I got my 2 Dropships and Eldar "X-Vehicles" from buddy who was working there then. That was 4-5 years ago, and it was not BFG but Epic ! It and the X-Vehicles showed up in a W/D Troll IIRC issue 41 (?), as BFG a few years back ?!  But we know better !

Yes, thats the one, from the codex titanicus. I never saw an actual model until this thread came up, but there are a lot of old AT era stuff popping up now, there are even AT era titan weapons on the GWUS site I never saw until a couple of months ago.
Makes you wonder how many goodies are tucked away.

What I would give to get the material which was supposed to go to the Codex Titanicus II. Zeppelins, Juggernauts and PSI titans, anyone?

That's my take on it too Primarch, we're "old school" enough to have seen that "evolution." ?
Again, J.J. & Co., "shooting from the hip!"
Making a claim and then figuring out how to do it later. May I remind everyone of the "No plastic Infantry!" ...
Oh wait... "Some plastic infantry!" ?
And the more recent, "Guntruk, Gunwagon, Battlewagon, ... etc., etc. ... ?

The page was last modified on the 19th March 2002. Was that around the time that work on Epic: Armageddon started? There hasn't been anything for this model mentioned, even a new Capitol Imperialis has been mentioned! If it is for E:A, I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet.

In one of the initial Steel Legion lists the "Colossus" (not the Squat veichle mind you!) IG Dropship was included. It was basically meant to be an airborne version of the CI but much lighter armed. Unfortunately it was skipped due to production limitations. I have no idea if this model is an initial concept model for that miniature. It does bear a remarkable resemblance to the Thunderbolt Dropship from AT though.
Cheers!

Personally I don't think it is a new model.
It is my assertion (as stated in my previous post) that this was a master done for AT and is not a recent model.
It was only 2003 that Bob N started producing masters (again) for GW on a freelance basis.
The other evidence is that they have produced the SM Landing Craft...
I have no real proof...
It may become a new model, but I doubt it.

Well, as I have said many times before, we'll have to wait and see ... < initiate wait mode >

In reference to the BFG "Dropships" where do you find them? Are they a SG range or FW range. I cannot seem to find them (thought that is not a new thing for I the domesticly blind).
Also, anyone have a link pic of the various GZG dropships as their website has not pics of them.

DSM 118 is a 60 cm tactical interface transport. It's in the GZG site ...

Unless you build your own, of course - but that's after a long list of other projects, in my case.
