Well. I did some more digging, not much really interests me as I said since I'm doing a SR by scratch now.
Regardless, to support CHS who have been very professional and catering to me in the past, what do you guys think of these on some average joe Marines?
Spoiler:
Thinking to use this for a Sergeant or a grizzled Marine?
I am also thinking of these for my Corvus marines, since they are the older and more stock Marines in the SoO
The heraldry seems to be cool, I just don't know how it would fit with this or which marines I'd use it with. What do you think?
It's the front hull piece without the blast shield..

No worries, I am also a grognard and think of this however many years old chassis as the "new" Rhino.
I've got a couple of Deimos patterns coming for my current project, us old folk like the familiar and the routine.

I was hoping I could cheat and get some CH rhino doors. Just some up armored front doors, since I am making a SR and I just got royally by ebay. I got two RT rhinos that are missing the bottom hull bits and lots of parts, (I am replacing with plasticard,) and missing their rear doors. Bleh! I literally had two MK1 rhinos glued together instead of the rear door, it was an upside-down front.

Nice idea, but the current Rhino is probably somewhere in the order of 15% larger than the RT era ones, so it they wouldn't have matched up anyway. That's what the Deimos is, the RT era Rhino with the twin front hatches, round side doors etc.. but in current gen size.

You know, not to derail the thread but, I wondered why they were so much smaller. I wonder if they are legal for play. :/
I guess someday I will get some shoulderpads and review them, since it seems the heraldry shoulders have no reviews atm.

Just sayin.
GW is just sitting on Plastic Sisters waiting for someone to do this
GW could have redone the entire SoB army in plastic for what they spent on just photocopy services in the CHS case.
Anyway, I really need to pick up that CHS Necron defense line sometime.

That is the way the original Rhinos were built: two identical hull pieces back to back.

Oh yes, imagine my joy when I figured that out this morning a few hours after that post. *Facedesk!!!* I thought that rhino was incorrect, when it turns out the other one I had was, as after I stripped the paint it was mostly plasticard. I being the dolt I am, thought it was the stock kit and the other was wrong, so I gutted the bottom rhino for terrain. Now I have to finish the plasticard jobs on both, lol. So... yeah. I gakked up.
But, I did get a CHS shoulderpad for my tank commander guy to be OT.

When I get money again after Christmas season I will be getting some Storm Raven extension kits! I also plan on getting some walls once more of them start showing up.
And of course welcome back!

There's the KS that Raging Heroes are doing in the near future, which I'm sure will be just as well-managed and promptly delivered as the firpfffft, sorry, couldn't say it with a straight face.
