It's the Knight Maegara conversion kit, so presumably they still have a complete normal plastic Knight to assemble as well

40k is too big, too diffuse, for anything to have any impact. You fight an Epic 40k battle on a dozen tables using thousands of tiny little dudes, and that's one tiny fraction of one battlefront on one world in one conflict. WFB can hold a medium size event and still spin it to be a battle that can have an impact on the whole setting.

Also it's less popular so they can change poo poo without grogs making GBS threads themselves.

Can't have the Armless Failure win, can't let him lose, either, else you'd have to wait for 653 Black Crusades to happen before you get another Crusade with a "meaningful' name. 3

Another problem with advancement is what are you going to advance? Really, the only thing in 40K that would advance the story is if the Emperor died/resurrected/whatever. Anything else is just "stuff" happening - the Imperium loses/gains some planets to Orks/Chaos/Tau; an Imperial/Chaos Crusade takes some territory - it's all ebb and flow and has no real, lasting implications on 40K as a whole. Like goatface said, the 40K universe is far too vast for anything to make any appreciable difference on the storyline.

Real talk. They already turned to chaos. You don't destroy a hivefleet with outside help. First company wiped out to a man in a noble last stand my rear end. Terminators are just genestealer treats with delusions of grandeur. All those suits should be torn in half and digested by a tidal wave of mucous by now. How are they still fielding terminators? Their symbol is an omega, right? Who else do we know who had an omega in their name? Marneus Calgar is an anagram for care:  guns alarm .

Missing most of the fighting means we're the largest legion by far? We're in charge now, isn't that convenient" That, and claiming a private empire about as far from Earth as it's possible to get.

Blood Angels: Humorless Rageaholics obsessed with blood and skulls? Khorne. Dark Angels: Love chasing, catching, and torturing guys. Wear robes. Whole thing is a little skeevy if you ask me. Slaanesh. Space Wolves: Eat their own poop. Beards are full of fleas. Nurgle. Ultramarines: Love to write books full of confusing rules. Force other chapters to paint their psykers blue. Wear blue. Upside down omega looks like pupilless, ever-watching eye. 2 Chapters of ultramaraines grew out of a single legion of pink marines after the legion took a wound in the shooting phase. I think you see where I am going with this.

Something can be technically well painted yet still be in poor taste or otherwise cringeworthy. Like how Kingdom of Death sculpts are typically really well implemented examples of moral garbage.

Man, this Angron model would look way better if he wasn't so dynamically posed. Much better.

I think it is a bad angle - the foot positions look correct. Looks like he just glued the arms more inward?
