Space Marines Rumor Roundup

[Patrick Boyle]

They might be kits with options rather than monopose packs. Other than that, no idea.

This is the only explanation I can think of. As for Sternguard, that price puts them in line with terminators, which seems odd, especially as Vanguard are cheaper. Hopefully the kit will be stuffed with bits.

As ever, awaiting pics!

Centurions
Heavy support choice. Living marine in heavier armor. PF, LC underslung on arms, HB, and Grav weapon option available. A heavier terminator armor that a marine straps into. 40mm Bases.

Hunter
An AAA Rhino. Visually a hybrid of the Vindicator's reinforced hull with a top mounted dual 3-barreled cannon weapon array. Alternative weapon option looks like the EPIC miniature, and fires missiles.

Vanguard
Plastic kit - In action poses similar to Death Company kit. Many assault weapons options including: TH/SS, LCs, Relic Blades, and many head options.

Sternguard
Plastic kit - Old veterans who have seen it all in visual style. Drumfed bolters as on the current metal models, and full weapon options, including Combi-options.

Tactical Marines:
General update to the kit. Look for more aesthetic detail such as purity seals, bonding studs, and subtle pose alterations. Missile launcher matches the Devastator kit.

Chaplain:
Plastic Kit - Bolt Pistol/Crozius. helmet and exposed head options.

Librarian:
Plastic kit - Exposed head. Force Staff, and Cherub.

You and me both, all of this does sound made of awesome. I'm mostly interested in the codex, sternguards and the new AA tank but I'm eager to see it all!

Centurion seems like a really weird word choice when Captains fill the role. It's kind of giving me a headache, so here's hoping one of the other languages is radder (here's looking at you El Cataclysmo).

So the SM Codex is up in price over the others?

[Mr Mystery]

Starting to sound like a realistic clutch of kits.

Not massively sold on the sound of the Centurions though. Not opposed or anything, just not grabbed by the description.

So the SM Codex is up in price over the others?

It's also apparently almost double the pages for some reason. Waiting for the WD on this one...

The termytubbies give me a reason to use my thallax cohort in 40k. Bonus.
