Painting AND Unboxing a Retro Chaos Warrior for Warhammer the Old World | Duncan Rhodes

- This kit from 1997 was ground breaking upon its release and was the first time you could get a true regiment kit on plastic with different options. Although the Rogue Trader kit was out first (RTB01) this kit broke new ground and paved the way for plastic kits we know and love today. In this video we open a sealed box and show you what's inside plus we paint one as they did back in the day.

Ahhh 1997! What a great year for miniature war-gaming. Can you remember your first miniature and where you got it? Let us know below!
We hope you enjoyed this one as much as we enjoyed both unboxing and painting this classic miniature. If you enjoyed the video, please feel free to leave a Like and Subscribe to the channel. Also, feel free to leave a comment below to help appease the nefarious You Tube Algorithm God!
Age of Sigmar, near the end of 1st edition. A start collecting Seraphon. With Kroq Gar and Grymloq, ooh no sorry, a sunblood on carnosaur and 8 knights and 12 warriors. Lovely box :) at the time cheaper than the carnosaur alone lol
Ral-pather , Cave troll , 1985 ,
🐺 Loupis Canis .
The starter box with Black Templar and Dark Eldar were my first miniatures. I loved those models.
1997 from a model train shop I got my first white dwarf and a chaos warband (I can’t remember the name of the box) that came with some beastmen, some ratmen and a single chaos warrior (or lord, not sure what they called it, I was only in grade 4 after all haha)
40k, early 2023, old termagaunts, they were a pain to build
Hi Duncan. I’m going all misty eyed. I got into the hobby in 1989, my first white dwarf being issue 122. I lusted after the Terminator Deathwing Captain miniature and finally after 34 years I finally got him and painted him in the colour scheme from all those years ago. This is a fantastic channel and one that evokes so many happy memories. Thank you!
Me too, I recently found some unpainted minis from the period and now painting them, the Chaos Marine renegades with heavy weapons. Mad color schemes originally.
You really are a master in beginner friendly instructions. Love how you explain the steps, why these are important and give very easy instructions on how to apply them. In the meanwhile showing that the end result is so much more than the sum of its parts and that you really dont have to be an artistic talent to make a model look good.
I remember this kit being great not just for building on their own but combining with other kits like Chaos Marines, too. Such a shame that they started moving away from kits like this somewhat once the next edition rolled around and they went back to monopose again 😭
Yup, half the fun was posing and adding character to each mini
That's not accurate at all, they came out with all their best ever fully posable plastic kits in the next 5 years after that original plastic Chaos Warriors kit and never really moved back to monopose with Fantasy as it ended before they did that with modern kits in AOS and 40k.
Such a nostalgia hit from this vid. I loved my old Chaos Army from back in the day. I loved the interchangeability of the regiments too. I had a Nurgle Chaos Warrior Regiment made up with bits from the Zombie Regiment.
That sounds very cool indeed!
The Old World has truly been the first time I've had such powerful nostalgia. Must be because GW have been doing a great job of hyping it up, not cos I'm getting old
Agreed. Rog and I are getting really excited about it for sure! Like many others out there who both love and miss the Old World.
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA Duncan! Are you gonna do any of the models from the Old World sets that just released?
I have a regiment of these guys. Love them to death. Warrios of chaos was my first ever exposure to warhammer back in 97 or 98
i remember picking this kit up as my first ever Warhammer kit. I got it home and built them and remember thinking how detailed and well made the models were. this is a real nostalgic feeling :). Amazing video!
Thanks
Crazy to see these sprues. It's hard to imagine GW making a kit where all of the pieces fit together perfectly fine instead of accidentally getting the slightly different looking leg or arm and now nothing fits and it's all falling apart.
All the work and confusion from misprints and part IDs to make what is essentially just over designed monopose dudes.
We started the hobby the same year! Good times
Your skill and talent sicken me, Duncan. I love it 🤘
There something special when old kit get unboxed, as it was meant to be built, painted, and played with
Agree 100%
7 hells I feel old. I was working at GW when this came out. I remember putting this on the shelves in the shop
Blooming algorithm i missed this one!! But if there redoing these bad boys for the old world im defo getting into it!!
They look fantastic 😮😊
Duncan is on a nostalgia trip at the moment.
Man, this takes me back. I ended up using the torsos and legs for my LatD for the Eye of Terror campaign. Awesome models for the time.
My first ever box was a box with chaos warriors with metal halberd. So this really bring som memories back.
Thank you , DRPA .
🐺Loupis Canis .
Love it!!! I have this very box set in the cupboard upstairs. I painted in a khorne colour scheme and I paired it with the chaos chariot back in the day, some beast men and some dogs of war. Good times!
Nice
love the oldschool minis
These were my first very goofy Chaos warriors. That was the first year I got into the hobby too!
Very cool
OMG, it was October 11th of that very year, I started collecting and playing Warhammer & 40K
Hi Duncan, I am super new to miniature painting, and I was lucky to get a full set of your paints with your great display stand. I see that there are washes but also ones called glaze, which look similar. What is the difference between the washes and the glazes. Many thanks, Holly
Oh, nostalgic kick!
I know right 😀
The warrior looks like he is doing that shoulder thing when you're really cold
The box that got me in to Warhammer ❤🔥
Nice 👍
Those Warriors will be much easier to rank on the new 30mm bases. Looking forward to doing a WoC army for TOW using those 90s models! :D
The cellophane removal was almost sensual, Two Thin Cuts perhaps? 😂
I wish that they would bring the kit back for nostalgic stake.
Good old times when GW miniatures were so modular by default. I recently put my WH Fantasy Chaos army on Ebay and I was shocked seeing how the bets exploded.
I have that exact set!
I'm a simple person: I like all Warhammer miniatures without exception. Another question however: aesthetically I don’t like square bases, since the angles distract too much attention from the model itself.
It’s good that there is Age of Sigmar, simply because there is an alternative to which bases to use!
I just cracked open an old box of 16 Eldar Guardians that's on the small sprues. I can't recall when I bought it but the sticker said $22. Crazy part is they really don't look that different than the current Guardians...
Sweet!
Absolutely fantastic video! :D
Thank you very much!
It must be nice to paint someplace with humidity. My dry palette dries out ridiculously quickly.
Ive been watching for awhile now. I just bought my first miniatures and put them together. But havent started painting. I wanted to get a wet pallette, what wet pallet does Duncan use?
My first miniatures were from HeroQuest (the old version).
A true classic!
I am a grumpy RogueTrader old man, we called these Hunchies and I was NOT impressed! That era of WFB - so many bizarre sculpts in all the ranges.
Hunchies is a good name to be fair 😂
Шикарно !!!
Duncan? CHECK!
Retro Model? CHECK!
Warhammer Fantasy Battles? CHAAACK!
meesa happy
Us too! 😁

Instead of going back and glazing flat surfaces of the armor/shield, why not just use an oil wash and wipe away the wash on flat surfaces? (answering my own question, i guess because the scope of these painting videos is meant to be, just a brush and some paints. whereas the oil wash involves a few other things)
Damn, plastic minis as old as me
i actually had this set :)....and now i dont :(
Awesome paint job! But I have to say, coming into the hobby without any nostalgia, these models do not compare well with AoS. There have been significant improvements in all areas (e.g., the seemingly 90 degree angle neck) since then. Even though Warhammer Fantasy is my favorite setting, the recycling of old models turns me away from it. Especially as someone that is mainly into the painting aspect of the hobby, the newer models both in AoS and 40K are more appealing to me.
I wasn’t even born yet 😅 not for 2 more years
What's ten pounds in real money
1:07 It wasn't Bretonnia? Heresy! Blasphemy! General shunning of socially accepted beliefs!
Totally understandable, Warriors of chaos are the best bad guys you could ask for.
These minis where terrible even back then. Absolutely horrible
Ah yes those where the good days, 1997 would of been my 2nd games day, spent the night at my local warhammer store, playing games all night then getting on the coach at 5am for the trip down to Birmingham.
I actually used these chaos warriors for parts for my khorne bezerkers. I also miss the free choice you had on how to build your model, any part would fit any other part in the kit. Nowadays the way the sets are done you can't really mix and match body parts now. I also really really really miss those prices. Where full army sets would cost you £45. Now that's just a box of 5 terminators!
I just love the naive charm of these older GW sculpts. Beautiful.
Currently painting up a unit of these bad boys! Although I'm making them Nurgle, but the principles the same.
Oh dear... I remember those, they were so cool back then, I still have some of them completely unbuilt, still on the sprue! The most amazing thing was usually they would come with a mutation sprue, to make like possessed or give more variety to the regiment.
The halberdier version of this regiment was brilliant too, metal halberds really looked the part
Fantastic Duncan thanks for sharing with us 👍 this takes me back. I started in 86 all those years ago with a handful of miniatures. My first full regiment was Bugmans Dwarf Rangers, beautiful Regiment of Renown. Some are still kicking around in my army now lol
They don't make kits this fun anymore. I miss them.
I imagine 1997 Duncan would've never imagined painting his miniature with his very own paints 😁
I love the old hunchback warriors!=D
While the updated models are waaaay superior, these guys have such a charme! They really capture the whimsical and cartoonish time from 5th edition, before the setting got way darker and the miniatures got a bit.. well.. better(?).
I stopped playing during 6th edition, but I'm currently fixing up my old Warriors of Chaos army and I was buffled by the huge amount I have of those Warriors! 108 in good condition and around 6 with missing parts!
I totally forgot that I had so many and its more than I could ever use in a battle, but damn, its a sight to behold!
Around 40 of those warriors and 10 knights aren't painted yet, so I was thinking about a different sheme, maybe I will give the copper armor a chance!
I LOVE retro stuff. Finding something like that is quite difficult and expensive. It makes you put your money where your mouth is and show how much you are into the hobby of miniatures and miniature painting. But glad you did this one. Cheers for retro miniatures!
Our pleasure 😀
Holy crap I love the boxes the old stuff came in. I still have a couple of them.
Rhooo... 😊 really, after more 30 years in hobby, i love old school minis and paint style !
Us too!
I, too, went Chaos for my 1st Oldhammer army back in the early 90s. Chapeau.
My paint job wouldn't stand up to scrutiny these days. Think the 12-year-old me painted everything with a 2"brush straight from pot😂. Purple and black. Nice to see.how good they could have looked- only had to wait 30 odd yrs!!
I remember saving up money from my summer vacations in 1997 or 98 and buying a regiment of chaos warriors with halberds. The same kit just with metal arms for the halberds. Atrociously painted of course but I still have them! Great job Duncan !
Imo. GW should go back to the old boxes to REALLY bring old folk back, bring newbies in, and feed the imagination.
Ideally I'd like to see the Imperator Titan return, along with Epic 40K, (Titan Legions in particular and it's old supplements) as MtO games, with older models scaled up to match the current AT and Legions Imperialis scale to fit in with the newer ones.
That Chaos Warriors regiment is a really cool boxed set, I wish I had picked that up back in the day, but no one played Warhammer at my games store and I was heavily into playing Battletech. Those minis look like a big bucket of fun to paint up.
1:57 do you hear this voices the screams those are from the warhammer sealed collectors when duncan opend the plastic......
😈😈😈
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA 😁
I got into warhammer fantasy around 2002 and it was right as these models were being phased out. They were one of the first regiment boxes I bought (with the 6th edition box art) and the newer warriors just dont compare, imo. Excellent paint job and it makes me want to pull mine out of the pile of shame. Thank you!
Also, do you plan to paint liveries seen in Warhammer games?
I'm especially hoping you do. As I want to learn to paint House Drakkus and Freeblades seen in the mobile game, Warhammer 40,000: Freeblade.
The greatest regimental box ever made. Chaos Warriors reached their peak here
Nice I still have mine too! I remember lining up all the units was a pain, had to paint the order on each base so they fit side by side.
It sure was right! But fun too! I remember painting a number under each base to remember their position!
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA Thank you for all the great video content over the years, always a pleasure to watch and learn from you, excited for all your videos in 2024! Happy New Year!
If I want to paint something made in 1997 I'll just paint my nails
Touche
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA my first model was a rhino when I was about 4 though, so I probably started with models older than me 😂
I nabbed a few of these guys while back second hand
very enjoyable little models
Nicely painted!! You who are an expert in painting, can you show how to paint wolf fur? =) Have you seen the "1993 Warhammer Fantasy Goblin Wolf Riders box? I always wondered how they were able to paint the fur so awesomely well with different combinations with, yellow, brown, gry, dark?
the haunting screams of a thousand nerds as the knife pieced the blister pack.
This was my first army two, although I allied with Nurgle demons and beastmen too. Never managed that quality of paint job, though! But my very first models are from around 1993, and were three metal Imperial knights for Epic 40K in a blister, which I wanted for a game I was creating and because they were just grand and characterful little models.
In 1997 I started with Warhammer Fantasy and played the Empire. My first models were a regiment of hellebardiers (monopose) from a comic shop.
After one year I switched to Chaos, because Chaos didn't need so many miniatures because their units had a high point value. And I didn't need to spend so much money after those plastic boxes (Warriors, like shown in the video, and Knights) came out. For the Empire I had to rely mainly on metal miniatures (e.g. three Bihanders in one blister; knights came in one per blister) which was not cheap at all.
the first Warhammer thing I ever bought! Didn't really understand what they were for, just thought they were cool looking. Sadly I do not believe I still have them anywhere....but maybe.
This was the first Warhammer boxed set I bought - sorry to be a 'trainspotter' Dunc but the one you have probably dates from after 1997 as the original ones had black internal boxes, I think with the same lizardman/Bretonian facing off from the front of the 5th Edition boxed set.
I think it was probably the first plastic army regiment boxed set GW released - they also released a set with metal halberd arms. I pre-ordered the halberdiers, and distinctly remember being phoned by the Mail Order Trolls -at home- to tell me that their release had been delayed for some reason. True story.
27 years later from now, will we look at 2024 GW miniatures in the same way we look at a miniature from 1997 now?
>and duncan will be applying 2 thin coats even then
What do you call it when you’re milking a cow, and the milk goes everywhere but in the bucket?
Udder chaos.
Did you hear about the aquatic sea mammals that escaped from the zoo?
It was otter chaos.
This is actually pretty funny to me because the main reason I looked up your channel was for your glowing weapons video in order to spruce up this exact unit that I found in an unmarked box in my closet. I distinctly remember how this particular box set was game changing at the time and I had to buy it.
This regiment was my first painting attempt. I was in my late 40's and was crap😂 Now 62 and slightly better than crap, but not much 🤔😂
Funny thing this box was my first fantasy regiment box, didn't play fantasy exactly. back in second edition there was a chaos daemon world list that was playing a mostly fantasy army with demons in 40k
What a sensational find. And you know what else is sensational, Duncan? Your complexion. I think I speak for all us men when I say I'd like to see you make a video on your skincare regime.
Watching the washes on the horns getting smoothed with a brush full of water… is this What Mike Mcvey was trying to explain when he described ‘two brush blending’?
Hey, could you please tell me what static grass do you use? Ive been looking for such a blend for a while now but cant find a perfect match...
Had a lovely nurgle c w army that sold for a song. This boxset formed its foundation. The memories...
Had a lovely nurgle c w army that sold for a song. This boxset formed its foundation. The memories...
Those were the worst chaos warriors ever made , I remember them well 😂
A tenner for a full regiment of infantry, what a time to be alive and collect warhammer !
damn.. that even includes a pewter model and movement tray.. GW is really screwing people over now.
Is it weird I'm sitting here hoping he sniffs the box when he opens it then he does! Duncan always delivers
I still have 20 of those guys that I use for AoS. They were an absolute pain to rank up on square bases. I'm a fan of them tho.
All these comments and why is nobody discussing the price?! Like, holy shit!?
I got this box as a kid from a GW shop. It was missing the 2 metal parts inside even tho it was factory new. Im still mad.
Wait. They used to sell these for 10 bucks a kit?
God damn what do they make them out of now, gold?
Just started work on a box of these. I’m thinking Nurglish.
is it considered disrespectful to substitute the older models with "new" ones but with square bases?
Damn… Duncan’s been into the hobby two years longer than I’ve been alive…
Aaahh 1997 Air - my favorite ❤
