It's great to hear someone positive about new GW sculpts even if you do still sound like a grumpy old man 🤣. Play & display is a great idea! I like the introduction of the talking head on the montages. Hope you're feeling better soon!
Cool comparison. I hope you recover quickly and completely. With any luck my FLGS will have a copy of Cadia Stands for me to pick up later today. The new Cadian sculpts remind me of GI Joe figures. The older sculpts have a more Starship Troopers vibe. The new troopers will fit into my 501st Amalgamated Regiment just fine. "I'm doing my part!"
Ah but Starship troopers is why I got the first cadians 😅but that’s definitely a cool direction to take the cadians in with the 501st I take it you have a few Valkyries cutting about your force?
As somebody who just got into the hobby October 2022 with the old command squad I really do wish I was able to get more of the classic cadians as I chose them specifically for the fact they were more customizable than any other army with just what the box included, but all I managed to get was the command squad, start collecting box, heavy weapons team, and two leman russes unless you count the scions. The new cadians being monopose made me struggle to get them in poses I liked, even when I did there was just something about the classic ones that looked so much better and I believe it's due to the customized nature of them, how everything down to how far the waist was twisted was up to me. Now with the price increase bringing an infantry squad to $50, im not so sure if I'm gonna be able to simply get more in the first place! The guard community has been asking for new sculpts for ages, but I don't think this is what any of us meant. I love how detailed they are, but given the choice between the two I'm just gonna be asking the local gw store manager if they've got any classic cadians in stock. Though I will bring up some positives: I love the inclusion of female head options for the cadians in the new kits, though it appears you have to get an upgrade sprue for a female medic I also love how in the upgrade sprue there's more wounded Cadian bits
Thank you for your comment ☺️, aww man I wish you had more time to collect the classic boxes. I’ve still seen some lurking in independent stores so that could be an option for you. I’m gonna be looking into ways of kitbashing and reposing the new sculpes this year and I’m sure I can bring that video forward a few months 👍. And the only advice I can give again for the price is check out your local independent store as they do reduce the price abit. Happy hunting, Cadia STANDS! 😉
Magnetizing worked great. Hope you feel better soon. Also Penal legion, conscripts and veteran guardsmen are no longer in the codex. It's all just infantry squads which makes things easier.
Hey luckily I was next to my computer working on the next build so I can tell you 😅 it’s ‘the dawning - by Anna Dager’ all my music comes from epidemic sounds but hopefully you can find it elsewhere unless you have a subscription ☺️ hope this helps
Hey brother, Henry Cavill just came out saying he is making a 40k show(I'm sure you know by now). Would love to hear your thoughts about it in a video when you are feeling better. I believe this is great news for us. May the god emperor shine his light apon you, and heal this nurgles rot.
Haha thanks mucker 👍 luckily I just sound worse then I am now but my voice is shot to sheds! 😬 and oh yeah I saw 😂 I’m very keen to see where it leads, hopefully some writers will get on board and a studio then we can really get hyped 😁👍
«Oooh let me show you a relic!» That was funny 😂
🤪🤣
The instructions might make it seem that its very monopose, but apart from having to build the bodies in a certain way, you can add any arms to them.
That’s good to know

@@RIGMiniatures Still waiting for air support. May be able to acquire a couple of Hydras though.
Going for the, if I can’t have a flyer you can’t have a flyer approach? 😅
Jolly good on the paint job!
Thank you ☺️
Get well soon Rig. I got covid aswell, for the second time and it sucks.
Thanks buddy, oh yeah it definitely sucks 🤣👍
I'm gonna miss the old models but I do love the new ones
Exactly, those loveable little scamps are growing up… finally 😅

The new sculpts are like ...a CM taller? Not too bad. Marines are still big AF
Not quite that much taller but getting close to it, and yeah the marines are still big lads

Ah! Ok I thought I saw conscripts but was on my way to look at the field ordnance stuff 😅
What's the name of the piece of music at the start of the video?
Hey luckily I was next to my computer working on the next build so I can tell you 😅 it’s ‘the dawning - by Anna Dager’ all my music comes from epidemic sounds but hopefully you can find it elsewhere unless you have a subscription ☺️ hope this helps
@RIG Miniatures thank you so much, finding a piece of music not previously known is so difficult to find when it has no lyrics. Thank you
Oh I understand that feeling! It can definitely be frustrating. 😂
Feel better RIG
Thanks mate ☺️👍
