Life Size Rhino

From photographs taken at GamesDay and at Warhammer World.

I visited Warhammer World in March 2024

From my visit in April 2023.

On my previous visit to Warhammer World, January 2020, the life size Rhino was also guarding the entrance to Warhammer World.

The last time I visited Warhammer World it was back in 2012. Back then the life size Rhino was right in the middle of the car park. When I went in July 2018, it was by the entrance to the revamped and new(ish) Warhammer World.

It was originally used as a promotional piece for the THQ Dawn of War video game.  THQ gave the Rhino to Games Workshop who then gave it a repaint in Ultramarines colours. Here is another view of how it looks today.

It has suffered a little from being outside and is slightly battered and rusty, but this does make it look more “realistic”. This is how it looked six years ago, slightly shinier.

And this is how it looked at GamesDay 2008. It was used as a promotional piece for the THQ Dawn of War video game.
