I love the subtle shade in the comment "I don't have time to put a magnet here because I just spent 6 hours putting this thing together."

This is not a kit for beginners. I found the assembly of the "duders" to be similar to those included in the Indomitus box. There is a sweet spot for the parts to fit so you just need a bit of patience to find it. Tamiya extra thin is ideal. The sub assemblies make it easier to paint. all that to say, just take your time. This is the centerpiece of a Necron army and it deserves to be built and painted well.

@@SaltyBob355 you should think about your relationship if doing your hobby gets you in trouble. I don't get it, why bothering with a relationship like this if the other person wants to kick you out of the house for doing what you like 🤔

It is expensive, but it is worth it. It is a unique surpreme commander and something very special. It is as big as a Demon Primarch, but not as massive, but filled with details. The kit is cool, but there are a few very difficult parts, the both Triarch mebers are a hell to assemble, the rest is ok. One of the best things is, that you can build in modules, for better painting before final glueing...

So funny. Last night I stopped right when I finished the vehicle. I looked at the dooders and said. Nope. I'm going to bed.

You chose wisely LOL

Thank you for being honest and not just a GW hype machine. The model is gorgeous for sure, but all the points you raise are super valid and should be considered against the hobby dollar. Thanks again for a solid review!

Finished mine yesterday - had the exact same reaction as you ! 😱😂 “Looks easy .................. ffffFFFFUU!”

The characters were a hassle and a half to put together. Everything else wasn't bad. Looking forward to getting this baby on the table.

Looks Awesome! I'll add it to my Christmas Wishlist...

Looking at the instructions, I think I'd probably partly assemble the Throne and paint it then put it fully together. Looks like a pain to paint if fully assembled

Great review Rob much appreciated

Excellent, now we need one for the Emperor of Mankind :D

Love this model review!

how is the stability on the base though? is it as fragile as im assuming?

Not a Necron player myself, but really appreciating the non-biased breakdown of this model. It's as close as I'll see in detail without buying it. Something of this size will definitely catch the attention of many players old and new. I can't help but be slightly amused over one the most approachable factions to build and paint having this level of center-piece model. Intentional or not I feel the designer had a dark and ironic sense of humor there.

This will be my 3rd miniature. My first was Belisaurias Cawl, didn’t so much as dive into the deep end, so much as learned to swim in Mariana’s Trench. My second is Ghazkull Thraka. I’ve learned to just buy the shit that looks dope, and take my time putting them together over days. Don’t play 40k, but have a growing Black Library.

Literally i spent a month perfecting my nagash. The silent king ill take as long as i need to make perfect. Thank you for the tips tho!

Hey bud. Been enjoying the channel and noticed you had Dicehead mentioned in your videos. Are you local to them? They've been a local & semi-local LGS for me for a bit.

use their little grabber arm stand to make the duders easier

Nice looking model. Pricey but well made.

awesome video helps a lot :)

I just want to be able to build the Kaurava overlord

Kit looks very well designed for sub assemly.

Awesome review!i think the reason its so intricate and flimsy is due to the fact that GW is deterring fake 40k products recasting industry imho..

You make a lot of good points but damn that still is a sweet looking kit. Makes me want to start a Necron army but wife would kill me. Lol

6 hrs seems appropriate as this I more a show piece than something to play on the Table Top

Is it bad that i want this throne to be a transport for other dudes and the stone things to be a buyable upgrade for other characters?

Fail for me on this one he doesn’t quite pop unlike Magnus or the 2 chaos gods

cool as hell

You’re the fucken man for this one Rob.

Characters are impossible for me to put together at the moment its so frustrating

My biggest issue Is that in the books dante's description of the silent king being almost human like and completely different than the necrons but still necron this guy looks like a generic lord with a silly massive cape and an awful crown that would have massive issues getting through any door

This kit is brutal, but it is also the best looking model in the army, and you only have to build one. Definitely the worst build experience I've had, 0/10. Glad mine somehow turned out well.

Void Dragon takes the best necron kit spot for me tbh. But this one is really awesome. Just not a huge fan of diorama miniatures, since they lose a lot of "life" since poses really cant be all that dynamic.

I am super late to responding, but I was thinking about getting this kit but switching out the people for DnD characters. I still might get it if the characters are what makes this kit suck cause they were going out anyway...something to think about.

"Hardest kit to build" Have you built the vect kit by chance?

I love you, Rob.

If im goonna spend the money ill take big red with wings.

Hey Rob, love the rants! Yuk, yuk, but this doesn't compair to the disaster builds of an Age of Sigmar's Mortis Engine! Now that's a real bitch to build if you'd ask me by comparison to this necron build. Lol

Games Workshop is notorious for making model assembly ridiculous with small tiny seperate parts that really are not necessary imo.

$150 should be the "assembled and painted" version. Cut the price in half...now you have something.

Yeah it is so bad I even complained to gw about this one, i had to heat and bend parts to get stuff to fit even cut a few parts.

“Please”... “no joke”. Sense of aspirational accomplishment (newbie) fading...

GW has a serious issue designing they're builds for Necron units. Like they're vehicles go together really well, but the obsessions with making you put together 15 parts for the upper body, then sliding in 12 other parts for the legs needs to stop. It makes building these things an absolute pain in the ass.

The Silent king looks like a DJ at a concert. Stand Speakers on each side. With Timmy trumpet (Silent King) wearing the silver suit of Vitas (Ctan) as his body is flayed for singing. Necron party time. Fail definitely.

I think GW deliberately made it hard to assemble to make you mess up in assembly so you would be required to buy another kit.

Used him for first time and he got killed by a Vindcare in Turn 1

As an technical Drawer in Engineering for an World Wide Company is say: Difficult? Or very Difficult? No Sir. I build very complicated Assambly Groups for some Projects. They are so big and complex, we need a Team of 150 People to manage it. Yes this Modell has some difficult Steps......but my 15 year old Son build it together, with cleaning at the assembling, in 4 hours! I don't know where the Problem is. The modelling Work is cool. But it took 6 hours for me to Copy the Silent King with my CAD Programms 1 to 1. Yes That's me and other People has Not such ability's.....but hey, GW Modells are Not so complicated to assemble. Check Out the Asia Hobby Sector and watch what they produce. THAT'S HORRIFIC. (Please don't Take this as an insult, i don't have actually the Time to recommanter it) Best Regards from Germany, Mannheim 😁

FAIL! Because lorewise he shouldnt be so machinelike but look completly different from the necrons. And flexible like no other. Also, he alone is rather weak If you check out his rules, yet he should have the by far advanced body in a race that already is far far far ahead tech-wise. His model doesnt represent this at all! His rules neither. It IS a cool model otherwise, the throne looks great. It just doesnt represent the lore of the silent king at all.

A lot of Necron kits are bad. Not easy

Lol ffs. I dont even have the kit and I can tell you the Silent King doesnt need his cape glued to the podiun first. You legit sound like you never put a miniature together.
