Does anyone have both the Forgeworld and the GW Shadowsword models? Would I be able to beg a picture? I gather the FW models are larger, it is unclear how much.

Does anyone have a recommendation between the two?

I was planning on getting 3 of the Forgeworld ones but I won a lot full of various IG stuff on ebay and it came with three of the old metal ones so I am trying to make a decision whether to flog the metal ones or just keep them.

The FW are larger by a fair amount, but I have none on hand right now to measure. The detail is infinitely (well, a couple hundred percent anyway) better, and I would recommend them over the GW version.

Are they the old old SM/TL shadowswords, or Epic 40K variants? If the latter I will buy them from you.

The Epic 40K ones are slightly longer and have a different barrel (the tip is not a cylinder shape).

They are old old. Old enough that they came with a Leviathan. Which was one of the reasons I jumped on the lot in the first place...
