Kain Mor Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I missed out on Sevarina last time so this is a nice surprise. MithrilForge and Glute 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfran Morkai Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Ooh. May pick up some of the Commissars. Interesting no Kell, which is a shame as he was the cooler part of the set in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may not be the majority be its far from uncommon, especially since they ironed out most of the finecast problems. Interesting that they included one of the 2nd ed Commissars but only one, and yeah, no Kell sucks.

Marshal Reinhard Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Huh. I was gonna ask myself how they'd square the Yarricks with him not having rules anymore... but then again Legends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magos Takatus Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I am quite surprised when I look at the two Yarricks side by side I think the older one looks quite a bit better sculpted. Sure, the pose is a bit more stiff and the claw is a dated design but the coat looks more detailed and his weapons appear more ornate. It's like the follow-up sculptor couldn't replicate some of the details and just left them off. I don't think either is a bad model, I've just surprised myself that I prefer the older Yarrick model and I don't think it's nostalgia based for once.

Slave to Darkness Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Good job on selling the OG Yarrick, I was about to get a knock off one, metal is much more tempting than radioactive resin. beefeb and Magos Takatus 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinespider Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I do like that you can see the age difference between the two Yarricks. I hope we get one last update where it's clear that he's 90% bionic, his mortal life stretched far beyond any reasonable boundary to serve the Imperium's desperate need for propaganda figures.

I always prefered the old look personally, and wish they had kept that claw design whey they updated him 6 hours ago, Lord Marshal said: Never thought I'd see the day somebody wants a model in Finecrap over metal.

Alby the Slayer Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 What happened to Severina Raine? I bought the book and the miniature when it was release, but we never get a sequel or even some rumors about it. I guess it didn't sell so good. Shame, I like the character, you can trace similitudes with Gaunt's story but it was interesting and new noneless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harleqvin Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 And here I was about to sell the old metal commissar with powerfist and sword… guess I’ll be waiting a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beefeb Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 If only they were in metal Id grab one of each...fincest/resin...not touching it with a barge pole, its rubbish, and ive got a dozen models in a box to prove it from Arjac to eldar!

Xenith Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Shame they didn't do the old sword and bolter walking one, he was a classic for me. Noserenda 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Knight Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I'm really surprised that Raine isn't a part of the regular line. She's a wonderful model, and it's nice to have the option of a female commissar. Some of the other models have aged pretty badly. I think the new model from GW that's coming with the 9th edition codex is the best generic commissar GW have produced.

His stance is awkwardly stilted and coupled with his closed greatcoat he comes off as having very weird proportions at a glance. The face also looks quite poor, but that might just be the 'Eavy Metal style rarely being flattering to faces.

Emperor Ming Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Where do you even start with that model The cap is laughably small The pose is awful and why is the chest plate ontop of the closed greatcoat Then the face as well. quasistellar and skylerboodie 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mana Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 where can I see the red sash? The trademark sign of commissar authority? And the hat, it's too small, how can the poor guardsmen identify the commissar from afar? GW does good making these available from time to time, old sculps are great.
