Valrak had already said that a bike captain was supposed to be coming. I sincerely hope the orks win next week and we see something interesting. The marine bikes are fine they just feel very dull.

The Praetorian of Inwit Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 It's good the kit is being improved. But it's still rather average.

ZeroWolf Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 I like them, but the question is do I like them enough to go with the 6 I already have? That will depend on the price (not expecting the same savings as I got three with indomitus then paid £8.99 for the other with Imperium magazine ) DemonGSides 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/388187-new-multi-part-outriders/page/3/#findComment-6177948 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo1701 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 They’ve either done an excellent job with filling the gaps when assembling these or the kit fixes one of the major issues with the push fit with the join down the middle.

FarFromSam Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 One of the few examples where the old models are better posed, and may even still look better. Worried about Ravenwing Black Knights, but they sure did leave plenty of room for improvement Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/388187-new-multi-part-outriders/page/3/#findComment-6177961 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antarius Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Hmm, I'm not a big fan. But then I wasn't a big fan of the initial outriders either. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/388187-new-multi-part-outriders/page/3/#findComment-6177962 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaurdian31 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 These are ok, hopefully there are some options that haven't been shown off. Would really like a power fist for one of the melee weapons.

SvenIronhand Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 These are ok. Nothing special in terms of options or aesthetics, but getting out of boxed push-fit hell is a good thing for any unit. The main point of interest for me is the differing Power Weapons.

Shinespider Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 In all honesty, I think the bikers were always my least loved out of the truly classic Space Marine kits. It always felt like every other race had a better spin on the "War Motorcycle" concept, whether it was the Orks with their tricked-out speed-freaks machines or the Eldar with flying bikes that are basically miniaturized fighter jets. The Space Marine version was always just the most boring possible take. These are better than those originals, I think, but they still don't feel like they're doing anything that justifies their existence.

My point is if aesthetically different models is fine, then where is the harm of them having slightly different loadouts. The SS Space Marine Unit Bloat sailed a long time ago.

Neil H Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Rather surprised that one of bikes front wheel still has a join line visible, unless of course it's a brand new spanking tyre straight out of the mould and it's not worn down the mould line......

MoriyaSchism Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 The melee weapons and the different styles of chest decoration are good. I like the different style of power sword and the classic power axe. They are still outriders and I still don't care for this bike design, but at least there's some variety in there. Shame the Indomitus style vambrace isn't optional.

Wispy Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 (edited) I like a nice multipart kit over pushfit, I like GW didn't try to give it top billing because technically it's just replacing a kit that already exists with marginal improvements. Happy to see some power weapons, conspiring how I can maybe turn them into Swiftclaws with the Blood Claws slimmed down armour...

Wispy Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Also I suspect now that they have multipart outriders, multipart Ravenwing is around the corner. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/388187-new-multi-part-outriders/page/3/#findComment-6177976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
