Black Marshal Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I have no idea what this thing is i was hopeing that you guys could help me identify it. I know it is a pre heresy terminator but it is really large to large for a standard marine. i was wondering if he was a named charater or something if you know what it is please let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 It's not a GW model, looks like a Scibor mini to me so wouldn't be a primarch. Doesn't stop you from using him as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vharing Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Looks like it would make a good Emperor except for the death mask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 It's not from Games Workshop. Looks like something from Scibor or some an imitator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azatoth Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Purely based on the model and its look, I would say it is from SCIBOR, polish guys who sells minitures of his own design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbusePuppy Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 It's definitely not a GW miniature, if for no other reason than it appears to be made of resin. I'd say it's some kind of Huron fig (due to the claw), but the Chaplain head pretty much kills that idea as well. It doesn't match any of the Scibor or Forge World models I'm familiar with, either, nor any other third-party manufacturer that springs to mind. It could be an out-of-production or one-off model, but I can't really say. Does the sprue it came on have any markings? That's often a good clue to where something came from.

Black Marshal Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 when i bought it there was no spure and the guy i bought it from did not even know he had it he just threw it in with a bunch of random space marine stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan the Lurker Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Could be a Kabuki "Sci-Fi Knight": http://www.kabukimodels.com/index.php?go=produkty&id=7 Or possibly from HiTech: http://hitechminiatures.com/2/product/product/ Not sure that Scribor has done a Chaplain type fig as of yet: http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?group=7 It definitely is not a GW fig.

Eorek Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Well my Guess would be a chaplain(missing a crozious arcanum though) ... The feel he gives me is Luna wolves ( mostly due to claw... it's very horus like) and he seems evil somehow, it could be a custodes (very pimped armour) The only markings this guy has though is the imperial eagel(could be a wing...) which points him towards being a dark angel, blood angel or Emperors children.... What weapons did abbadon wield prior to him taking the claws of horus? if he had a claw: this could very well be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander S. Caesare Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 For a second i was like HORUS! but i saw the the SB on the right hand. But that's an awesome Talon for a Horus model though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calgar101 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I'd say that is some one else's version of Abaddon.. Seems to small to be Horus in my opinion.. Yes, that would make a perfect Abaddon stand in.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splicer407 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Dunno what he is, but looking at him he'd make a good Horus or Abaddon conversion base... I'd love to have him for my own Terminator Lord, but unfortunately I'm not allowed to buy stuff over the net. I agree he's definitely not GW. I think I'll save this pic and model my Termi Lord after his armor actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apothecary Vaddon Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 You're certain it's all one figure? It almost looks like a bunch of different pieces mashed together that fit really well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisada Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Looks like a Scibor model for sure. Considering how close it looks to GW models it looks like an older one when Scibor made stuff that looked very close to GW models but I think Scibor probably had to back off because of GW legal. Basis for my speculations: 1. Scibor used to sell some 'templar' knights that looked perfect for Black Templar (damn I wish I bought them for my BT back then but funds were short) but now they are only in his gallery and listed as "not for sale". 2. Look at your model's leg armor and power fist and then look at some of Scibor's stuff, very similar. ex: http://sciborminiatures.com/pow.php?absol=1&co=i/monst/big/emperorp_painted01.jpg 3. Your model clearly looks like he's wearing TDA. You can see in Scibor's gallery that his older stuff looked very much like GW models. Jealous that you were able to get your hands on such a cool mini like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson Cartel Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Couldn't say who it is supposed to be, but for a model that just got "thrown in," thats one bad ass model! Lucky You! -CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Emperor's Champion Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I'd say it's a Scibor Horus or something of the sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I'd use him as Abaddon. He's near-perfect for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOBMAKENZIE Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 It's definitely not a GW miniature, if for no other reason than it appears to be made of resin. If only GW were to make some sort of finely cast resin product. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Marshal Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 yeah i am certain he is all one piece and after going threw the bits that the guy threw in there is even more to the model including wings on the eagle on his head and two eagles on each pauldron. and another layer to the cape. I agree he is not GW and he does look like the older Scibor minies. and it is all of these points that really confuse everybody and i think the most confusing part of the model is the death mask which is mostly for chaplians. so many questions no answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Wolf Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm pretty sure that it is one of the models done by a chap in Russia called Velard. He trades on E bay as Mrs Velard or as Vlad miniatures. Well known for his "not" primarch models amongst other things All the best White Wolf ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
