>>52846233
>Everyone who plays 30k has an army of manlets.

This really busts my ass.

armor design is fine
guns look janky

I know they have the little computer dingles, but having mk7-style vambraces instead of mk-8 style vambraces doesn't make sense to me

"You must be this tall to be a Space Marine."

How about assigned them as sergents until you got enough to throw away the old ones?

>>52846210

Shit/10.

You realize this will be a new unit/army, right? There are direct from RG's fresh genestock, so they will be different.

The new 40k seems to be all about subfactions (like aos). Marines get RGs personal boys, Eldar get ynarri, chaos get troops for each God, etc. Tau will probably get more mercenaries or a flushed out army by that one rebel guy, and works might get something like revel grots, or Thrakka's personal army when his new model gets released.

I can finally buy truescale after 30years.

Those guys in the back share the same pose.
Snap fit?

>>52851231
I was about to say the same, but a lot of GW's new plastic kits have been really bad for variety in poses. Models have to be assembled in a particular way and can't really be varied or posed. So it wouldn't surprise me if the new super-Space Marines follow suit.

>>52851231
Posability and variance is dead and buried with GW's current kits.

>>52851248
>>52851257
Yeah I understand but it's the exact same pose

>>52851269
Take a look at, say, the Sigmarines. If you aren't vigilant to switch weapon heads, it's very easy to produce exact clones with that kit.

This gets me. I use to play around 3rd-4th, so I was used to the Tactical Marines box with a missile launcher and flamer, fuck you if you want choice, and missed the newer sprues with bloody everything.

Now they've gone back the other way, and for £7 for a single marine, one *has* to be doing something retarded with his legs.

>>52851284
Yeah sorry if I think about it i never bought any kit released after 2015, you may be right

They look shit.

I have never met a bunch of more pathetic whiners than the 7th edition joiners of this thread

>Space Marine not doing the power squat
>OH NO ALL MY OLD MARINES ARE WORTHLESS

This mentality reeks of /v/ crossposting.

>>52846233
Considering the new death guard look to be regular sized and these guys are almost up there with the gulliman model in terms of height,I'd say they're more a super space marine unit than an actual replacement for the standard marine.

With Robotnik bringing the custodes back to the fight, id assume more custodes would need to be made,but rather than do the full on training that they get,you make them as close as possible physically but then give them modified Marine armour instead and attach a handful to various chapters.

>>52851323
Just take a look at the sprues. We are pretty much 6th Edition of WHFB level of kits here, just with a shitton more bling. Bodies are one solid piece, weapons attached to arms, all you can do is choose which head and which arm you want to attach. Not necessarily bad, but good lord it's noticable with some kits.

>>52851363
>Almost up there with the gulliman model
>They're the size of the new Deathwatch and TS marines

Why, every thread, do we have people trying to spout stupid hyperbole opinion as fact.

I feel so good for dumping 40k years ago. Now I can start my army anew with truescale marines, while loyal playerbase gets an outdated manlet army as a reward.

Feels good not being a 40cuck.

>>52851362

>any criticism of a company with a mixed track record is some kind of astroturfing

Grow up mate.

I haven't played since 4th, got tired of GW trying to stretch the mechanics of a skirmish game and the boring big plastic kits that followed. This is just the next step in the obliteration of any grounding in 40k, to reduce even the Space Marines to cheerleaders to the next kit they want to sell. Basically what they did with AoS, where nothing matters any more, just that the kits are sold.

It's a legit business strategy, it's just weird seeing people eat it up rather than looking at the alternatives.

>>52851302
I will never not hate the nu-Wolfen

>>52851386
It's just idiots shitposting. Unfortunately it's just going to be a fact of life until the models are actually being sold.

>>52851420
>Any Criticism of a company

That's the thing, it's not criticism, it's whining. It's people whining about two/three screenshots we have seen Just like your very own fucking post is nothing but hyperbolic shit because you see a thing you dislike because it's not old.

That's the issue here, GW didn't just copy the same shit over and over and people like you, who don't play, never played and never will play again think it's bad that GW ever try something different.

I don't think you played in 4th edition bro, because every single criticism of the shit GW has pointed out amounts exactly to

>Muh old marines are not these new marines
>B-But pictures

Go back to /v/ with your shitty opinions.

Oh no, my older edition marines look smaller and worse than the new edition marines.

Were people complaining about the 3rd edition plastics that introduced Necks to space marines?

Were people complaining that the 2nd metals didn't skip leg day like the rogue trader marines?

I mean, the fact that people are legit crying about this shows they never went through an edition transition.

>>52851520
Everyone is a beaten housewife in the Wargaming industry because they're all overpriced little lumps of plastic or resin or metal.

Sounds like a plan to me.

>>52851372
What about custodes? Are they kinda monopose? I was wondering if i should start a small army

>>52851987
I don't own any, but looking at the sprues: Bodies and legs are separate, as are arms, heads, pauldrons and stuff, so there should be decent variety possible. No idea how the build in practice, their bling might get in the way of posing.

>>52852064
Sisters of slaughter are 11 piece each and only 1 way of glueing them without greentstuff.
also you cant switch any head, arms etc, each only have 1 body they glue with without heavy greenstuff

>>52852064
>>52852118
Thanks for the input. So you suggest a full army of custodes would require some work to look less copypaste? Fortunately I wouldn't need too many models since they cost a fair amount of points

>>52851557
>>52846210
I refuse to believe they'd force everybody to re-buy all their space marines. That would be a massive blunder.

>>52851923
I have a feeling 15 years of work won't be a problem for 3rd party bits makers, and it's not like they can't adapt and release true-scale bits during that time.

>>52846210
xTREME / 10

>>52852182
not actually tried it but looking at the minis i reckon you could get good milage out of Stormhost kits for extra variety in a custodes army.

>>52852212
Massive blunder as in
I'm not going to repurchase every single unit I already own
I'll just stack on the old models I can buy for huge discounts because of huge oversupplying every fucking store and supermarket of the first world
If someone wants to switch over to new scaled marines I will gladly buy their old models so I can play apocalypse scaled games while they play with their apocalypse scaled marines they acquired for the low price of 50€ per five models

>>52852212
they won't.

it'll just be like all the other countless times a mini update has changed its size. My 2e carnifex for example is smaller than my 4e one, but I've never had to replace them and they still time on the table even today.

>>52852399
Ah right that seems like it would fit. I'll look around
Thanks!

>>52846233
Pretty great. These new models look awesome and if they're the new normal for marines I'll gladly gradually phase out my old marines when I get the cash.

They usually aren't/weren't though. Some were smaller than some of the other meta or abhumans, but generally they were a head or so taller than any generic pure human mook model.

I bet these same morons swapped to 32mm which is a taller base.

Meanwhile us patricians are using the shorter, smaller 25mm bases and having much easier time dodging templates and hiding out of LoS from faggots like Tau. The marines being shorter as well only helps.

>>52861709
the concept was awesome.
Id rather have a new version of this than what we have now.

>>52861847
I'd like to see it come back as a new unit type. The current carnifex looks good in my opinion, and it has this lumbering murder machine appearance. It looks and feels like a biological tank. It's a weapons platform with legs that can shrug of anti-tank shells and lascannon blasts, and I like that feel with the current mini. But you're right the old carnifex does have this creeping unnatural terror to it. It feels like something out of the uncanny valley almost with that distorted yet human looking face, and the seemingly exposed rib cage it just looks scary. And that should be put into a new unit. Maybe rolled into a new breed of genestealers or something? It still looks limber, and could fit better in urban terrain so maybe a late stage shock trooper for genestealer cults. Something big, killy, and tough but not a living tank. Something between a warrior and a carnifex.

>>52860851

I could see them coming if they decide to focus on Abaddon, Huron, Lorgar, Perturabo, or maybe the Crimson Slaughter.

The Traitor Legions associated with the gods have always been popular and by focusing on them first they get to put our four diverse armies within the same range and their respective Daemon Primarchs.

>>52862063
I'd love this desu.

Something that emulates the role of the old 4th ninjafexes, or better yet, a speedy assault MC with just bio-plasma.

Looks like that thing could clamp onto the side of a tank and point blank plasma for fun times too.
