I've not seen these models actually released by GW. Can someone provide me a link to any official info on these guys?

They are sculpts based loosely off gw models. Not sure on quality but they look kinda cool. I've seen the oblit ones before.

Those look to be superb. It's a shame that the knockoff and imitation stuff is so much better quality than the tat GW are putting out.
I'd get em while they're hot.

As said, theyre not GW models. However, the sculpts dont look to be of bad quality. Of course its hard to tell from a photo. If youre willing to take the risk, go for it. The models do look interesting.

Yea, I was pretty sure they weren't GW but didn't know if FW had done them or if someone like Scibor did them. I don't care enough to buy either, I just wanted to see if anyone knew who produced them originally. Thanks.

judging by the seller's feedback it might be worth taking a risk, he has 99.2% positive feedback, with only one negative feedback in the last 12 months. That's pretty darn good when you're talking about a crowd as finicky as the GW collectors.

Not sure of the origins of those sculpts.. but I'm going to take a guess that some of that other stuff he's selling are recasts of forgeworld considering that he's selling contemptor dreads with shipping for cheaper than just the item costs on FW itself.

Looks like a combination of original work with (probably) recasts of GW parts. What I find interesting is the alternate female head for the Dark Angel model. Just remember that any time you order from anywhere in Russia, you're taking your chances with the Russian postal system.

I think that is a shoulderpad, actually.

So it is! I saw the face on it and it didn't occur to me that it was a shoulderpad. Good catch!
