Crap. If there's options(like different head and weapon) on lion I might have to get 2...Bugger.

Huh. I'm not as big a fan of the Lion as I thought I might be. Feels a little static for my liking (as in, he's clearly in motion, but I don't feel the sense of movement).

His armour and sculpting looks great, I just want to modify his pose.

FW Primarchs tend to have notably awful poses. Compare this to the non-static but far more terrible Russ, I think this easily wins, and I generally prefer the static Primarch poses (eg Dorn, Lorgar) to the dynamic Primarchs (eg Vulkan, Fulgrim) with some exceptions.

I'm no fan of the Space Marine bloat that has been occurring as of late, but if they show something quite different or new, I'll try to give a shot. But really, I'm hoping for some variety in the previews. Hopefully a bit less focus on the dudes in power armour for a change. Age of Sigmar I don't really care about, since I don't play it, nor have any interest in the game.

I hope the lion comes with an unhelmed option, because right now he just looks like a big dark angel. It looks good don't get me wrong, but not particularly primarchy.

Vulkans model is supposed to be in motion?! Damn that explains the lion I guess.

Russ' loping gait is perfect though.

Honestly I want helmets for all the Primarchs. Not only was Alpharius gorgeous, but the helmet is one of the reasons he was my favorite.

Oh yeah, I easily prefer this to Russ. And yeah, I think I agree on more static/commanding Primarchs looking better than dynamic ones. I think the only dynamic one I really like is Angron. Perty, Magnus, and Alpharius are a mix between dynamic and commanding, so I quite like them. My highlight Primarchs are Guilliman, Dorn, and Horus - aka, the most "commanding" ones.

JSG wrote:Russ' loping gait is perfect though.
Eh, not a fan myself, the angles and directions all feel off, and only really "work", when paired with Magnus. Russ definitely should be a moving Primarch, but his current sculpt does nothing for me.

I saw someone replace the hammer Vulkan has with the spear from He'stan. And it's a decent improvement, especially since he already looks like he's going to chuck it or stab with it

The impression given was that the stream would start at 1:45 and the WarCom site would start being updated at 2. It'd have been nicer if they'd been a bit clearer that the first fifteen minutes of stream was just going to be banal waffling.

15m earlier. We figured that would mean they reveal something, and 15m later it goes up on the blog. Not 15m of nothing.
