So, going through a bitz box that's been handed to me, I've come across a half dozen of these odd turrets.
Not sure what they're from, and I can't seem to identify them online either. Apologies for potato camera:

All suggestions and help would be appreciated!

They look like the turrets from the Ork Skorcha.




Peregrine - If you like the army buy it, and don't worry about what one random person on the internet thinks.

They're similar, but the top is domed, and there's no side bolt at the start of the barrels. But, they do look quite Orky, so maybe part of some Orkoid vehicle?

Maybe. Perhaps not even a GW part.

Forgeworld hasn't been around that long, right?

Any suggestions for other sources?

HOW large are they? There's nothing in the photo to indicate scale.


I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).

Looks like an epic vehicle turret to me.

Part of the Imperator titan springs to mind, perhaps one of the defence turrets it has?

Sorry for the slow reply people, but this is it. I've corroborated it with other Bitz, such as the Snapper, Gatling cannon and observation turret.
I can safely confirm that's what this part is.

Thanks for all your help, lads!
