Old daemonettes as I based my entire army on them and those "breast canser patients" just suck, bad hair (I like tentacles), too few boobs.

Every time I hear "in my opinion" or "just my opinion" makes me want to strangle a puppy. People use their opinions as a shield that other poeple can't critisize and that is bs.
If you can't defend or won't defend your opinion then that "opinion" is bs. Stop trying to tip-toe and defend what you believe in. |

Another vote for Inquisitor models. I don't see why they removed them? I mean, I know most are still available, but not some of the cool ones! I regret selling my old collection now. Had the fat bloke with cigar. Gone. Had the Xenos. Gone. Had the Bosun. Gone :(

They have the moulds, any time they want they could make them available through their website. I have little sympathy with complaints about recasting after they encouraged people to buy into a game only to axe more than half the models for it, some of them barely months or even weeks after release.

One thing I really miss is the old plastic marine arms and assault weapon sprue. One handed boltguns and weapon swaps are so much more complicated than they used to be.

The 2nd Edition Blood Bowl line, all of it, much better than the current models, even those that they've tried to pay homage to the 2nd line with in recent years.
Biggest regret I have Is selling 17 painted NAF teams for Star Trek CCG cards in the early 90's. What was I thinking.

GAunt ghosts, not the command box who all people say, i'm telling the troop, a bit simple but cool, they lacked special weapon options and a lot of things more  it can be cool for an IG vet army, apart of it, most of IG metal still available, it's OK for me. Praetorians? i only know one person who would make praetorians in my FLGS....
The CSM rocker can be cool, is that kind of miniature i purchase to paint and put somewhere in my room  i also have the goff ork rockers^^
I would like to see the inquisitor in terminator armor, that one who was pointing with the finger in a truly badass fashion, some of the lates inquisitors retinues.... were did go that zealot of the chainsaw????

"If you really want to know what it was like, to fight in the air in the great War, then go up to someone you have never met and who has never done you the slightest harm and pour a two-gallon tin of petrol over them. Then apply a match, and when they are nicely ablaze, push them from a fifteenth-floor window after first perhaps shooting them a few times in the back with a revolver. And be aware as you are doing these things that ten seconds later someone else will quite probably do them to you. This will exactly reproduce... the substance of First World War aerial combat and will cost your country nothing. It will also avoid the necessity of ten million other people to die in order for you to enjoy it."

Fourthed. Not only were they a much better sculpt than the current plastic, but they were slaaneshy hawt too.
On another note, the old Noise marines were truly awesome.

Incorporating Wet-Blending

Both the Daemonettes and the Horrors were far better the last time around. It's not just the sculpt, either, it's the visual direction that made the metal ones awesome and the plastic ones generically poor.

I'd love them to refine and complete the xenos fleets to the same level as the Imperial Navy and Chaos fleet for Battlefleet Gothic. Redo the Tau fleet to (even vaguely) resemble the forgeworld ships and sort out the mess that is eldar or just produce Craftworld eldar versions of the corsair ships.

I'd like to see Genestealer cults make a comeback.
As much as I hate to say it, I'd like to see Squats. I'm not even into Dwarves in any way - I find them lame. I do, however, love the idea of a fully mechanized army - lots of crazy battlesuits, and heavy armor, and...
My god. I think I nearly admired Tau for a second.

What would that accomplish? All you have in the fluff is:
Eldar - bonesinger
IG - Enginseer
SM - Techmarine
Ork - Mek
Nid - they dont fix things, they consume them once the slaughter has finished.
All you have is Tau and Dark Eldar...
