Madurai posted:Is that one of the space dudes from Moonraker? I lol'd but I have no idea, the descriptions for these aren't very informative and it looks like he has more than one. "I really love the old minis. I know this isn't one of them but I can only guess that the original owner of this and the others I have like it wanted something with the feel of the old Iron Claw Jump Troopers line. The resemblances to Jump Trooper 2 are scary. So I'm guessing this is Resin as it doesn't work with plastic glue. I've done some work on these, but more work is needed, that's why the price is lower. You will have some holes to fill, some flash to scrape away. "

Can't see Billy's right hand because Jesse Ventura's in the way but if he's not holding a giant bowie knife in it then 0/10 for the project

hard counter posted:probably just magnetized, i also saw these arms on bill duke That's what I thought then I noticed the moss on Billy's based looked different between pics. In the group pic it looks like two thin lines, in the single pic it looks like one thin line.

They probably did a set of options for some of the characters. It's a short squad otherwise.

Len posted:I almost started playing 40k once when I still had disposable income This is why I always gently caress with the idea of using converted historical tanks for Imperial Guard. So far I'm thinking British Cromwells or Russian KVs, anything that's box shaped with tons of rivets and preferably an extra thicc cannon. Wide, flat surfaces are great for adding sponsons. It's not that much cheaper than a Leman Russ and it's a lot of work, but who knows? Maybe one day I'll walk into Michaels or whatever and the model kits will be on clearance.

Cromwell and KV-2, both between twenty and thirty USD. You could even go up to 1/35 for your super-heavy tanks and still pay less than you would for a comparable GW product, so long as you weren't buying some limited edition thingy.

Are you in luck motherfucker! There's actually a tank nearly identical to the KV-2 released for Epic Armageddon - the Ragnarok.  So grab a couple of these and some 28mm french WWI infantry, call it a Deathkorps of Krieg detachment and play WH40K at like 1/3 the price.
