Now I know it's been said before, but I want to chime in:

A Space Marine "gunship" with transport capacity, brick-like aerodynamics and a very large main gun?

Errr...isn't that the Thunderhawk?

Which is why I don't like this new flyer. It's just an uglier version of the Caestus, with a cheaper plastic kit. The only reason for it to exist is to sell more stuff.

Exactly.

The flier is part terrible, part lazy design, but also part I'm glad this is not a boring airplane. Hard to describe.

Between the gunboat brick and the murdering murderfang of murder, this whole release is some seriously lazy and uninspiring design. It's lowest common denominator stuff.

I have the old Bjorn. The newer one is not enough of an improvement, and the bling is too over the top.

GW used to do "over the top" in a cool way. This stuff just looks like typical 12-year-old "over the top" stupidity.

I'm happy for anyone who enjoys them, but they're not for me.
