I still remember the White Dwarf adverts when they sold a box of 2 Landraiders for £12 or £13. From the pictures on GW site, I feel like these new ones might be slightly longer than the original.
Just for your interest: In the Heresy rules the Proteus Carrier can transport up to 12 models (Terminators count as 2 as usual) and has the assault vehicle special rule - so you can charge out of the assault ramp. The Proteus Explorator can only carry up to 8 models (so no Terminator / full size 10 man squad) and it does not have the assault vehicle rule. However, it is a scout and can therefore infiltrate.
I play 40k and I'm using the Chaos Land Raider. I can't decide between this and the Spartan to use as a proxy, so I think I'm just gonna get both! There is such a thing as collecting, right? 🤷♂️😄 They'll both look good with spikes and chains.
I honestly don't get the appeal of that thing at all. It's the shortbus equivalent of a Land Raider. Which isn't a compliment. Maybe if it was kind of an open top, sort of a Land Speeder but on the ground, instead of that horrid quad. But like this. Nah, not for me. If you're a completionist okay fine, but otherwise. No thanks.
@@x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x The Proteus looks like you took a Land Raider and washed it too hot and too long, so it shrunk and looks stupid. I think it would look better if it was a Land Speeder with Tracks, basically a small open top scout tank/all terrain vehicle. The Primaris have their little toy ATV already, i would remove the stupid little wheels and add the proteus tracks. Does that make sense?
@@redsampler2017 Yeah I have three Land Raiders, 3 Rhinos and a Predator and Kratos. I am more into walkers overall, that's why I have a lot of knights and warhounds.
My God !! I'm so old, I can remember buying two of these for £10.00 , back in the eighties 🙂🙂
That's equivalent of today's £54.86

Oh wow are you going back 30years or so? Yeah these are longer

I still feel like these tanks should be much bigger. In it's current size, terminators would have to crawl from that front ramp opening.
These Landraiders are looking great. Can't wait for mine to be delivered.
Can we get a size comparrison video of all the new HH tanks. Land raider variants and some Marines. Thanks.
Got one of these on Saturday. Using in in my 40k chaos army
-Blast- Back from the past
the old dude in the movie(christopher walken) was right.. its time to build another bunker..🤣

woaa great peice tank this land raider !
I can't wait to see it built for some professional comparison. I'm not sure about this one yet.
Thanks for the review. Barring any unforeseen issues my own arrives later today...
At some point Ill have to compare this proteus to the original land raider to look at proportions. Just how much bigger it will be I wonder
Despite not playing Horus Heresy I wish I could afford some of these.😔
Not sure what else they can do other than release these in plastic which the majority wanted as it’s £114 in resin.
Do you ever paint any of these models?
He doesn't even put them together anymore. What a waste of money imho.
@@x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x that is strange because ive always see him active building stuff.🤔
Helleeeeeeeeuuuuuuuuuuuuuuwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww aaaaaaaaaan welcoommmmmmeeeeeeeee
Iconic or not, it looks stupid and always looked stupid, Spartans or MKII B is where its at.
