As the title says!
If anyone else wants 2 firestorms from FW I would happily buy a blister and sell the other 2 at cost.

I'll happily sell you a FW Firestorm Ry, I have stuff I need to send you anyway. I'll send you a message a little later on this morning.

If the pack I bought recently, and their replacements, are anything to go by you'll need all three from a pack if you're to make a whole unbroken model. Most of the turret gun barrels were broken on mine.

On the upside, I now have some spare hulls (including one that is missing the front half). I will probably stick to less delicate models in future.

Sounds like you’ve been unlucky with those Kyrt; I’ve bought 15 Forge World Fire Storms (I prefer the look of the extended ‘type II’ hulls they come with and I'm swapping their hulls with the existing hulls of my Falcons and Nightspinners so they can all have them) and I’ve only had a single broken weapon, though they are ridiculously fragile I agree.

On the plus-side you now have a certain number of left-over hulls and bits though surely? Even if you don’t want them yourself I bet they’d sell for a decent amount if you were to put them on eBay, particularly as Falcons are OOP now.

Have repaired a couple of turrets, will see if they hold and if I'm happy with them. Otherwise, they'll become objectives probably. They are a right pain, even the barrels that were intact were like curly fries. Lots of hassle.

Must admit I do prefer the hulls, I'd consider swapping out my metal falcon hulls but, apart from the effort (I've got a fair number of falcons and night spinners), they make my Epic 40K era SHTs look even smaller. I don't have Storm Serpents (shock, horror!) or Void Spinners as then I'd have to face up to the issue.

I just snap the guns off of my Firestorms from FW from the start and paint them all stubby instead!

Still in need of 2 Falcons though!

How does £5 for 2 falcons sound Kyrt? I would happily pay the postage also.

Sure. I assume you mean the metal ones (like GW currently sell). I'll have a look this evening.
