I'll blow my purity seals if another Primarch (hopefully Sang) is revealed at WarhammerFest. It feels like that model in the image is close to being revealed aswell since it has already been painted. Most in the past have just been concepts or whatever.

I got a feeling we'll see it at Fest too.

Part of me hopes Sanguinius doesn't return. It just cheapens the whole final showdown with horus and the emperor. And in a universe where nothing stays dead....well thats the lamest gak ever. I could see the lion or perhaps russ returning but not ferrus or sanguinius.

But apparently the new GW is feeling ambitious in meddling with a setting that really is just a backdrop for models and gaming. This kind of damage can't be undone so easily.

Not much to be done about it

girlyman is back so the flood gate full of sharks is open.

i wana see dorn come back with an AWESOME mechanical powerfist hand

Ferrus is going to come back as a robot

Russ comes back full furry

and the rest in various ways. maybe lion with bed head.

Bed head huh? I'd buy a slacker Big Lebowski Primarch sculpt. Hell yeah.Ugly Sweater Armour provides a 2+ Inv, and the Power Bowling Ball is S+3, D6 Mortal wounds, but only if you, you know, feel like it man.

If they bring back Sanguinus before Lion El'jonson...

He is just in the Rock! Made the Watchers in the Dark awake him, FFS!

Exactly. It's always been known he was the one "living" primarch still around and would wake up when needed....

I can't tell if your emoji is wearing Russ' patented new BloodFurMurderWolf Mk X Primaris Armour or not...

I think the one he killed was actually called Ice Stalker, and looked like a snow leopard.

Again, I want it to be him, I just don't think it is.

I'm also totally on board with him having a closet full of furs from dead giant cats.

{Edit} Sang will be back. The story has already almost written itself. The Son has sacrificed himself, for the mistakes of his Father, to save his Kingddom. Resurrection is imminent.

No matter who it is, PETA will be upset again for someone wearing fur . So we know it won't be imperial after that imperial standard post.

That's a black and white filter applied over a painted model, here's it plugged into a colorizer. Nothing earth shattering, but still interesting.



To be redone later when I can find a site that doesn't make logos all over everything.

My 2 guesses ; Lion el Johnson, or something for AOS stormcasts

Lion El Johnson, Stormcasts, or High Elf White Lions bloodbowl team.

i'd say it's a blood bowl white lion

Gdamit if they bring back Sang his death will mean nothing

If sanguinus and/or Horus come back from the dead, 40k will really have turned into a bad manga.

I'm not seeing anything that screams 40k so I'll go with AoS for now. I'm not sure which faction other than Stormcasts.

maybe sanguinus for 30k

Yeah, I'm not sure why everyone is assuming it's a 40k Sanguinus, we know a 30k version is coming..

Definitely looks like a lion, not a leopard. Looks like a stormcast or high elf unit to me. I've heard the next 40k primarch release is mortarion, and most likely the lion after that.

30k sanguinis is coming, not sure if we will even see a 40k version unless he is cloned (he and ferrus manus are very dead).

Given that they just did the original High Elf BB team as made to order, I don't think they'll be releasing the plastic/resin version anytime soon.

My personal interpretation is that they've been using the MTO to fill in the gaps for BB teams they aren't going to get to soon.

Better not read the Bible.

The main antagonist and protagonist just keep coming back.

I agree, but I take it further. Bring back any of the Primarchs feels like ramping up the power quotient in the setting in a way you can't roll back. Almost like bring 30K Horus Heresy into the main game.

You can roll it back - they get 'killed'/injured/put in stasis/go missing...again!

Hoping this is the case. I'm all for GW getting caught up with the 30k Primarchs.

My guess is stormcast. The Dracoth rider from the starter set had lion heads on the armour, also the celestant prime, so its obviously a symbol of authority for them.

The pelt could also look cool on a special Custodes HQ.

And ofcourse, it could be Alpharius posing as Sanguinus.

Edit: Aparently the lord aquilor has lots of lionheads worked in to his armour, and even a pelt compleat with paws, so Id say the theme is clearly storcast.

feth it. If they bring back all those people they need a big ass Commander Puretide model. Be like Ha we cloned you and put you into a giant robot of death.

How about the silent king and the c'tan's?

If no one can stay dead the at least bring back all the cool mythological figures from every race.

I want Vect back too super up with some sort of cool weapon of war that can let him fight Primarch.

Please nonononono. There are no heroes in the Dark Millennium. Regardless of how much you believe in the god-emperor, regardless of how many squadmates you save or Orks you kill, you will die equally to an artillery shell fired from out of line of sight, and your efforts will never end the eternal war.

Even if you lead a campaign to glory, or defeat two Ork WAAAGHs singlehandedly by inspiring your armies, you will die just like anyone else. Hopeless, broken, in the mud, and your glories rendered moot and forgotten by the grind of endless battle.

On one hand I love the lore of the final sacrifice of Sanguinius and totally love that it was because of him the the Big E could superkill Horus.

But on the other I want something for my BA capable of... Giving a rectal exam to Ghazghkull.

I mean, that has to be Lion El Johnson.
