Luca Pacioli Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Awesomesauce!!!! Is that an eviscerated artificer armour piece!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockwithaticket Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Our stuff looks pretty good, might actually pick the sprue up. That winged skull bit I must have by the thousand and a new death mask is welcome given that I don't wish to recycle any of the Sanguinary Guard ones for my counts-as characters. Wish they'd give the nipple torsos a bit of a rest, though.Transfers are ok, bit disappointed there doesn't seem to be anything for the successors now that the FW sheet is gone.The hammer and shield on that assault sergeant look awfully stubby, hopefully it's just a bad angle. It looks like the vanilla marines are going to get rules for an actual eviscerator/heavy chainsword given that you get one with the assault squad. If any chapter ought to have rules for that piece of wargear it should be us. We've got the only marine in 40k since at least 3rd ed. (Seth), who actually has one! I feel the black rage beginning to fall upon me.... Not a fan of that cross guard type thing, though. Not sure what's going on there.Will need to see a better picture of the wolf chainsword to see how much SW iconography needs removing/filling in, but it looks lovely.

SnorriSnorrison Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 mate, that's hot stuff! Me recycling bits for my Captain, and a week later, GW brings out these beauties! oh the irony. Ah well. Interesting they've brought out a chalice and wrote "and Chaplains" next to it...they should know nobody will ever have room for a Chaplain, and that chaplain can't have a grail of any sort? Love the decals. Lots of goodies on there. Snorri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 The Torso's are really nice, straight from Mephiston and Astorath style! No so sure about the death mask though :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evildrcheese Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 My only question is, where the smeg are the pictures of the BA sprue and transfer sheet? D Dammit, when I started my post there was no pics. Damn lag between writing and actually posting. Looking cool though. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snorri They said of the deathmask that it was perfect for sergeants and the recent BA tac box came with an auspex that no one in that unit can use... they're talking in purely aesthetic terms, we know that GW doesn't give a flying stuff about rules anymore. A chalice might make a nice accessory for a Chaplain if you can't think of anything else to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orogen Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Wow, not to totally troll... but $25 for the transfer sheet?? I know there are a lot on there, but that seems excessive. The ~$13 for the sprue seemed very reasonable - was blown away a transfer sheet would be nearly the cost of a squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother_Angelus Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 The transfers and accessories look great, but $42AUD for transfers and $22AUD for the sprue, what a joke. Seems i'll be getting the family to mail me another parcel from blighty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Closet Skeleton Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Pity the upgrade sprue doesn't have those feet with toes on them. Those are annoyingly rare, mostly its just OOP metal sergeants and special characters that have them, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jifel Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 As awesome as this is... Where are my second founding sprues? Flesh Tearers, Black Templars? Heck, just one FT shoulderpad on this and I'd buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spagunk Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I want the transfer sheet but not $25USD want. Plus, it is online order only so that's also a bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Yeah, that Chalise is exactly what I needed :D and those chest plates are just the best. My Chapter master is Gunna look fly between these and sanguinary guard pieces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bukimimaru Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 You know, I think between this Upgrade Sprue, the new Assault Marine kit and the Breacher-shield upgrade kit from Forgeworld, you could make a pretty Bitchin' Command Squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 It's a nice sprue for sure, although it would have been nicer to get a couple of weapons on it instead of all those heads, I have so many spare heads I don't know what to do with them! Transfer sheet is a bit pricey for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 So the BA sprue comes with a Crunk cup... awesome!!!One downer about the Blood Angels sprue is that it doesn't have a nifty weapon like the others do. I mean come on, that SW ones got two awesome looking frost weapons. What do we get... a knife.. :( well I hope its not a relic letter opener of some sort...

Evicerator Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 if you read the captions for the decal sheet - they're larger than physical page of the WD. So those scoffing at $25 price tag should reconsider. I remember back in the day the transfer sheets were small enough to fit in a blister/clam pack and you only got 3 sheets for $10-ish.
