    I'm glad you left the bolter as is. In my imagination, it's hanging by a sling and the space marine has temporarily slung his weapon to reach for a krak grenade.

    Seeing a Space Marine in a jar as the thumbnail made me realise that the internet has ruined, corrupted and destroyed me, permanently.
    Great video!

      I’m still pretty mad that he died. Tony Todd and Lance Reddick too; both died way too soon. But Tony was almost 70 so he was fairly close to the average expiration date of an American male, but I sure as crap don’t have to be happy about it! Lance was a Baltimore man so he belonged to we Marylanders! He was our guy, dang it! At least we still have the great John Astin, another awesome actor born in Baltimore and who did teach acting classes at Johns Hopkins University until he retired in 2021. Unfortunately John is 94 years old so it’s not like we’re gonna get to keep him around for another decade or two, but we can hope and pray that he stays with us a bit longer! But I digress. We miss you, Meatloaf, Tony Todd, and Lance Reddick. May you all rest in peace and may you never be forgotten!

    Space Marines are cool. I would love to build some Templars at some point since they're the most "medieval" like of them all.
    But I have a softer spot for Guardsmen. Being simple humans in a war of giants and winning is more satisfying in my view.
    Great paintjob on this fella!

    Nice little rescue, the poor fellow needed some love, and his classic scheme is most fitting. He's a proper space marine, even though he's not too sure which end of his bolter to point at the enemies of the Emperor.

    I’m a simple man - I see a new eBay Miniatures Rescue video and I click play! Casey, c’mon - Space Marines are ALWAYS awesome! It does kinda get under my skin that the AoS sculps are leagues above the 40K ones; I guess that’s because they’re trying to get more people to play AoS? Every time I put together an awesome AoS mini (just finished putting our favorite Ratboi Vizzik Skour together a little bit ago) I can’t help but to think how much I wish they would make the 40K and HH minis as awesome as the AoS ones. I’m pretty sure that 40K is their best seller and their main money maker, so why are so many 40K sculps boring when compared to the AoS ones? Shoot, even the lowly Clanrats that came in the Skaventide box are far more detailed than many 40K and HH minis are!
    As always my friend I love your videos and I’m always happy to see a new one pop up!

    This looks like a plastic marine from the Warriors of the Imperium box. They were slightly more poseable than the marines from the 2nd edition Starter box. The arms are set up for boltgun in left hand and dagger in the right. The chest and head were a separate piece from the legs allowing for some posing options. Nice results.

    I painted my first mini in the late 80s and I've still never painted a space marine but I've watched a lot of them get painted on TH-cam 😂. I got into the hobby through D&D and when I restarted about 5 years ago I added in 3d printing. GW eventually managed to snag my wallet, but through AoS, not 40k.

    I'll be the first to admit, I got into Warhammer because of Space Marine 1 & 2. I've started collecting a bunch of JoyToy figures and I think the Space Marines are badass! I grew up a fan of Halo and Star Wars so I'm a sucker for colorful super soldiers.

    • @eBayMiniatureRescues

The best model in all of Warhammer 40K you then remember that model you have... The Riptide. A massacre. You have to save him. You decide the next video has to be about saving the Riptide.

  • @Mara999
    @Mara999 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Are Space Marines cool? I was familiar with Fallout and Starcraft many years prior to encountering 40K, so my feelings for Space Marines is affected mostly by their resemblance to Terran Marines and the Brotherhood of Steel. They also remind me a lot of the Scopedogs in VOTOMS. Overall, I like the models themselves much more than the lore behind them in 40K. So as a model I quite like this guy you rescued, in all his classic galore.

    • @eBayMiniatureRescues
      @eBayMiniatureRescues  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Starcraft was big for me, I only ever played Terran back in the day. I've heard, and I have no idea if its true, but Starcraft was supposed to be a licensed 40k game and ended up not working out somehow, so it's very similar to Space Marines, Eldar, and Tyranids. That might be just a rumor, but it's pretty close, and those space marines were always so cool to me.

    could have chopped the hands off and flipped the bolter direction. if the bolter got wrecked surely you've got some left over somewhere. same for hands... i'd probably just make some out of green-stuff or cut them out of some spare sprue and carve them then glue them on, cos analysing them space marine hands, they're literally a box, with 6 little grooves impressed onto it, plus the thumb. but yeh if the bolter, being taken off the chest, damaged the chest, you could probably just use the new weapon to cover that damage.
