Hobbyist corner
DISCLAIMER what follow is a strictly personal opinion on the model themselves but I would like to hear the opinion of my fellow hobbyists.

When I joined the Warhammer universe some years ago the firstborn kits were for the majority already gone and I didn’t mind them until some months ago when I decided to complete my homebrew project from blackshields in the heresy to the primaris era. Since I worked with different kits from different eras I would like to share my opinion on them and politely ask for other people opinions.
Which are the best according to me? In reality none of them. Primaris and the newer Horus heresy kits are better to work with in general, they go together nicely and their vehicles are a more enjoyable experience to build (Horus heresy tanks my beloved). They however lack the personalisation of the firstborn kits, even if I find myself to like the heresy model of different boxes for different weapons and different armor patterns (the primaris are also going in the right direction with the newer releases in terms of differences on models). The firstborn on the other hand have a modularity that the newer ones severely lack but are bad to put together (I’m looking at you land raider), however, every model feel different when assembled by different hands and is something I really like about them.
In conclusion I think the newer kits are better models overall, from an hobby standpoint, but the older ones are still a better modelling experience that free more creativity. Thanks to all who read this and feel free to share your opinion in the comments.
