Firepower Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I've come to really like the look of this chest piece and I'm thinking of using it for my upcoming Librarian conversion. The thing is, from what pics I've seen of the naked bit, it doesn't seem to be a normal torso piece. It looks as though the neck portion is filled in, which strikes me as odd. http://bitzbarn.com/oscommerce/catalog/images/IMG_5971.JPG Is it just a normal torso piece? If not, how's it different? And finally, if it is different, can it be fitted with a GK power armor back piece? Thanks in advance.

Bulweih Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Hyá cousin, yes it's filled in, don't ask why, some SW heads came with no "neck", so I guess that's why. But it does fit all torsi variants I tried so far..

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 And you can always cut the round part off the head to get the gk head flush like the heads in the we box Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/275988-just-a-quick-bitz-question/#findComment-3379853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 It fits with the standard back side chest parts but has an extra tab that fills in the hole necks normally pop in to. You can make heads fit by chopping off the neck leaving a flat bit for the head to be stuck down.

Deathscream Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 It's a tough conversion to do, but we have faith in the all father that you'll figure it out. ;) End of Line Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/275988-just-a-quick-bitz-question/#findComment-3380037 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfebane Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Its a scout torso. The heads that fit it are mostly intended to be scout heads, hence the 40k bluetooth headsets. Don't ask me why there's only one. Same reason why there's only one scout plasma pistol arm I imagine. Its likely to help inject some wolfiness to a standard scout box.

Max_Dammit Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Its not a scout torso, they made this torso this way so the heads with the wild hair could be casted, if the ball had to be put under the head than a lot of extra plastic would be between the ball and the hair, making it A ugly and B still not fit a torso Same thing with the torso for the Thunderwolves. Cutting off the ball of a head/helmet works fine, keep the ball to use a SW head made for this torso and you can use it on a normal torso, been there, done that Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/275988-just-a-quick-bitz-question/#findComment-3381167 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerian Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Max is correct. It goes with a couple heads on the sprue that have significant "beardage". Those were cast with a flat "neck", and go well on that particular chest piece. By the looks of them together, I believe they work well, or were intended to be used for Wolf Guard or other leaders, such as this Wolf Guard Leader working with a Wolf Scout Pack: Valerian Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/275988-just-a-quick-bitz-question/#findComment-3381355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
