Well T/S ... "a pic is worth a 1000 words !" You said it all right there. Great models (as usual) !

Ta very much all, that's what I thought, significantly larger, but also a couple of pounds cheaper (esp with free postage) now I'm not sure what to do, any offers for a shadowsword and a baneblade (SG)? or do I keep them in reserve?

The size differance is why I sold off the FW ones I bought and kept my originals. Too much of a size change for me to live with.

Hi!
I like the FW better, since the scale is truer to size. My FW collection far outstrips the amount of metal ones...

I stick with the metal SG ones purely for size. THe FW ones look a bit bare/plane in places aswell.

Hi!
Once you're at my "level" of collecting, pricing is everything. a single metal tank at current prices isn't good. I rather have 3 FW ones for their price.
Its cost effective. Never thought I'd say that about FW stuff, but thats about the size of it.

You are so nice to accept them all.
Me, I am a size snob, I want the same vehicle to be the same size in my whole force, small as it is. ?

As I said, historically, it works and from a 40K standpoint (?) ... size may vary from system to system ...

Dafrca, the remedy is to make "primarchload" forces. At those numbers size truely does NOT matter.....

Ah to dream...
Yes, I have thought of that, but at this point I am lucky to have 1/10th of the forces Primarch has.
To be honest, my next goal is to make sure in my next house there is a room that is just for me and my "stuff".I want to put it out so I can see it. I hate the brown transports my armies are in right now.

The space in my "War Room" is rapidly shrinking with 9 Epic armies + many Titans !

Many titans... I wish certain unnamed renegade Imperial Commander would send me my 10 warlords.
