Dariokan Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I must say I didn't see that coming: More info herehttps://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/11/24/breaking-news-from-the-vigilus-open-daygw-homepage-post-1fw-homepage-post-1/?fbclid=IwAR3khxI1PhDp2o89KVhRoA73Z04h1v2g65YISjr1FIRnPMo1VcKF_ekCyxYOn one hand, the mini is gorgeous, on the other, my disgust for the primarises is very real... what do you think? Tears of rage or joy? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351409-primaris-calgar-your-thoughts/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopper21 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I'm super stoked if I'm honest. I am really in support of the range getting the primaris treatment. This also now mean calgar can get in my repulsor. I really the primaris guard he has too. So yea I'm really chuffed Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351409-primaris-calgar-your-thoughts/#findComment-5197732 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I said that the agressors seemed like mini-calgars (twin powerfist with bolters attached, in a top heavy armor design). However I didn't expect it the other way. There will be a wave of hate, which is understandable. However I hope this means more weapons for the Primaris.

Spiky Norman Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 It looks like a great model - What's not to like? I probably won't buy it, but I can still appreciate it and I am sure there are many people out there that would want to get it.

Toxichobbit Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I like the detail and quality, but I'm not keen on the pose. It seems a bit too Gary Morley era Blood Bowl. Looks bloody awesome to me! Is this the big reveal? Cos I thought the video said the 25th of November?Those GSC look amazing too. Can’t wait for all these Nope, video said the 24th. This is the big reveal. To be fair, there's a lot including a Warlord sized Titan.

Tamiel Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Interesting that they didn't give him Gravis armour. The previous Calgar was wearing terminator armor.

Warhead01 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I really like the new Marneus Calgar model. This is coming from some one who has a general distaste for all special characters. I like his honor guard as well. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351409-primaris-calgar-your-thoughts/#findComment-5198000 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishagu Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 The new Calgar is amazing, as are his Honor Guard. Can't wait to see the rules. I hope the Honor Guard can be taken seperately and have some spicy rules. They should accompany Guilliman too!

Guest MistaGav Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I think the hate mainly stems from the dislike for primaris as a whole and now the confirmation that older marines can be upgraded signalling the (long and eventual) death of older marines.I'm not an ultramarines player myself but man I really like him and will most definitely pick the model up. He looks like a real big boi that's for sure!

Ishagu Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Yeah I think they will be judging by base sizes. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351409-primaris-calgar-your-thoughts/#findComment-5198085 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead01 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Yeah I think they will be judging by base sizes. I hope it's a unit that lets you get several in 1 slot to avoid the rule of 3. Not sure how I would better phrase that idea but a unit of up to X that acts as characters or something, not just a single unit model. Or maybe it's just a strong unit. Like a Nobz mob. Lots of possibilities. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351409-primaris-calgar-your-thoughts/#findComment-5198108 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seahawk Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I'm betting his rules with the two Honour Guard will be similar to Saint Celestine and the Gemini (hoping hoping!). His model is totally boss. One hand is shooting (check all the sexy brass pouring out his bolter), the other hand is raised and inspiring. He's wearing Gravis armor, he's aged since his previous iteration, and he's still sporting some shiny bling. The classic lines are still there (fists with laurels, eagle backpack) and they added some sweet flames to the fists too. Overall, super ace release. I'm going to be adding some Armorcast muzzle flashes to the shooting bolter, otherwise it just looks silly. Also, found this: I have a mighty need! Despite it probably being a $60+ box.

Boldthreat Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I love the models. I love that the Primaris are getting a special character finally.... But No no no no no no no no no This is not the way to do it. I don't want to read about old marines being super juiced and made Primaris! When do these guys just retire and or die!?!?!? This is not the way, this is NOT the WAY GW! Rant over lol.

Seahawk Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Mostly because there's still plenty of room to make other faction-specific characters for new players to enjoy. GW has recognized they need their old players too, so have been heavily catering toward them lately to keep them in the game. One way to do that is to realize those old tiny models in new awesome ways, such as this.

derLumpi Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Not a fan of the entire Primaris stuff but I made my peace with them. Calgar getting the Primaris treatment, well not overly fond but I guess that will be the future. The pose is ok'ish. But I like those two honour guards!

Cyrox Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I like it. I don’t mind the maguffin they’ve come up with, a device they can step in to make them Primaris. According to what’s been said at WHW today, the transformation nearly killed him, so I bet this will only be for certain characters I’m one of those older players, and I definitely want to see the likes of Azrael, Dante, Ragnar, helbrect etc step into the Rubicon and get transformed.
