Are the old marines from the Epic 40k box set Cirica 1990's the same as the current E:A ones? I know the contents of the spure's have changed but are they still the same model just re-spured? I ask because I plan on buying some new boxes and I have the marines from the old box set. I want them all to be the same. Its one of my OCD things. |

Yes. Only the vehicles got a redesign for the release of E:A but apart from that they're all the same models. |

Yes. The scouts and terminators are just metal recasts of the plastic versions |

Quick question regarding the current SG infantry offerings: Are all of the sets now metal or are there still some plastics? I know SG has some of what used to be plastic infantry now cast in metal, but I've also picked up unopened minis off eBay (IG, Chaos) that were in the E:A packaging and all plastic.

The 'Space Marine Battle Company', 'Imperial Guard Infantry Company', 'Ork Warband', 'Eldar Warhost' and 'Chaos Horde' infantry boxes are all plastic. Everything else is metal as far as I know. |

Yes. Off the top of my head the following models that used to be on plastic spures are now metal. The rest are retooled plastic spures. Terminators Scouts Marine Bikes Stormtroopers Rough Riders Ork Warbikes Boarboyz Feral Orks Siegemasters Eldar Dire Avengers & Fire Dragons Shining Spears Exarchs (Court of the Young King) |

True, though regarding the Rough Rider: Isn't that just the regular Rough Rider from the SM2/TL era they cast up? |

I have no of my own but from pictures and others peaople telling the heads of the riders are different. The plastik E40k era Rough Riders had Attilean fur cap heads, the metal EA ones have helmets. |
