"Your society's broken, so who should we blame? Should we blame the rich, powerful people who caused it? No, lets blame the people with no power and no money and those immigrants who don't even have the vote. Yea, it must be their fething fault." - Iain M Banks

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal

Would be great if they were released like BB so you could get 20% off those plastic prices too ... would be lovely if I got to play the game still with both kidneys

YES! The old Box style! I feared that the new Primaris Dreadnought would change to that ugly Contemptor model.
It looks a little strange without the baby legs, but is pretty cool.
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.

Funny you should say that, as it reminds me of a Marine Dread built out of Lego. Kinda the same shape, not perfect proportions, more blocky. There's a few examples of them floating around online.

To be honest, it looks ultra cool. I'll have 0 problems playing against this

I await better pics of the Redemptor with baited breath Fingers crossed for a Venerable style "head" option. Looks to be roughly twice the height of a MK-X Primaris marine, so just a bit taller then a Contemptor? Seems to be a lot wider as well.

Well as a long time Death Guard player, I was already excited about the new stuff, and Mortarian is something I cant wait to see.
But that primaris dread just convinced me to I'm starting a SM army too. Really cool model.
You can never beat your first time. The second generation is shinier, stronger, faster and superior in every regard save one, and it's an unfair criticism to level, but it simply can't be as original. - Andy Chambers, on the evolution of Games Workshop games

I'm likely going to pick up some Primaris Marines in the future, to bolster my Blood Angels 5th Battle Company. May wind up with one of the new dreads too, but I already want a Death Company Dread first, so not sure about picking up the Redemptor (Though, it's a damn cool model to be sure.)
The Mortarion Vs. Guilliman artwork on the first page is awesome, and the teaser video above is equally fun. I can't wait to see full images of the model. It's looking fantastic.
Take it easy.
