Halandaar Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 They're the same sculpts from the first time around, no? Just photographed with the bare heads and painted red instead of blue this time?

They are indeed the same models: You might have seen these models before in Ultramarine blue, but they’re now firmly on the side of Sanguinius.

Just photographed with the bare heads and painted red instead of blue this time? Yeah, it's a re-release in red, though not the full range of Series 1. Which is cool for anyone who didn't get them originally. I'm not quite sure why the article says they're Blood Angels. They're generic Marines with no sculpted Chapter details on them.

Redcomet Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Wait so only 6 sculpts this time around, and they are rehashed. But why? Had they been smart they would have made a mkII or mk III veteran squad of 10 sculpts. People would have gone mad for that.

tinpact Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Oh, that's neat that they're bringing these guys back - the sculpts are quite nice, but they're an absolute pain to get a hold of anymore.

lansalt Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 It's weird that they use a primaris intercessor for the box art, I guess it's true that most people can't see the difference between space marine types Anyway, I got them all before except the captain, let's hope they re-release more of these in the future.

phandaal Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Space Marine Heroes are nice sculpts. Got the Terminators mixed in with my other Deathwing, good looking models even with their cheapo plastic material. Now we just need those STLs released as a new Tactical Marines box.

No Foes Remain Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Was looking forward to trying to get some of the first run that I didn't get, but seeing now that this new run is all models I currently have.

Master Commander Ajax Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I guess this is good news in the sense that the Space Marine Heroes Series hasn’t been abandoned entirely at least. skylerboodie 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375252-space-marine-heroes-2022/#findComment-5851230 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Eye Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Shame they're rehashes, on the other hand nice that they can be acquired more easily. I've only gotten two SM Heroes kits, and they were Death Guard at that, but they were very nice little models. I'm not gonna start a full Space Marine army any time soon but should I do some kind of INQ28 project involving Marines, I may look this way...

They were "limited" enough that they can probably still sell them at that silly price to collectors/people wanting better looking tacticals/anyone that wasn't around at the time while also having to basically put no effort in it Plus they might have stock left, considering they were even using them as pieces for that board game that was sold only in Germany/USA/DownUnderland last time we saw them Keep also in mind they mention this is "set 1", so it's likely they'll put the other 6 on sale later.Only question remains what'll they do with the captain Edited July 29, 2022 by Fenriwolf Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375252-space-marine-heroes-2022/#findComment-5851250 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrox Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) Eyebrows. Why oh why do they not paint eyebrows on these marines?! It would stop the bald guys from looking like clones of Duncan Goodhew, and the guys with hair from looking like Arnie from the original Terminator film when he gets a bit singed! Anyway... glad to see Space Marine heroes is still going, even if its on repeat Edited July 29, 2022 by Cyrox spell fail Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375252-space-marine-heroes-2022/#findComment-5851251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) These guys look better scaled than the old tacs. How do they compare to the new Mk VI, if anyone knows? e: I really hope this means we get another run of the Death Guard minis at some point. We never got the sorcerer here, and I'd love a second set of the plaguemarines to kitbash.

Marshal Reinhard Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Do remember snagging that sergeant head. While these days we do have many bearded heads to go around, not so many screaming ones. The other heads in the series as far as I recall weren't particularily noteworthy Gederas 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375252-space-marine-heroes-2022/#findComment-5851259 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have them somewhere with the rest of my oldsmarine, but from what i can recall -without going to pick them out of the boxes- of discussions at time they are basically same scale once you remove the textured base from the equation, just with slightly better proportions in the sculpt (and the better poses also help) Edited July 29, 2022 by Fenriwolf Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375252-space-marine-heroes-2022/#findComment-5851260 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've already threatened to release a "Set 2" in the near future. I can't imagine it being anything more involved or they'd be calling it something a bit more inspiring.
