Hello.
I know that the models are OOP. I also noticed in another thread on size comparisons, that there are plastic models for this line (Mongoose Publishing) I have a couple of metal boxes but would realliy like the plastic of eas of converting. Does anyone know which box set I need to look for?
I picked up the Troopers in power armor, which are metal.
Will most likely be getting them from e-bay. Thought hammer only had two box left which I got, and fairplay has a couple but I am not sure if these are the plastic one I am looking for. Did they come inthe original box set for the game?

The m1-a4 powered armour squads should be plastic.
The pathfinders are the same sprues with special metal helmets
There are Heroes and some kind of specialists that were all metal.
I am trying to remember what the K-9s had, I think they were plastic with metal dogs, but I could be wrong.
All the larger suits were metal

Thank you that helps some. I looked it up and i got the Vet Cap trooper boxes, all metal.
Will look for the M1-A4 set.
What about the main box? Any idea?

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
