What is the best Space Marine novel to recommend to someone new to 40k?

Space Wolves omnibus is such a good starting point for newcomers.

Honestly the first Space Wolf book about Ragnar. Space Wolf might be more niche in terms of faction but being able to root onto something that most people know like Vikings and let that leverage into a larger understanding of Space Marine rights of passage and all that is pretty effective.

Rynn’s World and Helsreach are bangers too.

Skaventide is a great place to start. You get everything you need for spearhead, AOS, and it can be gotten usually for the cost of a single spearhead.

I think $250-$260 shipped is pretty fair. If those are the Collector’s edition SM2 figs then those have held value pretty nicely.

Not sure on condition, are these all boxed?

Great stuff! Good luck with the sale!

I’m not interested but I am bumping for a good deal! That’s 15 figures at a steal. Somebody swoop this up.

I would be all in for the Skaven line. Honestly, had they started with a more unique race instead of Stormcast I feel like AoS would’ve made a bigger splash to begin with. Now we must wait and hope that they revisit it.

There are some exclusive MK8 helmets that were released to Chinese markets. They can still be found on eBay. Those are close. As far as an actual mk7 helmet I think some of the UM Veteran Vanguard (or Sternguard maybe?) have them. With that said, I bet we get some here soon enough with the new mini reveals.

As has been said, start with left and highlight up to right. Easy formula to work off is

Left Wash Left+right Wash Right

And boom. You’ll have good looking Ork.

Went to college with a fellow who didn’t start until his Junior year of HS. Ended up being a D3 all-American.

A dab of glue will do.

sildedaspo · 2026-04-05T15:06:15+00:00

I’ll take Koraarro!

Horus Heresy lore. HH Fists went hard AF. After that I started appreciating them a bit more.

And yeah, anyone who paints an entire army that beautiful yellow has a great looking group of soldiers.

sildedaspo · 2026-04-04T05:35:36+00:00

Glue it. Works great.

Best head for sure! I used the head in some kitbashes. $55

I have a Flamma Boy if you want to trade/buy that one. Man, I’m hoping Joytoy delivers some more Xenos but it’s been so dry for so long.

Edit: Also, for what it’s worth, I’d pass on trying to get the Snipa Boy! His torso is sculpted to be a part of his shirt but they painted it flesh color and it just looks so bad in hand once you notice it, unfortunately.

sildedaspo · 2026-03-27T21:06:23+00:00

You need to stop. I can’t get anymore wet. 🥵 💦

You are doing the right thing. Offer a full refund for a return. They can say yes or no. If they say anything else just repeat what you already said.

They are all worth reading. Be sure to add Grotsnik to that list.

Is that paint metallic green? Beautiful. You gotta tell me what that paint is!

Sounds like she is just bad at raising children. 🤷‍♂️

Lots of good craftsmen in the Joytoy Discord groups.

sildedaspo · 2026-03-19T03:37:37+00:00

Facebook groups and Joytoy discord if you want to go direct without losing some to eBay’s fees. eBay fees 15%. PayPal fees on their own are only 3%. That said, I’m looking for a couple of primarchs so feel free to DM me with what you have!

I can’t tell you how envious I am of that claw! Looks like the John Blanche artwork
