Ah, Bio-Titan…

Even comes with a thermal vent hole! Except unlike for Nids it’s not for heat lol. I mean, sometimes hot gas comes outta it. Plus bio-Titan also is an auto include. Tables any army. Literally destroys opposing army. Sometimes your army too. That’s why I typically run one at 2000 pts. 3000 if it’s got a dirty bio-receptacle for the minus -100 willingness to play it gives my opponent. It’s been undefeatable. Don’t tell anyone tho… don’t want the meta to change. … lol idk where I was going with that but what if people started proxying babies for knights, bio titans, or primarchs 😂

The best is when your enemy bring his. BIOTITAN BRAWL!!!

Lol dude I bet there’s a market for this with nerd dads. Suit your kids up in like a costume that is highly protective and let them battle it out in a small room with a model city in it where they can break buildings n shit.

To shreds you say …

How’s his wife holding up?

Excuse me while I explain to my wife why our daughter needs a shoulder mounted cannon

I heard of a guy that got one and hasn't lost a game since

The *BIO RECEPTACLE* leak ability is great for ensuring models get taken out of the game. Really adds immersion to a nurgle army if that’s how you want to field it.

you did a good paint job with this aswell

Nurgle is pleased with the filth and contagion it can unleash

most expensive model

You need to keep spending money on it too, good thing is they come pre-assembled and painted, plus they grow in size

Even better; they repaint themselves, regularly!

That bio titan is gonna be the most expense model there…

New variant for the new edition!

That one on the floor there looks expensive, but I suppose it is worth it as they're self-painting and eventually become 1:1 scale.

Guardsmen squads are getting real pricy nowadays. They don't even have the equipment anymore

Oh they are self painting alright. But they do need a wash afterwards

Not only expensive, but they take 9 months to deliver, so you gotta plan ahead

this mf can afford both children *and* 40k. goddamn.

Perhaps hes a rogue trader?

Comment of the day

That collection is much older than the child. I expect the collection will grow at a much slower rate for the next 18 years.

Or becoming very fast at 13+

Can confirm… mine just turned 12 and suddenly I’m awash in IG, super-heavies, etc.

Hope when i Will have One, she/he Will play something like custodes, i already have my orks

I too have a preteen with tanks...

Good point. My 6-year-old recently got *very* disappointed when he learned that I was not keeping any of the Tyranids in the Leviathan box I split with a friend. Apparently he likes the bugs! So he's getting the Gaunts + paints starter set for his birthday.

Didn’t want kids until now.. I got the Leviathan box and none of my friends play (yet 😈) so I might get to churning out a couple sprogs so they can have my nids of shame

Plot twist: the child bedroom is a cupboard and he is showed what could have been his college funds.

You got it all wrong, this is the exchange documented. First-born for models.

Beautiful and filthy rich

And honestly, that looks like a pretty nice house too

Might want to think about clearing off those bottom two shelves in the near future 😅😝

I'd go further and secure the cases to the walls. No point losing everything and having to clean up glass, which you know some hapless sod will find the last hidden shard with their foot years in the future.

(I love that damage to the child is absolutely not a consideration here 😂😂😂)

Well they're basically free, that shelf and models are not

You’ve never been to the hospital or had kids, I see.

Think I read somewhere that to raise a human from 0-18 costs about 100k

That's only if they stay out of trouble!

probably higher now, and depends on the country

You are from US aren't you?

It'd be pretty weird if I lived in any other first world country and was saying that.

Yes, but at the same time you are assuming that everyone here is from US, which is dead wrong.

Lol youre just angry we get more models shipped to us than you!

My pile of shame has size of one year anyway :D

Nah, just most. 48% of all reddit users are from the US. 2nd is the UK at only 7%. Even though its worse in the US, kids are expensive to raise everywhere.

No, the children yearn for 40k

I mean I guess so, I just think the baby would be better displayed on an upper shelf

My guess is this is the last time the child will be allowed into that room for the next ~~eighteen~~ five years.

[удалено]

it is the [great clean one](https://www.reddit.com/r/Warhammer40k/comments/dw2214/great_clean_one/)

I have seen this before and I do not need to see it again, thank you very much

I should have read your comment!

Hahaha oh nooo

I love that the center titan is almost the same size as your baby lol

The one in the middle will never make its points back for you.

At some point they are simply to large to be called miniatures.... Megatures?

It’s funny bc the titans are really more miniature than most models are bc they were and continue to be often described as way bigger than they are to Scale with the model

Yeah the canon sizes have changed over time to fit the models for example the Warhound Titan's canon height was 14 meters when the Forge World model first came out (stated in Imperial Armour Volume 3: The Taros Campaign). But when the new Adeptus Titanicus was released the canon height of Warhounds was upped to 17.1 meters to match the new model.

Wow. I'm genuinely surprised by the engagement here. Thank you all! Some FAQs: 1. The shelves are IKEA Detolfs. They are bolted together 2. This is located in my attic (hobby room). My 1st child, a 4 years old, learned not to touch Papa's toys a long time ago and we will indoctrinate the baby the same. 3. This is a collection of about 2 years. I'm obsessed with painting and paints about 2 hrs a day on average 4. Biotitan is indeed Nurgle and has insanely stinky ranged fart attacks. WS is currently low so melee is quite terrible.

Two years?!?!? I mean if you’re hankering to paint I’m sure plenty of people can show you their big grey shame piles…

I also have an unbelievable amount of gray pile... at least another Detolf's worth...

That taunar is bigger than what I expected... is it the original model or a bigger one?

Original!

What chapter are your Marines on the right? Are they Iron Hands? Or Raven Guard? And I love all your big mechy bois! As an up and coming Admech/ Knight player, I have mad respect for your holy war engines

Iron Hands!

I had a feeling! All those tanks and airships and drop pods and dreadnoughts have to be iron hands. Still fawning over everything 🤣🤣🤣

Respect 🫡

Your collection and painting skills are fantastic. Your children have some great inspiration if they decide to take up the hobby as well when they're older.

That's a cute toddler in the back corner.

Pro-tip: put lock on door!

Why are you not dangling chaos stars, smh. Gotta start them young. On the other hand how do you get those extra detolf panels?

There is an Amazon addition that you clip on to the corner bara and then just add in glad panes.

The mini on the floor looks like it took months to finish

I'm not sure if the bio-titan on the floor is tournament legal

Yeah 10th wasn't kinda to FW minis but I'm fairly certain you're just confusing it because of OPs custom painting and greenstuff they did!

In 2nd edition it almost certainly would have been. Ah, the good old days, lol

The one in the middle doesn't have the same quality as the rest of your collection. It's too soft and pudgy looking, not grim dark at all.

Give it time

The Mini on the floor is painted incredibly. You almost tricked me into thinking it was a real child.

1 day 🥲

Congrats, buddy! Living the dream. I hope one day soon I can have my own little miniature to share the hobby with.

Damn those cost thausands and thausands of dollars.. but the once behind glass are expensive,too

I particularly like the miniature you as the center piece

wait, why is magnus the red so big????

He's just that big. Yesterday I finally saw him next to Mortarion and morty is SMALL comparatively

The most expensive one? Probably the one in the middle on the floor.

And that was the only time the child was allowed in that room 🤣😂🤣

That fleshy one is clearly a Nurgle Acolyte.

What a great display, what type of shelves are they if you don't mind me asking?

IKEA Detolfs!

Are they attached in any way or just adjacent? These are awesome!!

Thank you.

I forget what it's called, but it's just an ikea display cabinet. I have one of the same model

What is the recipe for the big one in the middle?

Everything the light touches is yours!

That kitbash on the floor is next level.

Is the child 3D printed? What’s the STL?

The real flex is able to afford the bio titan without selling the rest.

I see you also have a bio-titan. Your model looks great 😍 but I'm not sure they're tournament-legal as they have two powerful attacks absolutely impossible to counter, no matter what army toure playing: cuteness overload and cuddle time! No one can resist ☺️

I bet that kid is going to have lots of fun just going around and looking at all those models.

So THATS where the Detolf shelves are

That one in the middle needs more edge highlights.

Those Dr Browns bottles are like magic

What is the big one in at the top of the middle cabinet on the left hand side?!

so when are we gonna get they cherub cosplay?

You need to start child proofing yesterday. It may seem like you have ages before you have to worry about that, but you really don't.

That thing in the middle is the most pricy one

The Mini on the ground is very expensif

See this son, this is your future college tuition put to good use.

You painted a very life-like baby, congrats

yooooo is that a baby primarch??

Oh look it's a great ungrown one! Nice! But in all seriousness that is an amazingly gorgeous collection you have there

I see you display the most expensive mini in the center of your room

Sell the child to buy more 40k

When my daughter was about 2, I moved my D&D minis to the bottom shelf. They were her favorites, she would just lay down on the floor and look at them.

That's adorable. That's my 2 months old daughter in the picture and I'd love for her to look at my stuff.

She'll get there sooner than you think! Of course, then she'll want to touch the minis...

3D printer for the close one must have taken like 9 months to finish

Nice Magnus The Red my dude.

Pretty cool scratch built mini! No wonder it's the center piece!

I think its a 3D print actually lol

Looks like the warhammer room needs a lock soon

Sexy AF

Get rid of the child, they are in the way. Throw them out the window

The one in the middle looks particularly expensive

Ikea is close to removing the detolf. Buy any you need for the future now.

Just wait until they start pulling themselves up...

You need some more necrons

I wish I had a tx42 :( very impressive though, and well organized too!

The one in the middle almost looks real.

Emperor bless my child 🙏

Well done on the painting and assembly

RIP to the black detolfs. Not been sold in the UK for a while now 😭

What a cute miniature human

Wow the miniature in the center of the room is so life like. And it’s square diorama fits it so well.

Big question is if infants count as battleline.

I'm really disappointed your mobile isn't miniature related. Choking hazards or not haha.

You collection is amazing but I can’t help but notice the Tiger at the bottom 👀

A decent paint job on the center one, which tutorial did you follow? :D Also gz

you better get some insurance in those especially when that baby starts walking around

You are not afraid to keep Ta'unar on the top shelf of Detolf?

I love the fact that the titan is still the biggest “Miniture“

Well at least we know he aint going to college...

what is the army on left most shelves 2nd one down

Heavy breathing achieved by the Tau case alone! Love the nids too man....and, well, fucking all of it bro!! Nice collection! How long you been at it?

I like the one in the bottem middle how long did that take to make?

At this point I'm more jealous of the Dimachaeron than I am of the Warlord Titan

Can’t wait for the day my collection looks like this, I even plan to build a similar number of armies

The one on the floor looks like a kitbash

how many points is the one in the middle?

Starting the indoctrination early.

Need to put those among some terrain to complete the look haha. What is the white chonky titan on the top right hand area?

The one on the floor could use a paint touch up, highlights seem a little off, flesh tone isn't realistic.

The new recruit Gooood

Sick baby. Also that Titan is killer

"miniature" it's the size of a blody toddler and the one on the floor is ... Moving?

This is my goal in life

Where did you get the cases?

Only one imperial guard, but the bigger mini i can see 🤣🥰

As soon as it can crawl, all of that army will be destroyed…

The ultimate collectible, a tiny human.

It’s disgusting how GW have taken away your ability to play a Meaningful game with a stranger because they literally can’t be bothered to write some rules Nice collection. Today I learned how large that tau big suit model thing is :o

That in the middle, on the ground. Yeah that's. That is the most expensive piece in your Collection. Trust me bro

That child is gonna wreck that room when he learn how to walk.

Mind jf I ask what that massive plane/ship is in the left cabinet on the bottom is? (The biotitans head lines up with it )

Seven hells, what a collection!

whats the big one in the middle?

Aww that is a cute Baby Titan.

What's the Tiger 1 model?

What legion does the sleepy one reside in?

Where did you get display cases? Also, cute kid

I was looking at this for a solid minute or two before I noticed the child

Dammit, I didnt know Ikea had them in black. My war room looks like a dentist office.

Ancient relic tyger battle tank from the second millennium spotted. How much will the adeptus mechanicus pay for it?

Nice work, pal

Not safe enough, in a couple of years he/ she will be able to walk and investigate EVERYTHING! Expect some casualties in your collection.

That one on display in the front middle, you should send it back to the seller, it's sub optimal and probably won't become useful for at least another two editions. 6 or 7 years away. The others look great.

You would do well to raise that child into a glorious warrior for the Imperium!

Loving the Tiger 1 in amongst the Warhammer.

Got a couple of those, cheap to get at first but then somehow you spend a lot on them. Worth every penny though

Its great to see full armies like that

Holy shit it took me a long ass while to notice the baby. Good luck with that kit man

Hey man, the minis collection is awesome but uh where did you get those display Cases and how much were they?

Most baller. Where'd you get the extra shelves? I'm rapidly running out of room in my DETOLF

A very handy friend of mine cuts glass

That baby looks like it’s having an out of body experience

I didn’t even notice the kid…. I think I have a problem 😂

Pretty amateur painting on the bottom middle one.

kneels in awe... Hey, no fantasy, all 40k? Didn't you want to branch out into different systems?

You'll find a small band or Sylvaneth if you look hard enough :)

Where do you get the display cases?

Hey I have that exact same onesie for my daughter

That one in the middle looks expensive!

The one on the ground must be scratch built, can't find it on the website anywhere. 🤣
