Black Knight Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) I am not sure what my flyboys were fed on but they made it across the channel in record time. I thought I would show the sprues here as they seem to be missing from the GW store page. I will add the other models when the second parcel arrives. Pteraxii Nice to see a new and larger transfer sheet, but OMG who thought that thin wire piece for the back of the model was a good idea? It is going to snap as soon as your cutters look at the plastic. Serberys Only two sprues, these hounds are really pricey for what you get. Also contains another new larger transfer sheet.

hermanista Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 The plastic seems softer, I've used a scapel to cut the pieces out and no casualties so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Yeesh that looks delicate. You've helped me decide to wait on these for a while. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 I thought there was only 4 flamers but then noticed where the 5th was, took me more time than it should of to find it :S Might be time for some glasses... I am really liking the models but I think its going to be as bad as when I did my Sicarians, it was horrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Well if it weren't for the wings, I'd guess from a distance that I'm looking at left over sprues from a vehicle kit! Yea Sicarans are similar, but this seems even a bit more fiddly. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted June 11, 2020 Author Share Posted June 11, 2020 I have to agree hermanista, this plastic definitely acts differently to older sprues, I should of easily snapped some of the spines by now by nocking them with my fingers but there is a very faint elastic feel. Its not too different but where you would see a lightening of the plastic when you slightly bend something it returns to its original position instead.

DeStinyFiSh Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I want to add smoke trails to my Pteraxii instead of the flight stances. Do you know how to DIY something like that? Or are there any to buy that fit the jetpacks? walter h and Prot 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted June 14, 2020 Author Share Posted June 14, 2020 I snapped the arm on my Alpha, he is holding the Uzi with less the a millimetre of plastic, so fiddly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frostglaive Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) Yeah... those stands are not happening for me. I'll have mine standing on some rock formations instead or something similar On the plus side, I can at least plan out how I want to convert mine now. So thank you for posting the sprue pics!

Black Knight Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 Added the Serberys sprues to the OP. Prot 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Nice. I still haven't finished my two Copters, and I lost a hand railing from the door of one of them... argh. These are far more complex than the Skorpius Chassis models. I am not looking forward in the least to putting together the Serberys, but I still have zero clue which to build so I'm in no rush. Thanks for putting the sprue pics up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostglaive Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I have yet to buy any of the Serberys units yet. To those who have, do you think the riders would be able to fit well enough onto the Atalan Jackal bikes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 I will put up the flyer pics too when I actually rip through the plastic wrap. The riders look by far to be the easiest to build out of all of these. I will check when I build them if they fit a space marine bike, I have no jackals to compare to, are they close to the SM ones?
