WHAT

THEY'RE USING OTHER COLORS?! GREY IS LITERALLY THE ONLY COLOR ALLOWED TO PUT IN PLASTIC!

Colored plastic doesn't bother me at all...unless that makes it expensive for some reason

>>54004545

I'm not even trolling dude. Go to the community site and see for yourself.

>>54004603
You realize you've been assembling colored plastics all this time or did you think plastic was naturally grey?.

>>54004514
The captain and the librarian were literally announced as having options. They also said non monobuild version of these guy would be coming later.
These are designed for the poorfag starter set.
>>54004569
Again, these stopgap kits are designed for the poorfag version of the starter set, or expansion of the starter set for richfags

>>54004514

This isn't news

>>54004514
>Is this the way going forward?

Yes.

>Are poseable, customizable kits a thing of the past?

Yes.

GW asked us what we thought yesterday and nobody disagreed. If you don't like this you should have been in the thread yesterday and said something.

I heard they're discontinuing Orks too. My uncle works and Nintendo so he knows.

>>54004514

Considering all these models are from starter sets, and damn near every starter set has been monopose and snapfit for a while already, followed by a release of boxed generic models in multipose, this means very little.

Well, a lot of horde units like Cultists stay monopose, so Poxwalkers are likely to remain that way. Looking at their models, it's hard to imagine they can be built any other way, actually.

And with that comment, you've boxed yourself into a corner. Either you're being deliberately obtuse and pretending to not know what he's talking about, which makes you a shameless dick head, or you genuinely don't know what he's talking about, which makes you a fucking idiot.

Which is it?

>>54004553
I still have a blue set of genestealers.

>>54004514
I would like them to hurry the fuck up with the modular kits so I can make my black templars, but I do think they're coming, the entire reason the shoulders are the same size on these guys is to allow kitbashing, GW does still love that sort of stuff. And the snapfit captain has options, somehow. Again, GW kind of realised people were getting tired of monopose non customisable HQs for 25 squids, at least give us options.
Also, getting annoyed about coloured plastic? Really? When you could be annoyed about, I don't know, 85% of all GW support being ultramaries, with some other marine chapters getting some units too? As opposed to replacing 2nd ed phoenix lords and warbuggies?

I'd honestly play a game where you're a space marine trapped in his own armor by warp/xeno fuckery, it would be a nice change from all the times they're more or less in harmony

I like them, and they're going to look even better than standard nu-Marines with Alpha Legion shoulder pads and colours.

But ya know, I'm not sure how I feel about the aesthetic changes to 40K. On the one hand the 80's style to everything was part of what I really liked about it. But on the other hand a lot of this new shit looks real nice and takes a lot from the 2nd greatest decade, the 90's!

Their feet are weird. It looks like they're wearing those booster boots that has heels inside the shoes to make you taller like pic related.
Are they secretly marinelets?

>>54004514
Kind of weird seeing Marines with pouches to be honest.

>>54005609
Its the angle. They have "dynamic" poses which means their rear foot is lifted like they are walking forward.

You are looking at the top of their boots, not the front.

>>54005438
K

I love the pouches and stuff on them but the feet weird me out a bit but then I think i could get used to that. I would love to see more mix of tacticool and baroque-ness on their armor as well. At the very least the smurffs should be going full roman with the tassets around their waists along with a holster for their bolt pistols and pouches for spare ammo.

>>54005003
>because the first time anyone ever thought of a skull face mask was for Mad Max...

>>54004514
It looks like they just took a Dark Reaper face and put it on a space marine. Are these things supposed to be chaplains? Looks like a real lazy, crappy bunch of models.

>>54004603
I suggest you go there yourself and read a little better.

>>54010838
They are obviously loyalist Night Lords. They just hid their bat wing ears.

>>54004830
How is it any different? Feel free to make a single argument.

>>54004514
Librarian and Captain weren't easy to build kits.

>>54005438
What you do with your minis is no concern of mine.

>>54004514
You make it sound like them being easy to build is a bad thing. Why wouldn't you want the hobby to be a little easier for new people to get into?

Kids friendly minis -> kids friendly game -> kids friendly setting = Overwatch 40k
People care about uniqeness of their hobby

No they are not. Those are all starter set models. Evey starter set in the history of Warhammer had monopose easy to build models.

They havent released actual primaris marine kits yet

>>54004514
GW knows its fans are retards, don't want things to be complicated.

>>54008122
its clearly a homage to mm though, you stupid cunt jesus all of 40k is a homage to something else and when someone points it out now (probably because its a new release) you're going to act stuffy about it? fuck off

are you retarded? 8th is heavily influenced by AoS and even though that crowd had concerns about monopose-snapfit they were treated with multipart kits soon afterwards, heck the new captain kit is already a multipart kit but you would know that if you could fucking read at a 3rd grade level
>There’s no Chapter specific iconography on the model, meaning whichever Space Marine Chapter you collect, you’ll be able to paint and personalise your Primaris Captain to match. The kit also has options for different heads and weapons, allowing for even greater customisation

Tell us what? That Vindicar assasins wears generic black latex?

The coloured plastic is of a different quality. Good details but harder to cut.

CoD skull mask.

>>54020379
>>54019675

I like their design too. The skull is needlessly edgy, and the models look bad because of their shit poses, but the armor design is fine. The people wanting to add ab plates and shin armor to them and turn them into BASIC FUCKING INTERCESSORS are retards who probably thought the Centurion and Dreadknight were good looking models.

Who cares? 40k has always been a mix/ripoff of cool stuff with gothic sci-fi. Get over it.
I hate the fluff if primaris with all my guts, but as longs as the models look good it's really not that much of a problem.

>>54029000
Except there is no gothic sci-fi

>>54019940

>>54021595
It's the knife and pistol that causes me to lose it.
The entire point of the space marine, for me, is ridiculous weaponry. Seriously, I'm getting the feeling that none of the Primaris have been taught what a fucking sword is, and that the Captain only has one to point at things when he gives commands.

>>54029223
So 40k now is just generic sci-fi.

In the cutting, gluing and sculpting you fucking baby.
MUH MULTIPART PLASTIC KITS are fucking shit tier for customization, because everything looks the fucking same anyway. You only have a very narrow range of viable poses in the first place or it it's going to look like dogshit. Kitbashes are just that, mixing together the same few premade plastic bits. Grow some fucking balls and work with greenstuff, even shitty kids playing LotR fifteen years ago were able to follow tutorials to give their dudes unique weapons and poses.

>>54030367
Yeah, it's a real bummer when I can give my guardsmen plasma and meltaguns without having to cut their moulded on lasguns to pieces and slap some mangled weapon I salvaged from another model on there. Or swap or repose the head without drilling out the old one and finding a suitable alternative.

Real shame when I can't have a unit of monopose models with some greenstuff and hackjobs.

>>54030877
I don't see why you bother trying to argue with someone who genuinely believes that having fewer choices can be good.

>>54030903
But I agree with him. Fuck convenience and actually having all your options. I'd rather have my units equipped with what's in the box, regardless of how useful it is, and would rather destroy 3 models to make one slightly different model, than just glue some pieces together. This plastic multi-part existence is horrible and it must stop!

>>54004514

>Vindicare Stealth Suit

This item of Vindicare wargear appears as a matte-black bodyglove, specially fitted for the individual Assassin. The Vindicare Temple has a long-standing pact with the Adeptus Mechanicus to craft these exquisite suits, each one combining Cameleoline-laced materials with a complex version of "synskin" to allow its wearer to blend in with his environment. This material bonds with the Assassin’s body, enhancing his reflexes and protecting him from poisons, gases, and other hazards of the battlefield. Each suit is supple and silent, allowing the Assassin to move with perfect freedom whilst still retaining its protective and chameleon qualities.
