Not for Belial and the termies. Companions and asmodai are sweet. But Belial with standard PS and subpar banner thing.... + Good.bye to apothecary and ancient, and/or command squad....
@@michaelmagliocca9387 We only have the image shown there, not the whole decal sheet, so I can only see Guardians of the Covenant and Angels of Redemption. There could be more, but we'd have to see the whole thing to get an answer to that.
one must remember that, for all the backroom shenanigans the Dark angels take part in, less than 20% of each chapter within the Unforgiven know the fallen are a thing so keeping the Risen as "bodyguards" could be a compromise reached between Lion and the members of the inner circle we are simply seeing it from the perspective of the rank and file of the dark angels, they just showed up and started hanging out alongside the leadership of the chapter
I really like the upgrade kit. That heavy plasma gun and larger battle sword look generic enough to be used by any chapter. Great stuff for the Dark Angles players. Those models look amazing.
I might be wrong, but historically Deathwing are the only ones who can take a plasma cannon. Which isn't as big an impediment as it use to be honestly.
these are the first really properly dark angels robed primaris scale miniatures outside of characters. They look fantastic, and i'm guessing will be the basis for many conversions and "counts as". Equivalent to the firstborn veterans kit back in the day
The most interesting but for me is the upgrade sprue with the Terminator chest plate. You could tell they were going to do that as all the termi torse fronts are interchangeable now, even the Chaplain. Those chest bits will be in very high demand.
This boxset looks ace. Very tempted by it and really like the addition of two upgrade sprues. I'm just hoping the ravenwing get their glowup as well. We've had updates bikes and landspeeders, for a good while now, so the ravenwing are well due their bit of love.
Some mighty fine librarian models those Companions are. And I’m hoping the new DA upgrade sprue will give us an idea of how the new upgrade sprues for other chapters will look.
As a Dark Angels player I hope you will get something equally as cool but deep down I know that you will get a new "Wolfmaris Wolf Guard on Thunderwolves wolves with Wolf Hammers" style unit
With a potential disappearing Terminator Command Squad, could we potentially see an Apothecary in Terminator Armour? Is... is the foil whispering to me?
The two sets of decals in the bottom right corner are other chapters of the Unforgiven. They are the Guardians of the Covenant on top, and the Angels of Redemption on the bottom.
The decals should be "angels of redemtion" succesor chapter, the one with half green half bone armor. And oh boy this years christmas is massive for me 😊 i rly hope i can get my hands on one of those boxes
6:45 Right out of the gate, those look like "Angels of Redemtion" style Decals. So I would assume, there are also decals for the other two old school unforgiven chapters, as well below.
Lion: The shit? Only Deathwing and Ravenwing remain of the six wings? This ain't happenin' on my watch, Let's start from the basics. Hmm let's see... Did you kids know that we used to have these nifty squads called Deathwing Companions? ....No? Well, time for your elder brothers whom I've forgiven to show you a thing or two...
I am absolutely going to get cracking on this! I began the army last spring in anticipation of these units coming out and I am ready to friggin go! Thanks for going over this Valrak, Merry Christmas!
This gets me really excited for future chapter specific models, specifically imperial fists. I know Dark Angels and Blood Angels have a lot of fancy details, but I hope they get creative with the other chapters too…even for chaos down the road. Hobby fans are super happy!
Loving all this and will definitely get that box but very sad by the lack of Ravenwing love and effective confirmation that we’re stuck with the same push-fit, mono-pose bike kit for a few years more.
I wish the Salamanders got some love. Nothing as drastic as a full codex (tho that would be fantastic), just some chapter specific units like the heresy ones
Kinda hope all codex compliant chapters get something. Honestly, I'm all for Imperial Fist getting new stuff, but every since a ton of the mounted units went to legends White Scars need it the most.
@@Livid72Des oh yeah, white scars definitely need something, they seem to get even less than the rest. At least salamanders can use the flamer marines they came with 10th
I’m just getting in to the tabletop and I’ve wanted to build Dark Angels because they’re one of my favorite factions in the lore. And now we have these beautiful new models right before the Codex. Happy Sanguinala to me. XD
The Inner Circle unit sounds like they're not only bodguards but assassins as well. A bodyguard unit with greatswords instead of a sword and shield sounds odd, until you consider how the Dark Angels operate. I get the impression the Lion doesn't want to risk the legion/chapter name being dragged down further by any more betrayals.
when you do the maths it's total 25 pads and you get all you need to do a full squad of terminators, heavy intercessors, Aggressors, Blade Guard and then 6 for standard MkX (5 normal and 1 I guess for a Lt/Capt) and 5 phobo's. So to me thats amazing. I'm sure people who want to build a first company will be able to trade off their spare pads etc. They're all great bits IMO. The not-Fallen are the stars though. Not a DA player but might be soon looking at these.
Okay, scaled up Terminators. Cool, I guess? They seem very bereft of the personalized chapter detail that the Deathwing Command Squad models possess though. And what about Deathwing Apothecary or Ancient banner bearers? I see none of those options on either the new upgrade sprues or the Deathwing Knights. I'm actually a little disappointed in the new models and will be big-ifying my old Deathwing that have much more Dark Angels bling.
Agreed brother! This is an amazing reveal and the models look stupendous! Risen are coming to destroy the traitors. As a Dark Angels fan, I approve! For the Lion and for Caliban!
@chapter master valrak I agree… those *do* seem to be risen… I’m surprised you didn’t mention the other thing that lends credence to your theory: they have *pre heresy coloured dark angel armour.* What I am disappointed in: I think that there should be some primaris deathwing… maybe in upgrade parts kit to make some deathwing gravis marines?
Pretty sure the lore itself makes it obvious enough that their very appearance screams ANCIENT LOST DARK ANGELS WHOSE LOYALTY WAS PROVEN TO THE PRIMARCH.
The companions look dope, I just think it is weird they are in Tacticus armor? They should have given them less obviously Tacticus power packs lol, did the lion meet up with Cawl?!
Shocked that there was nothing said about what looks like new Knights. Those do not appear to be the old box, new shields and swords. Did they stealth reveal those just on the box reveal?
I miss the big banner or would of been cool if a banner was sticking out of the ground. I also wish it had the hold symbols on the legs and chest. But inner circle companions are perfect.
When I first saw the companion models I thought they were for one of the more monastic Dark Angel's successors like the Guardians of the Covenant Also I wonder if/when they’re going to release a new Sammael model
So the companions are a 3 man squad / box so they wont see much action propably on the tabletop. Upgrade sprue confirms this is the end of the termi line so command squad is going the way of the dodo. Models look good but again we lost more than we got in exchange.
Where does it say that command squad is not being replaced? Might not happened this time but it will in the future. DA players have just had a massive refresh but still whinging
@@ChaplainAppollus because they never mentioned it not here, not previously. Even when the knights were previewed people pointed out the lack of mention for the command squad but were hoping it will be released with this box. They were not, but were given a standard upgrade sprue without the mention of a later command squad release. You can surely read between the lines no?
@@ChaplainAppollus The codex is coming next month and they didn't announce the Command Squad here or when they announced the Deathwing Knights. The Command Squad is made of the current Deathwing Knights box, box that will be discontinued as soon as the new ones are released. GW stance for years has been "No model = no rule". This is the edition with Termintors as the flagship models, they are not going to release another terminator box next edition just to add a banner, a halberd and a narthecium when the "new" Deathwing Terminators are made by using the generic kit and an upgrade sprue. Do you need more evidence or are you going to go to every single comment disapointed in the disappearance of an iconic Dark Angels kit ?
praise the lion and it looks like they have decals of angel redemption and guardians of the covenant ? curious if were going to get more lore on them or were getting more diverse dark angels successor decals on the sheet too
Seeing the Belial models side by side I see what it is that bothers me. The chest is too plain as the old mini had the DA logo on his chest and the new one doesn't. I'm going to put a DA logo transfer on his chest to make it pop more.
@@Hahaha-yt2id haha I have a lot of the current upgrade spruces. I'm disappointed there aren't more of the bike pieces on it. Also did you notice the Talon Master guns aren't on this new one?
@@DacierGaming there’s only one ravenwing bit on it lmao it’s a travesty of an upgrade sprue oh yes I noticed that to this sprue is just pointless just mainly a shoulder pad sprue with some bits here and there that make no difference whatsoever I mean the ravenwing wing & company vets gave you back banners back icons vehicle iconography da dreadnought coffin plates knee plates vehicle accessories they gave you loads
I can only hope Blood Angels get something as cool as this in the future! (Other chapters also deserve it as well) Like with the Blood Angels Terminators and Sanguinary Guard, we got Dante this year which was nice but it feels like forever since we got anything else specific to their chapter, I guess the Death Company intercessors but they're kind of underwhelming (and need jump packs adding). Here's to hoping for a new Codex and some new models!
Hats off to the design team, they've absolutely smashed it.
Disagree. Some minor changes from old DA terminator minis.
@@Wigalotthey weren’t revealing the DA terminators today were they. It was the companions and beliel
@@ChaplainAppollus Oh wait yeah my bad. Sorry I got a bit confused with all the new models and videos and stuff etc. It's a lot to keep track of
Not for Belial and the termies. Companions and asmodai are sweet.
But Belial with standard PS and subpar banner thing....
+ Good.bye to apothecary and ancient, and/or command squad....
The decals in the bottom right are for Guardians of the Covenant and Angels of Redemption, so they've added successor chapters to the decal sheet.
Any for Angels of Vengenace? They are my Sucessors. Black armor with red gun cases and red robed skull on the shoulder.
@@michaelmagliocca9387 We only have the image shown there, not the whole decal sheet, so I can only see Guardians of the Covenant and Angels of Redemption. There could be more, but we'd have to see the whole thing to get an answer to that.
A genius idea on their part
The Lion and GW found a place for the Risen in the new era DA... Amazing! Really amazing!!!
Im so glad they did
@@unruly_roninme too...😉🙏
As a Fists Successor, I'm so jealous of those models, so much character and flair! Dorn please return and revamp the Fists.
Fists are just yellow ultramarines, they don’t have any character
Too bad rogal dorn is now a hellbrute
@@ChaplainAppollus imperial fist successors carry the imperial fists
Too bad Dorn is dead as a doornail
@@DonKrieg-382 - Please let this be true. I yearn to drink the tears of IF fanbois.
one must remember that, for all the backroom shenanigans the Dark angels take part in, less than 20% of each chapter within the Unforgiven know the fallen are a thing
so keeping the Risen as "bodyguards" could be a compromise reached between Lion and the members of the inner circle

What a blessing, all those models look amazing
I really like the upgrade kit. That heavy plasma gun and larger battle sword look generic enough to be used by any chapter. Great stuff for the Dark Angles players. Those models look amazing.
Yea I might get that upgrade set to use the plasma gun for my iron hands
I might be wrong, but historically Deathwing are the only ones who can take a plasma cannon. Which isn't as big an impediment as it use to be honestly.
@DanteMac26 Deathwatch Terminators are permitted to take them as well.
Could be a touring Dark Angel specifically though
these are the first really properly dark angels robed primaris scale miniatures outside of characters. They look fantastic, and i'm guessing will be the basis for many conversions and "counts as". Equivalent to the firstborn veterans kit back in the day
"What's with the Dark Angels and receding hairlines?" It's a tactical hair, always ready to perform a tactical retreat.
The most interesting but for me is the upgrade sprue with the Terminator chest plate. You could tell they were going to do that as all the termi torse fronts are interchangeable now, even the Chaplain. Those chest bits will be in very high demand.
This boxset looks ace. Very tempted by it and really like the addition of two upgrade sprues.
I'm just hoping the ravenwing get their glowup as well. We've had updates bikes and landspeeders, for a good while now, so the ravenwing are well due their bit of love.
Merry Christmas. These Dark Angels look gorgeous. I wounded if they’ll ever do any Imperial Fists box sets like this for yourself.
Some mighty fine librarian models those Companions are. And I’m hoping the new DA upgrade sprue will give us an idea of how the new upgrade sprues for other chapters will look.
Love the Dark Angels reveal. I can not wait until it is the Blood Angel's turn.
Definitely Risen. My Angels of Vengeance are looking forward to the reinforcements.
As a Space Wolves player I'm glad the Dark Angels get such cool new stuff, makes me hopeful we'll get the same treatment
As a Dark Angels player I hope you will get something equally as cool but deep down I know that you will get a new "Wolfmaris Wolf Guard on Thunderwolves wolves with Wolf Hammers" style unit
You are correct
With a potential disappearing Terminator Command Squad, could we potentially see an Apothecary in Terminator Armour?
Is... is the foil whispering to me?
The companions from the redeemed. Defending in absolute fury and zeal without any emotions unnessecary for war.
I wish all 15 terminators were dark angel specific
I'm diggin' the crossed swords on these models and the decal sheets. The old Deathwing symbol during the great crusade and the heresy.
The two sets of decals in the bottom right corner are other chapters of the Unforgiven. They are the Guardians of the Covenant on top, and the Angels of Redemption on the bottom.
I'm more interested in that new Chaos Terminator Lord wielding a Daemon Hammer in the art!!
I think when GW gets to updating chaos in this way we are going to get some awesome stuff
All this dark angels reveal bring a black peal to my eye. For loyalty is, it's own reward 🦁💚
Makes me excited for the rumoured end of edition space wolves refresh. These look great
Im so wanting these oh man please i want logan update
@@Wolfbroa me too bro me too
Already had my local store order me one. Thanks for the heads up months ago.
4:36. Hazard stripes. Iron Warriors sighted.
I want to see Space Wolves unit refresh that reduces the Wolfness and replaces it with more early medeival Scandavian Norse athestics
Pretty positive you are correct and they are Risen. Love it. Didn't want to make another space Marine force... But.
The decals should be "angels of redemtion" succesor chapter, the one with half green half bone armor. And oh boy this years christmas is massive for me 😊 i rly hope i can get my hands on one of those boxes
6:45 Right out of the gate, those look like "Angels of Redemtion" style Decals.
So I would assume, there are also decals for the other two old school unforgiven chapters, as well below.
Ok For the last year I could never decide whether to paint my marines as blood or dark angels. Those models made up my mind.
New risen being Asmodai's personal guard is great irony
I think they're not to protect Asmodai from foes, but to protect foes from Asmodai.
Lion: The shit? Only Deathwing and Ravenwing remain of the six wings?
This ain't happenin' on my watch, Let's start from the basics. Hmm let's see... Did you kids know that we used to have these nifty squads called Deathwing Companions? ....No? Well, time for your elder brothers whom I've forgiven to show you a thing or two...
I’m so unbelievably excited for the scalpers to grab every box and sell them for 6x the price
GW did an amazing job here with these miniatures, I can't wait to add them to my collection ❤
Love them. That wraparound banner... 🤤
Merry Christmas, Val. Hope Sanity Claws brought you everything you wanted.
I am absolutely going to get cracking on this! I began the army last spring in anticipation of these units coming out and I am ready to friggin go! Thanks for going over this Valrak, Merry Christmas!
And just like that I’m starting a Dark Angels army! Absolutely love these new models and the variety and flair for the chapter specific designs 🤩
I'm here for the OG Dark Angels in black power armor.
I've never been one to hunt those limited edition boxes, but for this one, I'll be in the que. Well done GW!
This gets me really excited for future chapter specific models, specifically imperial fists. I know Dark Angels and Blood Angels have a lot of fancy details, but I hope they get creative with the other chapters too…even for chaos down the road. Hobby fans are super happy!
The fallen look like primaris armor. Personally would have loved old armor but they do look dope as hell
Loving all this and will definitely get that box but very sad by the lack of Ravenwing love and effective confirmation that we’re stuck with the same push-fit, mono-pose bike kit for a few years more.
Dark Angels purging with style
Receding hair lines you say have I been with the wrong chapter for the last 10 years!
Merry Christmas! Can’t wait to get my hands on that box set!
Models look awesome, I'm just disappointed in the upgrade sprue, no tabards, 1 ravenwing wing, no winged helmets.
Otherwise the rest looks great.
As a GK player, I seeth with envy at all the awesome DA truescale space marine knights.
I'm not too excited for the Terminators, but those Companions, backing up the Lion? Hell yeah!!!
Merry Christmas for us fellow DA players!
Dark Angels continue to win the drip competition as usual.
As a dark angels fan. I'm loving all these new models. For the lion!
I wish the Salamanders got some love. Nothing as drastic as a full codex (tho that would be fantastic), just some chapter specific units like the heresy ones

Chapter Master Valrak, The extras on the Decal sheet are from Dark Angel Successor chapters, the Angels of Redemption if my eyes are not deceiving me.
These are absolutely PERFECT for my army. FIFTEEN NEW TERMINATORS!!! FOR THE LION!! FOR CALIBAN!!! FOR THE KNIGHTS OF NIHILUS!!!!
FOR THE EMPEROR!!!!!

There's also chapter specific phobos shoulder pads for the first time
If I finally ever decide to finish my Titus board game set I think ill invest in some dark angels these look sick asf
I called it. I believed in my glorious king Belial and the legend showed up just as he said he would
These will be awesome Black Templar Models!
Love the models. I’ll be saving my money for the blood angels in a couple years time
Lol you will be waiting a while. BA don't get the love these guys do
Agreed brother! This is an amazing reveal and the models look stupendous! Risen are coming to destroy the traitors. As a Dark Angels fan, I approve! For the Lion and for Caliban!

Glad to be a Dark Angel on this day!
now we need are new models for sammeal and ezekiel
What’s to say there aren’t two sprues like with all the primaris upgrade kits previous?
Christmas day been spent watching season 1 of mando as I got it for Christmas
Finally we have real dark angels models
The companions look dope, I just think it is weird they are in Tacticus armor? They should have given them less obviously Tacticus power packs lol, did the lion meet up with Cawl?!

@colinmorrison2446 they were revealed last month
hoping we get more upgrade spures down the line, only one ravenwing acessory seems limiting and loss of the talonmaster would be a huge hit
I'm holding my fingers crossed for such un upgrade kit for Ultramarines come march (March for MacRagge) or June (my birthday 😁). These are so lovely.
I miss the big banner or would of been cool if a banner was sticking out of the ground. I also wish it had the hold symbols on the legs and chest. But inner circle companions are perfect.
Merry Christmas everyone!
upgrade kits are fine. was hoping with the deathwing we would see updated Assault Terms.
When I first saw the companion models I thought they were for one of the more monastic Dark Angel's successors like the Guardians of the Covenant
Also I wonder if/when they’re going to release a new Sammael model
Happy have a good Christmas lads ! I’m so hype about this already hinting to the misses what my birthday present in match will be … for the Lion 🦁

Even Joy Toy also pushing Dark Angel Termies just 4 days ago. Dark Angels is getting the love in 2024

Here's to hoping for a new Codex and some new models!
They can't even provide decent balance to the BA. Forget about anything decent coming there way.
Dante and mephistone are great models@@anardil8664
Do we know if there are any more Dark Angels releasing besides what we’ve been shown?
I want to use one of those risen for my inquisitor in power armor conversion base
Looks like the foil was wrong about that storm bolter ;)
