Just a shame FW's shipping policy for most of the world is garbage (currently 10€ to ship this tiny Hobbit, which doesn't weigh a thing and takes up no space, to Finland), making repeated small orders way too expensive. Added some items to get the previous three (Bard/Legolas/Tauriel), but they simply don't have enough products available through Forge World to get above Free Shipping more than a few times. To clarify, I don't actually mind paying postage, but the charged rates are well beyond the costs here.
Yeah postage can be bit of issue but luckily usually I can just ask from local 40k group does anybody care about group order. I have got free express shipping that way when myself ordered not even enough for free regular shipping and regular free shipping isn't too much of an issue. Usually somebody wants something and the good thing about fw prices is 90e is easy to reach

The only thing I don't like about it is the assault cannon protruding out of the front too much, but that is easily modified.

I'd buy that just for the awesome sword stuck on the side within arms reach of the driver.

Does seem odd that they've got it round that way. It doesn't even look easy to swap over though as the hooks are modeled with the tassels flowing over it.

That Praetor is easily one of the nicest space marines FW has released in a gooooood long while. The terminator was nice too, as are both dreads, but hot damn this one beats all.

Love both of these models, and the paint jobs actually improve them.
Can we get an ultramarines leviathan and praetor, or even contemptor now?

You know, this is another 'details kinda ruin it for me' model. Look at that bolter - both targeter (the upper point above barrel) and the bayonet mount are melded into barrel, bayonet bit egregiously so, it's halfway in. Did the upside down bolter guy designed this? Also, look at both ends of the optics, either it's massive, hard to clean flash, or FW found optics broke too easily and added ugly bits of resin to support it underneath, and that's without even considering optics are laziest possible design, a cylinder with lenses sticking out to be easily scratched or dirtied on first possible thing. DA officers couldn't afford anything better? I am by no means 3D expert modeller, but I am pretty confident I could recreate that bolter in 20 minutes, and in an hour I'd produce something much better...
Edit: also, on second look, do you see his torso above keys? The bit without plates on? It's again, a simple cylinder, looking absolutely featureless, like 3D model from 1996 video game. Couldn't the designer even add a little texture or something to break this up to make it less obvious?

Shield has flat featureless planes as well. Not every mm of a model has to have some weirdo detail. There's saying less is more. Busy every square mm covered with something is plague that is infecting GW models too much

Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.
