Yes, unfortunately it appears that multi pose characters are not something that GW is interested in anymore, instead going with monopose-multipart characters. Pity, i would have loved a multi part... well almost anything.

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

It doesn't have to be in plastic, but I think it would be pretty cool to have a 40K scale Capitol Imperialis.

A plastic marine kit that can make a customized Librarian/Chaplain/Captain, with a muiltitude of options.

All they'd need to do is add a psychic hood back a power maul, and a skull helmet. If they ever remake the old commander box...

I'd throw in another vote for plastic guard variants:

Mordian/some other fancy schmancy regiment

Valhallans/other regiment

Tallarn/Steel legion

All it'd take is 2-3 kits per variant (10 guys + Heavy weapons inc, command squad) with arm and head swaps and I'd spooge my life savings over some valhallan goodness, FOOD BE DAMNED.


This is where I'd put my signature...If I had one!

1. Space Marine Honour Guard - multi-part plastic kit. Comes with an assortment of the different Power Weapons (axes, sword, AND mauls). Would also come with a Chapter Banner that has a piece in the middle that can be changed out that is for the different Chapters (one for each of the Chapter Tactics in the book).
2. Dreadnought Weapon Sprue - would contain all the different upgrades available for the Dreadnought, namely the Multi-Melta (is anyone else confused as to why the Dreadnought does not include the weapon it includes base?), and Autocannons.
3. Thunderfire Cannon - Seriously, the finecast version is a pain in the butt. Techmarine would be a multi-part kit (possibly even a recut of the plastic Techmarine I listed below, just with only the Servo Harness option)
4. Techmarine - would include Servo Arm, Servo Harness, and Conversion Beamer options.
5. Servitors - Would include the different options for each Servitor.
6. Updated plastic Chaos Space Marines - basically the whole range
7. Rubric Marines and Thousand Son Sorcerer
8. Mortis Pattern Dreadnought - Basically just the regular Angry Washing Machine kit with additional parts for the left arm. May criss-cross with #2.

1. Plastic kits featuring all the options the unit can have including max unit size. No more of this having to buy 1.5, 2.5, 3 or even 4+ kits to make one bleeping unit. It doesn't make me want to buy more, it makes me buy less and start to consider recasts (which is bad for the hobby).
2. Kits for units that don't have one. Not everyone likes to do conversion work.
3. Weapon upgrade kits. Kits with nothing but weapons in them.
4. Sisters of Battle. They have been left in the dark too long.
5. Plastic forge world and plastic hq kits. Seriously make that stuff more affordable and bring back kits like the old Space Marine Commander kit.

@NorseSig -

It would be wonderful if there were more upgrade frames like the factioned ones that came out this year. 2-3 identical heavy weapons to a box, or 5 identical special weapons (like the old melta and plasma that came in resin), for instance, would be awesome.

More plastic space marine backpacks with capes would be cool, too, as they would allow a lot more conversions of hero models for the guys that are only available in finecast. And besides, caped backpacks are cool

Just some ideas:

Chaos Havocs
Just make them like the Dev box set, just Chaosy.

Chaos Obliterators/Mutilators
Make them less ugly. What I mean is keep the mutated look, just change the weird faces and hand-things.

New Abbadon model
Self explanatory if you've ever built/seen one built/seen one dropped.

SM Command Squad with bikes
Make the bikes look cool also with fancy icons etc.

Grot tanks
So much yes.

Just realised how much Chaos is on there, I don't even play Chaos. Must feel sorry for them.

An anachronism made of a mishmash of scales and goofy proportions, making little mechanical or physical sense. You'd be right, if you had stuck 'GW' instead of 'the hobby' on the end.

Er, what? The Russ is a beyond terrible design for fighting modern street thugs let alone heading a large minority of operations undertaken by the main military arm of a 10,0000+ star empire. Even from that picture alone I count a turret designed for 3 inch Autocannons fitted with a massive howitzer,no weapon mounts capable of aiming a airborne targets a crude rhomboid "suspension" useless for moving over anything other than holes dug onto flat ground, riveted RHA that most nations abandoned in 1940 with no ERA or other modern armour, hardly any armour sloping and shot traps all over the areas that are sloped, very few anti- slip surfaces or grab handles, a big shootable cupola/optics and a ridiculous high profile making the camouflage profile a bad joke among other flaws. You can't call any model iconic for no reason other than that GW refuses to update it when they can make more new overpriced/powered toys.
