Just as a thought, do you find there is a scale mismatch between the old
DG models and the brand new plastic range? I have an old Typhus in metal, the Lord of Contagion makes him look underfed!
Thanks.
There is a huge scale mismatch. When I started my army, I got 30ish Plague Marines (a mix of metal, resin, and plastic parts from the offical
PM kit and the
FW upgrades). Those were the first things I painted up. I was never able get an old Typhus model at a decent price...which now I am kind of happy I wasn't. Due to the size of the Lord of Contagion and even the Plaguecaster, it makes the old model stand out scale wise, and the new Typhus model fits well. And I know I might be a minority, but I really like the model.
I consider myself lucky that I started my army shortly before the
DG was announced, and by the time I was done painting the Helbrute, the
PM's, the Demon Prince, and the spawn, we found out
DG cant take Havocs, Helldrakes, bikes, etc so never purchased any those. Waited for the
DI set, and used everything except the new
PM models.
I still have a bunch of the new
PM's that might never get used because.....well I already have 4 units of 7. Thes cale of the
PM's does not bother me much, but with the
HQ units, it does.
