Nice that Fulgrim is, I really like the pose too.

Wow he looks pretty cool.. and glad that they tried to do something different to the Kabuki Fulgrim by going for the all-action pose.

I'm not a fan of the jumping and screaming pose. I understand this model is really one half of a diorama set, though.

The other half being Ferrus Manus?

Exactly what I thought as soon as I saw the model. This sculpt was made to be alongside the Ferrus model they must be making. Hopefully he'll be next. As much as I hate loyalist scum, I really want to see a loyalist Primarch.

I am quite confident that they will produce Mk VIII to Mk LXIIb before they release a book on Dark Eldar ... or the next Fantasy book

Where's my Blood Angel Banner??? Q_Q

Also The Alpha Legion has a corvus helm, I thought those game out after the HH. Am I wrong?

I seriously look forward to seeing better pictures of the Kakaphoni Noise Marines as well as Erebus. I'm trying to ignore the Mechanicus stuff for the sake of my wallet.

I'm not really a Mechanicus fan, but that Automata bot is friggen sweeeeeeeeeet.

They were around at the beginning of the Heresy (I believe just before) and during it. Horus managed to secure most of the manufactorums, including mars, and so was able to secure more of the mk6 armour than the loyalists (which is why the traitor legions are often portrayed as wearing it).

Ah ok, that makes sense.

Or, as most ok the Mk VI was given to the Raven Guard, hence the Corvus nickname, and Alpha Legion infiltrated them during the Heresy, it could be straight up TWOC.

If the Mechanicum keeps getting rules and units in dribs and drabs over each of the Heresy books, the full 'codex' is going to look like a set of encyclopedias and cost as much as my house.

Time for a second mortgage.

Massacre is looking to be a large book assuming that all 7 legions are going to be represented and the first four are looking to be getting updates.

This. Basically the entire supply of MKVI that was saved from mars was given to Corvus and his devastated legion. I'm sure Horus got some too. But the only loyalists that should be wearing are Raven Guard.

Did the IF not get some when they went to Mars?

Pretty sure they did but the traitors got more.

Massacre will be 2 parts, 4 legions in one, 4 in the other.

It gets retconned all the time. Look at the old artwork from the era of Adeptus Titanicus and Space Marine (pre-EPIC EPIC) and almost everyone is wearing corvus armour.

Well, that legion tank just made me wet myself.

And that Automata is incredibly bad ass.

The assault claw is HUGE.

Thank you Kroothawk.

i love that erebus

Some very nice stuff there, that drop pod is pretty awesome.

I love the Castellax, glad to see they are continuing to bring stuff from Rogue Trader into the present lines. I always had a soft spot for the Imperial Robots; hopefully the lighter robot classes will make an appearance as well. Actually now that I think about it, the Thallaxi bear a passing resemblance to the old Crusader-class, maybe that was part of the intent.

Robots.

*gasp*

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!

Well, not just robots. Pretty awesome robots.

I'm not interested in the III Legion, but between their Primarchs, their Terminators, their Kakophoni (that name is lame), and their elite swordsman squad, they are having a great 2013. All of those kits are pretty great as well.

Thanks for the news, all!

The new robot looks a lot cooler than the Thallax. The Magos is a bit...busy, but still very mechanicus. I like the direction they're taking with them, though I doubt I'll ever buy any; they're just not quite my thing, but then that goes fro most of the HH stuff. of course, I say that not knowing what might happen with the Imperial Army, and I do love fancy guard stuff. it's just that so far, a lot of the HH stuff doesn't have appeal to someone playing straight 40k, the marine on marine thing still doesn't appeal to me nor my group.

it would, however, appear that we're in the minority, as this stuff seems to be doing rather well, seemingly at the expense of other projects.

I love the Castellax and Legion Tank. They both seem to bave some inspiration from other sources though- Castellax in some of the painted pictures has the red and gold Iron Man color sceme, and the Legion tank sort of resembles the MBT-6 Predator Tank from Command and Conquer. Not that that is a bad thing.

I don't play 30K, but the models are lovely and I can see some uses for them in 40K games as counts-as. The Castellax makes an easy Dreadnought, and the Legion tank is basically begging to counts as a Leman Russ Executioner as an allied IG detachment to Marines, say as Chapter Serfs.

Adeptus Mechanicus---oh yeah.

Did they give Erebus a witch nose? And is it the angle or is that assault claw huge?

Looks like I found my 'counts as' Maulerfiend etc.!

Cant see the pics (stupid work) but my mate put up a pic of a alt Fulgrim in my FB group? Is it real? looks a bit too close in design to be a 'not Fulgrim' has a distinctly non action pose though. I actually prefer it. A lot.

Damn. These guys keep pumping out some great models.

Yeah, the robot is the sexy.

The tank is a cool design, but I would hesitate to buy it after my experiences with the Land Raider Proteus...
