In a recent purchase, I got a what was listed as a Doom of Malan'tai and Parasite of Mortex models. I am vaguely familiar with them from my early days of 5th ed.

I am trying to determine pricing for them, but can't find anything on ebay or on GW's main site.

These models don't appear to be kitbashes, so I'm curious if they're somewhat valuable due to scarcity/for collectors?

Did they ever make models for these 2 units? If so, does anyone how any idea how much they'd be worth? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10264225.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10264225.page GMT Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models?

Regardless of what it is we can only give the standard answer for eBay- They are worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it.


Truer words have never been spoken. I guess I'm more curious than anything as to where they came from, the doom model especially IS a GW model and isn't a zoanthrope, just looks like a giant one. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10264383.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10264383.page GMT Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10264393.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10264393.page GMT Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models?

The vents are someone's sculpting attempts. You can see join lines with the original metal/resin.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10266136.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10266136.page GMT Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models?

So just having a look now, the tail has obviously been swapped or made from putty and the head, once you zoom in, is a Zoey head with the brain part of another one stuck on top, which gives it the length.

I'll check again when I get home, but I'm pretty sure the thing's 100% pewter. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10266627.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10266627.page GMT Re:Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10266636.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10266636.page GMT Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models?
If its made of pewter it was kit bashed/green stuff first. Then they made their own mold of their custom model. Then they poured the pewter and cast their own model.

No company ever produced that model.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10268001.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10268001.page GMT Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models? Value wise it's pretty worthless these days.
As said it's a conversion, not a great one, and for a unit entry that no longer exists.
I'd imagine that your parasite is the same.

Troll Forged miniatures used to do a pretty nice DOM, I think that the only unofficial model out there.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10268479.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10268479.page GMT Parasite of Mortex and Doom of Malan'tai - pricing suggestions for models?

You guys were right, I took a second look and it's just a normal model that's been built-up. So, basically just a normal zoanthrope. No problem though, thanks!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10270051.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/768064/10270051.page GMT
