I don't think there are going to be 30 Legion Veterans in the box. I think that is a typo.

If you look at the picture of all the models it only shows 10.

Also, if you add up the approx. value of all the models @ retail you come out to right around $240 USD.

If you add a 60% "Added Value" to $150 USD comes out to right around $240 USD.

The pic of the box contents shoes 47 models - what are they if not mk iii? It'll be 30 as per calth. Even the visuals back it. You're bonkers if you think otherwise

So far we've had someone dispute the contents and someone else saying that the models are not legion free and that's with the writing at the side clearly saying otherwise.

Now we've got someone saying the sisters and custodes are single pose - where have you heard that from?

Keep your speculation to yourself unless you have any information.

Wonderful!

Trust the chaos whiners come in and do their standard copy&paste whine

The writing on the side clearly states:

"The miniatures can be painted to represent any 30k or 40k Space Marines, only the transfer sheet and heroes are chapter specific."

I guess he edited as you were replying.

includes 30 legion veterans (for games purposes 10 space wolves veterans & 20 thousand sons veterans)

Damn! Feth! AAAaaaaarrrrrgh!

I thought I was free of you, GW!

I may have to buy this, with the 30 marines and such it comes out to about $3 per mini, pretty sweet. Of course, I'm already sitting on two companies of marines, so I can't imagine what I'm going to do with those minis. As much as I know the rules will be borked, I want this for the board game as well.

I really want to pick this up as I totally would love to make a pre-heresy era Thousand Sons. However, I have no clue what I would use them for. I don't see any groups playing 30k around here. CSM are garbage atm and it would be weird to use 30k Tsons as regular Space Marines. I just love them so dang much though!

We have this pic showing all standard marks of power armour


Is there a pic like this for Terminator armour? I've been unable to find one and really curious to what marks are out there.

That picture is outdated. Forgeworld changed a lot of them

H. R. Geiger the Face huggerrrr...I mean Fell handed

Less "marks" and more "patterns. Cataphractii, Tartaros, and Indomitus are the standard patterns, with specialized, legion/chapter specific suits being less widespread, such as Aegis, Gorgon, etc.

Indomitus is the regular 40k style TDA suit.

BAUS! look at those sisters!

Edit: 22nd October!

ugh jesus I can't even... GW needs to slow down and stop releasing this wishlist of models every damn month, I must have but can't build or paint perhaps ever... even knowing that, will buy. It's not right!

I see you're ignoring that the Magnus the Red box art clearly shows the faction as "Thousand Sons" .

After 9 years of neglect I'm allowed a few more weeks of whinging.

There is a new video on the warhammer tv facebook page, which kinda confirms the 22nd pre-order date, looking at the past videos

Might be releasing on the 22nd? Making preorders tomorrow alongside the made to order minis

Im gonna guess it's pre-orders 22nd, tomorrow would be fething amazing though, like outta nowhere.

One complaint though, who is the unfortunately names Geigor the fell-handed??? Why didn't they just go with Bjorn???

The Sisters are the clear winner there for me, the rest is good but they look stunning! I won't be getting the full set for a while, but a sprue or two of SoS might be ebaying their way to me in the near future (especially if they do end up being full multipose kits).

Looks like one of the PA guys has a HB. Didn’t notice any other heavy weapons.

Thunder hammer is there, an option not in the BaC box

Probably will be a good game, but I'll never be able to find someone to play the Space Wolf side, since Space Wolves are lame.

Ooohh. Like the Thunder Hammer for the Sergeant.

I quite enjoyed seeing GW models that close up. It gives me some insight into their painting method.

The voiceover is pretty epic. I'm ready to hop on the Thousand Sons train, feth the Emperor.

Oh man how exciting.

I always love seeing cool gak like this.

its gonna be a bad month for my wallet with both GSC and this coming up

Not sure whether to ebay the marines as I could finally do a little cabinet 30k army but I prefer the armour from BaC but I do love the Tartar sauce Termies.

Here are the only pics worth posting imo




I'm honestly not that impressed, armour looks like something from Age of Sigmar rather than 40K.
They have the same lightning as Sigmarines do if I'm not mistaken.
