As it says in the title. Could you stick some marine arms on them and a marine helmet and get a true scale marine? I have not seen any in the flesh yet.

Adeptus Custodes with Sigmar box.

Thanks Blacksmith. Looks like true scale marines are now doable.

They are true scale Marines as is.

Yes. That's part of the joke.

Yup put some cloaks on them and I could make some proper size Dark Angels.

I don't agree that they liook like Marines but I am very partial to the older Beakies and older versions of the next two MKs of power armors. I think the infusion of chaos/ fantasy elements blurred the lines between PA and fantasy/ medieval armors.

The armor doesnt look like power armor to me. If GW had marketed them as power armor marines, the anti-GW people on TMP would be complaining and losing their minds. However, I think the size is good and they would be good to convert into true scale elite type marines in fancy or articifer armor (such as veterans or characters). Normal marine arms would probably be too small and look funny. You would need to add some wires and hoses, a marine backpack and other such things to make the look right, but it would probably be a great looking conversion.

I wouldn't use them as true scale SM's. Not only is the armor wrong but it would also make your Termies look relatively small.

Well, you just need to make some true-scale terminators….
