It'll give you a head start painting them for your "Hello Kitty" chapter.

Slaanesh, right?

They go well with the Emperor's Pimps chapter, my next after completing the Iron Brains. They just need neckties and they're good to go!

They look like Peeps. Good for Easter I guess.

You would get table cred if they're the original plastic beakies.

Pepto Bismol Space Marine Chapter, formed to solve the Emporer's indigestion

If you look real close I think whoever owned these made them female Space Marines, which technically is impossible since there are no female Space Marines.

mweaver13 Mar 2008 2:49 p.m. PST

Oh, there are too. I've seen 'em.

My daughter painted a Space Marine Terminator I gave her a lovely shade of pink, with blue trim. She was 3 when she did it.

Jakar Nilson13 Mar 2008 3:36 p.m. PST

They're painted in "Char Aznable Red"!

The Pink Comet, Jakar?

Now, admittedly, the first time I ever watched MobileSuit Gundam, the VHS tape was so many generations down from the base tape that Char was pink!

I bet its Titillating Pink. I painted some Harlequins Titillating Pink and Bilious Green when I was a kid.

They're not pink. They're light red!

Now, admittedly, the first time I ever watched MobileSuit Gundam, the VHS tape was so many generations down from the base tape that Char was pink!

I recall when the Gundam action figures where in every department store (around 2000- and it was a few years before I watched the original MSG), and they had lots of blisters of Char's custom Zaku II, and it definately was pink. His tailor and his pit stop crew definately weren't on speaking terms until "Char's Counterattack"! :P

I'd vote for Slaanesh as well; always a good excuse to paint things pink.

Malbrook14 Mar 2008 6:12 a.m. PST

Well, I once painted up a unit of Neapolitan Guard-- 1/3 each in brown, white, and pink. In formation, they looked like a marching carton of ice cream.

Dropzonetoe Fezian14 Mar 2008 10:29 a.m. PST

Wasn't there a marine chapter called the "Rainbows" or something like that in 1st ed?

Sparrowhawk14 Mar 2008 11:50 a.m. PST

A friend of mine collected a chapter called "The Rainbow Warriors". I'm not sure if he got them from the Rogue Trader book or if he made them up.

Dave Crowell14 Mar 2008 12:30 p.m. PST

The Rainbow Warriors were a "real" chapter. They may have appeared in an Index Astartes article in WD, or on the box of the plastic beakies.

And the Hello Kitty space marines do exist: picture picture
as do these: link
