Now they no longer outbling Dante (though the recast market for copies of Astoraths and Sanguinors packs will be booming) Only actual detail I'll miss is the old left shoulderpads which were nice. new squad size is a bit jarring, but if they come with a stat boost then the only people that actually suffer will be the ones with 20 to 30 SG models. Anyway, to get the standard out of the way: Old Good, New Bad, Games Workshop hates marine players, yada yada, seth was right, might as well burn our collections now. /s

Probably wanted him to stand out if he was surrounded by the Sanguinary Guard, but still really disappointing. And honestly, why are all their recent videos so flipping dark? I could understand if the are trying for a grim atmosphere, but it look more like they just cheated out and didn’t turn on enough lights to really show the models.

This corporate greed, hire random joes who care less about the product but can model in structured way and pay less. Creativity cost money so limit to predetermined amounts. What they will prove is that paying more unique units from cost of sculpting is now not an acceptable reason.

@@Believer1980 are you looking with your eyes or your biases? They look like stabilizers for the jump pack with a wing motif. It's more subtle. I like it more. I understand why others would like the original more, the wings give off a nice silhouette. They are nicely sculpted and well painted. Similar to Dante but more pronounced than his too subtle wing decal. It's clealry not done by a kid. You don't have to like it. But it isn't as bad as you are acting

Wings will fit with the reculpt MKIV jump pack like Astorath and The Sanguinor. Suspect due to Sprue size limitation/cost for a 3 model kit, they decided to move to regular jump pack

I believe those Sanguinary Guard spears would be referred to as a "glaive."
@Ryan30z2 ай бұрын
It's probably because when they originally came out the swords and axes were called glaive encarmines. Matt Ward, who wrote the codex obviously didn't know what a glaive was.
@Battouga2 ай бұрын
Doesn't seem like any of the glaive encarmine relic weapons survived since "glaives" only have one edge. The new ones are power swords and spears with double edges.

I've already said my peace a 100 times it feels like but here goes. The Sanginator guy, I hate the scrolls. just do. some will like it, it's fine I can live with it. I also don't like his head. ok, I'll swap it out. The guard. oh boy... 1: 5 man box down to 3 man and you know they are going to charge the same price if not more. feels scummy. No axes? couldn't be bothered? too busy? No wings? the wings are iconic... ffs. seriously? how did they think losing the wings was ok? so first you price gouge us and give us less models, then you are too busy to make axes... and then you take their wings away. on top of that the heads are meh, and less fancy. tactical rocks for the save as usual. the guns are smaller on the wrist. and no nipples. not sure why they hate nipples now. the chest is flat and bare. when you update a model it's supposed to feel like an upgrade, these are not an upgrade.

The HQ actually looks great. Just the right amount of detail and I like that at least he isn't doing the go-to "jumping off a tactical rock" pose. As for the sanguinor guard, kinda lackluster. They aren't terrible like that inquisitor model we recently got, but despite the lore kinda explaining why, them not having wings really just makes them look not that much different from jump assault marines. they could've used more variation and details.

I don’t know why they didn’t do what they did with the old Blood Angels Chaplain with a jump pack in terms of wing design for the Sang Guard because that model has wings built into the jump pack that are kind of swept back and it wouldn’t make them look too similar to the Sanguinor imo. In saying that you could do a kit bash with that jump pack but getting 3-6 depending on how many you want in your army would be a pain in the ass/expensive

The Sanguinary Guard... those models are sloppy AT BEST! Some of the bitz look fine, like some of the weapons and some of the hands, but the jump packs are 110% vanilla, the shoulder pads are thoroughly mediocre (the firstborn BA upgrade pack has some epic shoulder pads) and that's all the good things I can say about them. They look far too chubby, frankly they look like they were made by the same guy who made Coteaz. The death masks are fugly, far too large and look like they were made by ogryns for ogryns. WTH? The firstborn Sanguinary Guard had the archaic jump packs and the wings (albeit ridiculous, the way they were made) gave them personality. They should have kept the archaic jump packs and put on some armor for them in the shape of folded wings, or something - something visible, not the toothpicks they got. And to add insult to injury, you can get a pack of TEN stormcast eternals vindictors for probably the same price THREE of the new Sanguinary Guard will go for, slap on some appropriate bitz and get a better-looking squad for significantly cheaper. Or you can put in some work using the same vindictors and actually get something much, much better. A tally of the new BA models so far: 1. New Lemartes - frankly, my opinion is that he looks like he's taking a screaming dump; the firstborn model was far superior 2. New Astorath - Ok-ish to good. 3. New BA primaris upgrade sprue - the worst I've ever seen, with the goofiest-looking heads. I'd rather 3D print the shoulder pads. 4. New BA multi-option captain - absolutely awesome, I may get one just to have it, it's a beautiful model. 5. New BA Sanguinary Priest - another absolutely awesome model, I'm extremely happy I didn't get the regular Apothecary model. 6. New Sanguinor model - ok-ish. I'd rather get a better look at the mask, though. It looks funky in some of the pictures. 7. New BA Sanguinary Guard - the worst thing since square wheels. Frankly, I'm lucky I play Dark Angels. We got far better toys to play with, even though nowhere near as many.

i started with the eldar back in the days. and then dark eldar with the new release. so always T 3. And then i wanted a T 4 army and i started with the blood angels. i did all my marines with guard and death company. so yeah, that was VERY pricey. i painted them with clear red and matt varnish. but then i left the hobby. now. i think i come back and give it a try.
