The pose is alright, but I don\'t like the model, or that it\'s a space marine. Why not a daemon or flagellant??

 

[Roger Bunting]

It\'s okay, nothing particularly special there.

 

[Undave]

Yay another skipping marine, just what we need......

 

[darthfoley]

I don\'t mind it being a SM, but...that pose is just meh.

 

[Roger Bunting]

Well, at least he seems to be running properly, unlike those CSM Khorne Berzerkers.

 

[diddy lemon1]

i think he looks quite nice compared to alot of other sm figures

 

[matty1001]

Duno, face looks rather good. But i\'d have to see more angles and better pics to make up my mind properly.

Though that weapon is a bit shit.

Because Space Marines make up about 70% of GW\'s total sales. The kids just love those power armoured superhumans.

This doesn\'t do a lot for me to be honest.

Actually I was just thinking that.

It\'s a shame because I really would love to see a fantastic sculpt along the lines of Enigma or Andrea\'s Warlord Series.

 

[Sjakkie]

Look mom: no right hand! Guess it\'s still W.I.P. Maybe there are other parts or details also yet to be added.

 

[Ebonbuddha]

I want one.

 

[Dragon Forge Design]

Yet again looks like another trainie project made into the GD LE figure.

<sigh>

 

[Ebonbuddha]

I see what you mean. But it has that look. You know? Captain Sicarius is another example. The god Captain has an awkward pose. It looks like he is doing the MC. Hammer dance. But he also has something that makes you want to own him.

Sandra Garrity’s Daemonslayer in 2006 is the best in my opinion. The Archaon in 2005 wasn’t bad either.

Sandra garrity? I think it was Ali Morrison who did the Demonslayer.. Sandy Garrity has never worked for Games Workshop.

meh
not bad i want to see the finished model
never figured out the models with just close combat weapons.
umm never bring a knife to a gun fight.
hello
i can just see that scene in monty python where sir lancealot is running
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeCishrZ4lE
yeah thats what he reminds me of

 

[rosac]

maybe i will buy it, maybe not. If he is a cheap (i.e less then the £10 set) I would buy him as an inquisitor or templar.

just my 2 cents (well, pennies, im from England after all)

[Avelorn]

hm... Doesn\'t seem entirely finished. Is he missing his right hand? The face looks real good though... but what kind of putty? Looks like Super sculpy.

Not sure.. might be cool easier to tell with more angles. I\'d probably repose the legs though.

 

[hubbabubba]

Yeah, I like the face, hope they\'re not going back to all the space marines having bad Dolph Lungrum (Spelling) flat tops, takes me ages to file them off. Bring em on bald like the day they were born.
I think the skipping looks ok, as has been said it\'s a shit load better than the khorn beserkers, but yeah, yet another Space marine.....

The right hand will be a \"direct only\" option. lol
They could put an empty base in a bag as the Games Day figure and people would still try and sell it on eBay.

By the way where exactly did you get this information because I cant find it anywhere and I have to ask why does he have a painted head for a green??

Are you sure on your intell or are you just guessing..
