Keep in mind first experiance with forgeworld

So i was given some death gaurd marines and noticed they had defects like hoses not connecting, Chopped up or missing. Things like some of the decay holes are broke open a little more into the body. In general things from around the body where missing, Basicly not what i was expecting. Is this normal for forgeworld or was i given a bad batch?

From what I've heard, normal FW. Just call them and ask for replacements.

You got a bad batch. Call/email them and ask for a replacement, provide pictures if necessary.

Actually, I just started painting the Nurgle Sorcerer Lord and noticed that some of the hose connections, etc are actually sculpted to not be complete. They're meant to look like they're broken/decayed through.

If it looks like a flat connection point where something broke off--then it's a mold defect.
If it's actually looking like the hose 'ripped'--then it's intended.

Many of the "decay holes" are also pretty deep, and normally have room for a spike/horn to be attached and appear to be 'growing' out.

I don't have photos of the 'normal' Nurgle sets to work from, outside of FW's.

The 'broken hose' there makes me definitely think it's intentional, since it looks the same way on the backpack for the Nurgle Sorcerer.

No they are defects. Perfect example here the exact torso's in the pictures there. The one on the left holding the symbol his hose is started and ends at the stomach but the middle is gone. also te other one kinda the sameting i see the hose start but it seems broken and does not connect to the chest at all.

Won't work, I'm pretty sure. I think it needs to be the person that bought them calling up.
