I'm going to proxy a bunch of boyz as Stormboyz for playtesting, but if anyone has an idea for quick jetpack conversions, I'm all ears. _________________ Neal

How about some of those thin Coffee "straws" stirrers like these: http://www.spir-it.com/c1sp.jpg or http://www.spir-it.com/c9.jpg Think of very thin two part straws. You could cut then to length and they would look like large "backpacks on the backs of Epic scale figures. Maybe a little Greenstuff to "cap" them and there you go.

Think of very thin two part straws. You could cut then to length and they would look like large "backpacks on the backs of Epic scale figures. Maybe a little Greenstuff to "cap" them and there you go. Cheap and easy. Another idea might be to use Plastruct tubing to get the rocket packs. That reminds me. Has anyone seen (or own) the 6m  Adler sci-fi infantry?

The trouble is that the all get added to the box, with GZ and other stuff, and I can't always tell who made what. But, I did buy some, so I must have been at least a little impressed. _________________ https://www.cybershadow.ninja - A brief look into my twisted world, including wargames and beyond. https://www.net-armageddon.org - The official NetEA (Epic Armageddon) site and resource.

However, they were nice figures. dafrca _________________ "Every Man is a But Spark in the Darkness"               - Cities of Death, page 59 Come fight me, if you dare...... http://dd-janks.mybrute.com

Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. I bought a pack #VT16 titled "Mid Tech Infantry". When I got it, I did not like the Darth Vader Helmet look. But having said that, please understand I did not dislike them because I thought they were "bad". Just not a fit for what I wanted. I would not have a problem telling others to buy from them. I liked the quality. Just not the "look" once I got them in my hand. dafrca _________________ "Every Man is a But Spark in the Darkness"               - Cities of Death, page 59 Come fight me, if you dare...... http://dd-janks.mybrute.com

Apparently the high-tech sci-fi "look" isn't it.
