I really hope those get stats for use in Deathwatch Overkill as well - look a little more hulking than the Aberrants.

Are SW getting new models or just the typical chapter update with some primaris boxes with shoulderpads?

They didn't outright say all codexes from Knights onwards are getting new stuff. But they very strongly hinted at it (and that it was the reason they were last).

Actually they did say that both of these codexes would get new kits. The actual quote was “they will follow the trend of recent books, which all had new kits”. I could see SW just getting Primaris boxes with wolf upgrade sprues though

Brother Castor is from the Space Marine Heroes line of Japanese trading kits. Is this a hint of a ROW release for those kits?

They did post (on facebook) a while that they were aware of the demand for them outside of Japan and were looking at ways to make it happen
so I guess it could be (or it might be that taking them to shows/events is the only way)

Or it's just that push fit models are easier to prep for a Paint and Take.

Well, none, unless you count that Necron board game. Which, given this is games expo, maybe, just maybe, might be a promotion of this. But yeah, let's just put tin hats on and start making dumb off topic comments on Primaris

And it's not really off topic is it - this thread is titled "Games Workshop at the UK Games Expo", and it was an observation about the GW Paint and Take Area at the UK Games Expo

What else are we going to use lol? 'permanently(as far as we know) removed from the game and production though still existing in one form or another in the fluff and still remembered enough that people bring it up a lot.' P(afawk)rfgptseofafsrepbual' just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Um, I wasn't making comments about Primaris. I just pointed out that it was a Heroes figure.

Please god yes. I reffuse to spend £10-15 per tactical marine on ebay but I really want them. Plus the captain from the Heroes range is one of my favourite sculpts.

And refuse to love the Spinosaurus because it is a hamfisted attempt at taking what you loved, making it TREX +++ and trying to sell you it.

I did a review of the Space Marine Heroes Series 1 a while ago, including size comparisons. They are a bit taller like the Mk8 Deathwatch Kill Team Marines, arguably the most "truescale" Non-Primaris-Marines GW ever released.
