£17.50 for a scout?
That's some strong shot you're smoking.

Oh well at least Azrael got an upd-...oh...

[Belligerentparrot]

Yeah, I don't imagine that guy will fly off the shelves  Easy enough to convert a better-looking mini from the current kits if you want the character.

The new Tzeentch disc rider, on the other hand, looks amazing.

[majorsmith]

Yeah that scouts way overpriced!!! Stupidly in fact and it’s not even that nicer figure

[mcfonz]

Miniatures may not be particularly nice. But I see plenty of piss poor older sculpts on ebay go for extortionate amounts of money. Each to their own. There is always someone else's view on objects. Tis the way of the world and it'll never be changed.

Easier just to shrug your shoulders and move on.

I never really get why people pay thousands of pounds for a watch when a £20 will still tell the time - it doesn't mean I think I'm right, or they're wrong. We're just different. And who am I to care about how someone else spends their money?

... and it’s not even that nicer figure

So it will fit in with the rest of the scouts...
(Disclaimer: Space Marine Scouts in their current form are some of my least favourite GW figures - YMMV).

Current plastic scouts are pure trash.
The metals are superior.
Just this one wasn't 😂

[Elbows]

Yeah the basic metal marine scouts were superbly done - I painted up a bunch a year or two ago.  The plastics are horrid (well the faces at least).  The Naaman dude is awful.  A bit laughable he's the cost of an entire box of modern plastics from places like Fireforge, or Oathmark, Frostgrave, etc.

[AWu]

I disagree. Scout s are not that bad when you head transplant 



Is photo visible? Google made something silly with links

[Lost Egg]

Yep, I can see the pic. I agree with you too, the old Pig Iron heads worked well and the ones you have there look good too AWu.

[Storm Wolf]

Yeah what is the deal with the plastic scout heads, they are awful

I have some nice sensible Pig Iron heads in ballistic helmets on order for my one plastic box of scouts and the scout land speeder storm that I have got to build for my Raptors chapter.

My metal scouts are cool and I have always liked them

Better than gurning scouts

Anyone noticed the bird like flier in top left corner of the codex ?

Also the new hunter ogre or what ever their called now looks tempting and I had decided not to buy any gw stuff any more 😂

[Lost Egg]

I do like his understated look.

Yeah I had wondered about that bird.

[beefcake]

I'll be getting that ogre for sure. I might even try to pick up a second to get to sabretysks and convert the other ogre.

Is... is that a BEARTRAP CROSSBOW?!

Off course not, don't be ludicrous. It's a bear trap harpoon gun.
