Hey folks, I have a question on Ravenwing Bike squadron sprues. Are they the same exact bikes as the one on the Ravenwing Command/Black Knight sprues? I was wondering because I need to add 2 more Black Knight and a Librarian to my Ravenwing Army. I have plenty of extra Black Knight bitz minus bikes from my Battleforces, also I want to convert the robed rider on the RWCS/BK sprues to a Libby. However I do not have any extra bolters for the bikes. If the bikes are the same I can save a couple bucks and just order regular Ravenwing Bikes. So far the only regular bikes I have are from DV. I was suppose to get 2 boxes from Amazon but the supplier had none in stock so I have none to reference, so I now I'm wondering if I need 2 boxes of Bikes,and 1 more black knight or 3 boxes of bikes to complete my army.

The Ravenwing Bike box gives you 3 of the standard Space Marine Bikes and one of these sprues:

If you need more Black Knights, I hope you got extra plasma talons and corvus hammers, cuz the Ravenwing Box doesn't come with any. However you can comfortably make a robed Librarian from it as the Ravenwing Accessory pack comes with 2 power swords and an entire robed marine in bike position.

Are they the same exact bikes besides upgrades and accessories though? IE the ones were the exhaust pipes are separate? Looking at pictures the regular bikes seem to be the same as the attack bike minus the sidecar which is a not what I'm looking for. I have enough plasma talons and hammers for 2 more Knights. Basically I want 2 more Knights and a Biker Libby to complete my Army but have no extra bolter bitz for the Libby bike.

The Ravenwing Bike Squadron box is literally this box:

Plus this sprue:

I don't have the Ravenwing Black Knights box so I don't know if the extra talons would fit the standard space marine bike. But like you said it's literally the Attack Bike without the side car x3.

It looks like the plasma talons won't fit directly into the front of the Ravenwing Bike Squadron bikes, as they're fitted over the top like normal Space Marine bikes rather than through a slot in the front like in the Black Knights. However with some cutting you might be able to get it to fit in. It will definitely look out of place with the Black Knights though.

Thanks for the help, that exactly what I was looking for.
