My standard Revell plastic cement doesn't do a very good job of sticking this stuff together.<br /><br />GW should really declare which of their plastics a given kit is made from, because these kits are inferior to their other offerings.<br />Knight of Infinite Resignationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02680099835726778306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872043197214131284.post-49053050770073497462017-07-22T17:39:14.232-07:002017-07-22T17:39:14.232-07:00Ah, sales figures on terrain, I didn't think o...Ah, sales figures on terrain, I didn't think of that. Good point. Shame though that this kit has so much potential, but it suffers from the effects of unpopular terrain.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08683654516720470349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872043197214131284.post-48668775166406129992017-07-22T16:51:25.170-07:002017-07-22T16:51:25.170-07:00I haven't picked up a set yet, but I can imagi...I haven't picked up a set yet, but I can imagine what you are talking about. On the business side, terrain type kits don't sell well so I can understand they want to cut costs on these. But as a hobbyist, it is frustrating with the cheaper plastic. But if this is the cost of having GW continue to produce bot-as-profitiable kits, I can be ok with it as they still look cool on the whole.Joe Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580338400200714419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872043197214131284.post-9764542138674636672017-07-21T20:01:17.816-07:002017-07-21T20:01:17.816-07:00Oh yes, that's the other reason I got the kit;...Oh yes, that's the other reason I got the kit; the loverly bitz!

The definition on the detail could be better, but the designs are good enough that I don't regret my purchase at all, and will probably be buying more sets for bits to use in other projects. The Drop Pod is far and away the best thing in and of itself, but I can also see tons of uses for bits from the comms array, stasis chamber, and medicae station in other projects, particularly for Mechanicus, Chaos, or Stealer Cult stuff.WestRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10221228665636182019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872043197214131284.post-39874461103954472042017-07-21T12:58:10.012-07:002017-07-21T12:58:10.012-07:00Yeah, the texture is a big thing too.

Cheap, oily looking plastic, and there is no way the painted versions on the box art are the same as whats in the box, the contents are like you say rounded and lower resolution.Knight of Infinite Resignationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02680099835726778306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872043197214131284.post-72716964738713720352017-07-21T05:27:34.411-07:002017-07-21T05:27:34.411-07:00They do seem to be a step down in 'resolution&...They do seem to be a step down in 'resolution', I noticed the same thing when I built a set. They paint up quick and look rather nice in the end! I'm definitely liking the direction they've been going including little flavor models like these and the servo-hauler kit. Definitely makes the battlefields come alive!Mordian7thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631987711681654113noreply@blogger.com
