I am trying to make an Imperial Guard carapace army and am trying to find cool armored leg bitz that would fit the guard torso anyone know of sites...?

And last I am trying to make some models wearing a non space Marine power armor... Any suggestions of sites who sell power armor models outside GW or FW but would be a similar size of a regular human wearing power armor? Like the size of a battle sister?

Anyone have any suggestions for either of the questions?

Check out the void plastic Viridian Marines.

They would probably work for either of the ideas you're thinking of.

There are alot of other power armored figures out there, but in general, they are going to be close to the same size as marines. That's because marines should be larger than they are, but are mostly sized the same height and bulk or even larger as other 28mm "Heroic" scale figures by GW.

Some startling similarities in there, how long till GW slap a "Cease & Desist" on the makers?

Collecting Forge World 30k????? If you prefix any Thread Subject line on 30k or Pre-heresy or Horus Heresy with [30K] we can convince LEGO and the Admin team to create a 30K mini board if we can show there is enough interest!

I don't think it will happen, considering the figures came out over 10 years ago. GW has no claim on the power armored marine as long as it doesn't have any of their iconography. Otherwise they would have sued over Void, Firefight, Warzone and a whole host of other wargames with power armored troops.
