What do you prefer the forgeworld or GW, basilisk?
I'm quite undecided on this one, there just seems to be something not quite right about the new GW one. How doe the FW basilisk compare witht the E40k basilisk for scale?
The same for the Manitcore.
I just really don't like the Fw one for some reason it just looks a bit chunky.

The FW Basilisks that I got were incredibly fragile. There was so much excess moulding on them that it was a real pain to clean them up without damaging the thinner parts. When I start my IG army (its inevitable!), I am probably going to get both Basilisks and Manticores from GW, although I quite like the FW manticore too.

Hi!
Is there really a difference between one being metal and the other resin?

I was thinking about the styles-
The new fanatic armageddon pattern with enclosed crew compartment as opposed to the traditional style forgeworld version.
Then for the manticores the FW version has a turret with chunky side mounted rockets as opposed the GW one with rockets on a rack on the top.

Well, I kinda like the old basilisks, the new one looks kinda funny. As for the manticore, well, the old epic40k manticore rockets were too fiddly for my taste. Took me forever to get the freakin things to set on the rails. So I prefer the FW ones there.
my 2cents,
