HE Phoenix Guard Models

BANE · by **BANE** » Mon Jan 17, 2011 10:02 pm

Hi all.

I am currently assembling my HE army and the Phoenix Guard are my current to do No.1 priority, however putting only 5 of these togther has made me seriously consider getting rid of the entire army! I have never before come across such badly designed models, rock hard to fit together, dont rank up at all, one option for one model, really poor.

Has anyone had an experiance with them who maybe might have some top tips for them, please enlighting me.

Wish i had got the old metal ones now!

Tip one: sell the entire army as u suggested and buy another 40k army u can play friendly but competitively with.

lol

If your not quiet I will bring all 3 boxes back to the shop for a refund as they are not fit for purpose

If you put plenty of liquid poly on them they just melt to then fit each other easily

It might have been the old old metal ones he should have got (I have a few of those too)

instead of the new old metal ones!

Got new plastic ones, should have got the metals one you posted a pic of Matt.

Managed to make the command last night, they even rank up!

Still poor design from a modelling POV tho, look really nice on the box too
