What’s in the Box: Galleon – Rask – Warspear Chieftain
March 5, 2013 by dignity
Video Sponsors Mercs - Battle Foam
Time for another unboxing with Justin, Stu, and introducing Kev one of the Privateer Press Press Gangers. Today the guys have brought out the Galleon, Rask & the Warspear Chieftain to have a look at and with the way things have been going we have another, shall we say, 'colossal' prize for you. For a chance to win simply leave a comment on this post via the Beasts of War website and your very own Galleon could be winging its way to you!


































Warmachine rearly dissapoints. But Rask looks too little warlocky to me, all Warspears are cool and Galleon… hmmm have to see by my own eyes 😉
Galleon looks great makes me want to start pirates, Rask looks nice too.
the first sentence is irony right?
I just got in to warmachine and this looks cool
I love the concept of the Galleon. I can definitely picture one of these sitting on the docks at Berck, though how Ashlynn might smuggle one into occupied Llael is anyone’s guess!
Cool stuff. But magnetizing that tongue sounds … um, well. Gotta be a better solution to that.
No, no, it can work… just get bigger magnets !
I played against the galleon the other day, was such a damn cool model that loosing was (mildly ) ok.
The galleon just has that coupled together. Just so different to a lot of Warmachine stuff
Really like these models. Think the trident is a tad to big, but nothing a bit of conversion couldn’t fix. Maybe add a HUGE piece of toast on it for giggles. 😀
The galleon’s got to be one of my favourites for it’s character. Like the other colossals it’s effectively a scaled up jack, but this one is piratey and we all know pirates are cool!
Love the look of the Warmachine mercenaries.
This Galleon really looks like a scrap built whale-hunter device, but it has its own character. Nice work, I really like the trident! 🙂
The galleon is a huge piece, hope I’ll see him on the table soon!
that galleon is beautiful
The Galleon looks cool and could also make a nice Ork Deff Dread!
Another nice video. You start off with two models for factions I’m thinking of starting and finish with one for a faction I already play. If 2 out of 3 aint bad whats 3 out of 4?
erm…..one? hehe 😀
Those Galleons paint up so well and look great with weathering.
the cheiftan is awesome
Even I play Cryx, I just love the look of the Galleon! I think it’s the best lookin colossal out there. Only thing that’s more beatiful is the Trollbloods Gargantuan 😀
Awesome! More Merc love with the Galleon which looks all slapped together from any spare parts lying around which fits so well with the Mercs look & style. A Scorpion paint scheme would be fantastic good call there. “GET OVER HERE!”, “COME ‘EEEERR!”.
Mercs and Galleon FTMFW.
Rask sounds cool, I’d like to give him a try since I play Trollbloods.
Speaking of my boys-in-blue *squwee at the Swamp Troll, but we need a resin (and better looking) Slag Troll. Pretty please with a cold beer on top Privateer Press?
The Chieftain looks badass And since Warspears come with Legion in the Hordes 2-player battle box, there’s something for would be Legion players to grab as their first UA.
Very nice models
I realy like it !!
Itching to try this guy out with Broadsides Bart. Saw someone proxy two of them with Bart and all the shenanigans with Hotshot and Broadsides…four Harpoons a turn potentially!
Love the Galleon, I’d just add a pirate flag to it! 🙂
When I first glimpsed the pic of Galleon I almost thought it was an ork dread
ohh how i wish kreoss 3’s force hammer and galleons harpoon affected colossals
I like all the colossal and gargantuan models but the Galleon is by far the coolest. There are very, very nice painted examples appearing on the PP forums.
Nice video, Stu is getting really slick presenting them. I like Rask a lot and the swamp troll looks cool, of course the Galleon looks awesome too and would be a great addition to my growing mercenaries army.
The warspear chieftain is a monster, me likey
Not diggin’ the left arm. It looks like it should be unloading containers off of a cargo ship not tearing into hapless heavy warjacks. Maybe that is the idea though.
Well yeah, merc jacks are often converted industrial tools, or at very least they often have to serve a dual purpose EG a mariner might have to put the anchor and cannon in the hold to give it free hands to haul chains to tie stuff down in rough seas etc
Galleon would be a great win.
The name Galleon for me implies rowing slaves, are there perhaps any in there?
just The Beatles if we can get @elromanozo to paint it up 🙂
BoW Justin
Of course there are slaves in there, how do you think the arms and legs move? Magic? 😀
Sweet a Galleon, I heard PP is going to be making a Rulic Colossal, can’t wait to see that.
Mercenaries are just too cool looking in Warmachine. Had to start a steelheads army just because. I like the rusty steamy lumbering jacks that need a bit of hammering once in a while to keep em going. That galleon might need a bigger hammer though. Absolutely gorgeous! ^^
Wonder who won the last colossal?
I love the Warspear UA, finally pushed them above gatormen posse in my lists.
Galleon is the best looking colossal by far.
Nice Video guys, a GalleonT effort…..groan, glad to see the jokes still going Ming (aka Justin), hehe 😀 Have to say that the Rask looks amazing too though!!
Really liking the 3 model unboxing. 🙂
Mick
that Galleon looks allright, it is only a little bit weird that, when you harpoon a jack, that jack would be penetrated and stuck on that harpoon, so why would you want to smash it again… awh who am I kidding? you just want to smash it again! 😀
beautiful models 🙂
The colossals are always amazing models. I really like the swamp troll as well.
After watching the last Whats In The Box with the cool Kraken mini, I bought Warmachine Prime MkII yesterday. Just finished reading the story and the history. No idea about how the game plays or the differences in the factions but it all looks cool.
Will have to check out the mercenaries as well as Cryx now hehe.
Am I right in thinking the other two mini’s, the warlock and spearman, are from the sister game Hordes?
Newbie question I know.
Cool video, love the completed pic of the Galleon Justin put up.
Keep it up.
I like the way colossals look but I they are way too expensive, maybe p3 should have made them a little cheaper… at about 60- 80€ tops, thay would sell lots of them.
I love the design of the Galleon, it has such a functional look whilst looking very dangerous! I’ll bet it’s a dream to paint too!
Rask is a nice looking model, made me really tempted to go Minions. However I managed to get the alt sculpt for Ashlynn so I was winged away from those. However I am lacking a Colossal…. *nudge* *nudge* *wink* *wink* Yeah would be nice to add that to her list and keep on par with my mates.
The chieftain, hes nice but I put Legion on hold for now.
I don’t even own a tabletop wargame yet and those models look badarse!!!
Les figs sont tres belle, sa donne envie.
mast have:D
Fantastic vid guys love all the models shown today. Will be picking up that Warspear chieftain for my new Everblight, as I recently went halves on a 2 player hordes box.
That Galeon look’s really massive and hard hitting, but other models are cool to I think about collecting legion so Warspear Chieftain is intrusting for me.
Galleon is epic…it has cannon pecks…not sure about its head but all in all pretty damn nifty!
Nice review
The Galleon is a great looking model; mechanized steam-punk is one of my favorite looks.
I agree with your great guest less Swampy and more me, err, him 😉
Love all the extra details on the Galleon, really gives the model some flavour! Can’t wait to see the Rhulic Colossal though, should be a fine piece as well.
I’ve not played Warmachine but that galleon model would make some one hell of a first mdel. If only there was some way of winning one.
Awesome model. It makes me want to get some merc casters to get one. Galleon ship ahoy!
I like that Galleon model the most from all the super big robots they have out. This may get me into a Warmachine army.
I’ve never really considered mercenaries in Warmachine, but the Galleon is making me reconsider. Must. Resist. Faction. ADD.
This is great don’t want to win any models just want to hook into more Privateer Press video’s
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsDgMNiF71Q
Thanx guys
The rask looks like some kind of a fishman hybrid, I for one would love to see more like that for minions, after some more voodoo gators. Blindwater for me is probably one of the coolest ideas put into hordes, they just need a little more love.
The galleon is the most impressive model, but all three are proving very popular.
Galleon reshaped mercenaries as a faction, the warspear UA lifted his unit from mediocrity, and Rask is most likely the best warlock in his faction without even having his undead fishmen companions yet.
Man, that Galleon looks beastly.
great vid as always. Love the merc model. I run rhulic, can’t wait for my colossal. Only comment on the videos is that i wish you could show one of the finished models also.
Nice, more Warmachine and Hordes videoes!
the galleon looks so cool!!!
Not really looking forward to facing the Galleon on the field.
Another awesome model by PP go go PP!!
played against a galleon in a tourny on the weekend guy playing it ended up winning the whole thing 7 and 0 so this thing is nasty on the table trust me i was one of the 7 he beat
need to get me some privateer press stuff, looks awesome and might make a refreshing change from 40k
Man those Miniatures look awesome!!
I really like the gallons row of guns down its body i would love to buy this model and make a new war machine army just for it.
Can’t wait to see a Rhulic Collosal.
love the warmachine stuff bring it on
I wonder if anyone has named their galleon “Franken Stan” yet.
The galleon design is just awesome. Definitely one of the better looking models out there..
I love the cannons in the front of the galleon! It gives that awesome napoleonic age ship look with big heavy cannons!!!
Beautiful miniature, would sit nicely in my glass cabinet with my other warmachine minis!
Galleon is a great model with great rules, would go well with my Magnus, Galleon with Snipe or Iron Aggression, I can feel the hate already @.@
I think the new warlock will make a good addition, the Warspear Chieffain is on my to get list.
It’s impressive that Privateer Press can produce such beautiful resin. Straight out of the box, it doesn’t look like it needs much in the way of repairing/filling. I haven’t built any models from this range, but they look to be a joy to work with.
That Galleon looks awesome…..;-)
Really love that Galleon. Another reason to start a new army.
That Galleon looks awesome. My Magnus the Traitor would love one of his very own. 2D3 and Drag with Snipe? Yes please.
Awesome robot crane of doom
Galleon has spurred the era of 2d3>All.
Galleon’s the reason I would start a mercenary (pirates) army !
another great show. love the swamp troll and rask swampy would be happy. the galleon is some peice of kit. love it
Love the Galleon it is my favourite colossal so far.
The crane is so awesome! Hope the Rhulic one will not get one too, make it more stand out from other collossals.
Nice vid again.
Not sold entirely on the galleon model, its big, but it doesnt have the design flow of the other warmachines ones, and to be honest, the hordes gargantuans, at least to me, are without exception better than all the colossals.
Still, wouldnt say no to a free one despite that!
its looking really nice guys, that galleon looks savage, got to love m’ guns! =D
Woooo galleon ^_^ Lovin it!
Gotta love Large Models. mmmmm
could even orcify it.
Need….Galleon….Sooo….HUGE….
In all honestly this model is awesome, then again the ´problem´ with warmachine is that every faction has something that is so awesome that makes me want to play it.
So to iterate Galleon -> Awesome -> Warmachine -> Awesome -> PP -> Awesome.
Awesome
Also, the Galleon can be played in a wide variety of styles with each merc Caster.
Bart for straight up heavy firepower and metal
Drake for a basically undying Galleon with Jackhammer support
Magnus with 3 upkeeps that mesh well with the Galleon
Also if you get the Galleon get Dougal MacNaile, +2 to hit and reroll both deviation dice!!! So if you DONT want your Galleon to be 50% more awesome then DONT get MacNaile.
like galleon but the fishman will always win
As a gator player, Rask is a very exciting release. Tried him a few times and he’s awesome.
Galleon looks amazing. By far the best looking colossal to date.
really like the nautical theme of the galleon, reminds me of something i could see in the bioshock universe
So as its a Merc what factions can take the Galleon then ?? Also think the Rask mini looks amazing not sold on the minions range tho
Nice show loved all minis all are very nasty 🙂
I like the Galleon. It has character.
They look great! Can anyone recommend a link to a tutorial for such magnetising?
I would really like to paint that guy, he looks great !
Privateer Press really outdone themselves with these colossals. I really loved the Mountain King but this one looks even better.
giant warmachines is what got me starting to play this game, more of them is always a good thing!
I’ve never been into warmachine but the colossal models have really got me interested, if nothing else i might pick a couple up just to paint.
lovely models, I love the look of the Rask, great model, the galleon is large and impressive
The Galleon is a great model, but the Warspear Chieftain is really nice!
Definitely would start a Mercenaries army with this in tow!
I love all the models they showed in this video, but I’d have to say the Galleon was my favorite of the lot. That thing is just too cool, and I’ve heard it’s brutal on the battle field as well. My least favorite was the Warspear Chieftain, but only because my pal plays Legion. 🙂
I love the mechanics of the collosals but the ( come here) is brutal I lost 2 destroyers and and half the hit boxes of a decimator to it before i put it out of it misery.
All these latest releases from PP have been great, I really can’t wait to see what else they have in store for us, and as a Cryx player, I really can’t wait to see what new filthy units are waiting in the wings…
I’m hearing good things about the steamroller event last weekend, and am kicking myself for not being able to be there… will be getting my lists ready for the next one… mmm Cryx Tiers.. sure I can work some filth in there somewhere !
I really love the warspears modals
Cant wait to get a couple of Galleons for my P Magnus, though building them does scare the hell out of me, think it they will take me more than a couple of films, maybe all the LOR extended versions in one go.
I just love all the details in the Galleon, outshines the rest for me.
Can’t wait to see some art work/model of the rhulic colossal. i am new to the game and i must say the colossal s are a real focal point.
it’s like titans for 40k except these monsters are affordable and evenly balanced
Lots of lovely models. I <3 Beasts of War.
By Poseidon’s Trident!
The Galleon is very nice design as its broadsides are ready for action. Rask looks very interesting, but they need more minions that he can work with to fill out like the other minor groups in minions.
I really like the look of the Galleon
Woo Hoo. That Galleon is sweet. Way more steam punky than some of the others
The Galleon is amazing.
Great video, as usual!
That Galleon is a stellar model, for a great system I have just started to get into – here’s hoping!
the galleon would go nice with my Phineas McShae army
Rask looks awesome! I think I’ll have to recruit him for my Skorne army.
What a cool model.
Galleon!!! Me want, me want!
Damn PP makes some amazing models! This may make me start on another army.
Outstanding show and tell as always lads, keep up the good work. Hows that for a comment?
The Galleon is an amazing model. The pirate charter is looking even more interesting now.
That thing is a beast
As much as I like what the Galleon does I’m sick of hearing about two of them + Broadsides Bart. I think Drake MacBaine is funnier.
“I’ve done enough damage to cripple both your arms and cortex”
“Failsafe”
“Bugger!”
The Galleon is deffinately my favorite so far out of all the Colossols.
Too fifth element for me
I really hope they keep releasing more Collossals, it’s great that the Rhul gets one within a year or two. I think the Galleon is cool looking, more more more… and a battle engine too 🙂
Cool video and awesome models Keep them coming.
truly awesome models; I would love to paint these!
I like the design of the Galleon, and its seems very solid.
Something awsome to go with my pirates
I’d love to win!
This would be a great addition to my collection! I will paint in like Scorpion from Mortal Kombat
Privateer Press is really raising the bar these days with their large scale figures. I do miss the days of the metal figs. Nothing like carrying 20 pounds of metal around in case some one gives you a hard time with your hobby 🙂
The Galleon would take me a year to build with all those pieces, so would definately get my monies worth out of it….
All looks cool!!
Looks great. I love the hulking dock machine.
Ahh, the galleon. The one way Mercs can get above POW 17 without chosing a lesser seen Dwarf ‘jack. It’s good stuff and works well with basically ALL the ‘casters.
Well it seems that giving out prizes is a great way to get plenty of comments. 🙂
I wish they took away the metal all together on the colossals :/
The Galleon is a nice model, I agree that it has a lot of character and uniqueness. I know he is pretty good on the tabletop, good boost the merc army needed.
Is Galleon only usable for pirates?
I Love how Warmachine allow me to indulge in over the top pirate action without losing that murderous pirate feel >:} I’d be awesome to see a Galleon VS Kraken.
I recently discovered warmachine and i just fell in love with it, sad part is out local shop doesn’t have it(but im also broke atm,so maybe it’s for the better:P).
The galleon model is one of my favorite colossals!and the vid,like most, is really nice put together!
Nice reviews on the products. Love the everblight models, but the galleon is a beast.
love the warspear UA will definitely pick that up my warspears curently look at me from my case too often…
This thing could crush some serious nuts :p
Makes me want to start collecting some pirates YAAARRRG
I’m not really big fan of Warmachine as a game, but I love models.
Makes me want to start playing Warmachine even more than I already do.
I love how the Galleon looks, would love the chance to paint him up!
i don’t really use mercs, but the Galleon is a cool looking
As cool as Rask is, I want more info on Midas. Pigs is what I like (come on: Bringer of Most Massive Destruction?) and I’m hoping they get a bit better with this next book. Already liking the lessers (being my current faction is Legion) to add more models and versatility to the Minions. love the videos guys, keep it up!
In best donkey voice “Pick me, pick me!”
In all seriousness, good job chaps! Planning to build my Hyperion today so we’ll see if that gets together in one evening…
A great model for a great game system
Looks great, would love to paint one of these!
Thats a monster of a warjack!!
Great vid guys! The Galleon looks amazing in person, Rask plays like a boss, and the way PP balances the less used units with UAs is a ingenious way to bring more balance to the game.
Here’s Rask’s Tier list btw……your welcome 🙂

loving all free models but am absolutely terrified of Rask, a trog so hard he would leave his warbeasts at home if he could ( and bring lot’s of gatorman posses instead 😉 )
Nice lookin’ model
The Galleon makes Bart giddy.
Another great show with another great colossal, I really like the look of this one personally. I like the nautical look of it, probably one of my favorite pieces.
I watch whats in the box all the time. well since i got into warmachine. Mainly to learn about other players armies and also to see what things my army can do that I didnt know. I have never seen a bad video from you guy. Now when it comes to what modle I liked the most,, it will be the Galleon. Only cause im not a hordes fan.
The review on the Galleon sounds spot on, I personally have the Menoth Judicator and all i felt i needed to Pin was the arms. Im lookin to start a Mercs army and The Galleon will definitely be an addition (hopefully the one your givin out)
My pirates force needs a Galleon to stand up to Khador!
Wow that Galleon has got to be one of my favourite Colossals! Just love the industrial look of it 🙂
The Galleon is amazing! Must resist buying two of them!
Looks like it may be a cool game. I may have to check it out.
Another great unboxing. Was really happy to see the very light review of the units’ abilities and what not.
Looks cool beans!
the Galleon is the coolest colossal but there all sweet.
I’ve been looking into mercs for a while now. The Galeon would be an awesome centerpiece for my upcoming force of them.
Galleon looks amazing
The Galleon is easily the nicest looking of the colossals and gargantuans. Closely followed by the Mountain King.
It’s one of the better too. I would really like one.
Give me… Give Me!!! I would love a to get the gallon… and to paint yellow and black would be al-some!! Yo ho ho a Pirates Life For Me!! This would be my first Colossal and it my for one of the 2 armies i collect. ( Merc and Khador) (the Beetles inside well see what i can do!)
That Galleon looks amazing!
Really like the Warspear Chieftain (like a lot of the comments do). Galleon is cool, nice and “raw”, but of these, Rask is my least favorite – not bad, just not as MEAN as the others.
another great model for mercs! love it
As much as I love the look of the Galleon, I can’t wait for the announced Rhulic Collosal to be released 🙂
The mercenaries have always appealed with their fantastic looking units and characters but the Galleon has just put them completely over the edge…what a fantastic model.
Who does’nt love pirates
this model needs lots of magnets
not sure if its to late but go go gadget attmpt at mooching
Seeing this model, is nearly enough to take me away from 40K. it is so damn impressive
wasnt this vid on a week ago? who won darn it!
Not a big fan of the Giant Junkyard ‘Galleon’ too scrappy for my liking – Rask has the appearance i always imagined for a Boss-level D&D Sauhagin – Loving the Warspear Chieftan though, Wish he had more spears on his back though
It’s big!!
nothing sexier than a fishnet on a miniature
like the new un boxing style vids.
The Galleon is a nice model.
shiver me girders. I want!
nice vid
Wow. That is a cool looking mini.
Warspears!
I am Entered! Oh man the Galleon is the coolest of the Colossals in my opinion, they saw a ship crane, a docked ship, a cargo a warjack parts and a giant trident and put it together to make this bad boy of a colossal. here’s hoping that I might be the winner! Good luck everyone!
And thanks guys for the great unboxing video…I can’t wait to get myself a Galleon and a Rask!
Rask is very characterfull. But that galleon is soooo huge and badass!
Want one!
I like the Galleon, although i agree the head does look Ducktales like lol. Still a great looking model overall
Best new format whats in the box next, really works well with releases from the same system allow a more round table disussion
Galleon makes me want to get back into mercs. Pirates are what got me started on Warmachine…
The galleon makes me proud to be a mercs player.
Galeon is my second favorite collosal. The best in my opinion is the kraken.
The Galleon is one of the most unique looking of the Warmachine models. I’ve really been enjoying all of Privateer Press’s new models.
need it:D
Galleon is so massiv! Just love it!
lol Stu’s office is a mysterious place of wonderment haha! Love the huge models, that adds such interest to a table. Nice job PP.
I really like the feel of this colossal, but im more excited about Rask, he look immense!
There aren’t many privateer press minis I don’t like.
Galleon really suits mercs.
ok to quote a friend who was probilbly quoting someone else, that thing is a thing of beauty.
I really love all the models presented in this show. And it is always nice to see the big guys up close before you go out and buy one yourself.
that Galleon is massive!
Comment for the win. Pun indeed intended! 😛
Time to start a new army!
Really nice Galleon has to be best one yet
That Galleon deserves a whole table of terrain built around it.
who won?
Love it! I play Menoth but have to get this just to paint and display. Very cool!
