Thread 11520226

What in my name edition.

You guys see this yet ? Just went up for preorder on Amiami last night. It's a backdrop for some scale figure but it's being sold separately for around $52 USD. Couple of candles and servo skulls scattered about and you've got yourself a pretty respectable display for your Joytoy 40K stuff

>>11520297
>four gun barrels
>only one ammo feed

Perty didn't quite think this through.

>>11520297

What are the tubes in the head for again?

>>11520445
Transferring battlefield info straight to his brain for fast processing.

>>11520445
we only know for sure for Horus.

>>11520297
Why is he so pale though

Horus still mogs Pepe

>>11520578

Horus and his son.

>>11520566
Why are you so brown?

>>11520578

Is Perturbabo a small primarch? Shouldn't he be taller in terminator armor?

>>11521203
Horus is based specifically on the "Horus Ascended" version, where he's suffused with the power of Chaos and basically the same size as the Emperor. He's HUEG.

>>11521203
Nah, Perty is one of the bigger ones. The littlest Primarch, at least if we're going by official models is Lorgar.

why are the skitarii joytoy rangers so expensive compared to the marines and such, extra detailing and tooling?

>>11521628

Whoa he must be HUEG now if he's a daemon primarch

>>11520288
I pre-ordered it.

3rd party upgrade kit when?

>>11522987
Isn't this daemon prince version? You can see there's metal underneath the mask.

>>11523069
It's all fanart. As far as I know there's no official post-heresy art of him.

>>11522672
Finally- someone in this thread who appreciates culture

>>11523069

He wouldn't look that cool as a daemon primarch.

>>11520288
Can I order that thing on aliexpress?

>>11523812
I don't believe so, but if you're searching for alternatives, "Angel Nun Sheng Yu Background Set" is what it's listed as.

Why is this general so dead these days? Why did JoyToy slow down this much? They used to churn these out every other day it used to seem. And now it's a small something every two weeks or so at best. What's going on? Are they even going to finish the Primarchs?

I myself did get a little burned out. I've not bought anything since Valdor or Alpharius (whoever went up for PO last). No Rubrics, and they were "teased" 2-3 years ago. No Eldar. No fun xenos to pit against the Marines I already have. It all feels static. Honestly, if I got my few remaining Primarchs that I want, I'd be likely to call it a day.

>>11522382
They've been on sale for cheaper on and off, but there certainly is an element of them benefiting from reusing molds for marines. I'm comfy and feeling kinda zonked so I might stay

>>11522382

>>11523963
We're all quite spoiled at this point, compared to back then when we're on pins and needles speculating on what's getting released or not. Now it's clear that Joytoy is filling most of everyone's wish lists, besides the usual xenos stuff that is still obviously lacking. So there's just very little discussion at the moment.

>>11523963
Can you name any other toy line which moves 10% as fast? They just released a new Primarch and you're whining.

>>11523963
Hasn't been much stuff to draw my interest lately, though I'm looking forward to the tanks. I feel like I've completed my collection in terms of space marines and I'm not interested in re-buying them in the new, larger scale (they look very nice, though). I'm primarily keeping an eye out for more xenos, especially Tau.

I did recently pick up the Juggernaut on a whim to give my wolf rider someone to duel. Loved it so I picked up a few Berserkers to go along with him. They're at the new larger scale, I believe? I think Berserkers being huge is appropriate, though! They look awesome too.

For anyone in the US; have you noticed things seem to be way more expensive on AliExpress now? Even without the added tariff fees on checkout. I bought all my World Eaters domestically because it was way cheaper than buying on AE.

>>11523963
Got too expensive. tariff fears too.
Scale problem got too bad for most people.
Too many people experienced their toys breaking one too many times.

There's considerably fewer people posting their own toys now and i fully understand why.

Personally, across all my hobbies but books, i've been buying less new shit and just concentrating on what i missed out on before.

>>11523963
I want xenos plus more Imperial Guard with vehicles and JoyToy hates me for not buying plain white Tau shit nor their tacticool Orks with soft sculpts.

I know GW is pushing new stuff but I just want a few MK7 marines, fuck.

Shot in the dark have there been any hints toward giving a company rights to fantasy figures? I always liked those books as a kid and I would love a Malus or at least a Dark Elf adjacent, but the lines seem hellbent on Space Marines. Not even an Drukhari from what I have found that I might be able to make a custom out of.

>>11524695
Perhaps I just need to learn to love 40k buy the story I think is cool but the future setting just turns me off.

>>11523963
They kept alienating me with retarded scale jumps. All I wanted is a consistency.
>head too small
>head too big
>legs short
>legs long
>sudden torso increase
>same patterns look and scale wildly between releases
It's just so random.

>>11524695
Joytoy did do a squad of some Age of Sigmar guys a little while ago, so its not beyond the realms of possibility, but Games Workshop itself has weird issues with classic Fantasy. Maybe some of the crossover stuff like demons or Lizardmen? You'd think some Total Warhammer tie-ins would be a thing at least. You're right though, much like GW itself they've all gone down the rabbit hole of marines forever

>>11523963
For me a combination of not buying many toys (for me) these days as we've had our hands full with our son (due to turn 1 on the 24th) and a certain shitposter making any discussion of the line into a game of Russian Roulette with the risk of permanent thread derailment.

>>11524695
>>11524891
They had a team of Stormcast Eternals which are just fantasy Space Marines anyway. Space Marines are the most popular faction so GW focuses on them with releases and marketing so they stay the most popular faction and everyone else gets scraps.

>>11524943
That's the irritating thing about this thread in general. You want to discuss the toys but he turns it into a reddit thread of uhm actuallys and endless replies.

I'm really waiting for Angron and the Imperial Knight to come in, too. I have both preordered and paid for.

4th Legion bros, we are so back.

>>11523963
>Why is this general so dead these days?
That guy isn't starting dumb arguments

>>11524955
Oh no, don't get me wrong, I don't like ground marines either I'm just saying if they were going to do more fantasy stuff it's almost certainly going to AoS related and if we're lucky it'll be something closer/equivalent to Old World. I want more aliens, demons, beast-things and weird humans instead of yet another power armour wearer.

>>11524958
I peordered Angron on aliexpress ages ago but hadn't realised there was a delay and wasn't able to extend the delivery window in time. Hope he's good anon.

>>11524990
Nice Iron Warriors. I love the griminess and the trench-mud base on the Terminator. Hazard stripes on the power armoured fellow could do with work but otherwise looking good. I like that you put some on the mask.
Speaking of painting, I'm seriously considering repainting and slightly modding my JT Black Legion guys into /mydudes/. I've only got three at present (Terminator, a standard bolter bloke and a champion); the actual figures are great, mind, just they're a bit...I dunno, vanilla? Ironically I have no desire to do so to my JT Ultramarines but then again those figures have far more variety by virtue of there being more of them available.

>>11525039
More alien and fantasy races would be great but looks like we'll have to wait until they release every single version of every single unit of every single chapter of spess mareens, 40k and heresy, and then all the named characters, before they consider releasing anything else.

>>11525182
should have bought 5 of everything if you want more xenos.

There is only the Emperor!

>>11525091
I appreciate it. I love the old elephant helm Chaos Termies. And yeah, I did the stripes on the 30K Legionnaire in a rush, I may go back and redo them.

In terms of repainting the guys, good luck; painting while is a gigantic pain in the dick.

>>11524958
>it's totally one guy's fault no one posts in these threads anymore and not because fewer people are buying the toyline because of the reason that one guy bitches about (out of scale/shittyQC/shittypaint/bad choices/supremelyoverpriced)
It's never Joytoy's fault because they're the perfect company, huh?

I mean, we're finally get one of the most iconic vehicles in the setting and there's no hype. Completely forgotten about in less than a thread.
That must be my fault somehow.

>>11524407
I'm guessing the Cadians sold poorly since we never got regular Cadian guardsmen for army building

And he's already here to derail the thread. Marvellous. Couldn't even make it to 50 posts.

>>11525416
>In terms of repainting the guys, good luck; painting while is a gigantic pain in the dick.
I am aware. Fortunately I have an airbrush and Mr. Hobby paints, which should make things easier. In fact I think painting the figures will be easier than painting my actual models ironically enough.

>>11525290
He is our shield and our protector! >:)

>>11525500
Just like a bad smell that turns up when you least expect it. Probably couldn't bait in his usual /tg/ and /m/ threads so he scuttles back here.

Anyway you guys think they're going to go bigger than the Imperial Knight? Or are we going to see some of the more chunkier tanks get made into toys (Baneblade/Leman Russ)?

>>11523963
>Why is this general so dead these days?
>>11523963
>I myself did get a little burned out.
gee i wonder why its so dead

>>11525492
>one of the most iconic vehicles
>the predator
>in red
now you're truly showing how much of a secondary you are, subby.

>>11525953
>doesn't know it's all variants of the same shit
remember when you pretended Joytoy got the scale right by using a 2011 video game as a comparison for characters that weren't invented until 2017?
I remember and it's how i learned you guys know nothing about WH40k.

I'm surprised you're still posting here, not just because you do an awful job at marketing Joytoy's products, but that they can still afford to pay their shills despite the decrease in sales.

>ib4 this thread becomes 300 posts long, because random anon is more interesting than Joytoy's toys
... but even the last 6 or so threads died long before they hit the bump limit and i was discussing actual toy releases in a few of them.

I actually miss that more than half as many people aren't posting their own toys nowadays, not just because it lets me know whether Joytoy's actually releasing anything of good quality, but because i genuinely enjoy seeing people play with their toys.
... pic not really related toward what i actually enjoy seeing, since i only saved it because its Joytoy's "gold" armor blending in with wooden doors.. but it's still cool to see someone's collection.

>>11525885
I dont think they will go bigger than the Knight unless those become their best selling figure. I do hope we get a Leman Russ tank at least, the recent Predator and Razorback releases give me hope

>>11526029
Christ, they're going to have to re-do Bobby g, he's a midge now.

>>11527037
Looks about right to me? The Primarchs aren't all the same size and whilst they're huge, they're not like Godzilla size (excluding obviously the daemon forms).
Wouldn't mind a HH version of the Lion and Guilliman though, the FW Primarchs are IMO much better than the plastic ones.

Keep helmetmaxxing

>>11527641
Why does he have grass growing out of his back?

>>11527888
Oh nice, that guy! That shield is great.

>>11527891
>>cool design without a helmeted head

tale as old as time

>>11527906

The mini has no helmet, its GW fault.

>>11527891
Wish his eyes were covered but still, nice looking figure.

>>11527888
a guy famous for his face doesn't get a helmetless head?

Good week, I wasn't expecting anything from Peter Turbo's announcement.

>>11528029
>We are not literally just stormcast eternals

>>11527891
Ugly ass face

Where the hell is Angron it's already halfway through the month.

>>11525492
I'm less interested because even with them putting out so much stuff, a lot of it feels too similar and they haven't gotten around to many of the things I'd actually be interested in getting a ton of(votann, more varied tyranids, sigmar lizardmen/seraphon). Space Marines are cool but at this point there's literally hundreds of them, I have like 3 little squads of different factions and don't ever need more.

>>11527888
Hopefully this means we are getting Loken too
>>11527891
I feel like his face should be obscured but he looks cool tho

>>11528029

I miss when they would put out a four-person squad in a different color every month

>>11528277
When it comes to Termies, JT simply does not miss. This guy is great. 3 hands, two rocket parts, stormbolter looks nice, great paint and sculpt.

>>11528283
Really love the head sculpt and the glossy metallic Red eyes.

>>11528291
Missile launcher has a little lever so that you can easily get the normal rocket out, which is smart.

>>11528309
My Alpha termie was also good, though I think the IL-termy is the best in a long while.

>>11528029
Since they're back to releasing random shit does this mean they're done with IW?
>no dreadnought
>no iron circle
>no praetor
>no Dantioh
Underwhelming as fuck release if so, especially given how much stuff their archnemesis IF got.

>>11528326
That blue is gorgeous.

>>11528283
do you happen to also own one of the early Terminators (UM, BL)? Could you take a picture with them next to each other?

>>11528029
Wonder how is backwards compatibility with the older firstborn Sanguinary Guard parts. Notably, jetpacks and the helmets.

>>11528073
Yes, yes, let the anger flow through you my son!

On a serious note: Angron must have been some sort of production nightmare; they keep moving release dates and releasing hype videos but nothing's happening. If anything, he might be the reason we'll never see a deamon primarch ever again.

>>11529246
They're already out in the wild, the guy who does those Tom and Jerry stopmotions already has one. I think it's just another supply issue because they just shipped out the Imperial Knight and Angron is comparatively huge so that must be slowing down the trucks, or something.

On the subject of WHERE XENOS JOYTOY, I was reading the short story War in the Museum the other day, and came to the conclusion that even if they do nothing else for the Necrons they should do a Trazyn the Infinite to allow people to recontextualise all their spessmehreen dollys. For those who don't know, Trazyn is a Necron lord with two major things going on for him: one, when you destroy his robot body (or even if he just feels like having his own clone) he can rebuild himself out of any of his subjects almost instantly; and two, he is obsessed with collecting artefacts and interesting people and putting them on display in stasis in his prviate museum planet. Similarly, you could put almost any of the figures on display, regardless of whether they "fit" and have a little Trazyn in there to admire it.

GW put the story up for download, if you want to read it. Things go a bit wrong when he is almost ready to put a Tyranid Hive Tyrant (and its accompanying Hive Fleet) on display.

>>11529364
ARGH WHY DID I NOT EXTEND THE DELIVERY WINDOW WHY GOD WHY

Got another AL termie to kitbash him with the praetor, now he's perfect

i wonder when we will have the real drip

>>11528326
Why is it blue? Isn't alpha legion's color supposed to be turquoise?

>>11529613
SAme reason they use brown instead of gold paint.
Joytoy doesn't understand GW's color guides.

>>11529613
Could be the lighting? Looks pretty close to the studio Alpha Legion schemes to me.

>>11529613
Its pretty close to the recent GW colour scheme, and depending on what Alpha Legion colour scheme you wanted to choose it could actually go even more blue. The original Index Astartes pre-heresy scheme was closer to violet even.

>>11529746
I've got Dynat and the sword praetor, and yeah the lighting changes how they look quite dramatically. They're a bit dull looking in shade, but they really pop in daylight.

>>11529748
>Its pretty close to the recent GW colour scheme
Yeah, because in GW's paint guides, blue is one of the many colors that is supposed to be used

Joytoy looks at GW's color guides, sees that there's 8 different paints, but only has the budget for 1, and chooses the basepaint, not realizing the paints for highlights are supposed to be the main color.

Like i said, it's the same shit Joytoy does with gold. The basepaint GW uses is brownish, because how their paint scheme works is that bottom layer of paint will be the shadowed area of the model. Colors will be more true to what it's supposed to be with the upper layers of paint, but Joytoy doesn't understand this, thus uses a brown paint instead of gold.
They're undoubtedly doing the same shit with the alpha toys.

Reminder: Do not interact with Subjectanon, he is a secondary who knows nothing about 40K, owns precisely zero miniatures and only posts here to troll because he hates people talking about lines he doesn't like.

>11529780
You wouldn't know this since you don't own a single JT figure let alone an AL one, but the color choice on lernaeans is deliberate because they're the only ones painted in that hue. Other alpha legion figures are actually closer to turquoise.

>>11529487
You can't convince me that anyone above the age of 10 thinks that NL's halloween paraphernalia looks cool and edgy.

>>11529795
>you're not allowed to state facts unless you paid money for Joytoy's newest, totally accurately painted figures
LOL, great marketing scheme.

But as much as i love the Alpha Legion, I really can't bring myself to pay money for horribly out of scale toys.

And any fan can tell that the colors are off, hence that one guy asking why it's blue instead of greenish. Only shills and nonfans make up excuses for Joytoy's fuck ups.

>>11529904
That's not a miniature.

>>11528630
I ended up selling my old UM Termies to buy the new ones. Only old-scale Termies I have left are Grey knights. They are about 30-35% smaller than modern Termies. Properly mogged.

>>11530271
These two are pretty close to the same height excluding the rocket launcher platform.

>>11529904
>As much as I love THING, I will not be buying the best toys that THING will ever get.
Profound poorfuck cope.

>>11530271
The size difference is close to the firstborn - primaris size difference so you can always say the grey knight is a veteran.

>>11530098
is that the JT imperial knight? how fucking heavy it is?

>>11530308
>consume my shitty product because it's the only one we'll ever make of the thing you like!
The Disney scheme, eh?
Eat shit.

Games Workshop finally started licensing out their WH40k to other companies, so if Joytoy continues doing a bad job, another company will take over the license and they'll eventually make Alpha Legion figures

>>11530732
They aren't shitty though, I haven't seen a single person who owns them say that they are.

Am I supposed to believe the bitter and jealous poorfuck over people who own the toys?

>They aren't shitty though
>t. non-owner of toys he's trying to praise, in a thread that has been dying for nearly a year, because no one is buying any of the new shit, because no one is excited about the new shit, because of the constant fuck ups Joytoy has made over time
You blab about poorfag, so what are you, if you can't even blindly buy shit just to support Joytoy's shit?

I don't see you posting your toys, yet I've constantly posted mine. And because I know first hand about Joytoy's fuck ups, anyone would feel bitter, especially when Joytoy hasn't fixed their shit and actually has gotten worse.
And that bitterness isn't exclusive to me, hence other people dropping the line over Joytoy's fuck ups.... you know, the people that actually used to produce OC that made this thread popular in the past.

>>11531712
Post models, secondary.

I've stopped buying as much Joytoy figures now because there's just so much and I have very little space, but the fact that the line is going strong, they're rapidly going through the Primarchs AND they're getting into vehicles means people are still buying them.

I received my Iron Warrior today, and it looks spectacular. I can't say the same about the quality of the material; it feels like it's made of less flexible plastic than my Ultramarine MkVI, but it also feels lighter. Despite being taller than the MkVI, its proportions make it look thinner or smaller.

>>11532865
Nice background
Where did you get that?

>>11530279

new terminators seem kinda boring in design compared to the older ones.

>>11532865
and that smurf is already bigger than all the figures I have...

This is one of the greatest licensed toylines of all time. Maybe the greatest in terms of sheer output over time. I still remember the excitement when the first four pack of Ultramarines was announced.

Blood Ravens figures when?

>>11533359
No one expected we were getting a baby carrier. Then we got the baby carrier and then we got an Imperial Knight. Then we're getting Angron as well. Now we're getting tanks.

Yeah you can gripe all you want about paint inaccuracies or scale creep, but they are putting toys in people's hands that we've been hardcore knoe-ing for all this time. They're also not doing it in a gay way where scalpers get away with most of the product (like Bandai does) - anyone can buy them at any time, and reissues are regular.

so what are your space maries fighting? Any other lines that work good with them? I think the He-man origins figures could work well since they are mutants.

so what are your space maries fighting? Any other lines that work good with them? I think the masters of the universe origins figures could work well since they are basicly mutants and the scale should be right too.

Primaris bros have no rights to complain, considering they got kick-ass figures from SM2 collab that mog everything else.

I don't know what the tariff situation is with USAbros right now, but the current back2school sale + coupon-fu feels like a steal for Angron.

>>11539073
Add in the current 15% cash-back from Rakutan and I got Angron and the IW sergeant for around $285 Cad.

is this a warhammer imitation? i don't know anything about either franchise tbf

Lmao, the exact fucking opposite has happened, but of course delusional subby inverts reality!

Bandai; has a hand full of recolors.
Joytoy; almost the entire space marine primaries catalogue. HUNDREDS of figures, most of which with unique sculpts.
