I'm not entirely sure this is where this should be posted but here goes. Does anyone have any knowledge of how good the Tomb Stalker kit is? I'm considering buying that or the Wraithseer. I just need to know if someone can use a complexity or quality reason to help influence my decision.

I have WIP tombstalker.

The model looks daunting at first but it isn't. The components are 100% poseable so you can end up w/ all sorts of configurations. Each segment can be moved left/right up down to give life. Each leg is composed of 3 parts. A ball and socket into the body segment, then 2 elbow joints for posing as well. This give you the ability to simulate the movement of a real centipede.

I've pose mine as it is rearing up to attack. I'd love to get a second and have it crawling over a tank. A third idea would be to take 1 model and 2 bases... have one burrowing using the tail sections and use the other to simulate one popping out of the ground. It is an excellent model that I highly recommend.

The Tomb Stalker is certainly a good model, but if you're looking for something slightly less complex, the Wraithseer could be an excellent model if properly done. I just ordered a plastic Wraithlord, so I'll see how complex it is to repose and all before passing final judgment. The kit "as is" is kinda static.

Not trying to influence you one way or another, just offering a different viewpoint. Either way, be sure to post pictures when you're done! They are both classy looking models!

Precisely. Anyways to the OP I've never assembled either, though a friend did the Tomb Stalker, it looked pretty awesome. Granted he hasn't gotten round to painting it.

I love Dakka.

I went with the Tomb Stalker because I can't get enough of how cool all the pics of it look (and theres always that minute chance it might make it into the next codex). To those who were helpful, thanks.
