I notice that the Whirlwind sells for US$35, whereas the "classic Rhino" sells for US$45.  Does the Whirlwind kit have everything needed to make a basic Rhino (two track sprues, two hull sprues)?  Thanks.

Yes you do get the Rhino parts...
...weird that they are pricing the collectors vehicles so highly! $83 for a classic predator?! wtf? ???

Hi!

No one ever said GW's pricing policies were logical... or sane.... :;):

The basic Rhino is so simple it would be pretty easy to make one from some plasticard... total cost... about ?2 :;):

And if they did, we would just assume the person had not taken their medication.  :p

Well, yeah.  But that's wouldn't scratch my Collector's Itch.

Or we'd assume they work for GW, in which case they need medication, so it all works out.... :;):

Well, I want a Rhino AND a Whirlwind, so I guess I could just buy a Whirlwind and construct it in such a way as to make it modular.  Perhaps I can incorporate magnets into a miniature for the first time...  fun!

Hmm... Just remembered something- a friend of mine mentioned to me that he is possibly looking to sell some of his Space Wolves.. which include a few Rhinos (some painted and some unpainted).

If you like I could ask what he wants for them.... ???

My budget is all tied up in eBay auctions for the moment.  I am just planning what to do in another month or so...  thanks, though.

Okay, cool, drop me a PM if you would like me to ask him when you have some more cash! :;):

Will do!  I figured I should get everything needed from the Force Org charts before I start buying vehicals.  That means another tactical squad, and I won't be satisfied with anything less than the original Rogue Trader plastic marines, for some reason.  We'll see how long it takes me to win an auction!
