Long shot here.

Does anyone have spare possessed winged backpacks?

Failing that anyone suggest cheap plastic wings I could use.

I looked on the GW and Battlewagon Bits sites, but the best I saw on GW wea the Balrog wings which would be too big, and on BWB bits its not much more expensive to buy the possessed boxes.

There is this auction site

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Hoard-O-Bits_4 ... QpZ2QQtZkm

They tend to rotate selling the same stuff every week or so.

P+p is flat £1.42 + about 16p for additional items.

Oooooh cool, cheers.

None spare here I'm afraid
Smaller wings- I used my heroquest balrog\bloodthirster wings they fit normal minis quite well. Not a big solution I know (but might lead to other areas to look)
Also I have used a pair of small insect like wings previously.. I think they came from some kind of skink fast attack type thing..
My advice generally if looking for bulk is look for a large unit that exists (by GW if neccesary).. by a box set of them and keep the rest of it as spares..I initially thought vespids but yuk they are £20 for 6- not a good price, look in fantasy core units (where they normally have 20 models for £14-18)see if any have winged bits to steal that have reasonable minis you wouldn't mind keeping in a spares box too

ive only got the one pair i bought off Ben (which i need). however, i would second the recommendation of Hoard o Bits - i have dealt with them twice now (about 15 separate auctions), and i have found the service to be top notch. the only downside is that as they are in the States it can take a while for parcels to arrive (despite the fact that they are posted the very day after they are paid for). no fault of theirs, obviously, but it might need to be taken into consideration if you are in a hurry.

hope that helps

Not in a hurry so thats fine, just don't want to end up buying boxes of possessed to get the 10 jump packs I am after.

They look a very useful service, and much cheaper than the Thewarstores bwb option.

I'd stay away from the us bwb, they are expensive for these.

The two uk sites below don't have any in stock right now, but retail at £1.80 and £2 each.

The bitzbox one I had found already, it seems these are the in demand part from that set, typical!

i think thats because:
- they are awesome looking
- they can be used for ICs with Wings
- with enough of them you could use them to make "counts as" Raptors, but you dont get enough in the box.

if GW sold a set of 5 of them, im sure they would do well (or if they had included a sprue of 5 in the Possessed box, they would sell better).

Its to make Nid-Raptors that I want them, as I hate the metal raptors, unbalanced badly designed things they are.

I bought 6 assualt marines with chaos mutation spru bits and an old fabius body guard guy with spiky hair for sergant with fist.. Best ebay evars (cost me what 1 raptor would)
I have also previously used spare searchlights (the conical ones) for a pre heresy old guy..and a defilers exhaust.. but I think that one might have been a bit of a silly choice.
If you can find the old ones with the turbines on they are quite good and fit really well with non imperials (I've got a few but therey are in use I'm afraid)

All good ideas, but the idea behind them having actual wings is that they fit in with my Nid/CSM morphed theme, although the idea of a Nid with a high tech CSM jump pack has merit.

I have 8 glued onto Khorne bezerkers as custom khorn raptors that Im looking to sell, not sure if they will seperate well though as the models have been undercoated.
