ForgeWorld MKVIII 'Errant' Armour, do you want it???
YES, I want/would buy MKVIII Errant Armour from FW
NO, the plastic torso is more than enough if I want MKVIII
Abstain, because I don't play 40K or SM

I'd be interested if MK VIII was in plastic.

Otherwise no.

1) Anubis is my favorite Egyptian deity (yes, I have a favorite Egyptian deity).

2) MKVIII is my favorite mark of Marine Power Armor.

As a separate kit than a Deathwatch one? Yes, but only in plastic.

Forget old marines, the future is primaris. Mk8 is history. It’s all mk10 now.

There is no option for 'true' MKVIII yet - not even from FW.

Is there?

The Deathwatch Veterans have Mk.VIII.

Bore off. This is a poll about wanting mk8 armour from FW. Not a place for primaris propaganda.

There are lots of us who still want regular marine stuff, not chunky ugly primaris.

No, primaris all the way. Be happy if nothing new was released for old marines. I’d like to see forgeworld start making some primaris upgrades kits.

But this is a poll about FW mk8 errant armour son, your ugly primaris are irrelevant.

You are going to be unhappy in the future because FW are still turning out a nice amount of old marines and its likely there will be a series 3 of the space marine heroes at least from the studio

None of the above. Yes I want Mk VIII, but I want it in GW plastic.

With the Rise of the Primaris marines and MKX armor, I'm afraid that IF we ever see MKVIII, it will be via FW and not GW proper via plastic.

Are the Deathwatch minis not wearing Mk VIII? Inquisitorial trappings, but I thought that's what it was.

When I think of the original MKVIII, i immediately think of Grey Knights. Therefore to me it should fall under the umbrella of Artificer Armor. I think that adoption of Mk8 into the general chapters (even if only for squad leaders) makes it more commonplace, therefore diminishes the distinctive armor style away from the GK. The new Primaris armor except for the helmet reminds me of a Breacher version of Mk8. But Primaris armor also rips off attributes from GK terminator armor as you can see with the P-Aggressors. Which again diminishes the Grey Knights. Next thing you will be seeing is the Primaris using nemesis weapons. Then that would make the GKs totally superfluous.

I just use Deathwatch kits to make MKVIII sets, which I use for the Forlorn Hope's entry teams.


If the truth were subjective then the majority would always be right.

I'm torn, on the one hand, the Mark VIII Errant armor is my favourite SM armour, (followed closely by the Corvus armour). However, FW is really expensive and I probably wouldn't buy it. If it came out in plastic from GW, hell yeah I'd get a box or two, but it'd be a bit too pricy for me to justify when I have so many marines already. Maybe I'd get one kit.
