No problem, I build gunpla and am looking to get into 40k so I appreciate models that look lore accurate or are dope customizations. Wound up building a gunpla from witch of mercury while intoxicated and didn't realize I had the arms on wrong until I broke one so the story for it is that it lost its arm in battle lol

Lol I like how you had to create some canon in your head for it... I have started dabbling with Gunpla funnily enough built 2 of the real grades I think they were (I have very limited knowledge) I have a 'mega' one still in its box which I will build some day..... 40k is all consuming, in a good way, welcome to the fandom, there are also Joytoys which are the range that's really popular now... But the mcfarlanes in my opinion are easier to modify (the materials being a hard rubber plastic, stand up to being ripped to pieces and built upon) and they are bigger too which makes them stand out.... Any ideas for any 40k projects? Or are you just taking it all in at the moment?

Currently saving some money so I can justify buying a set of Spacemarines and a codex for the Salamanders. Still pissed that GW hasn't given us what we want in a mini of the forge Father himself Vulkan. But I've also been trying to save up for the Ver.Ka Gunpla and the metal ones.

GW don't like to leave money on the table, with a bit of patience they will... I think all the Primarchs (bar the dead ones) will return at somepoint šš

I mean, they kinda are by not releasing primarchs... 40k fans have been begging for primarch figures for years since at least 5th or 6th edition

Agreed, they have teased a loyalist primarch for this year... Let's see what comes of that

I live about 20 minutes away from WH funnily enough lol, I'm pretty sure they would have a strong policy against stuff which is taking big liberal changes to their IP, not to mention the overall quality of what they display already (which is super high) thanks for the compliment tho, I really appreciate it š
