TWC bits


Wulfebane

Recommended Posts

For whatever reason Lord Ragnarok closed the previous thread makes no sense to me. For starters, I chose a thread already in use instead of creating a new one, but have it your way. The goal was to ask for specifics on the tiny accessory bits included with the kit... for which none of the other twc topics listed in the search have addressed.

 

Close this one too if you like, but it seemed pointless.

Can you see them on the sprue picture Wulfenbane?

 

Ive got my box of TWC bits here and I'll happily have a look for them for you for extra info, I just can't think of the bit your referring to.

 

I'm referring to those little round objects (with the 'Y' inscribed in it) on some of the bits, like the rope fetish. Considering the thousand son torso that comes with the kit, I am under the assumption that these objects are little scarab charms collected from 1k Son corpses, but that doesn't seem like something a SW would want to hang on to.

 

I know there are at least two in the kit, but I know that one is on one of the charm ropes provided in the kit. The first TWC you can view at 360 on the GW site has one painted gold, which furthers my opinion of it being a 1k Sons scarab charm.

Yeah, I know what you're referring to now. Yeah, it's the same shape as the buckle on the torso in the FC Lord kit, so I think you're right with them being scarab trophies.

 

Although, I do a agree that it's a bit weird for the wolves to carry the icons of their enemies. I'd be like them taking a chaos standard top and mounting it on the front of a rhino - it'd just look....well.....heretical.

I guess its no worse then taking skulls from the fall enemy and putting them a top of a standard pole.

Parts 109 (accesory) and 52 (chest) and 113 (clip n frags). I guess you could stick 'em all on one clepto wolf! :)

Sorry Banksy, but I need to educate you.

Pretty sure they're little rune stones, not scarabs. Haven't bought any TWC yet, but the pics look like other rune stones from other wolf kits.

 

 

I wanted to believe this, but unfortunately I don't think it is so. The kit comes with other accessories that DO sport runestones, and those are the traditional rough-cut oddly shaped flat surface where the rune terminates before reaching the edges. These "scarab" things are round with a domed surface and the "Y" inscription continues off the edge of the object.

If you still do not understand take it up with me in PM.

 

Thanks.

Since this thread is labeled TWC bits... Does anyone have better pics of the heads included? I can see them on the GW site however they are still a little hard to make out... looks like there are six to choose from is that correct as well? I ask as I may want to use one or two on some TDA WG in which case I will be holding off building said TDAs until I have a chance to get the TWC box.

 

I suspect any chaos bits are for scattering along the bases as I agree that a SW would not carry tainted items around as charms especially given how much power charms are believed to hold.

There are 5 heads and they look fantastic and wild, there all flat necks but cutting of a boll of a unused helmet will work fine.

 

If i find the time and no one has done it before tonight ill see what i can do.

 

Got mine yesterday ^_^ ;) :D :D

 

 

So, will you still be using your mythicast wolves Max?

 

Just wondering cause it still seems like yesterday I dropped the cash for em after seeing how awesome yours were, and now I'm not sure if I should get the GW ones or not. I probably will at somepoint, but would still like to use my mythicast ones.

I will. I have no respite about getting them and they'll keep a dominant spot in my showcase at home

 

I got these only to get my GW SW collection complete, I'll be trying to get every SW model there is as long as i play, I'm sure ill use them but ill mix them up with my others

Cool.

 

I still love the looks of the mythicast wolves, but I really want the weapons, heads, and accessories from the GW kit. Like I said before, I'll probably get a box or two of them, but my mainstay will definitely be my mythicast.

 

Cool idea on collecting all the SW models! I'd love to get my hand on some of the old scouts, but that will have to wait as there is so many other things I want. ^_^
