Hey folks with Epic stuff becoming rare I figure I'd shoot a reminder notice about CoolHand's Shapeways store. He has a great model in there called the El Diablo that comes in 6mm (if you remember in the way back machine I got him to debiggerize this for TacComs). I've been using them as a wheeled Chimera variant for my Guard (technically I am using them with one formation which in my fluff I am calling an attached Arbites unit, which make sense to have a wheeled version).

http://www.shapeways.com/model/728890/el-diablo-6mm-scale-pack-of-three.html?li=productBox-search

Knowing these are out there, irrespective of costs, and are not going away might allow you to more strategically place your hobby (aka PANIC) spending dollars in the short term.

thanks all!

That model is so good looking it hurts! Have you got pics on your painted ones and the rest of the unit?

I can post pics of the real deal. They're being used unpainted because... well, because I suck. :D
When I get back to the laboratory I'll post a comparison pic.
