I am very impressed by these models. Cult overall is amazing, but I don't think the line has one single not-good sculpt. Also I am sure many will use these models for conversions, for sure Ork and Guard players. Calgar and the Guard are amazing. I like the pose and the general model of the Chaos Lord, they over-designed only the jump pack this time, but is easily modified. Not completely sold on the "face", too.
Also - is there someone left with the delusion that smaller marines will not go? I mean it should have been evident from the first new chaos sculpts but... well.

Generic characters disappearing? Elite units of your army losing options and customizations? No longer finding that motivation to convert?

Calgar and his Honour Guard are magnificent. Calgar looks huge, and I like that the Gauntlets look more archaic than the rest of the armour, that's nice attention to detail. I'd like to see a whole box for those Honour Guard too.
I like Haarken, though I'm not entirely sold on his head situation, I think it might be the goggle look.
I don't really care for the GSC stuff, though it seems in keeping with their aesthetic so that's good.
Love Karanak and the Fleshhounds, I'll have to find someone to buy the Slaanesh half of Wrath and Rapture from me, becuase I still want none of that.
The Noise Marine looks really cool too, he's a nice call back

The best part about Marneus Calgar having an helmet is that when they redo Primaris-Azrael maybe he will be able to wear the Lion's Helmet too. Or at least have a fancy feathered helmet.
Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

That's definitely a good point. I always hated that there wasn't an Azrael wearing the Lion Helm.

Wait... I missed that. Where can we find a picture of Calgar with his helmet on?

It's in this thread, a few pages back.

I really like the bikes. Those are some good models. Its not enough for me to want to make a GSC army, as I already have a lot on my plate. But those are some fine minis. GSC still need their pimp mobile though.

I love the GSC stuff. I don't play full 40k any more but I have an ever expanding GSC kill team that I've really been enjoying and it's going to be tough not to pick up the bikers just for painting.

You get a MOON BUGGY and GENESTEALER BIKER GANGS.
And still you want pimp mobiles?
Geez you can't please everyone I guess...

To stay in line with the new aesthetic, it will be a stretch Hummer on monster truck wheels.

What an awesome selection of releases! I must have that noise marine and the gsc bikers are fantastic. Even the usually boring ultramarines look good, those honour guard are especially badass.
The warlord does look a little unbalanced but when it eventually makes its way into Titanicus scale I will be adding it to the collection anyway just for the huge gun
