Irish Rebel Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) I know many of you aren't fans of GW, however, I can't resist a good conversion project and was hoping for some help finding specific bits for my latest project - creating the main characters from the Night Lords books Soul Hunter and Blood Reaver by Aaron Dembski Bowden. Aside from Forgeworld, as I don't want to break the bank and wait a month for my bits, where can I find a Space Marine leg set with a bionic leg? The Iron Hands kit has one, but as I only need the one leg, it isn't work thr 40$. Or maybe someone has one to sell/trade. Possibly an idea/tutorial on how to convert one? Also, does anyone know if there are any IG heads with a bionic eye? I've checked all over bits sites but haven't had any luck. And again, if someone has a tutorial on how to convert one, or has one, let me know:) Thanks Cheers Edited August 22, 2011 by Irish Rebel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LonelyPath Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Forge World do HQ SM conversion set that doesn't break the bank, here's a link to it: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Space_Marines/Space_Marine-Infantry-Accessories/SPACE-MARINE-CHARACTER-CONVERSION-SET.html Bits & Kits have also been known to get this set in stock and sell it as individual parts, no idea when if they have it in stock (or even if they still stock it) though.

Maniple Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 GW sells a set of I-Guard heads from their website. Go to the bitz button under 40K armies and then click on miscellaneous. The kit has 10 heads and three have bionics. 8 bucks. Also, thewarstore.com sells a line of faux-40k marine stuff from several manufacturers. Some of those kits might help you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellygrub Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Check out Maxmini's Bionic Bits set: http://www.maxmini.eu/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=12&products_id=101 Some of the nicest resin I've worked with. If you don't want to order from Poland you can usually find there stuff on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Rebel Posted August 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Thanks guys, appreciate it! I got lucky today and found a FW Crusader conversion kit at my local game store for 30$ - that should add a nice touch to the mismatched armour look as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RolfJ Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 if Maximini doesn't work you can also look at puppets-wars.eu *Link* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G. Footman Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 at one point, I was considering converting a perdita avatar, using a space marine. she'd have SM power armor, be holding 3 guns bigger than she is, and riding a t-rex with chainsaw hands. basically what she'd be if GW produced Malifaux for the record, in w40k, my main armies are dark eldar and orks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
