I don't like the way that might make sense in GW land. At all.

I'm calling them Mk2 Raptor for now, cause if the bit about them being make for Robute's blood of DNA of whatever if true that means it's pretty darn close to what Corax tried to do before in the heresy before Omegon put the kabosh on his plan.

To discus about Supersoldiers of a Genocidal Regime based around blind faith, you guys are trully cynical and sceptical.

Its not like calling this image legit mean you should go around internet screaming about how all its falling.

I think (Actually, I want to think it because this is better that I had anticipated) that this is actually legit.

Now I want to see the people that was those past months calling that the fluff of 40k will not be Age of Sigmarised.

A new mega dude in gold take care of all and bring a new crusade with new super soldiers to put away chaos ... yep. Totally not Age of Sigmar in my 40k.

And They Shall Not Fit Through Doors

Seriously?

Man, the usual "you're talking about fantasy so you should immediately suspend all disbelief in its stories" proclamation is bad enough, but "you're talking about a company that makes fantasy so you should immediately abandon... thinking about stuff?" is way too far.

Its was a joke, sorry :(
Next time I will use a Orkmoticon.

Warhammer Community team are sitting on the reveal, enjoying this thread far to much to post proof and end the civil war.

Why should they reveal their upcoming releases? Just because someone posts a (nearly finished) WIP conversion? I guess they're enjoying it though.

Apparently any post in this thread can get flamed, even the clearly silly. :-D

They were quick off the mark with Magnus and Gulliman

You need one of these.

Is it just coincidence that this supposed new marine is pictured next to one of the most diminutive guard models out there?

This is all so odd!

Maybe I should have used Orkmoticons too, but I'm far too German for this.

Those were legit and the leaks had a different level (GW publications or, in case of Ahriman, a sprue).

Didn't realise that Guard was particularly diddy? Is there a comparison pic for us to look at?

He's a 3rd edition guard model. They're all on the small side.

Hmm.. I have him tucked away in a shoe box somewhere, and he is pretty scrawny. He doesn't have any armour or anything else that might bulk him up a bit.

I just think it's bizarre that this ancient old sculpt is the one pictured next to a brand spanking new marine.

If I was into making true scale marines and wanted to emphasise how much larger they were, I might've opted for such shenanigans as well

That's what I was thinking before it was suggested he was a particularly short Guardsman.

What model is it?
Last Chancers?

In theory, it's only about a fortnight before we might know for sure - because that's Adepticon, innit. And the Studio have promised much.

Whilst I think this is just an impressive conversion, as before I'm happy to eat my words

Demo charge guy from Last Chancers.

Any chance you could give us an image of him next to a regular marine, or, *crosses fingers* a Deathwatch marine?

Here's a group shot of the Last Chancers.

He may be very slightly smaller than Schaeffer, but that could mean Schaeffer's model is tall for a Guardsman as much as show this bloke is short?

They may have Dwarf or Elf reveals.

Wonder when GW will shows us some proper pics.

Real fo sho!

So taller than a Deathwatch marine (flat out taller in the picture, also due to the angle).

I'll be very interested to see the parts breakdown, and how easy it would be to remove the Imperial Eagle.

He is really growing on me. Depends on how they do it in the rules though. Would be nice if they became say T5 2+ veterans with some better wargear, and shift Terminators to being 2 W.

After reading the last six pages of SM bickering, I think I'm in the wrong thread. I'mma take Alpharius' advice.
