A Primaris marine will hold a normal marine with a heavy bolter by the ankles out the side door... actually, that will be my first conversion on the beast ;)

The Primaris marine should hold the regular marine under his arm like a gun and the heavy bolter must be held sideways for maximum cool.

Waiting for the day someone does a conversion of an open interior with a child safety seat for a normal space marine.

:D

Not for Guard armies though - "the airbags popped on the Chimera and killed the entire squad..."

I'm hoping for many to do exactly that, as I can immediately see the potential for my crawling-along-at-a-snail's-pace Space Crusade modernisation project, for which I will be needing 6 man/marine portable gatling guns...  :D

Sounds like we have similar plans ;)

I think it's bloody gorgeous, but I'm also sad that the land raider, the tank I saved up for four weeks and which
Was the death sentence fir anything in its way when I started, so now be the lesser of the marine tanks. Now if they release a primaris land raider then I'll be fine.
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

I actually quite like it, the ace marines should have better tech than the guard, so grab tanks seem pretty apt

In cruel jest the Primaris marines put all the coolest wargear in stowage bins high on the sides of the AFV where their little brethren just couldn't reach :D .

"You must be at least THIS tall to go on this ride."

I actually quite like it, apart from those missile pods and the twin guns on the front. The placement of those doesn't work for me. It might seem better when I see one for real.

I feel a book of bad poetry coming on:

I wish I was, my brothers,
Primaris just like you
I'd ride out in a Rhino
and fight your battles too

I'd shoot those orks and punch those Tau
I'd show the world my might
But you leave me in the fortress
Just for my lack of height

Your guns are twice the size of me,
Your glove could fit my head
But let me kill an Eldar
Or Las some Necrons dead

Strap me in my tiny Pod
And drop me down from space
Onto a world of Heresy
I'll melt its slimy face!

Excerpt from "The Littlest Space Marine".

You think GW will commission me?  And yes, I have been drinking...

No envy here: Space marines are plenty manly:

"I'm a Space Marine and that's Okay!
I pray all night and I fight all day!"
