Marshal Reinhard Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Doesn't ETB refer to snapfit kits? Ones that can be assembled without glue? That's what all the easy to build primaris kits are, snapfits. While technically they're also monopose, I prefer to use the term to refer to models like those in Dark Imperium and Shadowspear that did require glue but weren't really customizable by design. At least I don't know what else to call them, since ETB are supposedly a step down in complexity still? Monopose isn't an offical term at any rate. The starter box will have models that are monopose, we can clearly deduce this from the number of exact copies between the assault intercessors, but I don't if I'd call them ETB, since that seems to refer to its own thing.

This is how I see them described. ETB specifically means snap fit, no glue. Monopose are the option-less models that you still glue together.

Dark Shepherd Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 You are exactly right. Which is why I get uptight about people calling Shadowspear etc ETB implying theyre something theyre not and fuelling a load of complaining Irony is some of the ETB kits have moveable arms so arent monopose Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364082-9th-starter-box-speculation/page/5/#findComment-5538907 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to Build > Limited Pose (given some aren't strictly monopose) > Customisable Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364082-9th-starter-box-speculation/page/5/#findComment-5538937 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Continued discussion about what means what would be better suited in its own thread. Thank you.
