I'm considering making a Raven Guard force to match up against my Tau. But I feel like, if you're going to make some Bird Marines you ought to do it right, right?

So like, does anyone know how many of those heads are included on the sprues for different squads, and/or what's the best place to order the things in bulk? Like say, an entire small list's worth?

Same goes for spehss mureen torsos, since there are some of those I prefer to others as well.

In the Space Marine Tactical Squad box you get 3.

I'm 100% sure you can find them individually on E-Bay, if not a bunch at a time.

Blackdagger Games is an awesome E-Bay retailer for 40K bits.

Take a look:

Yeah, I noticed that on a search I just did. I'd kind of want 10 per squad, though.

The thread discouraged ebay, recommended the trade forum here, and also spoke highly of bits vendors, although I'm not sure what the best North America based one is.

Have you considered Forgeworld?

I've purchased boat loads of stuff from the guy I linked in my previous post. Highly recommended vendor.

They charge VAT and State Tax. It can get expensive...

It might also be worth asking around your FLGS. A lot of people are love/hate on the old Mk. VI. If you find someone in the “hate” camp, they probably have a bits box full of them they would gladly swap.

GW has been putting a couple in every box for a long time now, any person who’s been playing for a while should have plenty.

I use them as often as I can, and I think I’ve still got a chunk kicking around.

Oh hey, TY everyone o/

I don't actually have an FLGS, but thanks for that suggestion too, Nevelon!

How is your greenstuff skills?

eBay is usually best as there's a lot of guys selling multiple heads at a good price

If anybody has any links to converting the normal heads to those with greenstuff... Please do share as i am planning on trying it but a bit sketchy where to start
