Subject: Kasrkin or Storm Troopers... Which are Better Models?
|
|

After recent discussions about the looks of Vostroyans, Cadians, Storm Troopers, and Kasrikin, I thought I'd start a poll. Just wondering where I stand amongst the Dakka community in terms of where my taste in figures lies...
So which do you think are better models:
Kasrkin?
Or the old Storm Trooper models.
Please not, I did not paint any of the above models.

I like the Kasrkin models a lot more, myself.

I also like the Karskin for the simple reason that I don't like the Stormtroopers face shields.

Kasrkin. They look quite Master Chief-ish, which I've always liked.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

Personally, I think Kaskrin are better sculpts while the old Storm Troopers were a better design.

Honestly I love the storm troopers, but I want to start a steel legion army and I think they fit better for the army. So well im a bit one sided on this.

I prefer the Kasrkin, to be honest. I think their masks (respirators? Gas masks? Helmets?) look better.

Kasrkin. The masks look real. The stormtrooper model masks make them look like Tusken raiders from Star Wars. No thanks...

I like the old Storm Troopers, but the Kasrkin, when they came out, just blew my socks off. Had to have 'em. They win.

As much as I like the Kaskrins, I would love to have some of the old stormtroopers.

I have both, but the Kasrkin are way better looking to me, so I use them.

I'd have to go with the Kasrkin, myself. I like thier multiple poses and the way thier armor matches the rest of the Cadian line. Stormtroopers would fit better with an Inquisitor army than an IG army in my own opinion.

I like both of them.
Not an either/or issue in my case.

At least the old storm troopers knew how to aim up instead of shooting into the ground.
I really like both, but I'm hoping that the plastic stormies will be like the old models, just updated and bigger.

Today I didn't even have to use my hot-shot las; I gotta say it was a good day. |

You see military units walking with their weapons to their shoulders all the time now. Probably what the modeler was going for...

Kasrkins have cooler helmets and chest armor.
