I'm looking to buy some more CSM bikers.
Here are my two options:


Three CSM bikes bought seperately 3x£6= £18 (I have a number of these already, contain two head options and 'handle bar arms' only)

or

CSM bike squad.
3 bikes for £25
"Chaos Space Marines Bike Squad. There was a time when bikes were simply another piece of equipment to the Traitor Legions but years within the warp have changed this. A squad consists of between 3 and 10 bikes.
This box contains 3 models and includes parts for a meltagun and plasma gun you also get the parts to equip one model as an Aspiring Champion."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The maths is a no brainer on this one unless the meltagun, plasma gun and Aspiring Champion bits are pretty special??????????????????????????????
Does anyone have any idea or better yet pictures of what comes in this set???????

Thanks in advance!!!!!

well for my 2 cents, if you have the bits laying around to make a champion and melta guns and the like, then just go with the cheaper one. if not, obviously buy the more expensive set

I've got plenty of spare bits for a champion but I am (as always) running low on melta guns.

Was really just wondering if they were:

A) metal torsos like the old Goodie Space Marine ones.

B) the 'HQ/special weapons/banners CSM sprue' thrown in with three stock bikes

C)Some weapons

D) Something else entirely???? Mystery Box!!!!!!!

I'm sure I could pick up a melta gun or two for the £7 price difference but if I don't get an answer from dakka in the next 12 hrs or so I'm probably gonna gamble and go for the squad box just to see what's inside.

OPEN THE BOX! OPEN THE BOX! OPEN THE BOX!

If I remember right they come with asp champ stuff but no spec weapons but I could be mistaken.

Really?

The above quote was lifted straight from the online store?!?!
For £7 extra I'd be expecting something pretty good!?!?
Hope GW aren't trying to pull a fast one, sneaky gitz!

I've got a feeling that it might be this..........................Can anyone confirm?

If it is this I'll buy another bike for the money!

I believe there are actually more than 3 heads AND a torso in there, as well.
The Melta & Plasma bits are pieces that go on the front of the bikes, instead of the TL Bolters.

Better to buy 'em separately, IMO.

Cheers for the help all!

I've ordered of 4 them seperately.

When those turn up along with the stuff for ten more raptors I should be hot to trot as they say!

I'm building a fast attack themed slaanesh army. (name to be decided!) I've currently got a winged daemon prince, winged chaos lord, 20 marines in 2 rhinos, 5 terminators in landraider, 6 bikers, and 11 raptors. 26 lesser daemons and a couple of spawn!. Everything so far is built based and primed. I've done a few paint tests recently and these are looking ok and will be in the P+M Blogs section soon. Keep yer peepers peeled!

Thanks again!

Wow.
You just inspired me to attack that ****ing site one more time to look for them.
Much cursing later I found them.
Didn't think that they would be available seeing as they were not in the 40,000/bits/weapons section!
Nope, they are in the 40,000k/Armies/Space Marines/Bits/Meltaguns Section!

Nice work GW you set of ****s!
Glad I've already placed my order!!!!!
