Short question;

Does the Forgeworld Vanquisher Stygies VIII Conversion Kit fit on the chassis of a regular Leman Russ?
I.e. does it fit without having to be glued on, like the regular Leman Russ turrets do?

Cheers.

Try asking FW on mail, they're usually fast to respond.

If it is like the Mars-Alpha pattern turrets, and I remember correctly, it should fit with some changes to the turret itself, but it wouldn't be a difficult change.

Yes, it fits. The turret has a post that drops neatly into the hull. The only small problem is that it doesn't have the tabs on the plastic turret piece that lock it into position, so the long-barreled vanquisher turrets tend to tip forward a bit. If that bothers you it's probably possible to add a couple pins to the turret to act as improvised locking tabs and keep it sitting flat.

Cheers guys.
