I'm going to be ordering custom foam cutouts from:
http://battlefoam.com/catalog.php?item=87&catid=3&ret=catalog.php%3Fcategory%3D3

On their custom tray creator (http://battlefoam.com/tray.html) they have unique shape sizes for a Fire Prism and a "Eldar Tank." However they don't have one for the Eldar Falcon...Does anyone have experience with battlefoam tray creator and which size I should make? Or which body type the Falcon is compared to the Fire Prism or "Eldar Tank" cutout.


*Note: The reason I'm not looking at the model myself is because I haven't built them yet and I am still ordering them. Thus don't own them right now yet. I want to get the foam cutouts already though since my friend told me it takes quite a while.*

Thanks for your help!

The Falcon and Fire Prism use the same chassis and have similar footprints (the Wave Serpent being slightly extended in the back). The main differences are their turrets. The Fire Prism probably has it's own category because one of the turret options is huge...at least as long as the vehicle itself.

Looking at their site, it looks like the "eldar tank" option is already set to accommodate the wave serpent and falcon.

Is there a way to order a Falcon turret that can possibly attach to a Fire Prism to convert back and forth? (since they share the same body) I haven't been able to see the bodies yet to tell if the turret slots fit the same way...

If it's anything like the other eldar tanks, the turrets are probably the easiest things to magnetize in the GW range. I don't know about ordering a separate one, but you may be able to find something on eBay. Another difference between the Falcon and Fire Prism is that the Prism has wing extensions at the rear near the engines. I don't know if those are a big deal to either just leave on or make them removable.
