I discovered about a quarter of my Edenite Warriors are missing their right arms. Two in top left are intact models, rest have bits of their right arm missing, ranging from elbow to hand, to the complete arm from the shoulder down missing. Anyone else have this problem? I expect a few miscasts but when there are a quarter of them I wonder about some sort of systematic problem with the current mold? I suspect this Edenite mold might have been in heavy use... :) I'm just going to fix these poor armless lads up with greenstuff, but you might want to check it out Tom. ;)

Chap,

Pop an email to the office. I'll make sure they send you a replacement and will get our casters to check out the mould. It is tough to see on the photo, but we should be able to identify the issue on our end unless it was just a bad batch.

Hi Tom, many thanks but no worries I've fixed them up with Greenstuff so don't bother with replacement! More just wondering if others had the problem and if it's worth checking the mold at your end. Thanks though! :)

Once again Tom, you know how to take care of you customers/minions ! ;D I would have done similair Markco as I like to do a little conversion work ! Sorry to threadjack a bit Markco, but I was just thinking about Edenites, Necrons etc. today. I've made TOEs based on the Necron part of our fan rules from "RAIDERS". I have Necron Phalanxs and Maniples made of various models. Some have GW Chaos Androids & Edenites, some EW Edenites, some DRM Andrayada and one will be some AIs from CinC when they are all released ... They all pretty much have EW Assualt type models as Pariahs types. I've made a couple of "new" units with the DRM Andys. One Phalanx with Jump packs and another a Scout unit. Basically standard Phalanx Warriors with those additional abilites. I'm thinking of calling this lot of units the AI Movement [AIM], or the Android Liberation Front [ALF] ... ;D "AIs of the Galaxy unite !" Of course, the average IG just calls them "Toasters" ... ;D Don't know where they got that name ? ;D < Now we return you to your regularly schedule thread > :eh :whistle

I base most of my stuff on SM1 TO&Es and E:A rules plus NetEpic of course ... with a little SM2 & E40K thrown into the mix ... We "cherry pick" what we like or don't ... 8)

I had similar problems with the Edenites, the Infiltrator Infantry you can get in the "Bits" Section is rather bad casted. I think two third were miscasts, but I didn't bother (easy GS fix).

No hard feelings either, I just accept such things at 6mm :)

Hi!

I do the same, although I am partial to the original SM1 TOE's simply because they are massive enough to accommodate the primarchload. ;)

Has the issue of the armless edenite been resolved? I recently received my order and I had a number of armless edenite warriors aswell.

I want to put another order in however, I'd prefer to know that this issue has been rectified.

About three months a go same thing happen to me thoughit was only about ten of 100 for the missing arms. What got me was tthe missing left legs on my infiltration endites. Ordered 130 loose and over 1/3 were unuseable and very poorly cast.
