Pretty wild. When they announced Primaris this is what I thought they were going to do, but then after two full editions of old/new marines living together I'd assumed they'd given up on that idea. So many classics are heading out...
A ton of First Born marine stuff is going to Legends

I have no problem with the new models, sure some of it isn't my kind of thing but that has always been the case.
For me one of the big draws of 40k was the empire in decline narrative. Ancient technology being kept alive by techno-priests, the fact that most of the technology is irreplaceable, the emperor who created these super humans is a corpse so this is what we have. It isn't going to get better. Primaris marines sort of shit all over that.
I won't be buying any, but fair play to folks who do. Hobbies are about what you enjoy, not what other folks will.

A sad day indeed, I still don't understand why they didn't just do a redesign instead of the whole Primaris thing.
The miniatures for the Horus Heresy are great, so updating old kits with new ones could have worked really well.
