Good bitz usage, the model is really great. Have you had a chance to use him in a game yet? I was thinking of buying AoBR to get a load of marines, do you think it would be a good buy?
No not yet got my tourney practice to do first and in the new year when i start getting my campaign forces together then ill start gaming with him.
In terms of getting a black reach its value for money but i wouldnt buy it for the SM's as im a bit of a hobby snob and dont like all the flat poses they come in and i dont like that i carnt put my own shoulder pads on.
Bitz ordering the dread (the only thing i really like on the SM side is a cheaper way to go unless you also want the mini rulebook)
In short then, if your not bothered about the quality then go for it if you really want to go that extra mile then id wait. I also imagine that FW will be doing shoulder pads and the likes soon aswell so you can realy pimp them up.
In that case I shall wait, I don't like the sound of flat poses. Also I have no need for the huge amount of Orks that come with it, so it would most likely be a waste of my money then. Thanks
What a great looking miniature! Is it made purely from the commander kit?
