I have been researching different resources for model customization and have been directed to and found some great sites that provide a variety of Bitz that make for great customization. While I have not used all of these sites I have seen some that have. If you are one of the ones who have purchased from one of these retailers, please post your review of the items you ordered.

Thanks.

Just received some guns from Anvil Industries (link above) and the quality is EXCELLENT!

High quality, great detail, good price from Anvil

You are a little bit late i'm afraid. The ever wonderful Kroothawk already has a 3rd party manufactuers thread stickied up the top of the P&M forum.

Whoops meant KilKrazy not Kroothawk. Also heres a link.

My bad.

Just placed my second order with Anvil. Solid Bitz for conversion. Great quality.

Just placed my first order with Custom Minis. Was a great experience working with the designer on my custom dragon should pads. $25 down for the design, which looks great online, and then you can order whenever. Will post review as soon as I receive product.

Asked him for a Welsh dragon and this is what he came up with:

So, I've purchased from Spikey Bits via eBay and they have always been on of my favorite dealers of these small little plastic pieces of crack. I recently purchased their bitz bad directly from their site and I couldn't be happier. There has been a particular bit I have been wanting for weeks to attempt a chaplain conversion and, after a great amount of searching, I couldn't find it anywhere, shy of buying a Chaos Rhino. Anyway, the random bag of bits I ordered just happened to contain the coveted bit I had been searching for. To sum up, I know it wasn't intentional but I'm quite happy with them, yet again.

Buy Spikey Bits.

I used to love picking up ancient bits from bobnbootz. Since they closed in july I've been having trouble finding just the right thing half the time. I'll be watching this thread.

Spikey Bits has been good to me. There's a couple eBay merchants that I have liked as well that have very specific bit selections that I like-

Been a repeat customer of all of these. Worth checking out.
