Does anyone know if these guys are attached to the seat already? Also is each side 1 cast piece or are they individual troopers?

I am looking at them not only to put in a Valkyrie but also for adding them to other vehicles as tank riders etc.

The model in question.

DukeRustfield - There's nothing wrong with beer and pretzels. I'm pretty sure they are the most important members of the food group.

If these are anything like the gorgon troops, the troops'll be in 'frames'. As they appear to be hovering slightly above the seats, I'll assume they're not attached to them.
Also, you should be able to produce individual troops with a saw and some green stuff

1400 points of EW/MW Italians (FoW)
2200 points of SoB and Inquisition (40K)
1000 points of orks (40K)
Just starting out with Ultramarines (30K)
Four 1000-2500 point forces for WHFB (RIP)
One orc team (Blood Bowl)

Each of the two rows of troops is a single piece, with a few extra bits for hands/lasguns/etc, and they are not attached to the seats. You could in theory cut them apart to make individual passengers for other vehicles, but there's a fair bit of overlap between adjacent "models" so you'll have to do a lot of green stuff work to rebuild the missing detail.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

I can't speak for this set in particular but I've done this with the gorgon krieg boys. It's a fair amount of cutting & takes some GS skill to repair inevitable damage.
