So, digging around amongst my old gear, I discovered a largely unsued Space Hulk set (2nd/3rd edition, I think) containing several sprues of Termies/Genestealers. As I've just begun building a SM army, I'm after some opinions. Trade the old style termies for some newer sprues, or make use of them as a flavour unit in my new army? EDIT: After a look around, it would seem they're first edition Termies, exactly like these ones ( http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Warhammer-40k-Space-Marine-Hulk-10-Terminators-L433-/280660141459?pt=UK_Toys_Wargames_RL&hash=item4158a5e593#ht_592wt_1139)

I've got some of those termies and I think they suck, I'd personally go with newer models. If you decide on the old look though maybe we can work a deal for my models?

Yeah, they're first edition space hulk (and they also were in theTyranid Attack game) and they are still as ugly as feth.
2nd ed spacehulk had multipart teminators (torso was two parts - head included - and could rotate around a peg on the hips, legs and arms) and they were the boxed plastic terminators until they redid them in 4th ed?
I gave my original terminators away to someone who wanted them (back in 1989?). I had the metal ones released at the time (original metal terminator box release) and they were much better looking.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

That would be my Space Hulk terminator, too!
I collect these puppies, if nothing else for the nostalgia. If you don't want yours, I'll take them off your hands for you!
