I know for a lot of people may have rushed to judge these guys harshly from their first pictures, and yes they did resemble the Ginyu force from DBZ just a little….
However since seeing the new pictures though, I’m digging them.
Overall I think they look very lithe and nimble with thier huge truck-a-saurus paws, but like with the old 13th Company models, the studio mixes just the right amount Astartes back into the overall look to sell it as a Space Marine.
Plus with the plethora of weapon options there may be a near unlimited amount of poses to choose from. Don’t miss the “Predator” style Grenade launcher on the backpack either.
Clocking in at $60 for five, I think this kit looks great, comes with a robust amount of components, and will be a “beast” of a unit on the table top!
