Possible, since the black undercoat makes it harder to check. But IMHO if one has a potential for reforges there are certainly higher priced OOP miniatures to duplicate. Maybe he's trying to act smart...

Hi all, Has anyone dealt with this guy before? Zorcminiatures He's constantly selling base painted large lots of Chimera's Leman Russ's and Shadowswords. Do you think they are reforged? |

Between the black paint and the lack of a close-up pic, it's hard to tell either way. I haven't dealt with this seller. |

I always hope not, but some times the clues are there. dafrca |

Hard to say. The prices aren't exactly outrageous so it might be worth a try ...even if they are recasts. At that price the quality would have to be pretty bad before I'd say it was poor value for the money (Really GW's own casts aren't that great anymore either but the price doesn't seem to reflect this...) |

Some of his 28mm auctions *appear* to contain one of the hallmarks of recast models... malformed tabs. |

If you go back through his past auctions he must have sold in the order of 390 odd Leman Russ's......I'd guess recasts... |

Given that info, I would have to agree. |

That alone does not mean recasts, it is all the clues together that make me think so. I mean I own more then 300 Russ Tanks myself.  dafrca |
