Solar Macharius Is one of the best models ever! The face, staff and bolt pistol, not to mention the scrollwork on his armour, were years ahead of contemparary GW miniatures (1999). The priest with the improvised club is awesome also. To be fair the male metal wyches are actually pretty good, i suggest you take another look. Having seen those tau honour Guard that come with the IMHO cool mobility scooter dude i may have changed my mind on ugliest miniature but my original pick are these. http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440110a&prodId=prod1550007 I mean how has nobody noticed how S**t these miniatures are!!!! BTW the old plastic gretchin with the pointy hat and blaster is an example of 'good ugly' for those that can't make the distinction.

I actually got some of the Chosen. Without the helmets, they are very, very nice models.
I used them as the basis for my Word Bearer Stormtroopers.
They have really nice armour detail.

@Terrible trygon the second converted guy is cool i'll admit. However, i stand by my decision; the Legs look horribly static and clogged with stupid tabards, a few of the models appear to be wearing steel toe capped Doc martens, the gauntlets aim for the coolness of the warriors but instead resemble oven mits and the it's the same pose on every model. They're like the old onepiece plastic chaos warrior (the one you used to get with the paint set ~1995) but with none of the retro charm....

Yep you'd have to be a fool not to remove the picture and keep commenting on it ^__^ Any way adding to this I've always hated the Daemon hosts .... They just look like the guy squashed what he was doing and was made to finish it.

Looks like you have a bad case of the mad.
Please learn what a internet tough guy is before you call someone it.
It is no use for you to tell someone what to do on a internet message board, if me posting a picture which has already been posted before is a problem i am sure a mod will contact me, but you aren't a mod, hope i didn't upset you :-)

Or even just trying to work out the skeletal structure needed to pull those poses in that armor while having necks coming out of their mid chest. Fantastic.
