Forté Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Now I know I'm not alone here but I've been drooling over certain Raptor bits with Noise Marines in mind. The heads, shoulders with the speaker grills and the chainswords mostly. Does anyone know how well they fit with the CSM parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milez Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 They fit very very well. I used the LCs from the raptor kit on my termies and the look amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I plan to be using those bits for pretty much all of my troops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think thinking more along the lines of adding them piecemeal throughout the units. But yeah, it will be $$! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wargame insomniac Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I''ll be using them to add variety to Chosen and Aspiring Champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellr0 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Watch the Power sword with normal marines torso's. The way the arm sticks on can make adding shoulderpads difficult and there is a lot of the "soft" armour on show under the arm. I recently upgraded all my chosen from broken powerswords from the normal chaos marine box to the powerswords from the raptors and they look rather fancy. Also, those chainswords look too fancy to go on ordinary troops IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricBasser Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I'm going to be kit basing my Noise Marines. I know I want other company bits as well. Anyone see the Kromlech Fraternity Pads? Looks very suiting for Noise Marines. Then Maximini has Sonic Helmets. Either that, or I was thinking Chapterhouse Studio for the Spiked old style helmets. For the Sonic Weapons, I was thinking Maximini weapons. Energy Guns with the Chaos Vehicle gargoyle heads. They also have a tesla cannon with a dirge caster on it for Blast Master.

chaplainmikey Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Those Prometheus heads that are featured in that blog are pretty swanky, bet they'd look great on a san guard torso! There seems to be quite alot of parts for the marines themselves but i'm stumped when it comes to the Sonic Blasters themselves. I haven't started my own Noise Marine conversions yet but I am using Raptor parts to spruce up my regular EC marines and they fit the theme quite well. Mike.

The Nephilim Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I think kit bashing raptors with possessed would make the best possible models. Something I intend to be working on soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen that done a few times and looks really good (search for tortoise. His a really good). Now we have some extra bits to add to the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the new bits were badly needed for kitbashing, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamv6 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I have used a head from the raptor box to for my champion. Also, the arms are great. I have put a picture of mine on this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricBasser Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 For Sonic weapons, think tje new Forgewrold Volkite weapons would work? They look almost like Plasma weapons, but different enough that they might work. What's everyone's thoughts on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn. Palladorus Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I think they'd make wonderful sonic blasters, especially if you gussy up the business end a bit - maybe add the gargoyle heads from the chaos vehicle sprues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 Not sold on those. Too 'plasma gun' for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
