So, we've had the worst models, so what do you think are the best? I myself am quite fond of the Assault on Black Reach Warboss and Sphess Marine Captain.

I'm torn between the following:

  • MUMAK! so awesome it deserves capital letters.

  • Lizardman Engine of the Gods. Dinosaur + Rocks + Priest = woooo

  • Grey Knight Terminators. The re-sculpt of these models was just the thing to get me back into the hobby years ago.

  • Warwalkers. Fantastic plastic kit. Easy to assemble and looks great, too.

  • Wood Elf Lords and Wizards. I love them all

@Boss 'eadbreaka:

Putting a terminator on a wolf just looks silly, he looks like he is going to crush it. Might as well put him on a unicycle.

Also, his fat hands means he looks like he will have trouble gripping the reigns, and when he does he would likely decapitate the wolf with his claws.

The direct Order Eldar Ranger, the one kneeling, I think is freaking awesome, and great fun to paint.

GK termies, as have been said.

Lightning Claw man from Space Hulk.

Jump Pack Chaplain and Termie Chaplain both ooze badassery.

That's it off the top of my head.

I can't cut it down to one model, but these are my favourites:
- CSM Terminator Lord (Plastic kit)
- Vindicare Assassin (the one stood on the skull, looking down the rifle's sight)

I really liked the model for Interrogator-Chaplain Asmodai for Dark Angels too, shame he got removed from the latest Codex (?) I don't collect Dark Angels, but the model was pretty nice. I doubt he's in production now :(

+1 for Grey Knight Terminators too, they look awesome.

As a pure Grey Knight player, I say the Grey Knight Terminators are 70% of the reason I play them. Because of awesomeness.

From Forge World, the new Daemon Prince of Khorne (the one that comes with the Herald) is stuffed to the gills with amazing, but is a PITA to assemble.

For those who have never assembled it, just try to GUESS how many pieces it is!

I also love Maugan Ra, Asurmen and Jes Goodwin's original Howling Banshee and Warlock models.

For Marines, Pedro Cantor (He spells it with a 'C', damnit. Check Rogue Trader) and the Techmarine with Servo Harness really stand out.

I dont even like Chaos (40k or Fantasy) but that Khorne Lord on Juggernaut also makes me wanna start a Khornate army for Fantasy. It's a testament to how badass the model is. The pose, dynamics and size of it oozes pure badassery.

That being said, the new Deathmaster Snikch model for the soon-to-be-updated Skaven also makes me wanna start up a horde of ratmen, despite my vows never to start up a horde army, ever again....

It's a hard choice for me, as I think most of the un-converted models look great, as do many of the conversions that people on this fine website have done. I'll stick to space marines as that is what I have the most experience with.

Personally, I think that Chaplain Grimaldus for the Black Templars is the best looking Space Marine model of any type.



My honorable mention would be the current Chaplain in Terminator Armor. 100% righteous, hardcore, bad-ass, smite-you-in-the-face right there.

It's a toughy, but I'll have to go with the forthcoming Screaming Bell.

An impressive centrepiece for your army, and the sort of model which (combined with the rest of the new Skaven) suggests that the sculptors have finally realised a model can be a work of art as well. Pushes way beyond any other plastic kit in terms of it's animated look. The smoke billowing from the brazier, the demented Grey Seer riding it. To my knowledge, never before have GW managed such a sense 'it's real' with a plastic kit before, and possibly even with their metal.

The only way to improve upon the Khorne Jugger Lord, is to include the Night Gobbo from the 'Animosity' collecters vignetter. The one putting his dukes up. Positioned correctly, you could make him look like the bravest, thickest, most optimistic Gobbo ever born!

Canis is cool! The pussy-cat he rides on however...

Logan Grimnar's got a really nice model on the subject of Space Wolves actually...

Canis Wolfborn


This thread is for the best GW models, you know that right?

Just don't see how anyone can really like that thing, but whatever, that's just my opinion.

They sell well.

But another nomination for me...

Snotling Swarms. Old models, full of character. Absolutely fantastic stuff.

I also really like that Commisar. It's a perfect mix of bravery and ballsy defiance of death.

Has a very "18th-19th Century Duellist" feel to it.

I don't have a picture but the Green Knight is still in my opinion the best Fantasy model in the entire range. Do they even make him anymore?


For 40k forgeworld : ork warboss on bike

40k normal Range : Emperors Champion for Space Marine
Ig : Sgt. Harker
Eldar: Maugen Ra still one of the best

I'm impressed with the model, even more so when you think that the sculptor had his sculpting hand blown off before that and was still learning to sculpt with his off-hand.

That new White Dwarf model with the servo arm is my favourite at the moment. He's so not worth twelve White Dwarf magazines though.

Translation:
Indeed, if I am not mistaken, it is the old commisar-with-boltpistol-and hand-behind-back model. Wow, my attempts at a description could possibly be construed as unfortunate.


Babelfish's attempt:
Old of commisar and boltpistol and hand after the model. Cause the exclamation of the lamè.


Wasnt too hard
On a side note, i think thats a pretty sweet commisar, only surpassed by the Forgeworld commisar (the one executing a fallen soldier)

Haha, no just a misinterpreted phrase. Nothing to get too upset about, but we enjoy pouncing on people for nothing here.
See: The new tyranid model thread, where we kept a simple spelling mistake going for about 3 pages.

My favourite GW model (well FW technically, but I'm sure it'll count) is the Minotaur. Not because its the best looking model, because its not. Nor because its even vaugely useable in game.

No, simply because it is probably the stupidest looking tank possible, with ridiculously large guns that perfectly encapsulate everything that is right (and wrong) with 40k.

I actually like that tank quite a bit, though it happens to be quite a pain to assemble!

I think these threads should have categories.

Its very difficult compare a Chaos Lord of Awesome on an Juggernaut vs some plastic Cold One Knights, but they are both amazing models.

So... what categories?
40k Single Man-sized
--Tough one... If i'm not allowed to vote for FW DKOK Commissar... Emperor's Champion?
40k Single Large (termy or bigger)
--Terminator Chaplain
40k Plastic/troops unit
-- Cadians box. Whilst they're mabye not brilliantly original or heavy with detail, IMO they add an unprecedented level of bits-compatability
40k Metal / Elites unit
-- Grey Knight Terminators
40k Vehicle/Monster
-- tough one...

Fantasy Single Man-sized
-- One of the many Elf lords (Snobby or emo varieties)
Fantasy single large (ogre or bigger)
-- Lord on Juggernaut
Fantasy plastic/troops unit
-- Chaos Warriors?
Fantasy metal/elites unit
-- 6th ed daemonettes, Cold one Knights, Pegasus Knights
Fantasy monster/Chariot/Warmachine
Lord of Change

My personal favorites, in no special order:

1.) Grey Knight Terminators
2.) Black Orcs - definitely my favorite looking troop.
3.) Ork Kommando Nob
4.) SM Chaplain in Terminator Armor
5.) Thunderfire Cannon. Annoying to build but I like it a lot.
6.) Necron Wraiths
7.) Tie between those two new Skaven bosses
8.) Orc Raider with Pig
9.) FW Ork Mega Dread
10.) Chaos Space Marine Lord 2

I thought they were awful when first released. I much preferred the older style with rune covered armour. But they've grown on me a lot since so that I'd happily get a set if I saw them at a sufficiently reduced price.

+1 For Grey Knight terminators and the grand master. They are awesome models and my GM has always made it's first bionic saves in each game, he's a trustworthy bloke to get the job done.
