Hey Dakka!
I just came across this bits company online a few days ago and thought I'd share it! I'm thinking of building some cool Chaos obliterator conversions with the track kit and true scale termie torsos. The plasticard work is amazing!!!! I definitely don't have the patience and steady enough hand to do this!!! Go check it out!

Those are presumably masters, not the castings (resin or metal?) which will be for sale. They do look nice thought, would be great for a variety of artillery and robots and small vehicles...

There aren't many pics on the webstore but there are some more pics of the Terminator armor on the blog at this website.
http://threestagestudios.blogspot.com/2012/03/true-scale-space-crusader-heavy-armor.html
Looks like they are in high demand and I just put in an order for some along with the tracked recon kit. Looks like he is also working on some knight titans and other crusader heavy robot unit but has no pics up. I'm very curious to see what tose turn out to be!!!

I ordered a set of his truescale termies last week, so I'll let people know what they're like when they arrive.
At the moment he's working on a limited-run Knight Titan (20 in total) - sorely tempted to get one, but I'll see how it comes out and at what price point

It'd definitely be a good idea to have pictures with either a ruler or a known size miniature like a space marine for comparison.

Balance in pick up games? Two people, each with their own goals for the game, design half a board game on their own without knowing the layout of the board and hope it all works out. Good luck with that. The faster you can find like minded individuals who want the same things from the game as you, the better. |

It irks me when places start selling products before customers can even see the finished product. Those masters looks really cool but I'll reserve judgment until I actually see the castings.

Nah, I just happened to check the thread out just as he had posted on Warseer.
Mere chance.
What do you think?

I really want to see them painted. The plain Resin makes them look very undetailed and lopsided.

I must admit, I'm less than thrilled at their appearance. Especially considering the slightly obscene price tag.

These true scale terminator legs and torsos:- £31 (contains 5x Torso, 5x Legs, 5x Helmeted Head, 10x Shoulder Pads)
GW terminators:-£28 (Complete kits for 5 terminators including weapons)
Chapterhouse True scale Marine kit:- £14 (contains 6 torsos, 6 legs, 6 backpacks, 12 shoulder pads)
In other words, Chapterhouse pumps out more resin product at less than half the price.

But the Chapterhouse marine kits are for standard marines and not terminations... I have paid $38 for a Squad of 10 Space Marines but $50 for a squad of 5 termies.... You could make the same arguement that GW is ripping us all off but its for diff units... IDK... it didnt seem that obscene to me... And this hobby on a budget is a tough one.... so for me, i guess it fits my wallet just fine 
*PLUS have you used Chapter House Products? A few things i have gotten have just seems way too cheap and brittle... I wasn't too impressed with the resin from them but thats just me... The owner mentioned in the email that the casts are almost 1 Oz of resin each model. So seems like it will be a better product that Chapterhouse.. Ill know when I get them i guess!!

I don't buy that these kits are substantially different enough from Chapterhouse to carry the increased price tag. I also own a number of the Chapterhouse true scale kits, and found them perfectly fine.

However, CHS doesn't make 'True Scale Heavy Armored Future Extra-Solar Warriors'.
Though I wish they would!
I suspect that IF they ever do, it will have to wait until after a certain event has reached its conclusion....

Agreed. I'd like to see them with a wash over the top to bring out the details.

If other recent events are any indication, then anybody interested better get them while they can.
Automatically Appended Next Post:
I think I'm going to spring for 8 of the torso & legs. With magnets that should give me a 5 man squad of terminators, and then I can use the 3 remaining ones for a Chaplain, a Librarian, and something else.
