What exactly is included in the Ravenwing Battleforce?
5 Bikes, 1 Sarge, 1 AB, 1 Speeder, but what else? Does it come with regular Bike cowlings or just the Winged ones? Does it have a PFist? Flamer? Meltas? Does the Speeder have a Hvy Flamer or Multimelta option? Does the AB have Hvy Bolters and/or Multimeltas?
Sorry for the bombardment of questions, but I can't find this info anywhere.
Thanks in advance.

It comes with 7 bikes, 1 sprue to make one bike into an attack bike, 1 speeder with multimelta and heavy bolter. The attack bike has both heavy bolter and multimelta. It has 3 ravenwing sprues. In addition to lots of purity seals and decorative junk, each comes with the cowlings for ravenwing, assault cannons for the speeder, the bits to make the master of the ravenwing speeder, 2 power swords, a robed biker, typhoon launchers, and some random helmets and stuff. There are no powerfists, special weapons, or any non-ravenwing pieces.

Do we know if we're at the point where the included Speeder is the old impossible-to-put-together Speeder, or the new annoying-but-at-least-possible-to-put-together Speeder?

So no regular bike cowlings at all?! Great, so now I just need to buy ~35 bitz for that and make a Hvy Flamer for my Speeders. Not to mention buy fists and crap. Bleh. Still the cheapest way to get ~30 bikes.

Curb your bleh-ing. Every bike in the set has the option for a regular cowling - it's on the Space Marine Bike sprue.

Count my Bleh most enthusiastically curbed, then. That will be a great savings, then.
Now to just buy six of those badboys and get that Biker army put together. Too many months of paper Marines makes me long for plastic and metal.

I'll be getting 6 of them when I get around to doing the 'bike' part of my Crusading Marines. My only sticking point is whether the Speeder is the old one, or the re-cut one.

Ravenwing Box has 1998 sprues. But Landspeeders did fit together fine.
Mold lines of the Bikes may be the only problem.

Yeah, the speeders go together decently. The bikes have the ball socket marines, not the old flat marines (as you would have got in 1998 I believe). That's a good part at least. They are a great deal, online I was getting them for 60 dollars from the UK. Was able to make a 1500 points bike army for only 200 dollars.

I am getting about 30% off, so ~$60 per box. Of course, I am going to need a lot of bitz and upgrades, so I need a few Command Squads and a Captain, at the least. All said and done, I should have my Biker army done for about ~$500, which suits me perfectly.

Well, I am getting them from my local shop. Need to keep them in business, or I won't have a place to play.
