Finecast Follow-up



Alright guys, quick follow-up on those bugs that I bought.

Called GW Monday and explained the situation, they had 2 new models sent out and they just arrived yesterday.

Elated that I'd basically just gotten $50 worth of extra models, I cracked them open.

THEY ARE WORSE THAN THE ORIGINALS.

The Hive Guard was missing a huge chunk of detail in his collar (where a piece of the mold ripped off on the last model pulled), and the Tyrant guard has a series of air bubbles down his head and torso that follow the mold line.

At first, the Tyrant Guard looked pristine. It wasn’t until I tried to scrape the mold line that the whole front caved in.

Luckily, I got a hold of GW before they closed and I have a second package on the way. We shall see how that goes.

The Tyrant Guard is fixable, but I'll have to fiddle with the Hive Guard.

(I'll try and get pictures up soon.)
