Primaris Champion


Mugruk Da Watcha


Interestingly the Champion is a Legends datasheet.

PCC is pretty cool. At least it’s an interesting pose.

I’m hopeful these will be available at WHW’s 25th Anniversary, as I feel a Lootin’ Spree coming on.

Okay, so it's meant to be a rock on the orruk's head and not some gribbly thing's eye.

It's nothing super special, but I like the primaris model more than previous exclusive primaris guys (although the dude holding half his helmet was cool.) He would make a better emperor's champion than the current model IMO, just needs a change to wrap around his wrist.

Mugruk would make a good wyrdboy.
He looks much better than that beast wyrdboy thing they released for Orks.

I like the PCC. Orc shaman could be nice fodder for conversions.

Nice to see a primaris company champion. As I’m putting together a battle company I was trying to figure out what I was going to do for that position. Was just going to give the nod to the judicair to fill the role, but might need to get my hands on this guy.

Love both of these.

I get it, event exclusives, but I hate missing out on such great models. I wish it were just early access.

That's not hard. The Beet Snackas Wurrboy is pretty much just a regular boy that has gotten drunk and ripped his shirt off.

Thats why we have the loot group. To avoid paying scalper prices (like ebay, where some is selling the store birthday inquisitor for $110 USD)

Already putting out feelers (well, asking GW!) if these will be available at WHW’s 25th.

If so I’ll loot some. If I don’t get confirmation but they are there, I’ll see what I can do to grab some.

Cool models. I really like the champion, that's a very cool pose. But Legends rules for a brand new model! What?

Legends for now, I guess. Especially if rumour of yet another Maureen Codex is accurate.

Not impressed by the Champion. Aside from his upper body pose, the model is flocking bland as

The orruk shaman guy looks cool but since I don't play AoS, he also gets a pass.

But that's cool, I can concentrate on saving money for previous year's exclusives (and their scalper prices!)

I like the Champion. He's at least got an unusual pose.

The Primaris champion is really nice, and definitely fills a gap in the Primaris line. Too bad it's Legends only, but I understand not making a datasheet for a limited model.

Are there two different severed hand guys? Could have sworn we've already seen a hand guy.

Think this one was available at LVO?

Yes.

Yawn, another Primaris Marine. Must be a day ending in a Y...

Yawn, another post complaining about marines. Must be a day ending in Y....

My only wish is that it was a Lieutenant for a decent triggering effect, instead we got a reasonably cool looking champion.

I haven't played 9th, what are triggering effects?

As in triggers the ravening hordes of people whose only purpose on the forums is to complain/praise the marine releases. Personally not bothered either way, but the fireworks are always something special when marines get a release.

That was... really mean ? Unnecessarily so maybe ?

It's been a long day, cheeky humour might not have carried through my apologies

Fair ! I had a long day too. Plus, I've had difficult experiences with some people who talk about "triggers" that way

Why make it insta-Legends?

I speculated earlier it might be in advance of the rumoured new SM Codex?

Because it's a new unit with a very limited release, and it's better than not having rules at all?

Yes, that's what I'm thinking too. If so, there will be another model when the codex is released so that the rules can be used more widely.

I'm only playing crusade/ PL games so using legends is perfect for me, I'll certainly try to snag one when I can. Even if I do end up personalising him the base pose is a great starting point. It did make me wonder if space marines ever do half-swording, or if that's even possible with a power sword.

Oddly there aren't any rules up, perhaps they'll only be included with the model.

Can you get same unit(even if in different pose) in regular store? If not avoids pay to win.
