Razorback

I was thinking about adding some razorback on my list.

Correct me if i'm wrong but their is pretty high chance GW put this one on legend very soon ?

Certainly seems like it. Rhinos are probably staying though. I too want a couple Razorbacks so I'm building rhinos and kitbashing a Lascannon turret to just put on top. That way I get a model that can do both.

The fact they made rhinos Primaris-capable suggests they are going to stay. They also fill a niche of a cheap, light tank that can carry a full squad.

Definitely sad that razorbacks are gone/on their way out. Back when I actively played GK (5th/6th), I loved having my little psybolt razorback gunline. Obviously psybolt ammo's gone now but I still liked the setup.

The razorback is safe for at least another year before we get our codex. I would be shocked if they took razorbacks away from us, but even if they do, you can run them as rhinos (just tell your opponent to ignore the big lascannon on top :) )

Yes, everything oldmarines is likely to get squatted. There is small chance that it will get Terminators treatment (I'm still schocked that they did not adopt Aggresors into Terminators but refreshed them) or they will get Primaris upgrade like Land Speeder.

I would bet that Impulsor will get new box with upgrade sprue to make them "razorback" like (as Gladiators are more like Predators).

i highly doubt it grey knights dont have alot of vehicles/ anti tank its either A: will be replaced by some new anti tank or B: they will just let it stay until we get the new model sizes. everyone thinks we follow space marines (we dont) we are our own thing thats why we still get to use our dreadnought, storm ravens, and razorbacks.

Possibly, but that's not really a problem. You can easily assemble one to swipe between Razorback and Rhino at any moment, you don't even have to use magnets, so even if it happens, you can still use it as a Rhino.

I just magnetize the hatch / weapon so i can swap it around

If you just refrain from gluing the top-hatch on, you can easily swap between razorback/rhino up until such a time as Razorbacks are legends'd.

or, if you're not going to tournaments, just keep using the razorback if your group/local players let you.

Legends *are* legal
