10 Tallest Space Marines in Warhammer 40K

So, we have done a video on the most powerful space marines and also quite a few months back, we `did a video on the tallest humans of the Imperium. So combining both, we will now showcase The Ten Tallest Space Marines to ever exist. Mind you, these are all firstborn marines and not primaris, meaning these are in a way, base level heights.

The red wake is 12' feet tall, his armor is part terminator, part dreadnought. He is said to the largest marine ever in the lore.

[@DukeDanseMacambre]

Shame his FW model is lacking and whimpy looking. Guy should look like a 12ft shredder…

[@Ghostpanzer]

GW as a gag should give us a one page of new lore including him crossing the rubicon making him primarius

[@Kinography]

“his armor is part terminator, part dreadnought” in-universe kitbash lmao

[@declangrey1185]

He’s not 12ft he’s a head taller than a first born terminator… that’s taken directly from his own book and It’s stated to be modified terminator armour there’s nothing mentioned about it being with dreadnaught armour other than the major kill video. There’s a number of marines that needed their terminator armour modified, even abbadon couldn’t fit in cataphractii armour that wasn’t heavily modified and he wasn’t even the largest marine pre heresy.

[@serronserron1320]

@@declangrey1185 Much like military Legends of old the stories become more exaggerated with each telling

[@thedudeabides5]

I thought Tyberos was the tallest astartes. Its been said that he can actually look at a primark in his eyes.

[@homo-nerdicus9099]

tyberos shoud be much bigger

[@stanislous137]

Maybe in Terminator armour.

[@jo_ken]

I mean you’ve also got sources that Guliman is surprised to meet Polux at eye to eye level. So the heights are a bit up in the air.

[@Biscione93]

He only so tall in some incels artworks, lorewise he is only head taller than his terminator companions

[@macewindu3492]

​@@stanislous137that's the thing. Tyberos physically can't wear regular Terminator Armor. His has to be modified with Dreadnought plate

[@boredbrewer1998]

Didn't Gulliman remark that Polux was almost as tall as him?

[@declangrey1185]

Yes Guilliman said he was the only Astartes he had met at the time that could look him in the eyes directly in a conversation

[@thedevourer.]

Literally stood eye to eye with him yes, all evidence shows he was the tallest space marine

[@TalosValcoranOfTheFirstClaw]

He was tall but that eye to eye was probably when Alexis was in full armor and Gman was not, still impressive, big mf indeed

[@Huntron-go1bw]

Volos of the Black dragons and a dragon claw was 3 meters tall and his armour was custom made like many on this list he also later became Capitan of the 2nd company. The dragon claws actually take up assault squad spots in most companies even going past codex standards by having as many as 3 or 4 active squads instead of just 2. Then there are Dragon claws that have been "blessed" so much they have become more like the Wulfen and are far too unpredictable and dangerous that they have to be put into medically induced comas and kept inside specialised drop pods for their brothers safety. They are only deployed in the most dire of circumstances and these are the ones which are more like the death company.

[@kizaruthegreat]

wondering if tyberos will keep growing since sharks also keep growing till they die

[@Jumbuck1151]

I love how Rambo is the universal standard to which everyone else is compared to in 40k

[@Tank1711]

It's nice to see Haegar The Mountain getting some recognition. One part to showcase his sheer girth was he had to force himself through a bulkhead on board a ship to get into the teleporter which ended up causing said bulkhead to screech and creek as he forced himself through it, something a terminator wouldn't have any problems fitting through. He also carried TWO thunder Hammers attached to his back.

[@zerotwoeto3123]

Please Do a video of which actor you think should play each primarch!!

[@BRwelk]

Up

[@HarryScTam]

Alexander Skarsgard as Sanguinias would be an option

[@mikewilson824]

I agree we need a video like this

[@lokiopensloloc5680]

I still don't know how one can plausibly expect a 6ft man to appear as not just a 7.5ft man but one with proportions similar to that of a chimpanzee. I would expect heavy cgi and frankly if modern cinema is anything to go by the masses are bored of it, preferring costumes over greenscreening.

[@Lionheart40529]

Yeah... Tyberos is the largest recorded space Marine in lore.

[@Mahbu]

I feel like Asterion Moloc should be on this list as well. Also, I was under the impression Tyberos The Red Wake was 12'.

[@swordbrotherulbrecht3286]

Same on both points

[@blacksabbath5300]

I agree on tyberos, this guy gets many heights incorrect including on some titans in one video.

[@declangrey1185]

Nope he’s a head taller than a first born terminator that’s a stat directly from his own book tall yes but definitely not 12ft

[@Mahbu]

@@declangrey1185 I am told Space Sharks/The Carcharodon chapter are on average larger than other First Born Space Marines. On top of that, Terminator armor is noticeably larger than pre-Mark 10 models. So statistically larger terminators would make Tyberos pretty large. Especially in terminator armor himself. Maybe not 12 feet but I suspect more than we give credit here.

[@TheAngelosShow]

Yeah Tyberos is known to be the single largest space marine. And Asterion Moloch could be in this list yes, but then we're not sure he's an astartes are we 👀

[@JD86Vintage]

The Alpha Legion are all supposed to be the size of the custodes at a minimum. Alpharius kills a custodes then wears his armour when he sneaks onto the Emperor's landing pad and fights Valdor... and all of the Legion are supposed to be close enough in size to him to wear the serpent's scales convincingly. Ditto they can pass for Omegon in his oversized terminator armour. Now this list could just be loyalist. But then, really the Alpha Legion still is loyal, technically, I think... At least that's how I see it, but I am Alpharius and this is a lie. For the Emperor.

[@beastuppercut27]

Glad to see Seydon on this list. He usually gets overlooked.

The larger you are the higher the chance your going to get your gigantic head blown off. Being tall in modern combat is actually a disadvantage. I cant see it being much different 40k years into the future.

9:14 this guy is spider marine

Lmao, where do you get your facts from??? Polux stood eye to eye with Guilliman thats taller than any evidence on tyberos 😂 who officially "stands a head taller than his terminator squad"

[@Bottna]

Any of these purchable for the table top?

[@xTheZapper]

3.6m is tall enough to look into a first floor window, which is rediculous. I'm sure most of these are just the shitty GW writers getting all pissy with eachother in a kind of "No! My Space Marine is the biggest!" contest, but not stopping to actually check how big the size they're saying is.
