he's so awsome the gun just fires on command?

Isn't that silver part the arrow is pointing at the handle?

Too many to even think about! But in a snap decision I decided on this one, it's a RT ear Chaos Terminator. I have 5 of them. The two profiled here are of course World Eaters and Death Guard.



I also have one in my Iron Warriors, my Dark Lords, and one in the bitz box in case I need it for something later.

No, someone's painted the front of his pouch silver to look like a grip.

I have these guys and the old Inquisitor in Terminator Armour, fantastic minis.

I know that the new models generally look much better than the old ones, but there's something about the old ones that just, I dunno, really appeal to me. They feel more alive, the new ones have less soul too me, they are just sculpted to look cool, but the old ones were dynamic.

Pretty much everyone on this page, the only guy I really didn't like was the Ultramarines dude.

Ahh, the days when Primarchs still walked around and were only commanders

OOP devastators had laser sighted assault cannons, and all their other heavy weapons (multimelta, heavy bolter, etc) were shoulder mounted.

I used to Have a Russ mini... I now have the wolves but not sure where the actual figure has gone. Same for my Space Wolf captain. He is MIA. But I still have the captain with Terminator Honours and the Vet Captain with the Cybernetic Leg. Use them in my current army. The Teminator Honours captain is a nice, clean mine with a good presence.

I have always liked that Captain with Terminator Honours, a brilliant model for Imperial fists or Crimson Fists or even an Honour Guard. I've got one and put that Eagle Headed backpack on it, with a Green stuff Cloak. Simple, Regal, Imperial and not too fussy!

Yeah these dudes

I love these guys too!

I love the old dark angels commander!
come to think of it the ultramarine one was also really good!
no i'm not your typical ultramarine hater!

I am not sure if he is officially OOP or not (but I first saw the figure 10 years ago so I would have to imagine it is) but I used to love the look of the Space Wolf Rune Priest in Terminator Armor

I have the oop metal standard bearer. The one with the messed up scale.
I'll go look for a pic

You need to check out this thread where i started an Argument about the Bolter, it resulted in me creating the UZIEL PATTERN BOLTER... and yeah i got lazy and started this thread off the back of it!

These aren't that old (3rd edition, Wave 1), but they mesh nicely with the new models. My favourites from this discontinued box are the vet sgt with auspex and the techmarine.



I also like these guys: - Not so well executed, but dripping with character.

I had a Few of them and was planning to paint them up to ally with my Space marines back when the daemon Hunters codex came out, I just never got around to it, then sold them of along with the rest of my Bitz box(A filled 2'x2'x2' Cardboard box, filled to only about 3" of space with various bitz from every army, including an entire Chapter's worth of unassembled marines) when I ragequit due to 4th edition and GW's answers to my questions("It works just like it did in 3rd").

I like them too.

etc, etc, etc

This chaplin is still available from GW, I got one just a few days ago from them.

The real question, is whether this Chaplain is an agent of the NECRON, he looks like a Terminator from the Movies. I have heard of Bionics but apothecaries cannot replace a missing head? Can they?

I converted this OOP Body with modern arms looks ok huh? I love the older models they convert so well..

Holy cow! I have those guys NIB not 3 feet from where I sit! It's amazing what you can find when cleaning out an old closet.

I have all of those. They are very awesome models indeed, except for the Techmarine, I would like his backpack to be a little more up to date.

me too^^ have them all in my for now unfinished custom chapter the earthangels...

I just remembered some OOP models I loved, Bjorn and Wulfen. Seriously those were awesome.

Pics Please... Otherwise we all get confused about which edition or model you are talking about.
