You know L4, you could just drill a hole and use them as fishing weights. :p

If it comes to that, I'll buy them just to save them!

You know V, I believe everthing is created for a reason. It has a purpose. Maybe the Thunderbrick was created to help fishermen. Could be you know. ?:p

Van, now that we are at it, can you compare the size of the SM brick with that of a BFG escort?

Xavi

A little less than 1/3 the length of a Falchion, but much blockier - the wings look thick compared to BFG scale, and the fuselage section is almost 3 x that of the admittedly skinny Falchion. The crenellations and main gun and missiles would look a bit out of scale. Have to dig up some T-bricks to take pics....

Thanks for the info V. :) Seems that the thunderbricks might be too small to use them as escorts and too large to use them as ordenance markers. pitty. Well, maybe next time there will be something I can use around here :D

Yep ... "Van" is right ... the Brick just is too out of scale for BFG !  :(

Don't scrap the old brick however.

It fits in with Squat vehicles.
It could be used as an Inquisitiorial squad transport.
It may be an Ad Mech flying strongpoint.
Use them as ambassadorial transports in special scenarios.
It could be converted by clipping off the wings and adding tracks into a Squat vehicle (not my idea, this).
Remove wings and landing skids, and don't add wheels, to make a great landing craft with that ramp up front.
Better still, glue two back to back after removing the wings and you have a longer double-ended landing craft.
Could be used as a Corvus head or pod for a Titan.
Could be used as crashed wrecks.
Add all manner of wheels and make them looted Ork Battlewagons. ?
Remove the missiles and use them as drop pods.
Arbites transports (did this, bought the necromunda Arbitrators T-shirt)

There, see, and no mention of fishing at all. :cool: :p

PS - L-4, I want 10% of your earnings from the Bricks now  :p

And that was a grave oversight.  :;):

Oh and you forgot:

--Melt them down and poor them into your bullet mold for your Black Powder Rifle

--Use them as ammo for the sling shot you hunt Rabbits with

--Stick them under your computer to lift the case slightly from the floor, gives better air flow around the case.

--Use then as feet for a scratch build Gargant

:p    :laugh:
