I used to have one of those, back in the day ... with the wide body, short legs and twin powerfists both with twin bolters! Sigh ... that takes me back ... even had one of the chaos ones ... all probably leaking [lead] contaminants into some landfill in darkest Surrey now, of course ...
While I *LOVE* alot of the old Rogue Trader era and 1990's stuff I never really felt the Dreadnoughts.. "What were the alternatives?" you ask, well as I was a nipper I loved my Space Crusade - they were Chaos Dreads yes, but they just seemed to looked much cooler than the official Imperial jobs and hinted at what could be.. When the "new" boxy Dreads came out I was very happy. I remember there were a few different types of these, some with slightly longer arms, others more stocky.
I have a few of these.. wasn't sure whether to use em or not.. (There's always Ork looters I s'pose). I Will really be looking forward to what you can do with em mate.. You may just inspire me! :)
OH MY GOD! I'm mega jellous! I used to dream of owning these guys when I was at school, creaming over the GW catalogues, writing imaginary mail orders but my paper round never stretched far enough :O( Can't wait to see these assembled and painted :O)
