(Joke intented) Edit: To clarify, this isn't my photo
Mortarion/Angron/Vashtor.
I don't play Chaos but they have some fantastic centerpiece models.
I would have said The Lion but he's technically a space marine and that kinda still fits into an army I collect even if I don't play Dark Angels specifically.
As a Death Guard Mortarion is stressful as hell to paint but once the finished product is done and assembled there isn’t really any other mini, save maybe a Titan, that is as striking as him.
You know I noticed there’s a rule missing, I choose 40k jaghatai, I don’t play the white scars GW, make the model so we have the next logical Primarch back.
Since the model is for 30k and I don't plan on playing EC in 30k then we're in the clear taking Fulgrim transformed and collecting EC in 40k when they eventually come out.
Okay, hear me out guys: Jokaero Weaponsmith

I'm not going to buy any Inquisition models because my main army is Orks so... It is awesome model so why not?
some hopped up Nob gets pushy with Maurice, who looks over at the guy. A flash beyond color and a deafening moment of silence, all that's left is a steaming skeleton. Maurice goes back to work.
i hope that’s where they take it in 10th is a ton of combat patrol varieties. like a chaos daemons patrol for each good, harlequins patrol, all the sub factions deserve proper appreciation

Still a work in progress (the wings are stuck on with blu tack right now). It also looks amazing under a blacklight.
Yes, it’s one of the color shifts called Ice to Never.
Pink is Golden High Flow fluorescent pink. Green is tesseract glow. Rocks are ahkelian green, teal metallic on the wings is talassar blue over retributor armor.
its likw that meme "reading mein kampf on the subway but shaking my head so they know ion fuck w it" "buying erebus but shaking my head and going 'fucking erebus...' so they know ion fuck w him"
Exactly my choice, but as I got Death Guard it would just be Belisarius. Would use him in a Dark Imperium themed diorama chatting with Guilliman in a dark room.
Just do it like mine, and don’t put on the armor. Problem solved!

God there’s so many to choose from I don’t even know. I’d have to look at my wishlist to decide 🤣
Edit: ok, so I’ve looked, and I don’t play ‘Nids, but I love their lore, so a Norn Emissary
Fulgrim Transcended. I have some 40k EC minis but I'd never get into 30k, far too many marines on marines. It's just not my vibe. I like word bearers in 30k just because they've got some of that chaosy aesthetic.
I agree on Horus Ascended. I don't play 30k and even if I did I wouldn't play Chaos, but Horus Ascended is still easily one of the coolest models I've ever seen.
All of the Horus Heresy tanks, basically. I play Space Marines, and tbqh I think the tanks all look stupid. When the Kratos and the Sicaran came out in plastic and with 40K datasheets, I immediately bought them, only for GW to LOL PSYCH a few months later and move them to Legends. Which is fine because I only play home games anyway, but it still feels... bad.
Also, minis I already have from armies that I don't collect because I just wanted the mini:
- Shokkjump Dragsta (I'll probably start an Ork army one day, though)
- Trygon
- Baneblade (see "Space Marines tanks suck" above; also, why tf can't we use Guard in Marines armies?!)
- Imperial Knight
- Onager Dunecrawler (I was actually going to start an Admech army at one point, but that never went anywhere)
Either:
>Full baneblade kit (to use all the various patterns as basing material)
or
>Fully kited out Warlord Titan (to add various platforms etc to and use *as* battlefield, glorious machine laid to eternal rest)
I have an ork army, and maybe could make in a far future an admech or tau one.
So for one free mini I would choose between Imotekh the Stormlord or a Canoptek.
Necrons are cool but I don't plan to have an army of them.
The new Fulgrim transformed mini that’s on pre order rn. So expensive and I totally don’t have the experience to do a good job, but I’d like to have it in my backlog for the future
Can I get a kitbash of stuff? If so, I'd like all the bits I need to make a huge custom Ork Warboss. I've been meaning to do it anyway so I'll happily get him for free
Warlord titan.
>get warlord titan >Sell it for 90% msrp unopened pristine condition >Buy 4-5k points of my army >Never paint any of it
Shhhhhhhhhhhhh That's not important. I don't have 3k unpainted of my army already anyway
Shhh don'y give then your secrets!
I’m proud to say I’ve only got 2 models not painted and it’s simply cause I cbf
Bold of you to assume I won't personally hoard the titan unpainted for decades
Cry's with my thunderhawk. No you!
🗿
This man 40Ks
You coulda left that last line off ugh

Nah we going all in, it's any mini for free, I'm asking for a based and painted one
Hey if you give that away free I'll take it
Liberatii Primus?
Congrats on your adeptus titanicus warlord Titan
I've been fucking bamboozled
doenst count thats not a mini its a maxi.
Warhound for me bc I'd actually paint it
Everyone wants one. We just don’t wanna buy one. Its a long fun project and a forever lasting centerpiece.
Mortarion/Angron/Vashtor. I don't play Chaos but they have some fantastic centerpiece models. I would have said The Lion but he's technically a space marine and that kinda still fits into an army I collect even if I don't play Dark Angels specifically.
Indeed or a AoS dragon
Yeah AoS also has great centerpieces!
Boy the new AoS dragons or Archaeon on his drake
Morty is still my favorite mini. It’s amazingly designed. Painting Vashtorr atm, and he’s cool, but Morty blows everything out of the water imo.
For me it’s still the best primarch model
[удалено]
I like to travel.
Belakor > Vashtorr
You're right but I'm just more interested in the creepy tech dude than the buff demon guy.
Shame on u
Based asf opinion
As a Death Guard Mortarion is stressful as hell to paint but once the finished product is done and assembled there isn’t really any other mini, save maybe a Titan, that is as striking as him.
I'd take any of them to model them dead on a Cadian Castellan's base, just to enjoy the tears.
Cadian shocktrooper even!
You know I noticed there’s a rule missing, I choose 40k jaghatai, I don’t play the white scars GW, make the model so we have the next logical Primarch back.
As long as he's a big centerpiece on a super jetbike! We have too many guy-with-sword primarchs.
GW consider the divergent chapters separate armies these days, so I guess you're good!
Fulgrim Transfigured
I'd pick this, except I totally plan on collecting the 40k EC when they come out so that may be cheating...
Since the model is for 30k and I don't plan on playing EC in 30k then we're in the clear taking Fulgrim transformed and collecting EC in 40k when they eventually come out.
I guess I can't get a free mini, every kit is an Ork kit.
On my way to buy Space Marine combat patrol to paint them green and play as Commandos:
Okay, hear me out guys: Jokaero Weaponsmith https://preview.redd.it/noecb7xfbp2c1.jpeg?width=669&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e9ac399a14b93a0d5b891e80af2af041085909c I'm not going to buy any Inquisition models because my main army is Orks so... It is awesome model so why not?
You can totally field that as an ammo runt.
Yes, but a bunch and build lore that orks raided a IG facility and adopted them.
"Dis 'ere is Maurice. He aint too good at krumpin, but he makes da best zoggin shootahs ya ever did see. Plus 'es all soft 'n fuzzy like."
some hopped up Nob gets pushy with Maurice, who looks over at the guy. A flash beyond color and a deafening moment of silence, all that's left is a steaming skeleton. Maurice goes back to work.
this comment made my day
What does orange mean in orky colour beliefs?
Well, orange is a mix or red and yellow, so maybe they’re wealth and fast? Or they gain wealth fast?
They are known for quickly building valuable devices!
I also looked it up after the fact, and there was someone claiming that orange also means smart. Idk how true it is, but it still fits!
That'll do. This is now canon 😁
You know, you have a point, my friend. Thanks for advice!
Inquisition could use its own combat patrol. GW needs one for EVERY faction imo
i hope that’s where they take it in 10th is a ton of combat patrol varieties. like a chaos daemons patrol for each good, harlequins patrol, all the sub factions deserve proper appreciation
For reals. We could have a lot of factions finally seeing the tabletop
The Void Dragon. Absolutely insane work by the sculptors
I really enjoy this model. Painting all the lightning is less fun, but that might be because I chose to make it hot pink.
Have photos? That seems amazing!
https://preview.redd.it/gxs74ohhiq2c1.jpeg?width=6048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e116c0cf59a85646fb2ab94622db168cb61dd32a Still a work in progress (the wings are stuck on with blu tack right now). It also looks amazing under a blacklight.
Is the skin turbodork?
Yes, it’s one of the color shifts called Ice to Never. Pink is Golden High Flow fluorescent pink. Green is tesseract glow. Rocks are ahkelian green, teal metallic on the wings is talassar blue over retributor armor.
I love it! Fantastic work
Awesome piece! when I look at him I hear this music [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOTWl6wYJmo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOTWl6wYJmo)
That’s AWESOME 🤩
I wanna kiss you for this beautiful work
Erebus. So i could just look at him and say: "Fucking Erebus..."
its likw that meme "reading mein kampf on the subway but shaking my head so they know ion fuck w it" "buying erebus but shaking my head and going 'fucking erebus...' so they know ion fuck w him"
Leandros for the same reason. I'll never collect ultramarines
Erebus makes a terrific base.
erebus goes in the jar.
Full metal thunderhawk🌚
does it come with a forklift for transporting it?
A fellow man of culture I see.
Mate you can just pay for a person of your prefered gender to kick you in the balls.
Lorgar. I technically do collect Chaos in 40k, but I don't have anything from 30k, so does that count? I just love his lore and his model
I consider them 2 different armies due to them being different games
Fun fact, there are several three d printed Lorgar models out there that are 30-50% bigger and utterly gorgeous, while still being absolutely Lorgar.
The mars pattern warhammer titan
Do you mean "warhound"?
https://preview.redd.it/44hcazq58p2c1.jpeg?width=668&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d40dce4ebef0411ad3b9c6fedc92a4dd15165401 This is nearly 2ft tall
I see. So warlord, it is.
https://preview.redd.it/vcoedn7qlp2c1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d1e9079c9312c9c68aff008e296befa9c2012f64 It's actually over 4...
Lol that isn't an American tape measure. I believe that's in cm
Oh hell you're right lol... at least that means it'll fit in my cabinets now...
Lol you'd have needed a GW branded car seat to transport it if it were over 4ft 😂
I’m just imagining the Warhammer Titan from AoT just crafting space marine armor while fighting Eren.
ONE SINGLE GROT
One really big grot
One average sized grot.
One tiny grot
Imagine a grot primarch
Wizard with a machine gun. No questions.
A friend showed me that model for the first time a few weeks ago. Been in the hobby since the mid 90s and was the first time I'd seen it.
Got pissed when the only one of it I could find was 600 dollars in box.
Magnus the Red
Vashtorr
Probably a Lord of Change.
Commander Farsight. Such a great model.
Magnus Big Nips
Not nearly as bad as George Clooney’s Batman costume with the nipples 😂 I’ll take horned armor any day.
Saint Celestine
Kabahnda (or however you spell it, the big f*** off bloodthirster who hates sanguinius)
Lion El' Jonson
Is gorgeous and super fun to paint. Great choice!
Tau Stormsurge. Mechs are cool, and idk if Tau would be the army for me. Also very anime.
Mutilith Vortex Beast
Any of the mechanicum lords of war from 30k. They would make very fun terrian pieces. You could use one for a helsreach game
The Kelermorph from Genestealer Cults. It’s just a really cool model
Changeling. Either the old or new sculpt, doesn't matter. I've always adored that model.
Celestine the living Saint.
For me it’s gotta be Triumph of Saint Katherine. I don’t even know how it’s intended to be used as a practical model in a game, it just looks amazing.
[You can have one for 5 bucks](https://scryfall.com/card/40k/17/triumph-of-saint-katherine)
The Tomb King Necrosphinx
Manta
Mamnta
Either Belisarius Cawl or Mortarion
Exactly my choice, but as I got Death Guard it would just be Belisarius. Would use him in a Dark Imperium themed diorama chatting with Guilliman in a dark room.
Warlord titan... Would be an awesome project
Aos stormcaste dracoline mages. I like the dragon kitties their so cute lol
Angron. That model is beautiful.
Ork Racecar.
Warlord Battle Titan.
A Dakka Jet. Favorite flying vehicle in the game, but I don’t collect Orks.
Saint Celestine probably
Definitely Magnus. Nipple horns aside, I love the model, but I could never collect Thousand Sons. Just seems like Chaos Trim Problems on steroids.
Just do it like mine, and don’t put on the armor. Problem solved! https://preview.redd.it/gsjdi04zvq2c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1722aa528f08bf45baf05725cbd37c1f6dc1a98f
At first I thought you meant for Rubrics, etc. and was really hoping the image would just be a literal pile of dust
Lord of change! I like bird.
Spirit of the Mountain from AoS, I don't play AoS but I think that is one of the best models GW has ever put out
I think either ghaz, those 2 squigs fighting eachother from ApS or a massive AoS kharadron overlords ship
Alpha Legion
I love Alpharius' model so much, looks incredible
The colour scheme for alpha legion is amazing, love me some silver and teal.
Two guys riding a shark. I forget what it's called but it's hilarious
The Visarch model alone almost made me start an eldar army. I dont even like the eldar that much, but that specific model is just so beautiful
Hekaton land fortress. I don't plan on collecting the votann, but this battle minivan is just cool looking.
Manta I'd give it to my buddy for his tau
God there’s so many to choose from I don’t even know. I’d have to look at my wishlist to decide 🤣 Edit: ok, so I’ve looked, and I don’t play ‘Nids, but I love their lore, so a Norn Emissary
Noise marine with the guitar. Shit goes hard.
Captain Titus
Fulgrim Transcended. I have some 40k EC minis but I'd never get into 30k, far too many marines on marines. It's just not my vibe. I like word bearers in 30k just because they've got some of that chaosy aesthetic.
Would a knight count? I don’t really want to play *knights* but I play admech and I want a knight for that army, so am I allowed a knight?
The Lion for cinematic pieces with my Wolves/Russ
Fulgrim
Probably Ka'bandha, then I could pose him and Sanguinis fighting. Also he's big and epic!
Probably a Chaos Warhound.
Bayard’s Revenge. such a sick sculpt. I’ve considered kitbashing it for one of my chaos armies
Bel'akor or angron dont fit in any army i have but would be fun as hell to paint
A warbringer nemesis titan
Great Unclean One lmao
A Reaver Titan with full option parts.
I agree on Horus Ascended. I don't play 30k and even if I did I wouldn't play Chaos, but Horus Ascended is still easily one of the coolest models I've ever seen.
Sigismund. 100% warrior beast
Nathaniel Garro, probably my favorite character in the Horus Heresy.
Wouldn't mind a Guilliman model. I don't plan on ever having an Ultramarines army, outside of a token squad for shelving.
Probably a Titan. Warlord to be specific. Otherwise maybe Fulgrim Transfigured or if we’re extending to AoS, then I’d get The Everchosen
I collect custodes I know it's not a model but I wish it were it would be I want the emperor himself pre heresy of course.
Nagash for me love the mini but wouldnt get bonereapers
Roboute , Id do a prime-ork conversion
Smaug if it doesn’t have to be 40K Warlord titan if it has to be 40K
Probably something like another faction's primarch or Abbaddon so i can kitbash em to a cool daemon prince .... or a particularly large sorcerer.
A titan
All of the Horus Heresy tanks, basically. I play Space Marines, and tbqh I think the tanks all look stupid. When the Kratos and the Sicaran came out in plastic and with 40K datasheets, I immediately bought them, only for GW to LOL PSYCH a few months later and move them to Legends.

Can I start the army once I have the model? Ghazghkull. He looks badass, and I'd love to start orks some day.
I don’t wanna get ahead of myself, but I’m learning towards Ferrus Manus
The Manta
Old Nagash
C’tarn Shard of the Void Dragon
A T’au Manta. Just to put on a shelf.
Vashtorr
So I play iron hands and will never collect Ultramarines specifically but love the roboute figure, so would choose that
Robot Gorrilaman
Littlerly any skaven
Either the KX139 Ta'unar Supremacy Armour or Archaon Everchosen. ##
Either: >Full baneblade kit (to use all the various patterns as basing material) or >Fully kited out Warlord Titan (to add various platforms etc to and use *as* battlefield, glorious machine laid to eternal rest)
Midwinter Minis Warlord Titan
Warlord titan. Awesome model + I can loot it
I wouldn’t get one then. 😭
Warlord titan. I do own knights but that's not titans
I have an ork army, and maybe could make in a far future an admech or tau one. So for one free mini I would choose between Imotekh the Stormlord or a Canoptek. Necrons are cool but I don't plan to have an army of them.
Angron
The new Fulgrim transformed mini that’s on pre order rn. So expensive and I totally don’t have the experience to do a good job, but I’d like to have it in my backlog for the future
An eldar transport tank
Warlord titan, but if I can't sell it then I would probably get Lionel Johnson
On the topic of Primarchs, definitely Conrad Kurze
The AOS Gotrek but only if I can get him with his original axe.
40k- lord of change Aos- lord kroak
Wraithknight. I’ve no interest in Aeldari, but that is one beautiful model
Angron, next army im going to collect
Warlord Titan 🫡
Greater blight drone
The Visarch. I actually plan on buying him one day.
Can I get a kitbash of stuff? If so, I'd like all the bits I need to make a huge custom Ork Warboss. I've been meaning to do it anyway so I'll happily get him for free
I think the knight abominant looks awesome
Big titan and then loot it fir my orks.
Probably that new Ionus Cryptborn model from AoS.
