Why do none of them have curly hair? Russ is kinda curly, more likely just messy and tangled though. There needs to be a primarch with a jew-fro or something.

I have orks and old school dark eldar. Also my roommate collects space marines, but refuses to admit he plays warhammer, so I claim they are my own in public.

I think perterbo should have have the red curly jew fro. It would explain why he was treated the way he was.

Hey! I resemble that remark!

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.
Orks always ride in single file to hide their strength and numbers.

Not enough people are talking about the great hair of Russ! Only reason he might not deserve to win is because he has the 'worst' tank chasis in the universe named after him. Seriously just use the Rhino chasis it's so much easier to maintain!

For the most part this could be a quick question: what looks better, a bald/shaved head or long flowing locks. Most of them seem to have one or the other.

Weather accurate or not I prefer Leman Russ hairstyle and general look in Prospero Burns rather than the flaming red head.

To me it seems more wolfsih and less like kyle from south park.

Dorn - block grey head is just cool

ADB: I showed the Wolves revealing the key weakness at the heart of the World Eaters; showing Angron that his Legion was broken and worthless compared to the others; that he was the one primarch who couldn't trust his own warriors, and that they didn't care if he lived or died; showing that loyalty to brothers and sons is the heart of success for the Legiones Astartes, to the point even Lorgar makes a big deal out of saying the World Eaters and their primarch were massively outclassed by Russ, and Angron was too stupid to see the lesson Russ had sacrificed time, sweat, and blood, to teach. We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself. It was a balance, 50/50 - Angron overpowered Russ, and the Wolves were losing ground to the World Eaters; but Russ and his warriors had Angron by the balls, and barely broke a sweat. They won, no question. Lorgar even says: "The Wolves won, meathead."

Dorn won’t help you either. He’s too busy being the Emperor’s groundskeeper, hiding behind the palace walls. The Wolf is too busy cutting off heads as our father’s executioner, while the Lion holds on to his secrets, and has no special fondness for you. Who else will come? Not Ferrus, certainly. Nor Corax either. Even as we speak, I suspect he flees for Deliverance. Sanguinius?’ Curze laughed cruelly. ‘The angel is more cursed than I. The Khan? He does not wish to be found. So who is left? No one, Vulkan. None of them will come. You are simply not that important. You are alone.’ Konrad Curze to Vulkan

None of the above. The Primarch who had the best hair, his name is unknown, His Legion has been stricken from Imperial records. All that remains is a picture of him:



My wife has got me hooked on Supernatural, mostly because I'm all but convinced that Sam and Dean are the two lost primarchs and John is the God-Emperor. They were sent back in time by chaos (because they were the most attuned to it; though not in the way they wanted) and John/Big E followed them. He groomed them to fight Chaos in an attempt to try and undermine the ruinous powers before things got REALLY bad.


But to answer the poll, Russ gets my vote. I imagine he had Thor hair (correctly red, I might add) and gets portrayed as having a pretty wicked permanent 5'o'clock shadow.

Dangerzone!

On a side note I voted for khan, his hair just adds to how glorious he looks, I will always picture him surfing a razorback while in high heels. Nothin beats that.

Kain on Tzeentch:
The negative so far outweighs the positive that it creates a vicious cycle, with Chaos ensuring more bad things(TM) and largely only bad thigs happen. The fact that the major Xenos are mostly donkey-caves doesn't help, especially since the Imperiumis in turn, a bunch of donkey-caves.
Thus Tzeentch, god of donkey-caves, is the most generally successful. Because out of this huge pile of donkey-caves, none are more dickish than the great blue Jerk.

Because obviously, Blood Angels are a twilight rip-off...

Look at the poll.
Look at the hair of the primarchs.

This poll is pretty much made for Sanguinius to win with his flowing blonde locks...
We may as well have had 'Which primarch had the best wings?'

Except, if you actually look at the pictures, sanguinius has a stupid part, and his hair is just a shorter version of the lions. The only reason to vote for him is because "vampires are cool"

I didn't vote for him anyway.

I'm just saying, if you look at the hair, he's just a shorter version of lion's with a stupid part, how is that better in any way?? Here is a model comparison if the picture wasn't enough




If you think that the second is better than the first hair-wise, you might be a twilight fanboy.
