[…] appears they will be able to board a Land Raider, so I believe this also settles the question of what size the Centurions are? (e.g. “just” Terminator-sized I would think, unless GW is pulling out some entirely […]

True. The more I think about it, the more it seems like they will be 40mm bases.
That does, however, pose it’s own questions. If they are sized about the same as a Terminator, why even bother? And why would you package them 3-a-box (as opposed to Terminator’s 5-a-box)?
The 3-a-box made me think (perhaps wrongly) in the direction of Bloodcrushers of Khorne.

My guess is they are on a 40mm base. I did a quick check and I came up with 36.577mm for the approximate base size when I compared the helmet eye socket width between the Centurion and a Tactical Marine (both were 21 pixels) and then the width of the bases (Tactical was 149 pixels and the Centurion was 218 pixels).

They’re not all textured. Bloodcrushers come with blank bases.

Good point. But that would make them as large as Terminators max. Smaller even for the head, but larger for the legs.

Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t all GW’s newer 60mm bases textured? like the cracked terrain on a dreadnough base? therefore since they aren’t on textured bases they must be on 40mm bases, correct?

i highyly doubt theyre on 60mm bases. a box of 3 broadside-sized creatures seems unreasonable, or at least ridiculously expensive

i think a squad of 3 will make a monstrous creature(or have the effect of one on the Battlefield) at least i hope so
