I guess this is a multi-part question:

 

1. Will GW update and in the future release new slightly larger new model versions of the Chaos Rhino, Chaos Predator, and Chaos Vindicator? It vigor me thinking because those vehicles are core to a chaos space marine armory. 

 

So that led me to consider will they also do the same for the space marine range? Which would almost certainly mean primaris can now be transported in it.

 

Personally I REALLY hope they do! Why? Because I like them better than the Impulsor and gladiator line of tanks. There are no new vindicator replacements unless you want to count the laser destroyer on the gladiator lancer and repulser executioner? And with its reduced shots, I don't think it fills the Vindicator role.  I would love to see new versions of each of those classic vehicles also for space marines if they release new versions for CSM? 

 

Any thoughts on the likelihood? Because I just can't imagine them re-doing them with new models but only for CSM and not also for SM.  And yeah I wish my primaris marines in Tacticus could go in the Rhino and Razorback. 

 

 

My personal theory since Shadowspear has been GW will eventually redo Rhinos and Predators but only for Chaos. The base kit will be straight up Chaos vehicle matching the modern Chaos tech aesthetic. Upgrade sprues to make cult versions. Vindicator will be removed from service and replaced entirely by Defiler, with an updated Defiler model.

The Land Raider is in dire need of a new model IMO, as it barely fits together, has a tonne of moldlines and oh god the cognitohazard that is the interior... but I actually feel the Rhino chassis is fine as is. Not perfect for certain but they do everything they need to and considering the base Rhino kit is over 20 years old at this point it actually holds up really, really well. They could make it bigger but given a true-scale Rhino would be obnoxiously large I'd honestly rather they kept it the same size. I suppose if we were getting a refreshed Rhino/Razorback kit they could add some more weapons for the Razorback (assault cannons in the box, multi-melta and las-plas making their triumphant return) and more stowage/extras for the kit would be nice, things like extra armour, grab rails etc.
