Sure at first it was like $30 just for one model, but then the scalpers bought them all up and now they’re $100 on eBay.
To me that’s just encouraging GW to jack up prices and make ridiculous rules to sell models. So I say NAY – I’m going full throttle Revolutionary Era and shouting, “No hobby price hikes without representation!”
Okay, it’s a super sexy model, but still, it’s no Death Company Chaplain, right?
So what’s a Raging Revolutionary Hobbyist to do? Well, I’ll just buy a pack of Space Marines and make my own dang Imperial Space Marine. Enter Retribution Angel YouTube Channel bringing the hobby heat with this tutorial on how to make the Imerpial Space Marine and the Disintegration gun!

So, basically, you take a bolter, (Pretty sure this is from the Sternguard kit, which, if you didn’t get the memo, is an amazing kit) slice it up, drill some holes, plug in some 2mm plastic pipe, splash in some wire for details, add some green stuff, do some sculpting, and profit.
Yes, if you don’t have the parts this turns out to cost more than just buying the single Space Marine, not including your time, effort, and possible fail, but you can probably tell the difference between this guy and your mates a bit more. I imagine we’ll be seeing a ton of 30th Anniversary Space Marines on the table top in the next couple of months. Jeez, this is like when I was in 1st grade everyone had the same red convertible racecar.
