You may want the 40k sub forum.

The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that.

The sizes are off: the Thanatar comes with a 120x92mm base whereas the Onager has a 160mm base and is a much wider and squatter model, and the Thallax are closer to terminator size with 40mm bases while kataphrons have 65mm bases and are much larger in general. Also, Thallax probably wouldn't be great for representing Kataphrons without modification as kataphrons are pretty slow (they can't make run moves) whereas Thallax are jetpack infantry.

Eh, fits as an onager. Nobody would care.
I use Vorax as Phosphor Kastelans, Castellax as power fist Kastellans, Myrmidon destructors as Kataphrons, Myrmidon Secutors as Kataphron Breachers. Thallax as Sicarian infiltrators, and I just bought skiitari infantry cus they're cool.

"Got you, Yugi! Your Rubric Marines can't fall back because I have declared the tertiary kaptaris ka'tah stance two, after the secondary dacatarai ka'tah last turn!"
"So you think, Kaiba! I declared my Thousand Sons the cult of Duplicity, which means all my psykers have access to the Sorcerous Facade power! Furthermore I will spend 8 Cabal Points to invoke Cabbalistic Focus, causing the rubrics to appear behind your custodes! The Vengeance for the Wronged and Sorcerous Fullisade stratagems along with the Malefic Maelstrom infernal pact evoked earlier in the command phase allows me to double their firepower, letting me wound on 2s and 3s!"
"you think it is you who has gotten me, yugi, but it is I who have gotten you! I declare the ever-vigilant stratagem to attack your rubrics with my custodes' ranged weapons, which with the new codex are now DAMAGE 2!!"
