Yup. That's the one.

99% sure most of these are painted recasts although the Land Raiders and Rhinos could be genuine enough considering how common they are.
The painting standard is pretty awfull too: Spray undercoat, spray basecoat. Pick out a few metal details in pure silver, paint on some flames in yhellow and voila. Done. At least they turned out to be easily strippable.

The seller accepted the models back and refunded the money for the auction itself but not the shipping costs.

Hehe. True.
The most compelling evidence is that he's been buying Gargants and a Milkfloat a few months ago. The milkfloat was missing one weapon. One weapon which has been missing on al the milkfloats he's been selling afterwards :p
But seriously: The gargants in particular look awfull: Airbubbles in almost all the rivets etc. You'd better not be picky if you are serious about buying these minis and use them for gaming...

I don't. They're okay, but I prefer the original Warhounds.
