What is the single most cool model in 40k? Can be forge world as well. I know the DE and new DoC will get some mentions. Personally think that the An'ggrath (aka the forge world bloodthirster) is the best.

Hector Rex.

Doom rider

because doom rider.

I have to go with the Valkyrie, to be honest. I love it. It's an awful design and it would never fly, but I can't help it anyway.

Sergeant Kallistus, limited run in 2004, part of the Space Marine Army Box.

If we're going for current models though:

Someone's bound to mention the Terminator Chaplain... I don't even need to put his pic up, you know who I mean.
I have a soft spot for this guy, and hope to pick one up sooner or later...

Personally, I'm a bit of a fanboy of the Decimator daemon engine. Its basically what it should be ie. a big, badass, eviller dreadnought, and whats not to love about that??

Talos pain engine.

Also a huge fanboy of the Nurgle greater daemon from FW, and the herald and DP from the same.

Afromarine is definitly the coolest model ever!

I agree with Hector Rex. Pure win.

CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT

Ok, fine. Hes actually just an O so Radical Inquisitor.

This guy, limited edition Forgeworld model for 2013. So cool I re-did my Grey Knights Inquisitor list to include it as an Ordo Heriticus Inquisitor, my new second HQ.

I've seen this mini IRL and it's epic. The Termie Chaplain is definitely up there though too.

Afromarine has my vote.

This model is ace's, Chief Librarian Sevrin Loth

Tyberos the Red Wake is pretty awesome.

Know what the shocking thing about that model is?

Its got very few skulls.

This is how I feel about Hector Rex. The Thunderchicken is way cooler!

Yeah I love the GD hes so...disgusting but awesome at the same time!

Interrogator Chaplain Seraphicus. I was so happy when I got Dark Vengeance.

Agreed. Although the Terminator Chaplain is pretty sweet too.

Forgeworld Keeper of Secrets. Really the only reason I want a Slaanesh army

Yes he is I want to get one for my deathwing so he can lead them in!!


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Lucius the eternal is pretty cool as well.

I'm still a big fan of Sammaels jetbike - even though I dont collect DA i think it's a really nice model.

Could it have anything to do with the twin bolters and plasma cannon mounted on the jetbike as well as a big choppy power weapon?

Sly Marbo.
He just doesn't get noticed, because he is behind you, and you can't admire him that way.

Ii think the humble lictor model is pretty ace actually.

I really like the death leaper and the New Farsight model

Dark Eldar

DW Knights. I love their shields.

Gotta go with the Asterion Moloc Model from the Badab War, reminds me of ancient warriors, with techno-bling

Screw spacemarines, Dark Eldar, especialy if painted by a master, are amongst the best that GW has ever produced

When I was looking at Daemon allies, I was a few clicks away from buying one of these. I love it!

Space Wolves TWC and WL on Thunderwolf.
What? Didn't you think I choose Wolves 'cause I love IRL wolves?

Or the Minotaurs Chapter Master, now I don't remember his name, but his FW miniature is fantastic.

Id have to agree with an earlier post. Doom rider.

Carrying on the Marine theme



And some Xenos



Nothing beats the tickle monster

I still like the Terminator Captain:

I really like the Thunderfire cannon with the techmarine

The Forgeworld Lucius-Pattern Baneblade.

The plastic modern one is good, but a bit too rivety and church-y, the old Forgeworld one breaths "I am about to wreck you."

Always been a fan of the trygon. Seen some excellent conversions with the model as well.

Chaos Warhound Titan!




Or IG Segway.

Two words for you guys:

ORK. PIRATE.

Many cool ones, but avatar est omen and thus in my lack of originality I think I have to go with the Terminator Chaplain

the Reaver Titan, both chaos and loyalist. The forgeworld blood thirster....tyranid trygon, hierophant....there are so many amaZng models that ill probably never get around to buying. (Though I do have a nid army featuring trygons)

The top left sternguard veteran has always oozed awesome to me.

Da Stompa!!!!!

Don't know why but I love the Blue Scribes. Just gibbering madness on a plate....

Far right. ORKZ IS MADE FER ROKIN!

Yeah, I instantly liked the model as well. Though funnily at least my copy - metal, got the last box from the LGS for a mere(?) 15€ - has his boltgun bent, and being metal i find it basically impossible to straighten the entire gun. As such I made up a piece of fluff where he ran out of ammo and had to use it as a club along with his power fist, and it was kinda permanently bent after that to commemorate the battle I still haven't painted the bugger, though, as I don't have the tools to properly "trim" medal models.

Heh, I think the Sternguard might be the only thing that I want in finecast... so I can replace their bolters with Anvil Industries combi-carbines. X

My vote would be for the Orked-up, scratchbuilt Optimus Prime that actually transforms, but if we're talking official models, I have to go with the Death Korps Kommissar as well. It's the only Forge World model I own. The Stompa is way up there too, and the Talos Pain Engine almost made me start a Dark Eldar army.

Both hierodules, hierophant, harridan and the hydracast tervigon

Thats a damn fine conversion of doom rider!

However my vote goes to this vet model!

I painted a Badrukk recently. He's a really fun model to work on and looks damn snazzy. Shame he's a Flash Gitz upgrade, but makes a great "counts as".

I'm not a fan of the gray knights really, or many of their models. But this is pretty awesome.

I bought HeavyBolters GK Dread Knight it was so cool.

You should try to convert him into captin bludflag from DoW that would be so cool!

Best model in the game IMO.

Helldrakes are hella sexy.

I painted a BW as Optimus prime

Coolest model will have to go for the DV Chaos Lord, best CSM lord I saw and if you place Possessed wings on the back instead of his Backpack he looks even more badass

Relevant.

2 thumbs up to Orcimus Prime.

I want to hug that model... hope it blows up a Riptide show the true meaning of big robots to those pesky Tau .

On a side note the Riptide is pretty cool as well .

I dunno about individual models, but DE get my vote for best-looking army. I can't think of a single model that I don't like.

the doomrider is cool but Cypher is still the man.

I got back into Warhammer because of this model :-

I loved this model from the moment it first appeared. I just recently got one to use as a Herald in my Daemon army. Pity my Seekers keep getting wiped out pretty much immediately...

I've gotta say, I think the Cataphractii Terminators are by and far the coolest models GW have ever put out.

Though the FW Greater Daemons are all fantastic as well.

The good old basic assault cannon/CCW Dreadnaught.

It is literally the model that got me looking into 40k's lore and a deciding factor on my choice of army (SMs get Dreadnaughts? Oh hell yeah!)

The Scourges are extremely cool (the mane reason why I started DE); also, I really like the Riptide and, for some reason, the Red Terror. Not really sure why.

scottmmmm wrote:

Yeah, I was looking for this model in this thread.

The Dark Eldar Lhamaean is one sexy model that I would definitely use if I played Dark Eldar. Not as a Lhamaean, but as a female Archon.



Also, Incubi.



On the Orky side of things, I really love the look of the FW Megadread, Grot Mega Tank, Kill Krusha, and Battle Fortress.

Contemptor Dreadnaught

Looks like what an armored Space Marine, on life-support and without any loss of combat effectiveness should look like. Wish there were cheaper versions.

The Tartatos Terminators are also pretty sweet, what with looking like baby Contemptors.

Spoiler:

Agreed, as well as...

Hellions, Reavers and Scourges definitely get my vote. Reavers are at the top of my list. The Dark Eldar Fast attack options are the most beautiful models of all

Gotta say the Valkyrie, great model to put together and looks so damn sexy when it's done.

I agree. Games Workshop might make an idiot of themselves sometimes, but they really got the design of the Dark Eldar release right. It's a brilliant army to look at.
