Pretty disappointed that the demo vet doesnt have the skull gas mask hes supposed to have. He would have been my immediate pick if he had. So i have the sergeant on the way. Should be here monday. May do some painting on mine to get him to match my 40k army scheme a bit better. Ill probably also clip the strap off the lasrifle.
Ooi I'd definitely be up for a skull gas mask! Are you going to be painting it different to the current colour scheme, or just enhancing what's already there? Yeah, that strap on the rifle just looks a bit off when he's holding it to shoot
@@SkellywagsTV hmm the closest thing we are getting are the Darktide figures that has a Krieg-esque figure, a Cadian guard. Hopefully thatll shift into a Krieg soldier later on!
They're meant to come off, but they don't stay in place very well. I think they should've just stuck them on coz they look awful without their helmets lol
I'm still yet to get one of those chonky boys, but I did cave and bought the captain in gravis armour. He's chonky but with a cape lol I should get him in the post soon. Boys and our toys! Lol
A cool look at these guys, I am glad to see it is possible to get them into crouching poses with a bit of tweaking. That Dredd looked nice too.. I'm really hoping the Hiya Toys ones live up to my hopes and expectations. 💚🥰🙏🤘🧙♂🔥🌈
As flawed as these are, they're quite charming! The look and little details really work. Oh yes, I've wanted this one and only acid rain Dredd custom from Battle Planets for a while. A shame he's out of the toy photography game now, but I'm glad I was able to acquire this from him. Fingers crossed the Hiya Dredd is as good! However, I'm loving the chunky acid rain aesthetic on my version. Will definitely have to grab that Lawmaster bike!
@@SkellywagsTV Yeah dude, an acid rain style Dredd, whats not to love.. Are you going to do a video on him? Be interesting to get a closer look. I am also excited for the law master bike. The Outriders from joytoy too.. So much to get our teeth into atm. 🙏💚🥰
Yeah, I'll be doing a little vid. Got a load of vids lined up. Just getting distracted by more and more new toys! Also just finished my first paint job of some 3D printed parts to finish my Space Wolves custom. Definitely wanna check out that Outriders bike too. So many bikes!
@@SkellywagsTV got them today, at first I thought lockertoys didnt sent the full order because the box seems so small but when I opened them I saw how small the boxes are lol. Beste forme are the sergeant and the flamer
Lol yeah, they're compact. I prefer the smaller packaging. Even though I've only got three, for me it's out of those two as well. I like the simplicity of the flamer and the sergeant had some great extras!
Fingers crossed they do! They're falling behind Joytoy in terms of the amount being released. I'm gonna get a McFarlane Mega Nob to go against my small marines!
Man.. no Van Dam Split. Most likely pass on this one, unless it's possible to remove the lower half of the coat and replaced it with fabric (That's a lot of customization though). BTW, I thought I'm done with Warhammer40k but I orderered Veteran Bladeguard 02 and it arrived today. And it's awesome!!!
Yeah, you can definitely replace the lower skirting part and replace with fabric. Might be quite a bit of work though. It feels like it's glued on. It's a good figure despite its flaws, but it's not great. Yeah, love my Bladeguard! I'm trying to be very selective with my 40k purchases now lol
I know that, mate. I said I like the "steampunk-esque vibe", I'm not saying they're specifically steampunk. If you check some of my coverage of this in my 1/18 toy news i do refer to the krieg as something out of an alternate WW1. I'm not a total n00b 💀
Mate, cheers for sorting that out! So chuffed I was able to snag the two customs of yours that I really wanted. Was thinking of snagging that mcfarlane custom, but looks like someone else took it. Planning on hopefully doing my own inspired by Thunderwulfen!

I bought two but immediately had to repaint / heavy weathering. They look much better after a little work but they're essentially statues.
Yeah, not great for dynamic posing, that's for sure. Some weathering on them would do some good!
Great review! was waiting for this one!
Cheers Glasseater! I wonder how McFarlane would handle the Krieg
@@SkellywagsTV hmm the closest thing we are getting are the Darktide figures that has a Krieg-esque figure, a Cadian guard. Hopefully thatll shift into a Krieg soldier later on!
Are the helmets meant to come off or does it seem like poor adhesive application? Thanks in advance!
They're meant to come off, but they don't stay in place very well. I think they should've just stuck them on coz they look awful without their helmets lol
@@SkellywagsTV thanks for letting me know, looks like it was almost a QC issue. As always great work on another informative video!
i have a question can the strap come off the guardsman's gun?
It's glued on. So if you take it off, that's it. Unless you glue it back on
I got the blood angel aggressor and it's a cool toy I mean model lol. But these are great glad I came across them
I'm still yet to get one of those chonky boys, but I did cave and bought the captain in gravis armour. He's chonky but with a cape lol I should get him in the post soon. Boys and our toys! Lol
@@SkellywagsTV yeah he is very big he poses well but his arms are a bit hard to pose. But it is a cool model
Got the primaris captain in yesterday. Boy he's flawed, but kinda what I was expecting and exactly what I wanted right now. Love his chonky frame!

@@SkellywagsTV It is a good time to be alive man 😂😂 Enjoy your day brother, i'll look forward to seeing those vids. 💚🙏🤘
I wish that they would reissue them. $170 for a regular Guardsman is ridiculous
Damn. 170 for one? That's a bit much! BBTS still has a few, a bit more expensive than they were but a lot cheaper than 170
Does JoyToy use lead paint?
I'm really not sure what kind of paint they use mate. Sorry.
Nice review, mine are on their way
Cheers fella! Did yo get them all?
@@SkellywagsTV I got them all
Nice! Lemme know which one you like best
@@SkellywagsTV got them today, at first I thought lockertoys didnt sent the full order because the box seems so small but when I opened them I saw how small the boxes are lol. Beste forme are the sergeant and the flamer

Are these guardsmen and the space marines worth getting? I plan on buying two Kriegers and a Chaos Havoc marine.
If you can get them for a good price! The marines are definitely more of the standout, but definitely worth looking at it all
@@SkellywagsTV Thanks!
Thank goodness mcfarlane did the traitor guard and imperial troopers. Want mcfartlane to do this unit as well 👍👍👍💯😝
Fingers crossed they do! They're falling behind Joytoy in terms of the amount being released. I'm gonna get a McFarlane Mega Nob to go against my small marines!
As always, awesome review!!!...The Steiner figure looks freaking amazing 👏🏼 👌🏽 🙌 😀 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🔥🔥🔥😁🤝🏼
Thanks mate! Yeah he looks great
I like the flamethrower figure.Lots of cool details. Look like it's time to burn some zombies to ashes.💀
He'd even work as a solo character, looking to rewatch the world burn! 💀
“He’s a flamer dude”… 😂
Offical GW terminology lol

Yeah, love my Bladeguard! I'm trying to be very selective with my 40k purchases now lol
Well there goes my paycheck.
Lol Joytoy are releasing so much. Hard to keep up!
@@SkellywagsTV loved the video, glad I found your channel through this video!
Lol nice one bro!
Cheers mate!
Not steampunk! Inspired by photos of trench WW1 german and french soldiers!
I know that, mate. I said I like the "steampunk-esque vibe", I'm not saying they're specifically steampunk. If you check some of my coverage of this in my 1/18 toy news i do refer to the krieg as something out of an alternate WW1. I'm not a total n00b 💀
Glad you like the customs man, ✊️ (@battle.planets)

@@SkellywagsTV yeah it went man, you defo should, loved doing it
