Well primaris are fluffiwise supposed to BE bigger so it's more up to fluff to have normal marine models to be smaller.

Play primaris, they look great, have some great units and are future proof, as marines transition to their new incarnation in the coming years.

We seem to be having a disagreement.

That is because you are wrong. Simply put true scale Primaris are great and look better than old Marines.

True scale to what? Not true scale to old marines though. Too big to be existing marines and thus unusable to use say as 30k marines

I'm pretty sure the stunty marines will be slowly phased out because I think Hastings said they would be when the huge debate over the real or not real picture of the prototype Primaris was leaked last year. Hastings is almost always correct as he called the entire End Times AOS outcome, I think the Admech/Necron box, AOS Elves and others.

From a business point of view it makes sense because it'll eventually cause stunty marine players to buy a new army.

In any event, the Primaris marines will be closer to the movie marines we have in the fluff.

That would mean killing off HH and thus killing off Forge World as well.
