The title pretty much says it. What weaponry do you think looks best? What unit do you think it looks best on?

Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?
|
I've always liked the look of normal Mk7 Power Armour, it's nice and imposing without being clunky.
The Chainsword is up there as the icon of 40k, it's something I'm not sure any other franchise could really pull off.
The Land Raider is awesome, a huge box that you know is full of really cross marines.

I quite like the look of these too. I have an Iron Warriors chaos army and want to eventually include a unit of noise marines so these guys should fit perfectly as IMO the guns look more techonological than daemonic which suits the IW perfectly.
Does anyone know if the guns will fit well with the plastic csm?

Everything on the chaos terminators kit. Seriously, the bolts would strike the tip of upward sweeping chain bayonet and likely ricochet into your face but damn they look cool, spikes for the spike god!
Also, eviscerators. Makes me want to buy one of those extendable mini chainsaws for hedgetrimming and hang a lantern or censer from it or something,

I can firmly get behind this statement. If only they weren't a fast attack choice...
I always just loved the basic pulse rifle. something about the little Tau guys carting around a weapon as tall as they are that warms the cockles of my heart.

The new ccw/ranged weapons on the veterans kits look nice as well (not to mention the units themselves). 3 Jump Pack models w/ THs/SSs; who do they think they are, Hammernators?

No love for the orks? I think the nobz kit is real nice the only thing I don't like are the cybork parts. Love the deff dread. But best piece of war gear? The power klaw! Game over. No puny space marine gear comes close.
