Azaiel Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Do they have popcorn in the 41st millennium? Only PopKhorne. *Ducks the tidal wave of eggs and rotten tomatoes* For me its Abaddon, that mini is a perfect re-imagining of the old figure and art. Heck it almost made me start a black legion army!

The razors are packed tight so judges won't find them, so you'll need to wiggle them out. Go get them champ, for chaos.

totgeboren Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 My personal favorite of the year is the Master of Possession, which I think they just nailed. The pose, amount of details and even sculpted flames all just mesh.Winner will probably be either Mephiston or Abaddon, both really great sculpts that also tickle the nostalgia feels by adhering close to old art.

Probably, but I expect it takes the form of tiny crunchy skulls.Hmmm My personal favorite of the year is the Master of Possession, which I think they just nailed. The pose, amount of details and even sculpted flames all just mesh. Winner will probably be either Mephiston or Abaddon, both really great sculpts that also tickle the nostalgia feels by adhering close to old art. Bringing this back on track. I feel as though some people will vote for their favorite chapter or character no matter what. BA and mephiston are widly popular and this will get a fair few votes simply because "BA". However I find Mephiston lacking something and I just can't out my finger on it. The Master of Possession was another great model though.

Son of Sacrifice Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 It's been a crazy crazy year... How to choose? Abaddon, Eliminators, Ambots, the traitor command set, the new chaos models... duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/360782-mini-of-the-year-2019/page/3/#findComment-5452985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Caerolion Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 This one was really hard, so many great contenders. I ended up voting for Abaddon, but the Keeper of Secrets is also practically perfect, Kataphros is very impressive and a welcome change from faction leaders just being combat powerhouses, and the Gobbapalooza are just amazing miniatures dripping with character. Even if they split it into 40k and AoS, it'd be a hard choice. Abaddon clinched it though for the attention to the underlying physique of the armour, instead of the usual "floating limbs" that plague the Terminator models.

DeadFingers Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Four years, four Chaos models. That's honestly kinda impressive, but also not that shocking, since they're all very good, popular, flashy models. Kinda sad they didn't do second and third place, I would've liked to see which models almost made it. Now GeeDubs, how about World Eaters or Emperor's Children this year? :D Scribe 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/360782-mini-of-the-year-2019/page/3/#findComment-5453994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irbis Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Abaddon clinched it though for the attention to the underlying physique of the armour, instead of the usual "floating limbs" that plague the Terminator models. Huh? He still has floating limbs (arms are too high and the shoulder joint only works when he does T-pose, he can't lower his arms at all) with shoulder pads that make no sense whatsoever unless they are welded to his torso because they are certainly not attached to his arms. Add to this the fact he still has pelvis twice the width of normal human if you look at how far apart his legs are (the designer even had to add random rag to try and mask this), he has nothing between his pelvis and rib cage, his head is so big in comparison to his body he has proportions of five year old kid, talon of Horus has a gun that only works if his arm is upside down, and you get one bad mini that only won because it looks flashy. Armless wasn't even best looking mini on chaos side (new daemons, Chaos Knights, and Slaves to Darkness SC are all far superior to him, IMO), but given he is big, expensive, and come out early in the year, there was no way he could lose, which is a shame, really Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/360782-mini-of-the-year-2019/page/3/#findComment-5453996 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I'm just pleased that among big flashy names such as Daemon Primarch Magnus, Daemon Primarch Mortarion and now Abaddon ... there's also the not so humble Noise Marine with Guitar blaster. :D DeadFingers, Evil Eye and Marshal Loss 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/360782-mini-of-the-year-2019/page/3/#findComment-5454002 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Loss Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 4 years, 4 glorious victories for Chaos. Now GW just need to release models this year worthy of continuing the trend.

Shinros Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Eh, he's a nice model but I don't think he is model of the year material, I think next year GW should make separate polls for both games.

Ishagu Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) I'm surprised that Celestine never won, she was a much better model than Magnus.Morty and Magnus are in no way the best models released in their respective years. But lots of people do love Chaos stuff...Abaddon is fantastic however, no doubt about that. Edited January 2, 2020 by Jarl Caldersson Please be respectful to your fellow hobbyist, even if they play a separate faction.
