God Dammit. You all should know I rarely bother to check what I do, so when I write something lame, I just say what I said was lame, instead of getting rid of it. Sorry Picard.

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!

Something is was looking at the other day, was the Ork Runthereder from the gretchin kit. Although it may be plastic, its a wondeful model, really filled with character

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

Nah, not really, if you've got several favourites put 'em all down! Oh, Forge World models are allowed.

My personal favorites, in no special order:

7.) Tie between those two new Skaven bosses
8.) Orc Raider with Pig
9.) FW Ork Mega Dread
10.) Chaos Space Marine Lord 2
