Pariahs. There fluff is great, but the execution in gameplay... They could be brilliant with a few modifications.

CREEEEEEEED and Kell CCS! Simply for epicness on the table. Creed's fluff isn't too bad either.

Khornes greater daemon from FW.

The FW Keeper of Secrets. IMO nothing looks more unholy and daemonic than this.

.

Kasrkins... By far the coolest miniatures in the game and great fluff

In my opinion anyway

Shas'O, as having a Weapon skill of 4 really does make a difference (I'm looking at you "sweeping advanced" squads of gaunts and guardsmen)

The CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT is the greatest unit in the entire game and the only thing capable of transporting DOOMBREAD without running the risk of a DOOMPICNIC occuring.

Okay, I know it's a meme...but how long is it gonna last?

On topic, I love daemon princes. Just...something about them. I just bought my 6th one today (2 slaanesh, 1 khorne, 1 tzeentch, 1 nurgle, 4 of these are converted). The new one today is the only plastic one. Not sure which paintjob to give him, but I'm thinking another Slaanesh prince

The Chaos Daemon Prince sure is pretty

Either the Khrone Berzerkers or the Plauge marines.
Probably the Plauge marines because of the third guy on the left. His gasmask looks EPIC



Squad of Plague marines is going to be my next buy

My favorite unit has to be Space Marine bikers, with a Chaplain riding alongside them preaching righteous hatred.

Nob bikerz, favorite single character is Kharn the story of him killing other berserkers in the codex is awesome.

Broadside Battlesuit. Nothing like replacing your hands with smart missiles and attaching a strength 10 solid laser to your shoulder.

Probably a toss-up between Hellions and Incubi. The idea of Hellions is too cool and Incubi look like badass wrapped in pointyness.

Forever and ever and ever and ever... and ever.

I love the forge world chaos ogryns that come in two flavors:

Orgyn bersekers (ogryns on majorly nasty combat drugs who dish out some serious pain, and the drugs eventually burn them out)
Plague Ogryns (ogryns dedicated to nurgle)

Both units have feel no pain and d6 attacks in close combat. No ranged weapons at all, but they are just a lot of fun to see my opponent freak out about. Last game I played I had a unit of 3 plague ogryns and they soaked the fire from about 4 or 5 units for about 3+ turns before finally being destroyed. Silly Tau. Meanwhile my plauge marines and plague terminators were able to crunch into the tau battle line without much of any scratches on their armor. All because of those 3 scary lookikng plague ogryns that never got even remotely close to any unit to attack it in hand to hand. Hahahaha

Skriker

Tyranid Raveners, I just love the look of those things. If I ever started a Tyranid army, I'd have tons of them, without even considering the rules or fluff.

Prob commissar yarrick cuz if he's well painted he looks awesome, he's a beast, and cuz i play IG steel legion

Definitely the Commissar.

This picture sold me on them:


Basically the epitome of humanity. They kill aliens and doesn't afraid of anything.

Well i have to say the KFF mek, not only does he keep some of my vehicles from going boom but he just looks sweet!

Why is the Commissar leading space marines

Because the RT era was a strange, strange time.

Not actually "leading" them, more like fighting alongside them.
Also, because that's how badass Commissars are.

What's my favorite 40k miniature? I don't tend to have one particular favorite. I don't even have an army that remains favorite all the time.

But if I had to pick one, right now...

Either the Sister of Battle with meltagun and respirator, due to her pose - she's like... well, it's hard to describe, but the best I can do in my sleepy mind and heat-induced mind muddle is, "Come on, bring it, just a little closer before I can melt you, then BAM!"

Or the Retributor with heavy bolter, because of her headgear - nifty stuff! - and also because of the whole, "Woman with machine gun," thing.

Sisters of battle are nice, are they a lot of points?

believe it or not I think my favorite unit fluff wise is Imperial Guard Soldiers (Veterans, Regulers, and Whiteshields). Just imagine being this guy:



Or one of those Vostryans[?] 'down there':



I could go on and on, but I doubt any of us have the time, so...

And my favorite tabletop unit is Tactical Marines. They got a lot of firepower (disagree? try playing Imperial Guard once in a while, WITHOUT Tanks and those other gubbinz) with their bolters to begin with, and can also become proficient with other combat duties in a pinch, such as the 5 point lascannon and free flamer.

Wolf Lods are my favorite. Give them Warrior Born and send them into infantry. They get more and more attacks as they go!

SAG mek. *rolls dice* everything under the template is gone.
*rolls dice* alright, where does it ACTUALLY hit *hands template to opponent *

I like the Hive Tyrant , look awesome and can eff up whatever you really need it to, all while keeping your gaunts and fexs in check.
