Subject: Which model would you change?

Simple question. What is the one model GW currently makes that you would love to see redone?
My choice would be Cpt. Shrike. I'd really love to see a better pose. I'll convert my own model before using this one

In fact, Shrike pose is a bit strange. You're better off with a converted model.
I'd like to see the Obliterators redone - in plastic.

Chaplain Grimaldus. Not that there's anything wrong with the model, but according to fluff, he's got a Crozius Maul, not a Crozius Mace. Mauls are two-handed, he should get a bigger stick to flail around!

Mattieu~~~~ It's not that eldar are bad, it's that they require a lot of intergration between units. Also, that doesnt prove anything other than GW has a huge hard-on for marines, and, given the option between making a xeno the best psykers or making a marine the best psyker, they will 9 times out of 10 choose the marine.

The lucius model is ok imo. I want an updated Kharn and Ahriman model though, their sculpts appear really dated. All of the Daemon metal range (sans the Special Character Heralds), especially the ones that should be in plastic. And the Chaos Dreadnought.

I would like more generalist Rough Riders....Cadian Rough Riders or something. I definitely agree with that. Abaddon also needs to be redone, and I wouldn't mind seeing Hydras in plastic instead of just resin.

I would love to see a new ghazgkull. I'm not sure how old the model is, but when assembled, it pretty much always looks the same (have seen some brilliant conversions though)
The chaos dreadnought. they have done what, 3 or 4 plastic imperial dreads... and yet still the chaos one is the same metal fig from forever ago?

The Exorcist tank. Its an old hybrid kit that doesn't fit and requires a ton of work to get it right.

I only purchased an Inquisitor box because I love the model ( WH, not DH) and the codex, for shiz and gigs.
That being said, I also like the Exorcist tank. Just re-do it in plastic.

i think every old pewter HQ model needs redone. I think they need to make every Codex's "Standard HQ" choices (i.e Farseers. Ork warboss. Priests, captains, chaplains) need a Generic plastic box set (like the High elf wizards, Empire General, ork fantasy warboss, Elf Noble) so you can custom build your personal HQ!
I want to see PLASTIC redone aspect warriors!!
and thunderwolves actually NEED a model!
