Its all about the winged Jump packs I think they would fit well in my existing marine force as well it being all Raven themed.

But its all BA for the wing at the moment with me.

Heresy!!!

These Space Marines have obviously been taking the forbidden Rogaine!!!

Some of them actually have hair!!!

I've never understood why people continually act surprised by this.

We've been getting Marine models with hair since... well, forever, really. Most (not all, see the DA sprue) of the plastics since the RT sprue have been bald, presumably because GW couldn't come up with a decent way of doing hair on plastics that looked reasonable... but there have been a huge number of metal models with hair.

Is it just me, or do the Death Company look a little taller and/or leaner than normal marines? Perhaps they are scaled up a tad? I would really appreciate it if they were...

I will be picking up a box of those Sanguinary Guard though, and promptly breaking it down for parts. Wings for Seraphim, muscled breast plates for Inquisitors, all manner of good stuff in there, except for the rather silly forearm bolters. I think they would have been better to stick with a sleaker GK style than those big things.

I don't think the Death Company are taller, though they do have varients of the SM Assault running legs, which makes the model look a few MM taller and thinner.

And I think I will follow your lead as to the inquisitors being made from the Sanguinary Guard - Great Idea!

Though I understand why they didn't follow the GK style of wrist mounted bolter - if the rumour mill is correct, GK's will get released in plastic soon, and so GW doesn't want to start mixing up styles too much.

On an aside, has anyone had a peek at what the rules are for the two new special characters are? I'd really, really be interested.

So is thier going to be a kit like the Space Wolves pack or is it going to be more like the Black Templar kit?.... kinda feel like I'm missing something T.T

The Elite armour with the nipples makes me wanna make a 300 army with them holding spears and shields. This is SPARTA!!!!

I don't even play blood angels and I have to admit this stuff looks amazing.

Predator with remodelled sponsons that look sturdy? sign me up, I'll just convert the autocannon (flamestorm cannon looks boss)

Sanguinary guard? if nothing else its awesome helmets for sculpture plating on my landraiders and arm mounted bolters for sternguard. So, definently getting a box at some point.

Seth? sweet god emperor, only way that model could be better is if the wings on the backpack are a seperate bit. Bit of conversion work and you have a captain with a relic blade chainsword.

Very excited for these new releases! And thank god they gave lemartes a resculpt.

that new lmartes model is awesome i think, i was going to avoid doing this army but i'm soo temted now. whats the fluff behind sanguinor and astaroth? i'm guessing they're like flip sides of the rage malarky

Still trying to decide if I like the wings or not. I'll be picking up Astorath reguardless, he will fit in nicley with the models I already have.

One Question: What is the Bit numbered 60 here :

i believe its the left hand that matches the thunder hammer as in the pic of the completed model its holding it in 2 hands

That's it; Nice.

Flame Storm Cannon = Good
Flame Storm Cannon on A Pred = Really Good
Now If they keep the Baal upgrades we have
Flamestorm Cannon on a Pred moving 12 and still shooting. This = AWSOME
