ok i jsut aced an auction of 22 space hulk stealers on ebay for a good price, and theyre on their way here, but suddenly tradgedy struck. well a bit melodramatic, but can one of the stealers fit on a regular infantry base (20mm is it?) if not, what size?
obviously oneson bits of scenry will have to be placed on a larger base etc etc but....yeah pretty much whats the standard size?

Most of them will. A few on the big pieces will not. Hope it helps.

-K

With a bit of base trimming, they will all fit on a standard 25mm base, but some will overhang a bit.

cool thanx

and well...all those awsome stealers on the cheap....

Infact, I think someone posted some pics of doing just that on DAKKA. Of course I literally could of dreamed all that up. But I know Ive seen someone trim the stands to fit on 25mm bases. And its a pretty easy cover up once done.
I agree with you, those minis in the SpaceHulk game are just simply awesome sculpts. I want the nids for my wife, and the terminators just to friggin paint lol

ok they arrived but i have another question. i noticed a group of dynamically posed ones (their was 2 of each, identical pose, but mirrored and standing on different stuff) seem to have only 3 arms....is this deliberate or whut? ill post a pic if your unsure of what i mean or which im chatting about

The arms are there, you just have to look pretty hard for them.
Unless of course yours have snapped off?

Just on the off chance. Did your stealers come on the sprue and if so did those sprues have the plastic basing bits for the card doors?
I only ask as I bought a 2nd set of spacehulk (without models) for the tiles but it was missing these bits.
I'm only looking for the door stands so if anyone has any to buy, swap, just pay postage for or be given for free I would be very grateful.

The SH Broodlord is the real catch for Tyranid players considering the current rubbish. I'd be tempted to use the SH genestealers as scenery pieces. Imagine them tearing through the floors of a 40K building.

They are supposed to have 3 arms, its in there fluff about hulks and the brood evolving.

no, I think he mean three arms in total, i.e. missing one and not including the legs

well its deffinately not there i checked. the leg seems to be covering part of it, and the other arm covers the rest. but theyre just covering an EMPTY socket. i swear ill get a pic okie? by the by, no i didnt get any door bases :( the guy i bought from snipped them off as well as the broodlord -.- the cunning sod XD
