With the thread about the new league vehicle asking the question is it the best kit ever of a vehicle I thought I’d ask what peoples faves are. No criteria, just 40k vehicle kits past and present.

My choices would be either the stompa or the baneblade, can’t decide. Both were kits I had home made years ago and to get official beautifully detailed plastic models of them was an absolute joy. There are tonnes of great vehicles out there but these two have a soft spot in my heart for sure.

Like I said in the other thread, my favorite is the box style Dreadnought (whatever it's in-game designation is).
And a real close 2nd is the Thunderbolt fighter.

Tau manta.

Do like me a boxy dread. They blew me away when they first came out. The only thunderbolts I have are AA but I do plan to change that soon. It’s such a 40k looking plane.

Big choice. BIG. do you have one?

I really like the the Horus heresy Kratos.
Each gun looks very cool and I like the shape of the turret, sponsons, the tracks. Very close are the Sicarans, I am so eager for the plastic release!
A big contender are the Warglaives, I had so much fun building and painting them.

Marauder Destroyer for me. Actually looks somewhat functional (although the fact that it just has ramjets is odd) and pretty deadly as well.

Onager dunecrawler

But the GSC Ridgerunner is quickly getting close to it

The box dread is OG 40K and not much can beat it. Even the lore is an exemplar of what 40K is. Can’t believe they replaced it with that primaris walker thing

Adding another vote for the box dread. Ultramarines paint scheme, red assault cannon and a power fist. Awesome model.

just finished one of my fav models, miss squiggly says hi. its part monstrous creature but has the howda so... tank on a creature? chariot?

Twin autocanon dreadnought.

Agreed, the new Heresy vehicles are hitting it out of the park, I can't wait for the new land raider.

the Imperial Knight, gorgous model.

I've really enjoyed the knight kits, they are really fun to work on.

My harlequins vehicles are not terribly exciting.

I really like the new primaris vehicles, the Stormspeeder and Gladiator. The gladiator especially I really enjoyed building and painting.

I just really don't like the gw flying stands with the ball joints, they just can never hold the model properly, but the flying stand on the gladiator is great!

Count me in for another vote on the Boxnaught. Bonus points for mentioning the UM paint scheme in the 90's. That's the model that brought me into 40K.

+1 for the angry washing machine.

Also the Land Raider.

Both of these are iconic 40k IMHO.

Either the Reaver titan or the old Mars-pattern Baneblade.

The amount of love for the boxy dreads is a pleasant surprise. I think they lost their way with the venerable ones and how fancy they got. The old school simple ones were ace. I was looking at the catalogue pages in my old second edition angels of death codex at the just the other day. The old metal ones could smash a whole army if dropped at the wrong time.

What are those new fangled round vases they are on!!!!!

Vyper Jetbike.

Sure, I think it’s now the oldest remaining 40K vehicle kit (unless the Falcon predates? It was a long time ago!). And whilst it shows it’s age when being assembled (lots of empty sprue space, joining points which are quite right)….

Once assembled and painted? It still looks the part. It looks sleek, nimble and despite carrying a heavy weapon, doesn’t look over gunned.

I think the Vyper was before the Falcon, but there wasn't much in it either way.

Given it was a vehicle when it was released, the Jetbike still ridden by the Autarch Skyrunner is probably the oldest vehicle kit in the range that has not seen any gaps in production.

I think the Space Marine bike predates the Jetbike? Again, not by a huge amount. Let me check my Codex Ultramarines. If that has a piccie of the Marine Bike, it’s the oldest in constant production.

Nope, no piccies of the bike in Codex Ultramarines.

The SM bikes got updated at some point (not sure when, I'd say circa 5th edition) to give the rider's the ball and socket joint of the SM torsos at the time. It's not the same sprue as when it first came out.



This is the current sprue.



The OG sprue.

I was going to bring up the SM bike, but there was something in the back of my head saying that it got redone - looks like that little voice was right

The valkyrie bar none.

As for the order of release, the Vyper was introduced in WD207 alongside the SM Attack Bike, the Falcon in 216, and the Fire Prism in 219. The normal Bikes must have been before the Attack Bike, although I can't find the WD at the moment.

I don't know how well known it is, but there were actually two SM bike styles before the plastic one. A sort of klunky, spiky one, and then a slimmer one with wings.

I like the eldar vyper a lot but I think my favourite has to be the Ork dreadnought from 2nd edition ( the one the cardboard cutout in the boxed game represented).

There’s a nice image of it in the Dakka gallery:

I would hope so. The FW knights have shown how to do it properly and the static leg poses completely ruin the model IMO. It's the biggest reason why I'll never build a knight army.

This:


Also the Land Raider, only thing in 40k that I've ever bought one of by accident.

Dark Eldar raider, run a close second by the Forgeworld Tantalus... both look the part - sleek fast, brittle......

I’m on the Vyper bandwagon Definitely.

Close joint second for me go to the FW Hornet, and the humble Predator. I’ve always liked how the marine rhino chassis stuff actually looked like a family of vehicles trading certain aspects off to focus on other aspects.

When people say land raider or predator, which version do they mean, I prefer 1st edition predator over 2nd and 3rd edition. Land raider the current kit is a fave but the new upcoming version of the original is going to give it a run for its money.

Nightwing, Decimator, and Hellblade.

Goliath Truck/Rockgrinder. It's such a nice kit to build and the model itself is brilliant both on its own and as a basis for Mad Max shenanigans.

I liked having one in my army, I enjoyed how much it annoyed my mate who could not kill it. But hated painting it. HATED. And building wasn’t much fun. Once it was built and painted, very nice. The new is a hell of a build and paint model though. Enjoyed that a lot.

Honestly I love the original Land Raider. It's got some of that classic sci-fi strangeness about it, like part moon rover, part tank. Once it's had a little extra love put into it I prefer it over the redux. Both are fantastic.

Where is that Melta Turret from?

Andykp wrote:

In Epic Armageddon they were actually really good, iirc.

I sometimes ran an army with 4 in it during 4th edition. Massive skew list obviously, but sometimes it worked real well because anything under S8 couldnt hurt the army (I could put everything else in the army into the LRs).

Custom build using the Melta bit from the old Sisters Immolator, I think.

The Armored proteus is my favorite land raider variant, chonky, intimidating

Penitent Engines! Nail some guy into a gigantic torture device, hand him a buzzsaw, and send him towards the enemy? Just amazing!

But as we seem to be going more tank-y, I'd probably have to say the Megatrakk Scrapjet. That thing is just bad-arse!

Shame I can't go with any other Sisters tanks. Even with considerable bling, the Rhino chassis remains a potato.

Don't troll Ebay while drunk....

Do Kastellan Robots count? If not, the Skaven Doomwheel.

The Deathwatch Corvus Blackstar is by far my most beloved vehicle model.

Followed very closely by the Land Raider.

I have a thing for pitifully armed vehicles I guess.

Eldar Jetbikes were released in plastic (they had metal models earlier) in WD178 at the same time as the Leman Russ tank. The plastic SM bike was was released in WD201.

My favourite vehicle was the plastic dreadnoughts that came after the metal ones. Those metal ones literally fell apart under their own weight.

BrianDavion wrote:

Once upon a time, in the long long ago, back before the Great GW Embargo, us Aussies were able to order from overseas. And so we did, seeking out the best prices, which was usually the UK, because their prices were literally half ours (after currency conversion).

One such place was Maelstrom Games, who discounted everything as well. Paying UK retail would'a been fine, but they took even more off. Getting things for 35-45% the cost of buying it in Oz was fantastic. Additionally, they had a scaling discount system, so the more you purchased, the higher the discount got. Maelstrom, I believe, eventually morphed into Mierce Miniatures I through some weirdness and some level of shadiness - but by then we couldn't order from them anyway so I stopped paying attention - but they did one other thing that made them the store of choice: Free shipping on all orders, regardless of size! So half the price of Oz, plus discounts, and free shipping? Why would I order anywhere else?

So I was putting together an order, as part of a sale, and it said if I added a certain amount more the discount would be higher. I didn't think it would work given I was using a discount code for the sale, but tested it out just to see. It didn't work, so I went back, finished what I was doing, and completed the order. What I forgot was that I had added a Land Raider as part of that price test, but forgot to remove it! So I got the confirmation, and, well, I accidentally a whole Land Raider!

This was part three of my "3 Things that Show You Have Too Much Stuff" proof:

1. Sit down to make 20 Beakie Assault Marines and somehow end up with 30.
2. Purchase something but lose it for long enough to be convinced that maybe you only thought you bought it.
3. Accidentally buy a Land Raider.

Did all three...

I might actually have to say the Tau Hammerhead. I like how it looks sleek and futuristic as a total opposite of all the chunky boxiness of Imperial vehicles. That being said, I also love the Sicaran. I can't wait for the plastic kit to come out so I can finally get one.

I second the Valkyrie

Hard to beat so I'll second this and add rogue trader land raider.

Also wtf does exalting even do? Been here for years never seen any type of like count.. ?

I don't even like Eldar as a faction or a people, but Vyper and Falcon. It's insane that models like that were even made before CAD.

Drukhari Ravager and the Leman Russ.

Penitent engine is fine, you don’t have to go tanks, it seems like boxy dreads are coming out with a lot of votes. I am loving the variety of vehicles people are choosing, some I would never have thought would be peoples favourites.

I have a soft spot for most Ork vehicles, but the Deff Dread is the quintessential Ork vehicle for me. Such a good looking model.

I'd also say the old box Dreadnought is a close second.

Box dread (especially the FW Nurgle Variants)

Defiler

Leman Russ

Those three still look great, are iconic to the setting and there hasn't really been better looking vehicles in 40K proper.

If we add 30K I'd say the Leviathan and Thanatar Siege Automata (not really sure if it's a vehicle ). Those two are my favourite big stompy robots and look much better than Knights.

Lynx, Warp Hunter and Phantom Titan. If we add 30k, then Triaros.

All in all, Forgeworld vehicles have so much better design. Even so cosmetic changes like „Type II” kits for Eldar tanks make so much difference. This is most annoying with Falcon and Wave Serpent turrets, because there is no good reason why „Type II” turrets could’t be the basic version.

Some old school box dreadnought porn for the lovers out there.

I do have a soft spot for old boxnauts -- but specifically the Ironclad.

If I had to pick just ONE favorite vehicle of all time, though. . . I guess I'd have to go with the Cerastus Knight Atrapos. There's just something so menacing about it. It doesn't have the "knightly" look of the other cerastus knights--more rounded and sleek, but almost alien at the same time.

Box Dreadnoughts confuse me.

Not a fan of the plastic one. But the metal one? Love it.

They're basically identical except the plastic one has a much inferior auto-launcher. I found some of the metal ones for my plastic nauts to fix that grevious error.

I think it’s equal parts the nostalgic and satisfying heft of the metal version, and the kind of disappointing and boring to build plastic kit.

The Venerable Dread is much nice, and suits plastic.

I put in a shout out to the Exorcist earlier, but the truth is it's really hard to pick- I like so many!

I've seen a couple votes for the Valkyrie, which I LOVE, but I also wanted to say that if FW still made the six-wheeled Elysian buggy that they Skytalon variant was made to carry, the pair would be my fave. But without that buggy, there is very little use for the Skytalon- I've asked before if there's anything else in the range it would look good carrying, and I don't think there were any really good responses.

Forgeworld also unlocks the Kharon Pattern Acquisitor, which is just the creepiest thing GW has ever made. I really wanted 40k rules for it.

That acquisitor thing looks so appropriate for what it’s supposed to be, but other than that doesn’t appeal too much. The Valkyrie is an underrated model too. You’re right, there are so many good kits. I keep agreeing with people but forgetting I’ve made my choices already.

The Land Raider. Simply iconic. You can keep all the fancy Marine floating tanks and flying boxes that came afterr, nothing is as cool as a Land Raider.

Although Defilers are cool.

Eldar Scorpions is my favorite vehicle. I just wish it was more usable in the game

I vote either Baneblade, Valkyrie or the Imperial knight models. The baneblade is what ever tank aspires to be. The valk is an excellent model that looks like it would actually work irl. The knight finally isa great model to build and looks really imposing.

I too shall vote boxy dread, or the humble 2001 Rhino just from a customization and assembly ease.
Half of my rhino/variant models aren't even fully glued or magnetized together, the floor and inner crew compartment walls are as well as the track segments; but everything else from the side hulls, top hull/track guard, turret ring plate, and cockpit glacis plate are just snugly snap fitted or sitting on top of the rest. The parts are simple enough that personalize between factions means changing a paint job and slapping some extra bits on it, instead of filing off details baked into the core parts.

I like a lot of them but I was most disappointed in the new primaris vehicles hoverin? Come on hovering is just bad for space marines outside of maybe bikes

This is a tough one. I'm torn between the Land Raider and the Dreadnought.

I think I have to go Dreadnought.

As a 12 year old I made an awful paper and card one from a white dwarf article, made another later in my teens that was pretty good, bought the forgeworld one and realised how annoying resin could be. Then the plastic beauty came out and I was in heaven. LOVE IT. (Had three at one point) down to one now, but need a shadow sword as well.

i really like land raiders, but i personally think the deimos pattern predator looks better... never owned one though, probably rectifying that soon as it goes into plastic.

However, my bsolute favourite is the malcador.

i don't know why, but i just like it, riveted armor, outlying fuel and trench crossing help, the turret has just something menancing to it.

shame it is fw and resin though .

My favorite is the neat little vehicle that has been serving as my (now nurglefied) avatar for over a decade.

It was one of the reasons for me to start 40k, and it's still one of my favorite models off all time. Some of the newer vehicles like buggies or the PBC have matched or supassed it in terms of looks and ease to build, but it's modularity is unmatched.

In terms of original Rogue Trader vehicles?



The metal Ork Buggy.

It is wildly out of scale? Yes.

Not just by modern standards but even when it came out, wildly out of scale? Of course.

Is it a fantastically Orky design? 100%

It’s just so stripped down. And ludicrously overgunned. It’s thrown together with only those two considerations in mind. And being so low to the ground, any speed is gonna feel that much faster.

The driver gets to go fasta dan fast, and the gunner gets to be all shooty. They don’t need anymore.

I'll add my vote to the Valkyrie. Such an impressive, solid kit, excellent update of its FW predecessor, easy to build, not too fiddly to transport (looking at you, Archaeopter), lovely interior detail.

Honorable mentions have to be the current (second) Land Raider, which was a massive step up compared to RT/2e plastics, the Baneblade and the Imperial Knight. And I know I might be alone on this, but I also love the Leman Russ.

Bad year tyres too. All the ork vehicles from then appeared you to be piloted by juvenile orks. When 3rd came out and orks changed I had to get rid of the lot. So wish I’d kept it all.

I imagine those pictures are posted in ascending order how much of a pain they are to put together.

Gah, so many it's hard to choose.

Guess I'd have to go with Land Raider. And the original at that.

Adding to this thread again, another vote for the Valk. Brilliant model, but I regret not buying the Elysian upgrade while it was available.

No accounting for taste with the Mastadon...

Im the same in that thing, it’s like a brick with guns. Which is why some like I suppose but it’s not for me. I can’t seem to like any of the 30k tanks that aren’t based on stuff I know from old 40k. None of them feel right to me. That said, neither do tau.

personally i like the razorback from 3rd edition with a manned turret so much more than the modern version.

i wish they'd bring that back in full plastic.

also i like the same era of rhino better than the modern rhino.
