Here are a couple. I have some more, but Photobucket does not seem to want to upload them.
These appear to be Nick Tomkins' Titans.

The guy that ended up buying the Imperator Prototype passed away a few years back. Having met him a couple times I was half tempted to contact his widow and ask if she was interested in selling it to someone (me) that would give her a fair price. However, I then thought that it might sound a bit tacky.
As for the Armorcast Warlords, I know there are at least 5 in existence, although at this point I think there might be a few recasts out there too. As a fair warning, there is a guy from Florida (at least he was in Florida as of 2009) attempting to sell his AC Warlord. At least two guys have paid him for it, only to have their money gone and nothing to show for it. I almost got duped as well.

They work OK in epic scale, but I much much prefer the FW reimagining of them for 28mm rather than Armorcast's straight up up scaling (which they had no choice about but still)

The new FW models certainly are gorgeous - these older ones look like over-sized McDonald's Happy Meal toys.

There is no doubt that the FW ones are better in almost every regard. The Armorcast ones were easy to assemble though, and were designed to let you swap weapons.....something FW designs lack.

IIRC Armorcast could not alter the proportions or details of any model, so if they look like they're blown up 5mm models, then yes, they are.
But back in the day that's all we had.

I wish they would have been able to do for the titans what they did for the Baneblade. When they released the super-detailed baneblade it rivaled the detail and quality of the later released ForgeWorld variety. I've actually compared my AC baneblade to my friend's FW one. In some ways it's a little worse, but in other ways it's actually better.

Knowing Forge World they'll toss out an FAQ or something to go with the new flyer book.
Here's hoping the Crusade Imperialis book will go up for sale today. I needs it. Automatically Appended Next Post: Well okay, not available in the store as of posting right now, but..

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

If you run into anyone related to the SG team, could you pressure them to find out if the eventual Mordheim reboot is going to actually be Mordheim, setting & all, or if it's going to be like WHQ: ST, a "spiritual successor" in the AoS setting?

Will do, I hope to at least ask a few questions as it is something I've long waited for. Personally, I expect the warlord will be Thanatar sized with a price to match...
