Terminators then and now

While cleaning up my bits, and looking for bits to use, I found my original Terminator army. Didn’t find what I remember building but found quite a few of them!

Again with my normal “over plan”, the loyal Emperor’s Children had Inquisition Pauldrens showing they were loyal as well as being magnetized!

So they were:

Magnitized, had Death Watch shoulder pads, Mk3 helmets (to make them look pre-heresy), and many of the pieces were metal! The failure of my design and plan!.

While talking to my sons, they remembered helping me drill these and add magnets to them!

What was crazy to me was I remember them being larger!

So part of starting from scratch was to get the new Primaris sized terminators, and I was going with the 2023 Terminator parts to keep them posable. So when I put them side by side, I was surprised.

All in all, glad I am starting again. I miss the minis, but going back and getting parts for them would have been a nightmare!

Echild or Echild07 or Refuse has been playing Slaanesh, Emperor's Children and Imperial Fists since the 80s! Loved the imagery and dichotomy in the "lost and the damned" books and love the pride and pain aspects of Imperial Fists and Emperor's Children.
