warehouse space to make room for a million more space marine shoulder pads.

Ah well plenty of die cast cars out there I can glue skulls to.
