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!

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.

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.

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.

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

Thanks got they made Space Marines bigger than Imperial guards, because old Space Marines where even smaller than normal humans, it was about time they made more realistic scale marines.

I'm curious if anyone has taken the time to actually measure the heights of the the different models. How many mm tall is a primaris? A 2000's marine? Etc.

Do you think they will only produce Space Marines in the new scale? ie eventually everything on shelves today will be replaced soon?
