SPACE MARINES ARE GETTING LARGER! - Ultimate Space Marine Size Comparison (WH40K)

[@naldi3923]

I like the larger minis. Space marines are supposed to be giant, even out of their armor. However they are the size of guardsmen. The new death watch and space marine hero marines are slightly bigger and work well. Primaris look great but lack the diversity of all prior marine kits (mixing/matching tersos, legs, etc). Moving in the right direction though!

[@the40kboyz11]

I don’t think you’re right about the space marines being the same size as guardsmen, I have space marines and guardsmen and space marines TOWER over the guardsmen

[@plaguemarine1111]

@@the40kboyz11 do you have newer space marine models or older models? Older space marine models are tiny compared to new ones

[@ImperialDiecast]

yes but if youre gonna make the space marines bigger you gotta make all their vehicles bigger and if you gonna make the SM bigger you gotta make the CSM bigger as well see where i am going with this?

They're getting better compared to the other minis. It's silly, that on tabletop an old marine figure is almost the same height as a guardsman.

[@stevenholt5692]

Larger for me means easier to paint.

[@Sup3rSaiy3n]

Steven Holt Well yes if your eyesight is poor and/or hands shake. The Primaris are possibly easier to paint for newcomers but there is still the scope for a lot of detail. There are plenty of big models that require a lot of detail.

Interesting vid. The original plastic marines ( the Beaky Marines ) were smaller than the first one you showed ( not by much though ). It's the same with the Orks. Although the original metal Orks are TINY compared even to the first plastic ones. Oh, and I have a feeling that the new Primaris Captain you showed might be as tall as one of the original SM Dreads, lol.

[@Sup3rSaiy3n]

zednotzee7 Yeah I know they were but it was a comparison with my collection from the past 20 years. And models that are currently available, the beanies are not readily available anymore but I would've included them in the size comparison if I could.

[@ObjectiveMedia]

Adam Baker properly scaled with a proper stat line. Space marines were always so underpowered vs the lore

[@Konmael]

@@ObjectiveMedia Great ! We would make parties where an army of space marines would be made up of 3 miniatures versus an opposing army of a hundred opponents ... To balance "according to the lore". What a wonderful idea. "According to the Lore" an army of a few dozen Ultramarines is capable of defeating several thousand planetary defense guards. And so much for the orks, the tyranids, etc ... I am already planning the deployment phase! Ultramarine Player 1: Put a miniature on the table. Player 2: knock over a box of dozens of figurines. It must be understood that there is a monumental difference between a characteristic of 3 and a characteristic of 4. And that this difference is even greater between a characteristic of 4 and a characteristic of 5. It must be understood that a simple "3" can encompass the strength of a human barely stronger than a 14 year old non-athletic teenager, to that of a catachan guard resembling a bodybuilding practitioner.

About 10 years ago I rebased my vintage Termies by just putting their 32mm base on top of the new larger base. Little bit of paint and sand and they are equal height to the Dark Vengence and Space Hulk termies.

[@tabletopbattlezone5711]

I think the space marines were always way too short anyways, some of the old ones were shorter than some Imperial Guard minis, so I think the newer ones are great, but if you have an older army they will stand out and not match.

[@bobbobbing4381]

Middle aged man here who decided to go back to 40K recently with 9th edition. The size difference is insane. Good business thinking though as it means those of us with armies full of the 'old stuff' will eventually have to replace them. They just do not look right on the tabletop with such differnt sizes; itis not just height but girth. It's a whole scale thing.

[@ryanquinlan781]

You should look at the old dreadnughts that had twin bolters compared to the new ones they was tuned and well less amorured

[@timkats6635]

I had a feeling like that, but this really put it on display. Thanks for the video! Aside from that I got to say -lore aside*- I adore the Primaris marine models, the detail and more accurate size (compared to a guardsman) is just fantastic. *That being said, honestly 40K has always been a mixture of bad ideas over time made to look good and the relics of 40.000 stolen IP's from other Sci-fi at the time, oh that and WF stuff that was in turn greatly taken from the Fantasy being read around the time. I think getting to stuck up on the way the lore progressed is kind of silly. Cheers!

I think the watch Capt. is shorter than the Primaris. Its very close, but the Primaris is crouching.

[@Sup3rSaiy3n]

Trogdor The Burninator It is very close but the Primaris isn't 'crouching' but walking forward, still that size difference between the watch master and space marine tho.

[@kenwad75]

RTB-01 the original space marines made from injected plastic are super tiny. all of them have a hunched stance as well that makes them a bit smaller in scale as well. Primaris are almost dreadnaught size compared to them

[@jamesgreen6376]

love your channel i got in on 6th love and i mean love listening to the old hammerhead guys

[@jprp999]

I'm pretty sure that Marines were meant to be 6 ft 6 to 8 foot tall with about another 6" for armour and Primarchs around 10ft tall. so at 5mm to the foot that gives 32.5 - 42.5 for an armoured Marine.

[@jprp999]

Even a "realistic" imperial guard unit would probably have guys ranging from 5 ft to 6 foot 6 just like people in the real world.

[@catnium]

terminators used to have 3+ save on 2d6 lascannons had a -6 save modifier. rolling 9+ on 2d6 wasn't to hard .. i'm just saying..

[@Sup3rSaiy3n]

Catnium wow. What could kill them?

[@rosicroix777]

I think GW should put out a set of single pose marines that are in between the old/shorter type & the primaris/newer so armies can have a good mixture & the lore of SMs being different heights ( I remember a story where a SM captain thinks to himself that the SM he is looking @ is the tallest SM hes seen ) can be reflected. As it is players who have been around a while ( like myself ) wont have the smallest figures if we arent able to go out & buy multiple boxes of primaris marines ( though this is exactly what GW wants us to do ) . It is bad enough that GW is constantly putting out new rules average every 4 yrs which also means new codexs ( so every 4 yrs we all have to shell out approximately 75$ ). Personaly I think the 3rd ed rulebook had the right idea of including a mini codex for all the armies ( w/a couple of excetions ) & rules shouldnt be changed unless there is a major problem w/them as a few mo.ago I got the Dark Venngeance box set only to realize that the rules were no longer being used ( this is a prob especially when about 10yrs ago I had an employee @ a GW store pushing me to buy a codex when I bought a small starter force or chaos SMs only 2 have a new codex come out 2wks later, which he DID know was comming out). GW has ceased to be a Co. that was "Run By Gamers FOR Gamers" & turned into the worst type of money grubbing corporate assholes & its getting harder & harder to enjoy the game I got into in the late 80's. It's no wonder I scratch build all my vehicles & cast my own minis but thats out of neccessity, but finding out the new rules allow IG to fire lasguns @ a Leman Russ & actually damage it ( as they got rid of armor values ) just makes the game completley unrealistic.

TY all for taking the time to read my little rant.

I compare my minimarines to deathwatch marines , then with death guard marines , yeah they are making the gap between the normal Astartes and Primaris smaller , because one of the death guard literally is nearly the same height as a primaris , and deathwatch is also taller and closer to primaris marines IDK man my minimarines are gonna feel like dwarfs after this :( I guess im just gonna make them normal humans in power armour

[@noprobllama9747]

Nice video Sup3rSaiy3n, I do wonder if gw will ever transition completly over to primaris 'true scale' marines. Probably not in the near future but say 20-30 years from now. Btw, I think the captain fourth on the left is from the 'assault on Black reach' starter set.

[@kezzler9556]

Ah the assault on black reach set. God how I hated the poses on these marines. Luckily I have enough parts now to strip them down and bring them up to today's standard. The dreadnought ended up a lot beefier using the spare parts from a proper dreadnought, he actually looks cool now. So to those who have these sets, don't dump them, try to convert them into some cool minis.

The problem is that nobody ever settled on a scale. I used to figure at about 1/48 for Guardsmen. That was way back in the mists of time and even then that was only working off height, not proportion , and very , very rough.I also figured 1/48 for the vehicles but, with Land Raider and Rhino being what they were, that was as much a fancy on my part as anything else. Accessories from 1/35 armored vehicles worked well after all,.. Now ? god knows.. certainly looks like some mission creep going on , LOL Does it matter though ?

[@andrewwoodhead3141]

I think that when used in game , size isn't that important. The figurines are like chess pieces , it's what they represent that counts. Outside of the game, when simply used as figurines and nothing else, size matters. IMO the new Primaris are great looking models and the size makes for more detail and a more enjoyable painting experience. The resulting model is also more visually imposing , making for a more rewarding result.

[@swissguy101]

Just scale creep. I think they made the new bigger marines but they still had lots of old stock, and all those new kits like deathwatch, blood angels, that were still popular. So they didn't want to hurt sales by releasing 'truescale'. ....i even think they did that little leak online to guage reaction.

So how did the new primaris space marines get upskilled and more experienced than the other space marines some of which have been in constant battle for centuries >

[@jamesodonnell8323]

Since if regular space marines were to scale they'd be the size of the primaris models and the primaris boys ought to be a full head or more taller.

[@mrspelly7150]

Honestly: The new Primaris marines ARE true scale, if they stop right now. Ofcourse, the size of the other armies need to stay as they where when I played (2003) for this to stay true. Honestly, I am thinking of returning to 40k painting only to create a army of only (modded) gravis armor space marines. That armor looks so cool... if you take away the unnecessary accessories (like the shoulderpads).

[@Sup3rSaiy3n]

To ignore the lore is to ignore the complete universe these miniatures are set in. I have read the Primaris novels and how they are being integrated into current chapters. To replace the current range would need a drastic progression of the 40K universe. They are only 100 years into having Primaris in the lore so there aren't many around and they are not as battle-forged as the rest of the Space Marines. Space Marines are the size they are because GW & FW choose them to be. Both continue to make miniatures for the two types. Where we go from here though is anyone's guess. They sold space marines (40K), then older space marines (HH) and now Primaris (40K+). Space Marines are their most popular money making army. They are not going to replace them overnight. Primaris are also expensive, we're almost taking FW prices now, which many hobbyists will not be able to afford. A lot of the models are funky looking too such as the Aggressors, Inceptors, the Repulsor and even the Astraeus. Although the Redemptor and Intercessors are cool. Model wise there are many more fantastic miniatures in the 'standard' space marine and Horus Heresy ranges. If GW got rid of their biggest product line people would be disenfranchised and alienated because their collections would be pushed out and they would be expected to replace them with the bigger (not necessarily better) models. Leaving only the new hobbyists and early adopters of Primaris which would be insufficient to support the new range.

[@mrspelly7150]

Well, I am talking purely from the perspective of model-building. Perhaps even writing a codex for my new chapter.
