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.

Trysanna Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I missed out on these the first time around, so it's nice to see them make a return. The Sergeant is particularly nice, I really like his pose. Can't wait for set 2, would love some of those Terminators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DonCorleone- Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 The Captain from series 1, the Malignant Plaguecaster from series 3, and Terminator Ancient from series 2 get to ridiculous prices on the second hand market. Hopefully they get added soon. Also, is the Blood Angel on the box art new? Could it be hint of the rumour of 10th ed starter set being painted as Blood Angels for promotion materials?

Mostwanted Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 4 hours ago, Fenriwolf said: 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 This won't be done because of having stock left over as the sprue colour is different. I hope the Captain does come back as well as that's the only one I'm missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangoalphatwo Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I grabbed the Death Guard first time round. It would be cool if they did black legion, 1k sons, or even World Eaters… but I won’t get my hopes up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KurtanionNZ Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I'm excited for this! Finally an opportunity to try pick up Brother Toriad (the heavy bolter) at a not outrageous price for my Kill Team. I feel like his heavy bolter is just the most aesthetically pleasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Idaho Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Anyone with the original models first time round, could you confirm the size of these models? I'm interested to know if they're bigger than standard Tactical Marines, the same size as the new MK6 Marines, or something different. I'm super excited for any sets with Terminators. If they're the same price, £40 for 8 Terminagor models ain't bad when you can sell off the 2 duplicates, though whether they'd maintain the same deal is up in the air of course. I dunno, likely not if they're Terminators? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusted Boltgun Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Any ideas what 'other outlets' in the UK will stock these from today?

No Foes Remain Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 UK wise, I know Dark Sphere stocked them last time (termies too) so it's fairly reasonable that most 3rd party stores would stock them. Rusted Boltgun 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the full sets are released again, should be easy to build a few squads of upscaled Tactical Marines without too much overlap in the poses. With a little bit of cutting and maybe some extra bits they can all look a bit different. Blindhamster 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindhamster Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Robbie, is it me or does everything just seem larger for them? The shoulder pads and backpack even seen larger in that image. Could be a trick or the colours perhaps? I always liked that they made a more dynamic tactical squad for heroes, would make a good kill team tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phandaal Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 The heads are basically the same size. That is one of the important factors in making the scale look right. You can actually stick a Mk 7 head on a Mk X body and it will work perfectly. The OG scaling is just that different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can actually stick a Mk 7 head on a Mk X body and it will work perfectly. The OG scaling is just that different. Yeah I know that the heads are, I was more interested in the rest. Like, if you look at deathwatch marines, their heads are actually smaller (both helmet and bare head), but shoulder pads are identical in size, arms are slightly longer, legs are slightly longer, torso is about the same. mkX have the same size heads (more or less, they’re actually a bit narrower) and slightly larger shoulder pads - not so much you can’t use any firstborn ones though. just interested with these as to what is actually larger. Kind of looks like it’s the same CAD as a tactical marine, but more upright and everything has been scaled up a fraction, if that makes sense?
