Pretty great video. It's good GW can laugh at themselves. Looks like all my scouts are being junked.

This stuff all looks great. Hopefully CSM gets some rules fixes too, but i'll probably collect this stuff even if they don't.
There’ll be more than three in the box I’d have thought.
As they said that’s not all the models in it.
And looking at the other boxes they’ve done, normally quite a good model count.

We are still missing some of the imperium side, they revealed the sniper and the librarian, but there should be two other units, one of them probably heavy to counter the new obliterators.

I am mostly happy that Games Workshop has mostly shown they are updating the Chaos Space Marine models rather than making a Primaris equivalent or some other new fangled unit. I have no issues with the shown new marine sculpts and even quite like the Obliterator model. I can take or leave the vemoncrawler, but I am sure someone will like it quite a bit.

Thank goodness no primaris CSM, but god everything out of that box looks amazing. The new Primaris, the new Chaos, I love it all. I'll be getting at least one of those boxes...
maybe two...

It's a good problem to have 
All that chaos stuff is on point. Glad I held off on converting new oblits for my BL.
Damn, I like the new primaris libby a lot too. I like the leather details, it adds a cool renaissance vibe like the custodes armor has.

Love the look of the new chaos but if they are monopose again, not buying them, the tick is very nice, Abby looks good from what we've seen, chaos marines look as they should (with above caveat), the obliterator thing looks like total crap though... Total swing and a miss there, just looks like a hellbrute with a couple extra guns.

I really like these new primaris. Can’t wait to see what else is in the box.

I'm glad I didn't bought more sniper scouts. They improve a lot when you put Tempestus helmets on them but... those are just much better.

So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

Just when you thought it was safe to start a new army...
GW drops another box set with sweet new models. Thankfully I'm almost done painting my Space Marines and might even have some money by the time this new release drops.

I'm half expecting that Games Workshop will also do a Kill Teams release right alongside Shadowspear. I mean, the new Kill Team boxes have included a Commander and a unit of guys. It's easy enough to come up with an idea of what the Primaris box would look like: the Vanguard Librarian and a squad of the Vanguard Primaris. Not sure what the Chaos Kill Team would look like.

Also suddenly made a pretty hard about face in regards to Oblits. This must be one of the most drastic model updates ever in terms of replacing a bad sculpt with a decent one.
Kinda sold on The Tick too.
Still not sure a new Abby can bring me over to the Black Legion though. There is an extremely high chance those Chaos models will be joining the World Eaters!

We'll find out soon enough eh.

As with all the Primaris stuff so far the fluff does nothing for me, but the models have a lot of potential. Somebody at GW really does have a fetish for the word "Vanguard" though.
The Chaos kits look lovely, but still too titchy for my taste. I think I'll reserve judgement on the new Oblits.
The Sister looks amazing.

Will there be a vanguard unit called a vanguard that vanguards the vanguard or will the vanguard vanguard the vanguards while vanguarding the vanguard?

Gobsmacking work again by Gdubs, everything looks great. Only issue I have with is fluff-wise, since the description for Vanguard seems very similar to what Reivers are supposed to do, just less emphasis on terror tactics and more on infiltration.

Its an expansion on the reiver, same armour, including Librarian. This was mentioned in the seminar.

Well that all looks great, cant wait to see what else is in the box.
I guess these Vanguard Primaris are the Scout company's replacement? The non skull helmed "Reivers" with tactical markings and the guy at the back with a servo skull in the artwork especially intrigue me. If GW are going to expand the other MKX armour variants then I really think its time to start revising that fluff about chapter size limits before they paint themselves into a corner.
The new CSM look like everything I ever wanted from them ever since the Dark vengeance models were released. The only slight downside is they might follow the Primaris in having the torso and legs as a single piece. But personnaly I'm ok with that as it does IMO give much better looking models. The new Oblit looks like an absolute beast, as does the Venom crawler
