[@tom-and-don]

Welcome back boys! This cartoon is super special to us as the first thing we ever made together and a Warhammer toon to boot! This is where the journey started lads 🙏 thanks for sharing it with us

[@renegadegodmalice6996]

You should make a video dedicated for the regular marines. We miss those blokes and their crazy adventures.

[@htcp6541]

Ok

[@Narsheo]

As the fight against the furries subsided?

[@alexandereden8911]

Wow, this was a throwback! I remember watching this and it leading to your own website, where I fell in love with Regular Marine. Are you gonna re release the second one as well?

[@sirmoustache629]

First time seeing it. Pretty fucking good for 16 year olds

[@doesntmatter5857]

Ah yes, from back in the day when an artist could use a bit of Iron Maiden in the background without giving it a second thought. I miss these times.

[@Kuolonen]

Simpler times.

I remember exactly where I was when I first watched this video, 12 years ago while working for a railway company here in Brazil. I remember watching all the videos and not being able to hold my laughter in the room, to the point of crying. At the time, watching videos like this was frowned upon, even on my lunch break, so it was quite embarrassing for me, yet a great memory and experience. Thanks for all these years of videos and parodies, you guys are awesome :)

[@warhawk4494]

I love "why don't yiu make like a banana,and fuck off." That's my favorite quote.

[@Delta_2209]

A Warhammer fan in Brazil? That's quite rare, good to know there are others

@@Delta_2209 brazilian here, also 40k fan, GW doesnt make much of an effort but TTW games did spread around warhammer to brazil a lil bit.

[@MEHOLE]

Lol Brazil, its easy to imagine you were eight years old while working for rail company.

[@OttoisOhio]

They have been preparing for space king since 14 years ago

[@DxSkeith]

I can't believe it's been 14 years now. This was the video that introduced me to you guys way back when, and by God you've gotten funnier and funnier! Hopefully one day you can make more 40k content if GW climbs out of their own arse.

[@FormerGovernmentHuman]

This comment aged like already rancid milk especially this week. But you already knew the chances of GW not being shit were low, except now they’ve just doubled down on being woke too.

[@DxSkeith]

@@FormerGovernmentHuman Hey, at least Glory to Space King

[@davidboites9473]

For being the first animation, it’s still leagues ahead of what I’ve seen from KZbin animators recently.

[@bisbee1678]

Heck, its been better than a lot of what we've seen from Games Workshop.

[@boarfaceswinejaw4516]

which animators?

[@mufat8400]

@@boarfaceswinejaw4516 hes probably referring to storytime animators

[@jamesreagan8175]

Which animators?

[@skypiratecaptain]

That’s because Newgrounds videos got popular from being good and shared organically, not an algorithm that’s gamed for views

[@WelcomeToDERPLAND]

I actually remember watching it when it first came out on newgrounds- and recently went back to watch all your classics there again- they really havent aged a day and are still fantastic.

[@Mankey619]

This cartoon really takes me back in my adolescent years. Looking at it now just really shows that how much you guys have evolved over the years. Great to see this classic nostalgic cartoon.

[@_spartan11796]

You boys having been really pushing out the content! It’s been fantastic just don’t burn yourselves out.

[@MagicHjalti]

This is old vid

[@YouAreStillNotablaze]

They do this for a living though.

[@RECEPTOR17]

I remember this making the rounds on the Bolter and Chainsword waaay back when and I fell in love with this channel. The line "I feel AMAZINGLY expendable." is still one of my favourites from any show or content.

[@reecedignan8365]

I still use the word scrub to refer to any cannon fodder like character I have in my games.

[@RavenousMaw]

I like the phrase "there goes my smile". Such an understatement

[@gunslinger1911a1]

I remember when this first came out with this on New Grounds all those years ago. I fell in love with your work and followed you guys to your website. I even painted Space Wolf minis up in the Ostrogoth's colors for Regular Marines. I hope you guys do a few more like the old days. The crusade never ends, unless we let it brothers.

[@brandonportugal7578]

Dude I remember this. It still holds up. I thought of this cartoon from time to time. The lines "I feel amazingly expendable" and "Call me Chad!" in the sequel have stuck with me over the years.

[@TheBeastlyBomber]

That don fellow looks like he needs more nutrients

[@ElJulioso]

He requires more minerals!

[@ComposedSage75]

For your first ever animation this still looks pretty good. Glad y’all are still goin.

[@TheIgnacciousd]

I would love to see more 40k themed stuff from you guys. It’s all so damn good including this throwback.

[@angelsofblood9879]

This was such a classic video, especially when it had "run to the hills." The humor and the design was and still is spot on.

[@spencerhorton1317]

Ahhhh memories, you guys have come such a long way. Keep making kick-ass stuff it's only gotten better from here

[@bardoftartarus]

I was hoping for a director's commentary of sorts but still cool to just see the video. You guys have both improved a ton.

[@douglasgarthwaite9306]

This... this is what made me follow FG once upon a time. The two Space Hulk videos were/are glorious. I'm so glad you put them up again so I don't have to watch them on some random other channel that reuploaded them.

[@Johannicus]

Zael is probably one of my fav animation characters. His stuttering and personality is just so entertaining.

[@notgoddhoward5972]

You know GW with a million budget couldn't top this in 2022.

[@alcatrazthatguyontheintern1465]

It's like seeing an old friend from many years ago. Ever so glad we are to see he never changed. I'm just happy to see this old gem again.

[@zoch9797]

I saw this when it first came out. I loved Drago too. You guys are what really helped me get into 40K. I always hoped you guys would return, and then you finally did. It has been the best gift ever!

[@LTCOMMANDER89]

I have to say, Tom and Don. I've been with you guys since your first showcasing on Newgrounds. Between Madness cartoons, final fantasy parody's, Pico Day and so forth and so on. You guys have always put a stupid smile on my face in the darkest of times. I love how much you've grown as artists, I love how you guys are with your community and how kick ass your RAID SHADOW LEGENDS ADS are. All I want to say is, from the bottom of my heart. Please make underwear with "Avenge me Brother" on it. Oh, and keep up the good work. Love you both you filthy animals.

[@mistrants2745]

Damn man i remember this. This is SO long ago and i never realized it was you guys. I absolutely loved the space hulk animations!

[@Mariini]

Man... Are we... "Old?" Can't be, this came out just a few years...ago... 🫣

[@DarkLordOfSweden]

@@Mariini don't let it set in

[@ham9236]

I remember this being one of the earlier 40k things I saw beyond the tabletop game, legit didn't know it was flashgitz xD Beautiful seeing this again, thank you, brothers

[@Marinesk-eh2hh]

What gets me everytime is “of course there’s fucking gene stealers”

[@Frankie0100010]

This was the first one i watched and what got me into 40k, after watching it I googled what a cat unit was and went down the rabbit hole. I have you guys to thank for that.

[@candygorilla2]

I remember this vaguely lol. I didn't know this was done by you guys

[@nukem8128]

Same

[@lildarkone]

this just feels so crude and i honestly love it, wish i weren't 2 years old when it came out lol

[@micaigneous_01]

Man this is a classic to me. Loved watching this one over and over. Amazing to see where you guys have come since then.

[@SYCHOp999]

God here I am working a full time professional job, with a house and a wife. But one video and I'm back at my local game store, crowded around someone's laptop, watching "this new 40k cartoon Justin found". Thanks for this guys

[@TheRemembrancer]

Truly a Legendary tale of the 41st Millennium Brothers Tom and Don.

[@LG-rg4ut]

The mission screen in the first episode is excellent- We need a spacehulk 2…

[@justright8547]

I remember I watched this back in 2011 when I was first getting into 40k, and then binged watched the trials of Draigo too. It was that animation that made me wanna play Grey knights as my first army.

[@Gherichto]

I was there... I was there when flashgitz released Space Hulk. Congrats on 16 amazing years

[@FinDan07]

I remember watching this ages ago on youtube, glad its back! Its surprisingly good for your first cartoon

[@internetman1213]

God I remember this thing form wayyyyyy back. I was 9 or 10 when this came out, brought back some memories of jokes with friends or playing the tabletop game and painting the space hulk minis with my older brother

[@jatsi96]

In my opinion, "Space Hulk - Whimsical Tales of the Royally Fucked" is the best and most accurate description of the game itself, ever. 🤣

[@alotosius]

This is actually the fist bit of Warhammer content I was ever exposed to. Since then its been a never ending free-fall into the 40K rabbit hole.

[@dMiraculousDevin]

You guys need to do a video on how you two met and work together with these masterpieces

[@wrathin99]

I remember when this dropped! Great memories, and I love seeing your guys progress through the years.

[@AzelRavenWood]

I am glad this is back up in some form from you guys instead of a KZbin rip. I have always loved your guys work, especially this early one! Also, the live action Firebird video slapped! Good on you and best of luck with everything going forward!

[@alasdair1037]

Ah from the good ol days… so glad to see the boys are still smashing it all these years later and that I’m still alive to witness it despite my crippling addiction to warp dust

[@markusvurrgh4549]

Marvellous. The TomDon combo has been formidable right from the start. Well done, lads.

[@steinnhjalmir]

I remember this. Fell in love first sight. Tom and Don you two are awesome

[@Barrelrollz]

I never saw this back then, but it's nostalgic simply because of the old flash style and bottom text. It's of that era but still totally uniquely you guys. Cool shit.

[@WynterLegend]

Dude, this has been one of my favorite toons since forever ago! Thanks for re-releasing it!

[@berserkerpride]

You guys are really putting out a lot of videos. Impressive. I remember this video from "there goes my smile." And all the voice acting here is just great.

[@nukem8128]

Newgrounds? That is a name I have not heard in a long time. Damn, good stuff.

[@clawofthefallen]

Dude, I remember seeing it back when it was released. It got me to laugh my ass off so hard that I downloaded the video and kept it on my phones ever since.

[@gourmand3]

The crazy thing is, I remember seeing this cartoon all those years ago on newgrounds when a friend of mine that introduced me to the tabletop game showed it to me and I never knew it was you guys and now here I am following you in both channels.

[@dylanhester4194]

Love you guys. Keep up the awesome work.

[@skittycat213]

Fuck this brings back some damn good memories! This was my introduction to not only Space Hulk, but also Iron Maiden! Thanks for the great trip down memory lane guys!

[@XYZdude00]

I discovered these a decade ago when I first started getting into 40k. Good times

[@Teh_Zig]

Oh man you guys this is great. I don't know how you've done this. I've been watching other channels re-upload this one forever since it disappeared forever ago. Truly my favorite piece of animation from you guys! The way you guys had brother Claudio's arms outstretched cutting along the walls just the way the figure was posed was brilliant! Love it! Thanks!

[@richardallen6067]

That was yours guys first animation!?! Its gorgeous! Well drawn. Well put together. Good skit. All around good execution. Nice work boys. Look forward to more 40k animation.

[@probablykevin22]

You guys have been on a role recently. Keep it up!

[@modakkagitplugga]

This is what got me into 40k

[@Wampanator757]

Zael's "F-F-F-F-" stuttering has unlocked a core memory. I remember watching this over and over 12 years ago. This video was the basis of my sense of humor for the next decade and I didn't even realize it until now.

[@Tgungen]

I am genuinely surprised and amazed how well most of these jokes hold off all these years, especially when considering 2000s Internet animations really didn't had the best of humors

[@Vulkanprimarch]

This takes me back. To when I was a young lad, who couldn't afford to buy a box set of space hulk. But thought it looked really cool!

[@ilmarinen79]

The quality is still off the charts! Amazingly funny, the sound work...the passion just shines through. You don't see this kind of creativity much these days.

[@SlaaneshiChaplain]

Iron Maiden’s Run To The Hills still auto plays in my mind during the montage.

[@ilikemusic5440]

That was wonderful. Thank you both for all the hours of laughter and furry slaughter you have brought to all our lives.

[@Hyperion-5744]

For a 14 year old animation it's still way better than what new animators make. Keep up the great content flashgitz.

[@chiefbeef5906]

Holy crap, what a blast! This whole animation gave me flashbacks to "Thing Thing" the "Awesome" series, and "Madness" from Newgrounds' early days.

[@NeroimusIndustries]

this is the video that introduced me to yall, and I'm always trying to find your earlier works to rewatch them haha

[@NostraFnDamus]

Watching this it's pretty clear where Astartes got their inspiration from. Not saying it's a straight rip off, but, well...

[@toofastnobrakes]

I’ve only been watching for 7 years, but your videos still hit a nostalgia button for me

[@tomemaster1744]

Now this is a blast from the past! I LOVE this video because I was furiously obsessed with Space Hulk and found you guys because of this. I would love to see this remade with your skills of today.

[@csg8757]

I remember getting shown this by. A mate in secondary school and laughing our assets off watching it in our lunch break and it still holds up! 10/10 guys keep up the great work.

[@alexbarton1281]

Classic. You guys have improved so much over the years. I’m glad I’ve been along for the ride.

[@PonchaYT]

This was one of my favourite animations back in the day and still is.

[@bobboberson2736]

Crazy how far you guys have come as creators, I remember watching this with some friends on New grounds and thinking it was well made compared to most flash animations of the time.

[@antigrav6004]

This got me into 40k much more than anything before. Thanks for doing it. I'd love to see a remake or continuation.

[@ChrisZAUR]

Gotta love those stock flash sounds, thank you guys for all the years of entertainment and hope there are many more to come, keep up the good work and I love you

[@thebigidea9659]

Watched this on new grounds years back.Didn't realize you guys were the same animators.you've definitely come far!

[@Jetcom10]

God I remember watching this when first getting into 40k in middle school 12 years ago now. Wow how time flies. Thanks for all the great laughs and memories

[@BruceWaynesaysLandBack]

Love the idea of more longform content like this one. The jokes hit just as hard, even without the usual painstaking animation. Awesome stuff!

[@michaeldimare3786]

Really wish I had watched the full video back when I was still in school. My friend and I watched only up until the boarding pod launched and then we flicked off to watch some Sonic shit. Now, after trudging though Warhammer novels and seeing the pants-shitting terror of a genestealer in 360, I know now how different things could’ve been. Thank you for making wonderful art for the better part of two decades. You’re an inspiring lot

[@thedazzlingape2006]
