Advancing the story is great, at least for someone interested in the lore and has read everything already. The model is 50/50 for him, he certainly looks big
Think it is great that finally the story is moving forward, hopefully gearing up for a good 8th edition (and not an Age of ****mar situation).

I quite like it but it took me a times of looking at it to like it, it kind of makes sense that it's Rouboute they bring back. The helmeted version looks better IMO however it is strange seing a Primarch with a helmet after all the Forgeworld ones are helmet-less.
Cypher is an awesome looking model and the GK guy isn't too bad either, this will be the first Triumvirate box I pick up I think.
I'm pleased they are advancing the story line after all this time, they've got a real opportunity to do something fantastic here so let's just hope they don't completely balls it up. From all the rumors flying around there are some interesting theories with most of the pointing straight into WH40K 8th edition.
Agree in regards that this is a huge opportunity to absolutely make this edition (8th) absolutely immense, with some excellent story elements.
I think bringing Rouboute back is great (honestly, not too biased as a player of the Ultramarines
).

I hate the model personally, really tacky. His head looks so small. Love the Cypher model though, so good to see a classic brought back. Shame I'll have to buy it off a bits site though because their current **** your customer strategy is these packs of three models so you can't buy things individually.
I actually think all three models look excellent, as do the six released already. I totally agree about it being rubbish that you cannot buy them individually.
They could make a killing by releasing three ways; Trio / Trio with new book, Individual (little special edition booklet explaining rules/formations), with an army / force for £££.
