The Warhammer 40k Thread

[Local Trouble]

It'll be strange if they have the characters use contemporary profanity.  I don't recall any F-bombs in the 40k novels I've read.

There's one or two, but they're rare. It's usually "feth". Shit, bitch, bastard, etc show up more regularly.

"Feth," huh?  That's a new one to me.  I'll have to watch for it.

I just hope they give Dan Abnett a certain amount of creative control so they can maintain the proper level of immersion.

Anyone else seen those Bandai large scale Space Marine model kits?

Are they actually kits? I thought they were just pre-built action figures/dolls.


*edit*

Yup:

It's a fully painted, 7-inch-tall Primaris Space Marine, featuring multiple points of articulation, exchangeable weapons, and all sorts of other cool details, brought to life on a new scale

Now that's something I might actually buy.  Especially if there's a wide variety of chapters and not just Ultramarines.

However, I'm not interested in painting them myself.

...Is that a Saurus Warrior riding a Lictor?

I don't know if anyone's talked about this here but Bandai is making a Primaris Space Marine figure. I think it's gonna be fully painted but I haven't seen what Chapter they'll do. Kind of hope there's more than one. Anyway this is it, he's a pretty big boy



Also can someone tell me if the Inquisitor game is worth getting? I heard it's shit but I'm a sucker for Warahmmer and Diablo so yeah.

Yes, a fan art.

Definitely not a GW lizardman, but it might be some obscure 40k xeno race. I'm of the opinion it's prolly somebody's RPG character from DnD that they've shoehorned into other settings (see also; Riddick).

I don't know if anyone's talked about this here 

Two posts above yours

I still wonder how customizable they'll be.  I'd also like to see a Chaos Marine in that scale.

The two pictures I saw of them at some con they were grey so I assumed they were unbuilt/unpainted kits (kind of like their current star wars stuff).
I'll probably pick one or two up depending on the price, and I agree about them making a chaos marine to compliment it.

Can't wait to see how the Eisenhorn TV series will turn out.

Anyone got a chance to look at the new Space Marines codex yet?

[The Kurgan]

I only skimmed through it.

The book seems to have tons of options, with custom chapter tactics reminiscent of their 4th edition book.

Intercessors got a lot of exclusive stratagems, generally there is a shift towards primaris again and away from the classic marines. But that was inevitable at some point.
