Primarch miniatures release list

[Tyrannicide]

Guilliman is obligatory for me. Beyond that is a toss up. I know I won't get more than 2 or 3, but I'd definitely like to get a Russ. I love Leman.

And that sneak of Horus is very convincing. I'm sure he'll be one of the best.

EDIT: And I'll add that Curze is turning out to be one my favorite Traitor Primarchs, so hopefully his model is suitably equal parts gruesome/awesome.

[Emperor's Furor]

I want to see Vulkan and Khan. Vulkan's armour should be magnificently detail and I hope the skull on his shoulder is quite large.

[Sparika]

I would like to get Sanguinius and Horus. Maybe Dorn.

 

And the Emperor ... That's mandatory.

[GrandMagnus]

Of course, the Emperor is mandatory for all true loyalists. 

[Entei]

Alpharius might already be in my collection... if you get what I mean.

[DuskRaider]

...And the Emperor ... That's mandatory.

 

Well you're in luck, the true Emperor is supposed to be released after Lorgar.

[Conn Eremon]

Uh, source? They're releasing the Emperor before Hor--ohhhh.

[GrandMagnus]

[Scribe]

Holy :cuss that killed me. Laughing.so.hard.

 

(BTW, I like Lorgar, likely to be my first Primarch.)

[Sons of Horus]

I think Horus should be last along with the Emperor

[Greyall]

He probably will...the spikier Horus, though. Chorus.

 

Anyway, it is as Noctus said: Primarchs, unlike the other minis, are as much an artistic piece as a commercial product (or close to). Constrain their creation too much and you wind up with a pressured sculptor who'll likely rush some parts of the mini.

 

With three models already released, Simon Egan has managed to, all in all, keep the same standard of excellence for all of them, expecially in attention to detail. It's remarkable.

 

Better to wait for an excelent thing than get a good one right away, usually.

[Kol Saresk]

 

He probably will...the spikier Horus, though. Chorus.

So he'll be the part of the song where everyone sings along?

[Greyall]

He will, Horus will never lose his talent as a soprano.

 

Being the ecletic type, though, he'll also come with a chaotic guitar so he can do an amazing solo while the Emperor bleeds from the eyes and tries to differentiate the black-plated, spike, fur and skin-covered behemoth beating him to death from his son.

[The Highlander]

My personal must buys are Sanguinius,Night Haunter,Horus & Russ

[The Highlander]

Im gonna buy Sanguinius, Curze, Russ and Horus. Was gonna go for Lorgar, but I can't stand the model

[GrandMagnus]

Were have you seen a mini of Lorgar?

[Balthamal]

Plus I can see FW not wanting to completely hack off the loyalists by having 5 out of the 1st 6 being traitors. Especially since the latter loyalist heavy books will be balanced out by the daemonically altered primarch models

[Kol Saresk]

Were have you seen a mini of Lorgar?

The completed mini was shown at Games Day. There's also pics of a painted Lorgar as well.

 

The mini looks better without the paintjob.

[GrandMagnus]

Holy ! Well, I think it looks good.

[The Highlander]

Its amazingly well sculpted, but he's just too static and uninteresting compared to the others. I get how he's meant to be the kind of primarch who would be standing patiently waiting for you to pull the first blow, but he should still be moving a bit I think.

[Grotsmasha]

Imo, just putting a pistol in his empty hand would've done wonders......I'm still gunna get Lorgar, because I'm going to be getting them all....but a pistol would've helped.

 

Cheers,

Jono

[Greyall]

Not all characters need a dynamic pose, I think. I can see Magnus or Guilliman adopting a more static, regal stance which goes along better with their image.

[Daddywarcrimes]

Some primarchs are unstoppable forces.  Some are immovable objects.  Dorn, all but demands a pose so static that he look more like a statue than living being.  Guilleman and Perturabo should be intently studying a drafting table or hololith, with Magnus staring off into the infinity that this the Great Ocean.  Lion stands, en garde, patiently waiting for his opponent to make a misstep that opens a gap to kill.  Curze and Curax could be mirrors of each other, one stalking the shadows and the other pouncing from them.  Vulkan and Mortarion stomp forward as the unstoppable forces in contrast with Dorn's immovable object, with Khan and Russ in mid-strike like Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus.  Hopefully Sanguinus is posed in the impact crater he made when he arrived on the surface of Melchoir at the beginning of Fear to Tread.

 

I'll be kind of let down if all of them are in the "yelling while swinging a weapon" pose, but while I'd expect that from GW Prime, the FW sculptors seem to have far more vision than that.

 

By the way, am I the only one expecting (or hoping) to see Sanguinus have the option to move as a Swooping Flying Monstrous Creature?

[Blindhamster]

if Sanguinius can't move as such I'd be surprised, but I also expect him to be almost silly in points cost. It would be in keeping with the 40k BA characters lol

[The Highlander]

I think Sanguinius should be leeping off a rock with his arms in that position you see on the cover of Fear to Tread. And the wings must be epic.
