Getting hold of these minis might be tricky though. The Heroes range does feel like GW’s attempt at making true scale First Born. The easiest method is to just buy the Season 2 Heroes range. I’ve still not decided which route I’ll go down and I’d love to hear people’s opinions on these options or other methods which I might not have considered. With those models in mind, here are a few options for making True Scale Terminators. However, even taking those things into account, this should be good enough to make some decision as about which models to use. While as accurate as possible, there are some variables such as the angle of the photo, positioning of the model on the base, the pose of the model, and even things like different camera lenses which could all potentially lead to inaccuracies.I’ve also included a Heavy Intercessor as a comparison as this could also be a good basis for converting true scale terminators.The blue line represents the eye level of the Primaris Intercessor which is my comparison model.This isn’t as easy as it seems due to how the models are posed or positioned on the base. The red line represents the centre of the base, or the bottom of the feet/foot.I’ve scaled each model to its correct base size.What planned to be a quick job turned into a much larger project it turns out Games Workshop sells a LOT of different terminators! I’ve tried to include as many of them as possible here, ignoring some of the older kits and character models. Photoshop seemed like a good way to put this to the test. An additional option is to use gravis armour with terminator components.īefore I went off buying models, I wanted to see if there was any size difference between the patterns of terminator armour in the various model ranges, allowing me to work out which are the largest terminators available. The aim here is either to buy terminators and use them out of the box, if their size is large enough, or to use them as the basis for a conversion into something larger. I love the idea of using terminators with my Primaris Minotaur army, but it seems like the standard terminators don’t really hold up in comparison to Primaris Intercessors as they are just too small.

I’ve recently gone down the True Scale Terminator rabbit hole.
