I'm reading Ciaphas Cain: Hero of the Imperium rn and Ambulls make an appearance there. I was so disappointed to learn that its models are all discontinued.
Look for Umberhulk Models. They come from D&D but they are very similar creatures.
I agree it is really is a crime that isn’t a sweet new model for the Ambull - that said one of my favourite conversions I’ve done to date was using an “Ambot” from Necromunda and sculpting it back into an Ambull
There are many Umber Hulk models that would work, even more if your into 3D printing. They are basically the same creature
We really badly need a Cain model to boot. And some new Valhallans.
The plastic one will go back into production at some point I'm sure. Blackstone Fortress was an unfortunate victim of them needing cut back which products are in production during the pandemic.
it's funny that the old rogue trader one is actually cheaper than the blackstone fortress one because gw stopped doing the blackstone fortress one around 2020. if i'd known gw weren't going to keep it in stock i would have picked one up when it was available
in my local store in Germany are 2 boxes.. but in English sadly for me
Why the hell did GW do that?! They do that with every figure I really want from them!
@@Onkel_Ranger would you consider shipping it? I’m looking for one. Or maybe just the name of the store, if they have a website
@@maxbrandt6 because they have a limited number of machines which make the plastic models and they have to decide which moulds to load up on those machines as they run 24/7.
They'll put it back into production eventually. Blackstone Fortress is coming back into print now. Remember, they make the models themselves, but all the cardboard chits, books, and boxes, etc are still printed in china. So, they can make the models, but without all the extras, they can't sell their intended boxed product.
I think I recall that Ambots are controlled by a lobotomised ambull brain also! Which explains their mechanics in game somewhat. Basically an ambull dreadnought
Nah... I guess it would be more servitor-like... While the imperium propaply doesn't give a flip about worker's safety they wouldn't want their mashines to be to independent and an independent ambull, bereft of their flesh and given a mechanical body, might do some unwanted tunneling, some unwanted nibbling on crews or some unwanted escaping...
@@annasstorybox7906 definitely more akin to a servitor in terms of free will, I guess I was going for how it's an even more armoured up ambull with mining drills and I think melta cutters as well?
Yup, just going to say that!
It's kind of creepy to know that the AdMech can servitor-ize literally anything.
Yes. There's a ban on even the most simplistic AI in the imperium. Servitors/cyborgs are the way around this. Automated defenses will always have a servitor linked into them as well.
Glad you were given an AMBULL opportunity to pain such a nice mini 😎
Haha, putting that thing on a gold chain and wearing it would be the coolest nerd thing to do!
You’ve definitely drunk the Ambull blue milk.
Bull milk? Must have been salty.
Excellent work on both models, friggin' awesome that you found an original Ambull mini from 1988! Those are as rare as a hen's tooth!
Amazing paint job man! And it goes perfectly with the model. I always love appreciating the aesthetic of old 40K figures, it’s something utterly unique.
Such a great video as always Jay, two fantastic minis and wonderful painting
NECRONS!
It may just be me but as a newcomer to Warhammer your videos are perfect. There a little bit of lore and some great painting tips
Was one of those that got excited as soon as I heard the actual code
With that color scheme it doesnt seem so old to me. Old models improve a lot with modern paintschemes and techniques IMO!. Great job man! Enjoy the models :D
Dude, they look awesome.
You could do a similar comparison piece on the old and new Zoats.
Love that retro look and your paint job really elevates it!
I love this model! He’d make such a good umber hulk for dungeons and dragons!
I've always liked the similarity too!
Games Workshop actually did release an Umber Hulk model too... its charming in it's own way.
At 10:23 is one of the most concise distillations of nostalgia I've ever heard. Also great paint job.
Totally in love by your way to mix old and new ❤
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
Always nice to see someone painting with the proper hand
Really like that paintjob, looks awesome!
The great joke is, that the Ambull must be some piece of Games Workshops D&D-Europe-Licence legacy. It's so obvious, that this creature was an Umberhulk in the first place.
I think you did a great job and the best job on the old one.
Great episode and stellar painting. They look awesome together. I love the modern paint job on the retro model!
Beautiful paint job!
I just ordered one off of ebay, really excited to get my hands on it. Now I gotta find one of the Blackstone Fortress ones
👍👍Awesome interpretation by the designer and fantastic painting on both!
My son got "Claws of the Genestealer" from the library recently (he didn't like it so I read it). That has an ambull in as well.
I love how your paint job brings out the details of the rogue trader model!
0:33 You been watchin' Baldemort? 😉
Always enjoy your acquisition and painting videos - keep them coming.
BRO...I AM AMAZED....I HAD ALMOST FORGOTTEN ABOUT THESE BASTARDS!! THANK YOU FOR THAT RETRO MEMORY
AND THE SMILE I AM WEARING!
I love your retro project videos so much Jay, don't ever change dude!
I think if I were to get more old models I would want DKOK Grenediers or a metal Leeman Russ, and I was hoping for more imperial guard, but the amble is pretty cool
Damn it looks so awesome. Great paint job. You gave me some ideas with Ambot for my GSC army
Lots of glowing animals in caves. Look it up. One example glow worms in NZ.
great paint job and model
A very cool aquisition. I had one (but don't now). I can understand your excitement. I like your painted Ambull(s) & lore.
This was such a fun and informative video.
Love all your videos
Great video!!
No wood glue?? No sand!!!! Cool video. I want a tunnel digging monster now!! Thanks gents!! Fantastic as always gents!!
You did a really cool paint job to that model Jay. Nice.👍
Cool vid man these are the best bits of my day
2:48 That ambull is living on borrowed time, he just doesn't know it... 😆
Glad you painted up the Old Ambull model my friend
There was also Ambulls featured in Creatures Anathema, the monster splatbook for the Dark Heresy RPG. Skimming through that book really makes you realize how much 40k aliens are just D&D monsters but from space.
I love the new ambul and the Blackstone fortress robots. Your highlights on the blue for the new ambul look great. So does the mandible
Nice to know where the name came from. I've not painted them yet (primed and waiting) but I put together a pair of Warglaive Pattern Ambots based on a scavenged Knight :)
Came here for a dope retro model, stayed for a perfect description of why nostalgia happens
Nice little Baldemort impersonation there!
I never made the connection between the ambul and the ambots, really cool lore in that one
I had one when they first came out. I think I swapped it out for a Wood Elf tree man. 🤣
Great vid. Thank you. 👍😊
There were also kt18 rules for the ambull as well. Cool score!
I love these things :)
Paint scheme looks fantastic! 1e Rogue Trader really leaned in to being both an RPG and a wargame, taking a lot of inspiration from D&D with gamemaster-controlled events, and even directly copying specific monsters like umber hulk - I don’t know if the ferro-beast ever reappeared but it’s obviously a renamed rust monster
The more recent ambot minis are literally some of my favorite minis from GW. I have 8 of them, and each set gives you an additional 2 pairs of legs.
I dont do Warhammer anymore, but ur videos are still really entertaining and creative.
Yaaasss love em haha dem 40 K critters
Now you should build and paint an army of Ambulls. Do it!
hey! Great video and paint job Jay, check out the 'fire beetle' they have bioluminescence.
Loving the retro repaints. Can you find a snatcher grabber? I think that was it was called. Prototyranid critter that had an orc head on its weird handtentaclehead thingie.
Perfection
It's funny, once you've seen a lot of Games Workshop models you start to see things in them. Like the Blackstone Ambull looks a bit like it has some cues from the Drycha Hamadreth from Sigmar, with the sort of beehive-like bits. Or perhaps it looks like an Ambull?
great idea with having the new big one as a female, when you see the two side by side with that in mind its perfect, great job as always :D
I still have the Ambull for Blackstone Fortress NiB. I just can't make up my mind to build/paint it or sell it.
I love the old metal one. It's just an awesome mini.
The 2nd Ciaphas Cain novel got me liking Ambulls. I might have to search for a little gaggle of them someday.
Nice, hope you don't forget to paint the babies too.
Cool!
About the bioluminescence- There are quite a few insects and fungi that are bioluminescent in dry (ish, not underwater) environments here are earth, some made up sci-fi monster hailing from a completely alien biosphere? It makes even more sense.
Ambulls are what I think of when you say bugbear without DnD context
I was thinking of Umber Hulks throughout the entire video.
Yes
I'd argue that LE7 "Wizard with a Submachine Gun" is Games Workshop's Most FAMOUS Old Model.
I would say that the old Ambull had more details than the new one. The new one has numerous smooth areas.
The Ambull is pretty much a D&D Umber Hulk. Still, cool mini.
I was browsing through comments searching for "is it only me or is that just a nice Umber Hulk mini?" :D well now there's two of us lol
I always wondered what that model in my bin on metal models
Damn when yall sob's sleep ? Thought I'd be first to comment.
Love the content guys.
0:59 Gw be like ok no more tan sand EOB!! Eob be like, weeeeeell caves would be cool. haha :D
The catachan devil always caught my curiosity, i remember gw producing a representation of it for a diorama in i think a wd althoguh was no offical miniature released. Hated the later retcon of the catachan devil being a tyranid as opposed to a unique species.
Can't wait to actually get a Ciaphas Cain model so I can recreate Caves of Ice
Bought six the day the ambulls came out,down to three now and they still haven't been painted yet....must move them up the painting line.
I have two of the old models and keep intending to hunt for a third so I can field them as equivalent to Tyranid raveners.
The Umbra should be an army, it’ll be easy to speed paint, just spray the orb black
i am that one guy who got realy exited
A space marine probably was the brave fellow who tasted it
I would have liked go see an eBay Miniatures Rescue style take on the old model, putting it on a 50mm base and up on a heroic rock so that he was the right size to play as a second Ambul with similar dimensions in game.
Dammit, I had one of these... actually the one without the glue-on arms. Looked it up on [generic internet auction site], wish I knew where mine ended up, lol.
You need to get the Braaugh Slave Lord miniature from the Ogre Kingdoms range Eons of Battle. Look up the story about it.
Have you ever painted a gazkull? That would be a really cool model for you to paint
BRUH why you do me like that with the froggggg >
These are great looking models each but I would have to scrape off the little maggots on the new ambull, great paint job tho! 👍
I like the old one better tbh. It has a lot less smooth sections to the armor/carapace which I like more for the vibe
I honestly prefer the older one, it has a certain charm to it that the newer one lacks.
I regret giving mine away & using the first Power armored marine as a key fob :D
Do more retro models!!!
I’d love to see you do this with the zoats. Please
Ngl these would go great with the votann
I think by and large, mammals and many birds, the male is larger. Fish and insects the female tend to be bigger because of the energy required to carry so many eggs or young. There are exceptions of course, such as hyenas or some fish. Lizards and reptiles are actually split pretty evenly. Dinosaurs tend to switch back and forth as we learn more about them but it does appear that new studies indicate the male T Rex was bigger. It’s an interesting topic of study. Given all this though it makes sense with an ambul I think given their large amount of young that the female would be larger. Then again with the word ‘bull’ In their name it’s hard to know what GW intended.
Makes me think of Warhammer Umberhulks
Kinda I wish the hole native animales fighting against any enemy sounds fun
I.think I might know what RT602 might be ,but only becsuse I saw the headder for this vlog.
