I'll get this off the mark:



I know they are something to do with the Mk I rhino, but haven't a clue what variant they are for!

The metal bit is an old predator part, it went were the rear top hatches were, not sure on the others.

Left to right.... Pread mk2 top hatch replacement (turret sat on top of the front driver hatches.)(yeah, I've got one somewhere....) Rhino mk1 sides (cut down with LR tracks glued over the exhaust mounts...

Thanks, think I've most of a Mk I Pred then, only thing thats got me confused is the sponsons, they don't seem to match the sides, anyone got an old instruction guide on it?

Mk 1 or Mk 2? I can take pix of my Mk 2 if you want. (Its falling apart...)

cheers Dean, tho I think I sent the turret ring to someone else, so I'm going to have to scratch that bit!

I believe the sponsons went over where the side doors would have been.

Thanks Bluesabre, I've realised the metal plates in the bin are the sonson mouts, about there now! What was the difference between Mk 1 and Mk 2? This baby has a saucepan turret

The MK 1 was all plastic.


Back left of the pic is the MK 1.

Huzza! Found it.

Pread D mkII. The Pread A is the one with the saucepan metal turret.



The sponsons took forever because they were really bad to have flash between all the rivits. I swore at this thing for several hours before I got it together.

thats the baby I've got, I'll put it back together then, its going into Sams army

whilst we are at it, i know what this bit is but don't know what sprue or kit it comes from, cheers for any replies

I think that's an Ork oil can either from the old trukk of from GorkaMorka

Didn't the old space marine vehicle sprues have single fuel cans with brackets like that aswell?

yes they did! very similar

I know (or think I know) that they did have the twin ones like that.

hey i have one of those on my tanks, i think it comes with the chimera spreu

cheers people, i stick those on most of my tanks but i'm running out so am trying to see if i can get some more

You can get two of those on the old battle scenery sprue ;)

Don't have a pic but on the chimera there are 2 what look like small rectangular hatches with 3 hinges and rivets on them - I think they are numbered '7' on the sprue and are near the grab handles.
I assume they are used on one of the other tanks - either that or I've just left them off

they go on the basilisk above the front heavy bolter but on the chimera the front of the troop compartment covers it,

cheers gundrek, i'm off to ebay to find some

My turn, I got this guy in a bunch of Grenadier and GW '80s RPG models.



His tab has been filed down so I can't get anything off that, he fits into a GW slot base easily. From the curves of the armour I'd place him as a '90s GW model but I may be barking up the wrong tree.

Anyone?

Can' be GW, far to dynamic! lol

I dunno mate, some kind of old fantasy model maybe, if its GW at all

One of the old Chaos warriors.

i got these fellows in a box lot of stuff at a car boot, along with about 5 others. i thought at first they were havocs, due to the heavy weapons, but then ive been told they are stealers. im confused.


EDIT: now pics of all of them

Think it is the old stealers, ring a bell!

They are Genestealer Hybrids. Came in a Space Hulk expansion.

ohh, thats what they are. ive got them with an assortment of weapons, but 1 is definitely armed with a plasma pistol. it then pulls up the question: what do i know about space hulk? the answer is that i think it was termies vs stealers and thats it. i think i will use them as havocs. much better than metal ones and i dont have to pay another 30 quid.
thanks guys

Genestealer Hybrids, both armed with Conversion Beamers :lol:

And judging by the extra arm and the fact they still LOOK like Genestealers and not Human, I'd say probably 2nd Generation Hybrids at that B)

Or you could maybe ebay them for more... Stealer Hybrids are a rare breed and have an armylist (stealer cult) that is in the realms of specialist gamers...

that sounds like a nice idea. not bad for finding them in a large box of random warhammer at a car boot. anyone want pics of the rest? if yes i will post them tomorrow morning when the cat shouldnt be asleep on my case

What era? Is he a character? Was there a dirty big evil chaos gong that he wast meant to be whacking?

Could you please elaborate?

He's an 80s model. I don't have those catalogues here. I'd say very early slottabase models. Looks to be around when the Compendium and Journals came out.

Cheers Keravin, I'll hit Solelegends for a search :)

Those hybrids (in the 1st pic, from l-r) have a Conversion Beamer, plasma gun (not pistol, the pistol WAS smaller), auto-cannon and missile launcher.

They're from the 2nd expansion for Space hulk (1.0) called "Genestealer" - which also gave us a plastic terminator librarian, psychic power rules and an expanded blip set and larger corridor pieces.

Good find. The conversion beamer apparently comes back in 5th ed ( as an option for a techmarine or somesuch). All others can be used as is today (if you're using them as havocs, then the CB can be either a lascannon or other directed energy weapon)

thanks a lot. thats exactly what i was using the conversion beamer for - a lascannon.

hello all, got these blokes with a collection of metal ig figures, what are they
[/IMG]
and what the hell is this?

cheers to all

First Picture are the Rogue Trader Imperial Guard, still useable

the second seems like a classic wood elf

I'd say pop them outta their plastic base and see if there's anything left on the tab, but Jase and Bram seem to have hit it on the head.
