The rail thing on the back of the Leman Russ is called a "tail" and it's purpose is to help the tank cross a trench. WW1 tanks like the Renault FT17 and the Mark IV have them as well.
Says something about the scale of trench works in the war is a tank the size of a Russ or Malcedor needs trench rails.
I’m pretty sure the Mk. IV never had one.
@@Mr_Bunk that is correct, the trench tail is only found on the Renault FT17
I've only heard them called "Trench Rails." I'm curious to where tails comes from, it'd still make sense.
@@klayfieI'm fine with calling any sort of appendage to the rear of a tank a 'tail', be it trench rails, the odd steering assist the Mk.1 had, or even the tank from a Churchill Crocodile (although that's clearly a trailer so... eh).
I like seeing that you both have one hand at each side of the box in the beginning. It allowed me to imagine that you fused together into some sort bilateral being, Half-Snipe, Half-Wib...
All Snib... :3
😄😄😄😄👍
Wipe?
All hail Wipe!
Kinda partial to 'Swipe & Nib' m'self...
You mean, some sort of ... hybWib?
My wife loves the element games sweets, she knows where they come from (she also war games but is a bit anti-clutter). It’s a great way to inform her that I have made further Warhammer purchases, hand her the sweets and leave the room before she joins the dots.
2:04 - See, this sort of attention to detail is precisely why I don't watch anyone else do Warhammer unboxing videos ... gotta leave it to the pros!
Believe it or not you're the first unboxing I've seen of this stuff and the first time I've actually looked at any of it.
The inch whip and the templates really are the ones I grew up with back when 3rd edition was released? xD That is hilarious, but you can't improve on perfection!
Every month I get something from Element there's a new sticker, and you either get branded sweets or a branded pen. I do appreciate it.
Thankyou Snipe for being right there at 8:28 anticipating my question! And yes Wib, those 'tanky bits' at 9:06 ish are indeed trench rails.
The Age of Darkness box also came with whippy sticks. And the full scale Heresy assault squads are *still* not out until tomorrow, for the record.
Bright red plastic whippy sticks always make me feel nostalgic.
How did you not spot the date on the pointy sticks as well? Felt very authentic. So happy you managed to get a box, been a challenge getting it
Oh good! Another episode of Sprue Stroking with Snipe and Wib!
Such a beautiful package, i meant it all, from the product to the reviewers 😊
Good unboxing, the scale comparisons with older models and photos of assembled and painted ones are appreciated! Cheers.
Warbeans, for the warbean god!
Look at the tiny boys!
OMG I want this box so much, also I waited for you two to get it to watch an unboxing!
16:17 I'll admit I'm seeing more like if they were painted with heinz cream of tomato soup than ketchup, but yeah i do like the more rouge trader esque painjobs, which unless im mistaken, are sort of canon (for example if you look at ultramarines in 30k vs 40k they seem to have a different shade of blue which i've taken to interpret as being one of those things representing the passage of time, like how in the gc era, the imperium feels more renaissance compared to 40k's gothic)
The fucking wibbly sticks! I never thought I'd see the day!
In all honesty, I haven't actually watched an unboxing of this yet, so you get to be my first.
In other news, My paintpot holder is covered in Element stickers!
This is the only unboxing I have seen of this. 😊
Ah yes. Rocket Pod Stroking ASMR.
Man, y'all seem so excited and happy to have it. It's a nice change from all the negativity around the release. I too am excited and have been enjoying the models and game.
1998 just called, it wants it's blast radius templates back.
Yeah the best thing is absolutely the whippy sticks and templates. Amazing.
It's just a Box of Little Guys!
Life can be tough but this wholesome channel really cheers me up. ❤❤
PROTIP: get a cheap flat bedsheet to put on the floor under the chair/table you build your models on to prevent losing pieces that go flying when clipped from the sprue.
"These feet are alot more mechanical while geekos feet are more fleshy".. okey? XD good observation xD
EPIC IS BACK?!?!
Somehow this is the first unboxing of LI that youtube showed me. This is making me want it, but I so need to wait until later. Maybe I can get my original Epic Squats finished in the meantime...
Your light took "In the Grim Darkness..." literally.
Big box of smoll dudes!
Congrats guys
Yey! You two! That’s all. ❤️
You pretty much have to buy another box of marine Infantry to have any sort of playable army.
Presumably Malchador only subjects people to a light siege, y’kniw, so you can send out fir refs and don’t have to Implement the Borogravian leg exchange rota.
I still have my Eldar Phantom, Warlock and Revenant Titans
Tuned in for your joy more than anything else… like some sort of emotional vampire
Great vid again,and hope you both keeping well,great detail on sprue,only prob is i have all the armies in previous scale so these dont fit in with them and limited to what will be released so unfortunately not for me.
You guys are great!
I love Element Games. Fast delivery and they dumped a metric ton of sweets into my order that was delayed to apologise haha.
Also, WHIPPY STICKS
Still not available in Australia/New Zealand, but this video is tempting me. I'm loathe to have to buy yet more terrain for a new scale, though...
Big Box. Small Boys... Cardboard Fish?
Content for the Content God!!!!
Ive made a deliberate point of ignoring this game until this week lol...... I want is a lot. But just cant justify it until some of the shame is cleared of the desk. This is the first unbox vid ive seen. And once seen it cant be unseen........SOLD!!
the older i get the less appealing painting tiny scale infantry becomes, that being said im happy for you as i imagine you will get joy out of them.
Are any of the titans dreadnaught sized so i can make my opponents perplexed that im using them for the wrong game?
The warhound is slighter than the old boxnaught, but about as tall.
Yeah but at least contrast paints are a thing now. I tried painting some marines during the #pic 40,000 era and just gave up.
I getcha, although the older I've got the more I enjoy smaller scales. A few chaps is cool, but slapping down a full division in BT or a chunk of a Roman Legion on a table feels good
RIP that one little guy who came off the sprue - did you manage to find him in the end?
I need a medic bag.
You think those parts are small? Try putting chapter decals on the turret of Predator...😅
Ok it's been 16 hours, are they all assembled yet?
I am very interested in seeing any painted minis
Element Games hand out such great stickers; and their sweeties are a cool too.
Wib and Snipe's banter actually makes an unboxing video fun to watch. "Here's a bunch of other shit." 😄
The Element Games candy is really tasty. I should really order more things from them...
It's unfortunate that they'll never make any Xenos or current 40k releases for this game system, it completely killed any interest I would have for it. Amazing miniminiatures, though!
Geckos _are_ cute.
Love me some smol bois.
Looks amazing. But not for the price GW is asking. $400 AUD is just disgusting.
This is really good, almost good enough to make me want to buy it, but it's Heresy only and that's sort of a Deal breaker.
I want epic scale Orkz and Tyranids!!!
Give it time. The fact that the box is labeled ‘epic scale’ strongly implies GW is going to keep making kits for it over the next few years
element games sometimes wins my vote from who I buy from for the sweet alone
the pens where nice I Miss them :(
I heavily disagree with both the scale and the amount of parts.
Scale is: 8mm tall regular humans, 9.8mm tall astartes. In comparison, Vanguard's models in power armour are 8mm tall (as they should be), and are compatible with regular humans you can have from other 6mm ranges. Hell, Imperialis is incompatible even with its own previous range. Titanicus buildings have 6mm tall doors.
And as someone who never enjoyed assembling GW's stuff, I would much rather go for a tank that has just "hull" and "turret", and that's it. Tank that also fits at least on a 40mm base.
Fortunately for my bank account I have managed to resist the call of Adeptus Titanicus and Legions Imperialis.
I would not be able to say that had GW remembered that both the Eldar and Orks were around during the Heresy times and did fight against Imperium forces with everything from infantry all the way up to titans of their own. Especially as I could much more easily afford a large Eldar force these days then I could back in the 90's.
My advice: Do *not* go and get the Mini of the month Rhino. Painting that might change your mind... It did mine 😅
@@PavelThorsonos If I wanted to paint a tiny rhino, I still have a bunch of old epic plastic ones from 30 years ago that I could paint anytime I want to.
well yes seen whay to menny vid on this and NOPE not doing it did like fist time and got get rid of the stuff i have and do not like painting that smaill YACK ok that bit out my heed yes snip and whip have a GREAT Xmass and tune in may be to what do with em
Regular 40k minis are already too small for me and my horrible motor skills, let alone ones a fraction of that. Look cool, but not for me. Great unboxing though!
are you not a little late with your unboxing video??
why must you taunt me so
If you're complaining about 8mm not being "epic" don't look at Warlord Games as their "epic" is 12.5mm
"Passing Birds are big fans of Warhammer"
That got an out loud chuckle from this trans bird.
Id love this game if it werent the horrible infantry sculpts. I know the filled voids are unavoidable but its a big turn off for me unfortunately
There's a guy that's done a video on a fairly simple fix for that.
Also, remember it's only some of the infantry affected. Plus, the things are so tiny you'd probably never ever notice when you've got your army on a table.
YES
