sbarnby71 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Some quick size shots below, but didn't have any of my Claw Pack built to show sizes as they are slightly smaller than the 1st wave guy in the pic. The gold used is now more of a bronze which is really close to the colour I use (Runelord Brass with an Agrax Earthshade) so I'm happy about that. Both figures have great detail, Bjorn has lots of articulation, even down to the pistons controlling his feet, the pipe work is flexible, so moves nicely. My 2 minor niggles are there is no articulation in the feet claws, that would have been really nice (the normal Marines have it) and because of the runes on the wolf pelt on his left shoulder, you can't bring his left arm up to a level position. I don't have any plans to re-paint these, but I know I won't be able to resist some minor work (not a fan of the metallic paint on the claws and gem stones). Also final pic has the white metal Bjorn I painted a very long time ago. Kassill, Valerian and Jarl Kjaran Coldheart 2 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbarnby71 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 The view port is so big on Bjorn, I thought could I paint some eyes peering out, but I know I'm not that good at painting, so I improvised! dees, BadgersinHills and Prot 1 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wispy Posted October 22, 2022 Author Share Posted October 22, 2022 this 2023 teaser is crazy. For the Wolves part, Arjac, the Iron Priest, Greyhunters, and Wulfen are apparently in development. https://youtu.be/i8cjBgzSHtU?t=1174 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prot Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Wow these just look amazing. I liked the UM in the Bladeguard design, but the wolves blue grey is just stellar on these models. I’d love to get Ragnar but these are just so expensive in Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbarnby71 Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Do love these figures and I have spent waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much money on them so far. Anyone know if the First Born Marines are the same size as the Primaris? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know if the First Born Marines are the same size as the Primaris? I have the Thunderwolf cav and the answer is different if you're comparing Joytoy 1.0 or 2.0 models. 2.0's are noticeably bigger than 1.0s. The Thunderwolf riders are about the same size as the Joytoy 1.0 though the MKX armour makes the Primaris thicker looking. They're noticeably smaller than 2.0s when standing side-by-side though it's not noticeable at all when they're on the wolf. Joytoy 1.0 includes the first Intercessors and Claw pack models. 2.0 includes Ragnar and the Sigyrr Stoneshield model that came out a little while ago. Dunno how big this Iron Priest will be comparatively as it's a one off fig and you can't trust what the the product descripting because they say everything 11.7cm and that's not true.

Wispy Posted April 29, 2023 Author Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) The riders are kind of a crappy fig, honestly. Smaller, flimsy, hard to pose... but they look fine on their wolves so cant complain. Just don't expect to pose them as infantry. The 2.0 is a rock solid fig with ball bearing and the like keeping it together, very easy to pose. Really curious what the Iron Priest will be like because its a one-off.

Wispy Posted July 5, 2023 Author Share Posted July 5, 2023 (edited) I just got the Space Wolves Iron Priest fig and he is a quality toy, on par with Ragnar Blackmane (which is the only premium Joytoy fig I have to compare it too). Despite representing a 'first borne' miniature, the figure is the same scale and posability (and probably using the same frame) as JoyToy's standard Primaris figure. I was a bit worried, because the riders for the thunderwolf cavalry are firstborne and they are far inferior - awkward and flimsy compared to the standard primaris joytoy. edit - @sbarnby71 thought you might be interested to know Edited July 5, 2023 by Wispy Valerian 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
