Putting a primaris armor with swapped pads and helmet on the OP is a bold choice

Heh yes it was just the first image to cath my eye in my HH folder. The one next to it is a NL Leviathan, would probably have been a better choice (NL get so little love).

we'll be laughing about this by page 3 when someone posts a huge rant about primaris in the HH no doubt

At last the IInd Legion is getting some love!

I can't lie, if they released a hybrid Tacticus-Iron mark of power armour at the same scale as the Primaris, I'd spend wa-ay too much money.

...actually, just give me mkII and III with the same size and proportions as the new beakies. I will sell every non-essential organ.

I've got a number of primaris marines that I tossed MK III heads on they look pretty good.

Most of my primaris have Mkiii/iv heads & pauldrons. They look soooooo much better.

Much of HH social media at the moment seems to be trolls writing either this ‘Are Primaris coming to HH?’ or ‘Let’s do 30k competitive tier lists’, there is an outburst in response and then the posts get deleted. I do feel for those communities at the moment tbh!

In the interest of on-topicness...



Am I correct in assuming this means plastic Mechanicum in August?

Cause that would be awesome sauce.

We're all just twiddling our thumbs and counting down for our large and expensive parcels on Saturday now aren't we...

Any guesses on what they might preview for the last Thursday before release?

That graphic is supremely unclear as to what plastics are coming, and when. Just releasing the standalone big-box kits in July-September would also fit the arrow, or it might mean many releases between now and November of all sorts. I'm not going to hold my breath over stuff that has not yet been previewed or leaked. So that's new proteus land raider (pics seen), and deimos vindi and predator (given the new deimos sprue seems laid out particular to fit those, and they've been rumoured for a while IIRC), plus the official preview of the leviathan and pics of alternative bits for the contemptor. More resin head kits for mark vi also seems likely.

Well, they rarely preview stuff much more than 3 months in the future, with the notable exceptions of Squats, Sisters of Battle and Warhammer The Old World.

But I remain hopeful for Deimos Predators. They’re kind of a staple tank to my mind, and if feels odd they’ve not yet shown them off,

Plastic Solar Auxilia when? Also, Auxilia dice please GW!

Could the Thread creator please uodate the first Post and add those things we know about upcoming releases and the Roadmap instead of a Primaris Marine fanart?

Could the primarch pictures in the background of the roadmap months signify possible legion upgrade kits?

Not impossible but who gets what pads for the second one, given that it’s the Emperor, not a primarch? Custodes/SoS would seem logical but the Liber Imperium isn’t ‘til October…

Pretty random order too if it does. Stuff like that should just come out in one go really. And if not, legion order is probably the most sensible way because at least you’d have some idea of the wait (ignoring the fists and sons as they tied into the box).

I'd assume the graphic means there will be new HH models released every month. But(and its a big but) there's nothing to say what faction they will be for, or even if they will be GW plastics or FW resin.

That seems the only way to read the big ole arrow down the side. Is the outline definitely a dread? No chance it's one of the Mechanicus bots right?

I have a good feeling about getting Mechanicum bots. No basis, just that GW seems to be going all in on HH.

Nah that’s 100% a contemptor.

I see they plan on only releasing 3 models in the next few months. :V


Being serious once again, has there been any word on plastic jump pack assaulters?

All I want is this guy in plastic and i will start a new army



Oh and these guys, in hordes of 20+



Mechanicum models are so much better than the Adeptus Mech line.

I don't see any plastic Mechanicum Kits in the next months.... maybe that Thallax.

There are rumours about Assault Marines and a Weapon set for pistols and close combat weapons.

I love the Mechanicum models, and the Thanatar is my absolute favourite, so I’d be right there with you I think.

Plasma Thanatar is the best model FW ever made, yes. The Triaros is close though.

That said, I feel like the tech-thralls are seriously over-engineered¹ for dudes with lasguns. Even if they are S4 lasguns.



¹ both in-lore and as models.

I doubt that they will rush out more new plastics immediately, as most people will have 50+ marines to work through soon.

My money says we'll get further main GW plastic kits alongside the book releases every 2-3 months, such as the already previewed Leviathan at the same time as Mechanicum book and the regular Land Raider in October. However every month will probably see a FW resin release with things like new legion shoulder pads, helmets, and maybe characters.

I see they merged the three Thanatar entries into one - could that be the sign of a single kit with options to make all three primary classes?

Corswain and Exodus don't have models yet, plus the special characters like Lucius either haven't been released yet or were only at the open day (Ka'bandha, Marduk).

Couple that with the Proteus, potential Predators, Leviathan, etc and they could easily fill out a few months even if they don't reveal anymore than what's been leaked.

I don't think the Mechanicum will get any plastics yet and certainly not Solar Auxilia, but the Arlatax survived the 'no models no rules' purge so maybe I'll be proven wrong.

If Assault Marines or at least Despoiler arms aren't in there somewhere I'd be shocked too.
