I have the bits for two Mark II metal Warlord Titans which unfortunately are missing the body pieces (ordered just before stopped selling them and I think the mold might have died for that bit).

I have come across this auction on ebay (item number 390030140469 incase the link doesn't work) which by a massive amount of luck I'm hoping might help.

Can anyone confirm if those are body pieces for MarkIIs amongst that listing? And if so are those two bits you need to make one body, or is there just one body bit needed and they're both the same just one's flipped over? There is also a MarkIII Warlord weapon amongst the auction too so they could be bits from a MarkIII for all I know (I don't own one of these).

Thanks!

The Nova Cannon is a MkIII piece; all the body parts are MkII. However; i don't currently own a mkII nor can i remember if all those pieces will make the body; looks about right though.

The four top pieces are all of the parts for the MK II carapace. MoK is correct about the weapon. I don't recognize the two other bottom pieces.

Yeah the top bits are definitely the markII carapaces, but it's those other body bits I really need (if they're the right ones).

Hopefully someone here might be able to help, but if not I'll trawl through my white dwarves at some point, should have it somewhere.

Now that I think about it, the other parts on the bottom look like the pieces that connect the legs to the carapace.

The bottom left 2 pieces are the torso bits of the MkII. The one in the middle is missing the bottom hip swivel.



The top carapace parts fit well on the old Beetleback, making an interesting hybrid.

Nice work there bob :)

and I agree: The plastic warlord legs look close enough to the mk2 legs to make a very simple and effective conversion.

Excellent :smile:

I will definitely be wanting that auction then - I have all the other bits for 2 of those titans, bar 2 of those torso bits. Wasn't sure if I'd ever manage to get the bits but this will be perfect.

If anyone wants the 2 sets of carapace bits to make that nice conversion I'll then have 2 spare so let me know if you want them.

Thanks for the replies!

Hmm, that is a thought. I could always use more of these. Looking over your list of wants, I see I have more than a few I could part with, including some of your bolded items.

Yep, I agree !  :agree:   Good ID, Boyz !!  Here's a pic of my Mk.III, I did re-arm one of the Carapace weapons ...    This is the weapon in the auction, AFAIK ...  My Mk.II ... assembled -   Mk.II Carapace ... Mk.I Legs ... And a modified left arm weapon ...

Hoi.

  Legion 4:  Not bad!  It looks good.

  silentbob:  I have only ONE Mark II Warlord in my inventory (2 new and 14 of the old beetles) so I never considered putting a Mark 2 carapace on any of my "beetles" but I have to admit it looks decent.  Certainly a bit better than the OLD carapace did.

Oh, I never put a METAL MkII carapace on my MkI's. That is just crazy. I dont have any spares either.  :whistle:

Just cast up the 3 pieces and glued them together and onto the MkI. I had to because I had a couple bodies with no carapace. Not a big project at all.
