Meh. Its the first army many people get whwn starting the hobby, and no other faction is even remotely close to space marine popularity, and ultramarines are the most popular space marines by a good bit. It makes financial sense, and it releases models lots of folks want. 

 

Well, I guess that answers my question about them being popular other places because Ultras aren't that popular here.  I'd guess 5th or 6th among SMs in this area.

 

Just trying to be fair here, Ultramarines haven't gotten that much chapter specific stuff for a popular faction in several editions.  DAs and SWs have gotten more this edition than Ultras have gotten in several unless I've totally forgotten multiple releases.

I see they’ve posted it a few times on their social media (definitely IG story, not sure where else). 
 

I thought it was a one and done “haha, let’s laugh at ourselves” stunt but it looks like it’s leading up to something else. Tomorrow’s Calendar is most likely Titus’ new rules, but I wonder if we get anything else.

Call me crazy but that generation were my favourite incarnation of both bloodletters and flesh hounds.

Yeah, I'm conflicted about this. I always thought these sculpts were an aberration and the plastic ones were a return to their roots, but I don't think the plastic ones have aged that well.

 

Speaking about Pestigors, I'd have to convert the new ones if I ever wanted a Nurgle Blood Bowl team. The Blood Bowl Pestigors looks like chewed bubblegum from the product shots I've seen.

 

The protest continues...

 

I honestly don't know what this is leading to. It would be a bit odd if it is just for the already announced Titus HQ, but then I would have thought any ultramarine units would have been announced at the same time as the victrix etc.

That Word Bearers shirt  in that video was a thing of beauty. I don't even like Word Bearers, but that made it even funnier. I think the only way you could top that is a few people in Alpha Legion attire trying to blend in.

They are really cooking. 
 

The Word Bearers t-shirt “we are all ultramarines” and “any marine painted blue is an ultramarine”

 

Peak humor

I bet the Crimson Fists are spitting feathers at that statement! :teehee:

Maybe the "any marine painted blue is an ultramarine" is a hint to the rumoured BA box? 

I wish they'd do more pr work like this, maybe make a few skits for preview shows. Imagine if blood bowl season 3 had been heralded by a faux sky sports news report with people dressed like the two blood bowl commentators for example.

i think it'll be HH related, there was talk of new HH Guilliman sculpt, all the talk of calth and word bearers puts me in mind of that.

 

The reporter is called Mark, of Calth news. I'd bet it's a new sculpt for Lorgar and Guilliman as both are very old minis at this point, whatever it is I'm ready for the deluge of rage tomorrow.

Didn't Valrak immediately go back on the Guilliman 2.0 rumour saying it was just someone fibbing?

That was talk of a 40k version 2.0 of Bobby G if I recall. I think he said wires might have crosses regarding new plastic primarchs for HH (which could be bad news for my wallet)
