Painlord Titan Princeps of Slaanesh

I was trying to explain to a lady why Emperor's Children is a Pink color and not actually real children's blood. She saw Saint Seiya back in the day and thought of Andromeda Shun when I was explaining Fulgrim and his finesse. Then she showed me a picture of the Saint Seiya cast and I was blown away at how much they looked like the Primarchs.
Andromeda Shun= Fulgrim
Dragon Shiryu = Vulkan
Cygnus Hyōga = Sanguinius but in silver armor
thats a few comparisons. Its a long stretch but its close.

It's just my opinion, but I really don't think they look like Primarchs.

oh course not, the Primarchs are big hulking men not these pansy boys.
I think I am grasping at straws. The lithe and slender Fulgrim, the Lizard Scaled Vulkan, the feathered wings of Sanguinius.

Mind you, while the Primarchs might look like super beefed up "manly men", collectively they all have the maturity and mindset of a 8 year old child.
There's more to a person than just outward appearance.

Without this, I almost lost a game once. It was scary. I almost took to buying fixed dice to ensure it never happened again.

I always pictured the Primarchs as overgrown children, so the OP's comparison makes a lot of sense. And Sanguinius was always described as lithesome, effeminate, and angelic, rather than hulking or brutish. In point of fact, most of the Primarchs are described more like 3 meter tall androgynous teens than 3 meter tall weight lifters.
