I would want to do some conversions and I would be really interested on taking a look on the sprues BEFORE buying them. I thought that in the GW site they would have pictures, but I haven't been able to find almost anything.
Is there any site with sprues pics? Am I missing something in the GW site? 
Thank you very much!

Just two things:
1. English is not my mother tongue. I´m really sorry for the misunderstandings and the kicks to the dictionary. Don´t be too hard on me, OK?
2. With the best intentions sometimes comes the worst advice. But you asked for it, didn't you? |

There is where I have been looking at, but I haven't found anything, just a few in the bitz area.
Can you please send me some link?
Thank you!

I would want to do some eldar conversions, so any Warhammer Fantasy elf or WH40k eldar and probably dark eldar would be nice.
But I really tought that there would be some place where you can find all together. It makes sense, isn't it?

I don't think GW sell many sprues separately any more.
If someone knows that they do, I would love to get some weapon sprues out of vehicle kits. At the moment only the Land Raider Redeemer and Baneblade second sponson sprues are listed.

Try and check out "Battlewagon Bitz" if you're looking for some specific bitz.
However, apparently something's changed in their ordering, and I'm not too sure what, so be advised.

Ooops! Maybe I have explained myself wrong, sorry. My English sucks sometimes
I want to know what are the exact contents of one GW "box" and if there is a way to see pictures of the sprues. Maybe I'm not using the word "sprues" correctly, and it means something different that I have in mind.
I need to see the sprues pictures for knowing if they are adequate for the conversions. Things like how many different legs or arms come with different models, and this kind of stuff

It looks good, I have to take a good look. Thank you!

Oh, I understand.
You are right. The pictures are not much help.
Sprue is short for sprue frame, which is one complete piece of plastic. A kit normally has several sprues in it.
To let us see the contents properly, all the sprues should be shown on both sides.
For example, in the Redeemer conversion sprue it is not obvious that the Lascannons are made of two pieces each.
Your English is very good actually. What you posted was completely correct, just that it wasn't plain that you meant a full kit. I assumed you meant the bitz sprues, because that is what I was thinking about.

Thanks for the explanations Killrazy!
So, does anybody knows about some site with pictures of the kits? I think that there is thousands of websites dedicated to WH, and it sounds really weird that no one has a collection of sprues pics...

It may not be completely helpful, but you might try eBay. Many sellers list only the sprues from GW bozes, and some have good pictures. You might not find everything you need, but you might get lucky and eBay has the one you want. Good luck!

Thank you for the link, KingCracker, unfortunately they don't really have many useful pictures
