I love those huge skulls. They look awesome. I think painted up and well weathered, their slightly whimsical feel would actually make them scarier.

Thanks for keeping this thread up-to-date... even with models that are tutt buggly.

Mechanika, Queen of the Robot Legion, soon from Hydra Miniatures:
http://www.hydraminiatures.com/

Here some new special edition minions of her:

Tabletop Art now also offers Flying Bases:

Some old Therians from the OOP AT-43 game could also be used as alternatives:

**adamsouza**

She looks like the 40K version of a Borg Queen.

Great thread BTW. Makes me want to go Necron again.

Here's another option for a C'tan

These are still pretty easy to find:

For a short time, Titan Forge made small cyber locust bases, not OOP it seems:

Puppet's War made these Cyber Droids (includes several weapon choices and magnets!) that may be used a.o. as Immortals.

A cyber droid boss will also soon be released:

Check out EM4's "robots" for more Terminator style figures. only $2.50 USD each! They were sculpted by Mark Copplestone and mix well with the "Copplestone Castings" terminators shown earlier in this thread. Combined the two lines give a pretty wide range of sculpts.
http://www.em4miniatures.com/acatalog/ROBOTS.html
Two of the 5 sculpts avaialble.

Reaper also has a set of 4 (not-terminator) "Cyber Reavers" at the same pricepoint!

Mostly monopose, though 3 of the four do have at least one separate arm.

Laser Cut Card, out of South Africa has a series of cardboard terrain and accessories for Necrons.

Everything comes individually, or in sets at a discount.

Oh, and IDICBeer has done some reviews of this line on his Youtube Channel.

**Anpu-adom**

In my continuing quest for a C'tan model that makes me go "Wow", here is a pretty good one from Reaper.

**MagickalMemories**

It's a cool model, but I'd use that for a Tz Daemon Prince (after adding wings) before I'd think C'tan shard.

**greg0985**

I always thought that the Dark Age games Greater Storm Elemental would make a sweet C'Tan shard.

**Anpu-adom**

Blue wang and all, I think we need to concider Dr. Manhattan as a possible C'tan or the basis on a conversion.

**Yonan**

Raising from it's ancient slumber, this thread returns to conquer it's old empire. I love so much stuff from this thread, some really great designs in it. Now that I have a necrom army (waiting patiently to be built) I just may have to add a bunch of sexy lewts to it too ; p Sadly some of the links have died but that's to be expected.

Dr Manhattan could be converted up nicely as a C'tan.

**Anpu-adom**

I keep adding to it as I find ideas and inspiration. While I understand the warning about thread necro, I really hope that no one is touchy about it.

**Yonan**

Yeah I definitely appreciate the consolidated information. Answering a 2 year old question is pretty pointless, but adding to an information store is always good imo, rather than multiple threads.

Possible - how does Dr. Manhattan, compare with the GW C'tan as far as size?

**Imperator_Class**

Oh my god there is thread necro all over this!

Well, yes, but as this is a thread for resources, making a new thread would be pretty stupid, as to be able to keep track of all of the information it would mean having to consolidate everything from this thread just to stick it into that one.
I really hope mods keep threads like these open. Makes it a lot easier to find stuff rather than having to dig through multiple different threads.

This particular model is about 3 and 1/4 inches tall, which makes it about 80mm tall. The smallest C'Tan model (Transcendent) that GW makes is about 60mm tall and the largest (Nightbringer) is about 90mm. I do check before I post possible C'Tan models, though I recognize not everyone may be as careful.

Interesting thread. There was a similar "knock off" thread yesterday in which the op was berated, a mod edited it, then it was locked. curious how presentation can effect peoples' response/perception.

This thread was meant for constant updates when updates are due. But sometimes I have been too busy.

Here the current reduced range by Puppet's War: http://www.puppetswar.com/category.php?id_category=230

Then some Necron-like defence lines:
Preview by Micro Art, soon to be available:

A few of the upcoming PuppetsWar Cyber lineup in development for this year.

Really wish PuppetsWar was a bit more open as to why so many of their products disappear after 5 months. I have a set of the Cyber Guards and they are great as Cryptek models, though I need to get a few more of them.

Necron board I did featuring a lot of stuff made by Stephen Highlen.

**Anpu-adom**

Wow... some of the stuff that GW is bringing out for Nagash would make excellent C'Tan.
Nagash, the big guy himself...

Spoiler:

Or how about the Morghast Harbingers/Archai

Spoiler:

If nothing else, these GW kits would be excellent sources for necron bitz.

Oh please, GW... make C'tan FMC...

Secret weapon miniatures just announced their resin cast crystal formations (which are for SDP's Relic Knights, but the green ones definitely suit necron bases - and also for epic scale games.
