I had the same exact though. Those terminator models are really showing their age too.

my BA use tartaros suits anyway, its just hard getting the claws and hammers off ebay for a squad.
tactical squad is sorted though..... was hoping for a dante or tycho style sculpt..... even the strike force alpha dude looks better.... and he is.... well...... disappointing.....

what is really new from this model? a cape and a winged hammer...... sorry that just aint good enough..... especially with people just a few months back buying space hulk.

I would have been happy if they put the Space Hulk Terminators into the set.

I bought Space Hulk mostly for the models.
They will be selling some more Space Hulk in Dec (have an email from GW that there is some stock left).

im not a fan of the SH termies either.
FW have the right idea, it seems GW generally have lost a bit of direction with the big armies..... i miss proper themed armies.

I bought it mainly for the models too but it sure is a fun stand alone game too!

Looks like the Tartaros version at least addresses the super model thighs problem the regular termies suffer from.

Yeah... I mean, if the box had new terminators, or if the captain's sculpt was so excellent that I didn't think "eh, that's pretty cool, but I could bash/sculpt something I liked even better," then I might be sold.
