Other people are too lazy, so I have to make a new thread yet again - edition
>waiting for chink holidays to be over and new announcementswhich is probably why people are waiting with making a new thread, but we could post our boys in the meantime!
Apparently, even chinese community was pissed about low shoulders on new Deathwing termies, that they pretty much crashed the stream, and show host had to do damage control live and at the end said something along "I have to take vacation after this". It was really hostile. Pre-stream there also was a prototype leak with correct pauldrons placement, which stoked fires even more, and JT passive-aggressively addressed shoulders post-stream with them demonstrating how far pauldrons/shoulders joints can go (in extreme cases)So JT currently has a choice of eating shit by releasing DW termies as is, or eat shit and quickly remodel figures that were basically ready to go, if not already in production lines. They apparently promised to correct them, if not for current DW termie release, definitely for the future ones. Chinese fans also started going after other figures, like upcoming SoH Praetor Terminator.Fun times.
>>11583631Based chinks. Though they should've done this way back when IW terminators were announced.
Any speculation on who will be the next primarch to release?
>>11584665I speculate the next one is going to be Curze, based solely on my wishes
>>11584665Probably someone stinky like Mortarion (forma de demonio)
Been a couple of years since my last purchase, but I'm seeing them do a lot of reissues lately. Did they at least update the hands with all these rereleases? I remember them being quite small and not being able to hold weapons well. That was literally my only complaint of the line, everything else was perfect.
Got the UM Dreadnought in for £60(!). He's fucking awesome. I never would have thought a toy of this design could be so fun- that's not me dissing the Castraferrum, but it is not the easiest to articulate.
>>11587109Seriously, for a vending machine on legs this thing can be pretty dynamic.
>>11587110Here he is as the centrepiece of my Imperial shelf. Not sure if I'll get any more Ultramarines- maybe one of the older, smaller Terminators, but I think I'm OK for Imperial figures for the most part.
>>11587109I've got the Grey Knight version, and I was shocked as well. You can do a very reasonable superhero landing pose, and its well balanced enough that you can pose him on one leg about to punt chaos fucking shits
>>11587109>>11587110>>11587111The right arm is also poseable.
>>11587368Oh neat! I generally wouldn't use that joint anyway (my 'tism dictates that the elevation and depression on the tabletop model is the only "canonical" articulation on an actual Castraferrum's main gun) but still, nice they included it!
Do you guys think we'll get some Blood Ravens around the time DoW4 releases?
>>11587450One hundo percento, but like a year after the release.
What’s a good first figure to buy?
>>11583631Based, what even was the fucking reasoning for the lowered shoulders? Fucking retarded chinks
>>11588415Likely some chink had a bright idea after seeing 3D model and fucked up shoulder joint placement and where they are positioned relative to the neck/head.>wtf these stupid westerns doing, imma fix their bad anatomyLittle did he know.
>>11583631>yfw they probably delayed any new reveals this week because of this
>>11588338Legion praetors of your favorite legion are a good buy
>>11590418Which are Gen 4.0? Apparently that’s the scale standard going forward.
>>11590429The legion praetors are already pretty big in their own right so you shouldn't be worrying about the scale unless you're army building the regular space marines.
>>11590458Thanks. Is there a list of which figures are which gen?
>>11590478Nope. If I'm not wrong, and gen 4.0 bodies are the SM2 scale, then the first ones of that gen very obviously the very first wave of Titus and Co (non-CE ver)Joytoy still maintains that SM2 collab is a completely separate line with its own unique scale and such, so it's kinda murky territory. But gen 4.0 body advancements still ended up seeping on regular lines, like articulated shoulderpad joints (it was soft loop before) and increased scale (manly legs).Khorne Berserkers still using old shoulder loop, but their bodies scale up well with Titus, they are huge. Chaos Chosen were the first(?) outside the collab to use new shoulderpad joints, and their bodies also are pretty much gen 4.0 scale. After them, every release uses these gen 4.0 shoulderpad joints. But some of the newest figures, like Iron Warriors Mk3 and new Blood Angels Primaris (Captain, Sanguinary Priest, Sanguinary Guard) dudes shrunk back to v3.0 body size.It's a fucking mess.https://www.adeptuscollectorius.com/Look there, play with filters, release date etc. Figures are sorted by their release order by default.
Second knight finally out
I know I'm a bit late to the party, but he's finally in!And I have to say he's fucking hueg and amazing
And yes he's hard to pose, but not nearly as nightmarish as I've heard around the internet. Managed to have him balanced under his own weight quite a bit before I even used the stand.Think the trick is going to be not moving his legs and wings too much to keep 'em stiff in order to keep decent poseability without support
>>11590715peak, post more
>>11590951I don't have much more yet
>>11590992damn cool pic
>>11590714Nice living room. I want to laze on your furniture.
>>11591036Thanks, I’m pretty happy with my small but cute living room and laze there all the time
>>11591104is this ai or photoshop now become so easy
>>11591138This is AI
>>11590714this is not an american house. I say you're from the netherlands
>>11591200Either you’re great at dissecting living room heritage or great at fishing in metadata or somethingEither way, you’re correct
>>11591234NTA, but view outside the window is 100% European vista. Especially brick houses with pinkish hue and shrubbery. And the interior also screams Europe, especially white paint everywhere. Something about streamlined forms, decor etc. You guys sure love Scandinavian design movement.
>>11591922No I fully understand it doesn’t look american; just the fact he got it so spot on was surprisingAnyway, more angry ron
Painted Abaddon's cables. It ain't much, but really makes them pop.
>>11592076
>>11592076>>11592077Looks great, I also love the custom helmet.
>for the empress
>>11595126Didn't know we had primaris Slaneesh marines already
>>11595126>doing this when Harlequins existOnce again it's obvious these kinds of people don't actually care for the hobby. Aeldari as a whole are the perfect pick for these troglodytes. A dying race of virtue signalling morons with hedonistic origins.
>>11595249...sexy Aeldari bitches when Joy Toy?
>>11595252No joke, I have a female friend who'd go all in on Harlequins if they could. As it is, they're very slowly collecting World Eaters and hoping Angron goes on a substantial sale so they can get him with minimal guilt for buying him rather than something for her kids. >>11595252I'd love any kind of Eldar, but personally I'd be happy with anything other than Marines at this point
>>11595461Why are you posting this disgusting shit here?
>>11595466Gay space marines matter too you know.
>>11595466I think some of us suffer from "muh-reenz" fatigue and have grown bitter and bored of JoyToy. Not that I condone that Anon's behavior.
>>11595492I did take that fag flag one right from their socials.>>11595126>war hammer is for everyoneJfc
>>11595466Haven't you heard? They are the new Noise marines line they descend from the 41st Company of the Emperoro's Children Legion
which marine got the best articulation?
>>11595252JT must realise how popular sexy female figures are. It's like they hate money.
>>11600558wh40k is deadtoys are deadfemales are ugly nowit's like you want them to burn money
>>11596417The new version Ultramarine/Blood Angel terminators might be in contention. Very smooth movement, the shoulder pads don't get in the way in a variety of poses, and because they don't have tassles and loincloths you can move the legs and arms around a little more without it looking odd or having the dangly bits get in the way. A good, solid, stable weight too. All the Horus Heresy lightning claw termies also have articulated fingers, but be careful of Abbadon because I find his arm tubes keep popping out in some movements.
Another week and nothing new?
>>11603801You spoke too soon.Eyes appear to be posable.
>>11603894>21.2cmWhy is he so short compared to Angron
>>11603947We are scaling it back so we can scale back up again later.
>>11603947Is he supposed to be the same size as angron?
>>11603991Well yeah in the mini its not super easy to tell since angron is so hunched over and morty is floating, but my guess would be they’d be comparable in sizeBut he’s much cheaper than angry ron (like half of the price) so i might actually consider getting him.
>>11604085I thought Angron would be the exception since he's huge compared to the other Primarch figures. Maybe JT doesn't want to put a high price tag on another primarch?
>>11603894plague marines? Garro? Typus? Deathshrouds? Nurglings?
>>11604174They always annoince the Primarch by himself, the other units are either announced before or after him ( like in this case)
>>11604167Well the other primarchs released so far weren’t ascended to daemonhood. Angron was huge as a mini, so is mortarion. (Lore is a bit more wishy washy on size afaik)But i hope your right abt the pricetag thing. I have angron, and i love him, but I find him a bit too big to put on display in a sensible manner. not willing to fork over that kind of cash again. but a slightly smaller (and frankly cheaper) mortarion and magnus would be an option for me, where two more giants absolutely wouldn’t
So happy I'm not into the Primarchs and just collect regular marines, sure helps to save some buck and shelf space.>inhales copium
>>11604512depending on how many marines you got you might be better off with the primarchs.
>>11604512I haven't picked up any but some of them look pretty good.
>>11604512I only own unnamed characters, but fuck that Mortarion is whispering (wheezing and coughing) my name
Maybe the next primarch will be snake fulgrim
>>11605318MAYBE the next primarchs are those of the 2nd and 11th legionjust MAYBE you know
>>11590657Mine arrived yesterday. I knew it would be big but HOLY FUCK is it big. Pardon the lack of staging but it's going to take some time to clear a proper spot for him. I wasn't paying attention to when he'd ship. Every time I walk by I have another "goddamn" moment.
>>11604512how tiny is your apartment? Do you live in Hong Kong or something?Joytoy's Primarchs aren't even the size of Marvel Legend BAFs. They're like 7" tall, the size of McFarlane or Diamond Select figures. How do you not have the space for that?
>>11606556Mine's on its way, no idea where to put it just yet, I could barely fit Angron in and that mf is even bigger.
>>11606556Can this big guy defeat a daemon primarch?
>>11608872no, it's just knight and not even a titan and I think all the Deamon primarchs fucked up some titans in lore.
>>11608872On the tabletop? Absolutely, but it depends who gets in first. If a daemon primarch charges your knight before it gets to shoot, the primarch is gonna win. If you have time to approach while shooting, and you have the right melee (I'd recommend the thunder strike gauntlet, but I haven't fielded my support knight more than once this edition) you can pull it off sometimes. You're better off if you screen them out to get more shooting in, though.
>>11608872perturabo tanked 2 rounds of a warhound's plasma destructor in lore (and barely survived and needed rescuing)this punny knight aint shit
>>11608872Not a chance against this roided up niBBa
Absolutely crazy looking Death Guard termies
>>11609587Termies themselves look cool, but the smoke looks like shit
>>11609755Smoke? I thought that's supposed to be mold.
>>11609587Why did these guys choose nurgle again? disgusting
>>11609587
>>11603894>>11609587Why did joytoy switch to post-heresy look? Are they even going to make pre-heresy/crusade era death guard? What about world eaters?
>>11609837They're alternating, some of the primarchs they have released are from HH.
>>11609587Little sad that they don't seem to have gesturing hand options, but they're fucking gorgeous
>>11609587guys is it just me or do they look kinda cartoony?
>>11609587>We got these rotting, disease ridden, bloated degenerates as figures before the beautifully exotic Aeldari and Drukhari>Eldar and Dark Eldar fans continue to suffer
>>11609587They could've been more disgusting Exposed rotting flesh, puss leaking out etc
>>11609985just go ahead and buy early 2000s mcfarlane horror figures if you desire all that stuff so much
