I don't really like him honestly. I'm not sold on the pose, I think MkIV would've been better armour, and the head definitely needs swapping. The detail is lovely though, can't fault that at all.

Been waiting for him (already got Pollux) but he really doesn't do it for me. Pollux is better. Here is hoping Dorn looks the nuts. Disappointed :-(

Well, I really like him. Also, only just noticed that they're supplying him with a 32mm base - after checking the other models in the character series, looks like Kharn was the last one to come on a 25mm base.

Needs black armour. That said, I'm now torn between the standard Emperor's Champion and him for my GK Briotherhood Champion.

Then I saw the price and I can get along with fiencast

Is he almost as tall as the new Warlord on that base?!?

Nice looking mini!

Maybe this is stupid thing to ask: But when will Guilliman be awalible for purchase? I saw handfull of photoes of painted Guilliman by various artists, where did they get him?

He was available at the WHW opening weekend. He should be available to order soon (I did think today, maybe next week).

Yeah, they'll probably release Guilliman pretty soon and the Warlord not long after that. I did get the impression that as the Warlord is such a huge kit, they were struggling to get it casted for the opening of WHW, so I wouldnt be surprised if they're still working through the backlog of orders they took then.

Yay!

Mine will have more black and white on him, of course!

High Marshal Sigismund!

Who wears silver helmets like the one by his feet?

Iron Warriors of course

There, I said it.

I do too. Especially that episode where he usurps Optimus Prime and takes control of the Ark... unless that isn't what you meant. The chaos spikey big moster robots though not so much. I do however like the possessed style that FW is with the serrated sun chapter and to a lesser extent the chaos marines in the current starter. I was ok with the spikes and skulls up until recently though and even had a chaos army back in third edition but I'd never restart it with the aesthetic cranked up to 11 like it is now with the larger plastic kits. I'm not a fan of the new plastic dreads (starter and independent kit) nor the helldrake. If I were to start another 500pt ally force (I sold my old stuff), it would likely be mostly FW with a daemon prince at the lead.

... oh.

Duh.

I don't recall him fighting Iron Warriors in the books, yet. He wasn't at Phall or Isstvan.

And you call yourself an Imperial Fists fan?!?

I think for the loyalist HH characters that didn't undergo such radical changes and start sprouting horns and spikes that they're likely just doing a single version regardless of how slow the plot is advancing in the novels and to a lesser extent the FW books.

Terra. He was supreme commander of Loyalist forces while Emperor, Dorn and Sanguinius assaulted Horus' command ship. The Iron Warriors were on Terra as well, specifically to break the defences.

£45 seems a lot for one guy in power armour! Are his rules crazy overpowered or something?

You're paying £25 for Sigismund and another £20 for the giant lump of resin he's standing on lol.

So it's future Sigismund! That's even sweeter!

I just like my minis to portray something that's happened! The Battle of Terra hasn't happened yet!

Sure it did!

10,000 years ago....er...

There is only 30k and the Heresy! There is no 40k!

Could well be a yellow helmet that all the paint has burnt off of. The rest of the junk he's standing on all looks pretty charred. Or could be the FW painter just thought it would look good and didn't consider the "historical accuracy" of their actions.

It's definitely an IW, the Sicaran he's stood on the wreckage of is the same colour. I wager it was just chosen because they're like iconic enemies. Either that or it's at the Siege of Terra (I'm guessing the White Scar on Sevatars base is from the siege, I can't remember the NL and WS fighting before then).

I hope that they end up doing a Siege of Terra version, all decked out in black armour and with a helmet.

I agree that it is quite pricey, that may be the 'collectable miniature' aspect that kirby has been insisting is the only reason we buy the models.

That said, it's a nice looking model and the scenic base which his already scenic base fits into is a big chunk of sicarian battletank!
It's worth a look at all the pictures is what i'm saying, i suppose.

Yeah but all the other characters have a scenic base within a scenic base and are equally nice, and yet they're £14 cheaper.

Could be they just want more cash (well obviously although FW does not normally go for such large jumps),

but it may also be that this one is a mould wrecker and it's going to be much more expensive to produce

I like the base its nice to see desrtoyed tanks as well as dead legionarys.
The head... why... there's just somthing wrong about it.

That would be sweet.

I do really like this model though, even if he's in my least favorite Mk of armor.

Less... lack of bling? That's what you're referring to, right?

I really like the model and the pose ... but the price hike for such a non-primarch character model gets a big dislike from me ...
