The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

#7 had my vote, too! Easy to put together and paint.

I disagree with the Corvus Blackstar. It was too simplistic and seemed designed deliberately to prevent using as bits for other models and conversions.

Quite miffed that the containers didn't score as high as hoped. I demand a recount.

I don't recognize quite a few things on that list.
I would've voted for the Ogroid Thaumaturge though!

Jep. For me as well. Otherwise preferred the Orruk Mawcrusha over the Megaboss.

... I built the new tzeentch sorceror 3 pack kit a wee while back.
Great sculpts/models with some awesome options.
But with some exceptions -- shoulder pads, odd helmets etc -- there's very little direct compatibility with other marine type kits.
It's...hmmm... annoying is too strong of a term... but... being an old git it certainly stands out. Especially given how in the past the cross compatibility of the kits was always a thing.
Most of the bodies, legs etc are similar to the plastic clamp pack kits which can only really be attached in one way.

I disagree with nearly the entire list. New ksons not listed?

Were the Thousand Sons a January 2017 release?

I like a lot of these, except the Stardrake and the Orruk Megaboss. I would've replaced it with the Warboss on Wyvern.

I can't recall if they were the same week or if the rubrics were shortly after.

The fact that Laketown houses didn't make #1 proves this poll was rigged. That's the best kit GW has ever made.
