I won an ebay auction for 15 pounds... as well as a silly-huge ammount of infantry (About 1000 men, mostly IG & Marines but also Orks, Tyranids & a few Chaos), there was a whole bunch of larger stuff, some of which I'm trying to identify.



Nothing to identify here, just a lot of knights!

Are the four metal ones remotely rare?





Is this a damaged Citadel piece or something completely random?















An early lead Lascannon?





Fifteen quid well-spent I think anyway.

Now... back to ebay!  :D

The trio of Knights are Knights Crusader which generally go for about ?10 to ?15 on ebay

The early lead lascannon is, I think, a carapace multilaser

No, it's an early lead Lascannon :)  Came on a sprue with a gunner and a guardian way back in the AT days.

The second pic looks like part of an old Plaguebearer.  In the 3rd pic there is a pair of legs off an old Imperial Lancer, so maybe one of the mystery bits is its' body....bit hard to tell.

Looks like a great haul.  The Knights and 3 Goliath's were probably good enough by themselves.

I'm just ammused by the Gorgons... I only bid on the lot because I wanted to obtain some with the intention of selling everything else back to ebay, but found that the bits I most wanted were knock-offs that quite literally fall apart in your hand!

I thought the 3 metal knights were castellans rather than crusaders?  Dunno for sure though...  

Are the towers bits of a pair of tower of skulls?  May look great on a BFG conversion....

I saw this lot and was also thinking of bidding for the gorgons, but forgot about it- Good deal for 15 squid, real shame about the knockoffs though!  

BTW if your interested in selling the manticores, LMK :)

The Manticores are going to my Brother's Cadian IG. (He's gotten another three or four boxes worth of Cadian infantry out of this deal too).


If anyone wants to make a swap-offer for any of this stuff, I'm listening!

And I'm still after Gorgons! (lol) :D

Fair enough, sounds like hes got a good deal out of the lot!  :)

Also, im wrong about the knights- they are crusaders after all (thanks to chaos orc :))

Good luck with the swappage

E&C, you made out like a bandit!  :cool:


The metal Knight on the far left is an AT era Paladin.

The pair of towers are indeed from the Tower of Skulls and that head does look like a Chaos head.

I don't suppose you want to part with the Goliaths?  ??? Also, I think Chaos Orc has some Mk I Gorgons.

Here's a better look at that 'Chaos Titan Head'




Dwarf Supreme, what have ya got by way of interesting swaps?

I'm after practically anything from FW, or any other bits that could be used in a Death Korps army...

That's indeed a plaguebearer. Not sure what the weapon thingy is though  but he's ?sually armed with a sword.






Interesting lot: The pair of legs looks like they're from an AT era Knigt Lancer but I suppose they could work as Warhound legs. The warhound head is indeed a Tzeentch head and the chaos titan head has the tip of a TL era Stormblade attatched.
The bob above the warhounds look like an AT era Knight Warden body (the armadillo one) and the pair of towers are from the Chaos Khorne Tower of Skulls.



AT era Eldar Lascannon platform.

Nice lot ;)

I have a Doomblaster on my desk, although similar I think the skull comes from somewhere else... though I've no idea where.

Love this ebay 'what the hell was this made from' game. :D

Not much, unfortunately. If you didn't already have a bucketload of Paladins, I would offer them.

I was hoping to avoid ebay prices.  :p  And Chaos Orc wants $12 US each.  :(
