Don't get me wrong, I understand that people have different tastes but making this huge drama about rumours is something I can not understand.
Let's say GW releases a new chapter with bigger marines on 40mm and new boxes of these models for existing chapters. We still can use our old minis but also have a possibility to pick new ones. Where is the problem? I really can't find one

Super Siegmarine Space Marine God Space Marine.

I just hope the arms are compatible with Custodes, so I can have cheaper alternatives for Sagittarum Guard.

I don't really think that someone will force you to buy them. If GW will release bigger marines on 40mm bases you will have to rebase them for official tournaments at worst and that's all. You can still use all old models if you have rules for them - even squats
>>

No, you can dislike whatever you want. Just don't make shitposting ideology around it like saltyfags on 40k. It's okay if you have your opinion but well - if it is based on "waaaaaaah I don't want new thing" then how should I call it? It's not even criticism - it's a shitposting. Sadly, this is how most posts on 40kg look like right now

We don't really know where we will end up with Gathering Storm and 8e. Maybe BigMarines will end up as separate faction or GS will take us few decades into future with all chapters made up with BigMarines. Who knows?

Movie marines rules will become official. All other marines will worship their SPIRITUAL LIEGE and accept their own inferiority.

>>52123026
I like it. Now I don't have to struggle making Truescale marines. I kinda wish they really were truescale and had tiny heads to go with the suit but I guess I can just convert it to be so.

Now this sucks because this is how SM were supposed to be when you look at the art, and now all other collections of marines dwarf in comparison to these ubermenches.

the manlet marines are what makes me sad. Here you have all these newly released marines (1kSons, Deathwatch, HH Marines), and then a year later GW says Nope, take a look at these newly proportioned, cooler looking giant marines that (probably) make even your terminators look like manlets!

The group of lads I game with play more for the narrative than the competition and this while it's beautiful, is gonna make their nice looking armies look like manlets. Calling them a new breed of SM sounds like horsepucky. They're what the SM should have looked like

And as I said let's not forget the AoS precedent which turns all old armies (except daemons and VC) into irrelevant sidekicks for new super-soldiers armies (Ironjaws, Stormcasts, fireslayers etc), both rule and fluff wise (because let's be honest fluff is one of the main thing which holds people in Warhammer)

I've always wanted True Scale Marines and the current range always deterred me into only playing Xenos. Eldar are supposed to be 2m+ so their models are fine fo me.
If this is true I will drop a grand easily on a nu-space marine army. Give them 2W and I'm happy.

Now all GW has to do is announce plans to add all the xenos races to 30k, and make them wayyyyy better than the marines, and the asspain from the collective fanbase will rip a real hole in the materium, so the gw cultists have access to their masters, as was ever their plan.

Not only does it fix the scale of the marines but it also fixes the scale of the bolters too! Yes please! I want this now. Immediately.

I don't even care if it gets new fluff or not. I would be more than happy if this is just what marines and bolters look like now.

Agreed. This is why I collect Tau. I was holding out until marines would eventually get the makeover they needed or until I felt motivated enough to make artscale. Tau are perfectly fine being depicted as the tiny aliens that get stomped on a regular basis.

not anymore than the deathwatch minis did

demo man's making the marine seem larger than it actually is. 25mm bases are slightly shorter than 32mm ones, and the (bulk of the) last chancers models were short even for metal guardsmen.
>>
>>52125526
But if it's official model why would they use old half-painted LastChanser instead of current marines/scions etc?

>>52125695
Why would GW ardered someone to paint Chancer?
>>
>>52125822
They didnt, they probably told him/her to assemble the marine kit and paint it, possibly for a photoshoot or to test the kit or something. The last chancer is probably his own personal project and the marine is his job.

>>52123537

You're already running manlet marines if you're still using 25mm

Okay.

And sure, a painter is a painter even if he has an unfinished conversion/mock-up/WIP on his wooden GW desk. But he probably won't paint it.

Okay guys, what do we see here. A conversion, and not a bad one (it has some flaws though). It could be used for a resin or metal miniature when it's finished, but GW don't need something like that anymore for their plastic kits. And Roboute's Guillimen will be plastic for sure.

>>52123026
So, the Nu-Marine faction is basically what happens when the most boring Space Marine armour mark meets Stormcast Eternals. Gotcha.

I'm still not 100% convinced that it's not just a really well-disguised artscale SM conversion, since some parts of it look off (feet are made of lighter plastic than the rest, the long bolter-thing looks kind of wonky), but eh. I wouldn't be surprised if it's legit. As long as they don't stop supporting Space Marines, it's no big deal.
>>
>>52133385
Yes. And then they'll scale up the Land Raider. And then the various xeno start growing as well. And then there's a new guardsman kit where everyone's the size of the new marines. So people start making "truescale" marines scaled after the guardsmen. And so on. Keep your eyes peeled for a plastic Imperator Titan in some years
>>
>>52123026
I like them, but this thing bothers me.
Current marines are not up to scale, their legs are bit shorter.
But everything else from rhino to landraider is eaven more fucked up.
And now eaven bigger marines are coming to make tanks eaven smaller.

It's conversion, and a damn good one, but still a conversion. The bolter has bits from an autogun, the backpack is most likely based on the multimelta backpack, the legs are Tartar sauce with Sigmarines kneepads, and you can see the line where the chest piece as been cut and added to so it looks bigger and bulkier.

True-scale conversion and nothing more. Stop being so asspained.

Cause I've never seen one that clean, not a scormark, rough seam, shiny glued area, scuffed surface from removed detail or misaligned angle.

Until now they've all been a single piece with ball socket "hips", that one looks off, unless they've inverted it so the torso carries the call and the hips have the socket.

I just refuse to believe they'd do it.
If its for the scale then I'm all for it, but it seems far too much effort for them to bother with. Good chunk of the army range works off the current silhoutte and would need updated similarly. Considering that CSM still dont have plastic Devastator/Vet equivalents, I don't have faith they'd be able to update every necessary range.

If its just a new model/type of armour then fair enough, but just not what I want to see. I'd prefer they start homogenising things which makes sense and updating what needs updated instead of just adding to the bloat.

Check for yourself, that is Hastings straight up saying that some bullshit which was made up was "Exactly what I was told."
