now i don't know, but i feel like 30 some dollars for 4 metal figures wouldn't be as much fun as simply converting them ? haha i have 4 space marines right here, all lovingly converted that could easily sub for any of those four..lol
so that's what i'd recommend: don't buy it, but proxy them. with suitably tricked out marine HQ models, they could easily pass for masters of the chapter, so you would get experience firsthand at how they are and it would cost you less :]

Yep. If you don't feel like heaping the hours onto four models, and just want a awesome set to-go, go for it.
Playwise they're really just four more SM Commanders, not counting the strategic assets. Basically just to have you end up with a half-squad of characters that go around and kill stuff.

well the gnarly thing about them is they are all independant charecters. When attacking them in close combat u have to split your attacks to whitch modle is in base contact with. Each one can be equiped from the space marine armory (it says what they are equiped with in the book but hey its your chapter). U give them pistols and power weapons with teminator honors thats 5 attacks each with no saves. not to mention the chapter master

really? In Apoc?

'fexes shoot transport... start wounding...

genestealers charge... attack first... broodlord kills one, genestealers (with their 30 I6 S4 Rending attacks) kill the rest.

At least.... thats how I would see it happening...
