Just thought I would throw up a couple of pictures for people.

In the bag they came in.

Opened up and spread out in the box

**darkdm**

Looks like we'll need some pics when they're built and painted too.

**thegrav**

Nice dude!!! Paint scheme yet?

**Skarboy**

They are cool, I'll grant you. But too much $$ and I hate working with GOOD resin, much less the crappy quality Forgeworld resin.

**Alpharius**

Must... resist...

CAN'T!

These will be awesome!

It's 58 pounds for 4. That's about $90 US right now. Or, less than the price of 4 buggies, about the price of 6 plastic warbikes.

**Orky-Kowboy**

Forgeworld's always a bit pricey, but those are some sweet tanks they release...

**MunkeyKungFu**

Oh they look niiiiiiiice. Mine were ordered last night and I cannot wait to get a hold of them

**MagickalMemories**

They look like they'll be some of the easier FW kits to assemble, too.

Mine arrived this weekend. They are fantastic models, and perfectly cast, despite the complex shapes involved. No breakages either. I suspect the quality will deteriorate as the moulds wear out, so picking them up early seems sensible. Here's the happy owner of a pile of new FW resin bits:

AND CAT! Good point on picking them up early though. Does FW have a bad rep for breaks/bad edges?

**RiTides**

AND a flowerprint sofa! Pure win

The tanks are nice too

**Keldon_Uk**

They look like awesome models!

Very orky IMO too.

Btw which Forgeworld book are the Rules for Slightly sceptical Cats in?

My experience with smaller items, like the Ork vehicle weapons they did some time ago, was a high proportion of miscasts and bodged detail. Most of the Marine extra armour and chapter panels I've bought have been warped and/or uneven. This was partly poor quality control and partly the fact that they use low grade resin mixed with grey paint. The Ork stuff I've bought recently (starting with the Grot krew set) has been a massive improvement, with really crisp detail and no misalignment. A couple of them were broken, however (due to being put in a box with IA-8). This time around everything was pristine.
