marvmoogy Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Hi guys, I'm in the process of making a 40k chess set (you can check out the wip here - http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274763-40k-chess-set-loadout/ I want to get hold of some of the 2nd Edition tactical marines...the ones that look really static, just holding the bolter across their chests. I've never liked the mini, but I think they will make ideal pawns. Does anyone have any idea where I can get hold of them? I've seen painted ones on a well known auction site, but I'm ideally after some unpainted ones. Thanks all!

elohimalpha Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I don't know about the 2nd edition specifically, but the marines from the Assault on Black Reach are really static, bolters across chest, etc., and they're dirt cheap!

Durus Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 If you are looking on a certain auction site, keep an eye out for badly prepped and painted models, chances are they weren't properly primed too. These make perfect candidates for stripping. With a little bit of luck they will look as good as new once you are done and as an added benefit there will probably only be few other people bidding on them.

Xenith Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I bought loads of them from ebay a while ago. Should be your first port of call. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/275288-2nd-edition-space-marines/#findComment-3376522 Share on other sites More sharing options...
