INKS Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 What is the easiest and cheapest way to get plasma guns? Guard seem to want an endless supply of them I guess buy the space marine plasma guns and convert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I found I had plenty of spares from my Marine bits, but that said I have generally used melta more. It's not too much work to convert depending on the what/how if you haven't already check the Command Squad boxes as they will give you some ideas :tu: INKS 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedicMike0708 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 You can use the space marine plasma guns ordered from GW, or you could comb eBay, you will likely get fleeced by bits sellers if you want a quantity of plasma, so you are better buying used job lots of usually poorly painted troopers armed with plasma. 3rd party bits sellers are also an option. Kromlech sells beautiful plasma guns, easily convertible to just about any trooper modelled holding a lasgun. INKS 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duz_ Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Plenty of 3rd party options There's also some GW options since the size is about the same between SM and IG guns https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Space-Marine-Plasma-Guns https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-US/Legion-Plasma-Gun-Set-2015 Xenith and MedicMike0708 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Robertsen Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Victoria miniatures has weapon packs with good plasma guns. https://victoriaminiatures.com/collections/weapons/products/plasma-rifle-x5 walter h 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mertbl Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) I use mad robot minis for plasma and melta. Chop off a grenade launcher for the plasma and melta i use the cadian arm set that doesnt have the hand molded onto the lasrifle. They are scaled better for human size.

PensivePanther Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I know this isn't feasible for everyone, but resin 3D printing is excellent for bits like this. Luckily I have a friend with a printer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walter h Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I didn't think they still had bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I didn't think they still had bits. They have a very limited selection of bitz packs which they dont really advertise. Meltas, plasmas and jump packs spring to mind, along with various vehicle upgrade frames, but they don't really advertise them. walter h 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walter h Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Sad they could have been the biggest seller. I had hoped at one point that they might've bought a 3rd party bits seller, and used their skills to make GW, bits more available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
