Laughingman Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 They did not kill LOTR, how any people actually play that game? A badly mismanaged corporate change in priority is likely a better description. Remember "behind a veneer of corporate professionalism, is a semi functional bureaucracy prone to pennywise pound foolish behavior" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346899-more-last-chance-to-buy-misery/page/5/#findComment-5088777 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgoff Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I bought and build Assault Marines recently and the quality is horrible to say the least. Maybe they killed MKII because their casting moulds are done and due to low orders wherend deemed profitable to be remade as well?

Ouch, I'm eventually receiving 15 mkII dudes (5 assault, 5 despoilers, 5 tacticals) in the next order...

Dreagher Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I really hope that the squad I just bought won't be so terrible to build. My last one was actually a really nice kit, with quite good quality.

Marshal Loss Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 The tacticals (vanilla MkII Crusade kit) was redone relatively recently and should be in great shape. Can't comment on the Despoilers as I haven't bought any for years, and I never bought the Assault squad.

Reyner Posted May 23, 2018 Author Share Posted May 23, 2018 The MK2 assault squad I bought a couple of years back was fantastic quality- still never got round to converting them into a Locutarus Storm Squad.

Supe robot gangster #1 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 All the Mk II I’ve purchased over the years has been good quality, never had an issue with them!

Hexagon Sun Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Was debating putting in an order for 15 assault marines so that’s sort of answered a question for me. The FW site shows skinny legs on the unpainted photos but the painted ones show a different set which are in line with the new fatter tac squad legs?

Just so you know, the unpainted photos show the old MkII Assault squad kit, not the 'Legion' kit; the pistols are a different mark, and the leg poses are all different too! The painted photos show what you actually get in the kit, legs in line with the redone MkII Legion Tactical/Despoiler kits!

okonomiyakimarine Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I bought and build Assault Marines recently and the quality is horrible to say the least. Maybe they killed MKII because their casting moulds are done and due to low orders wherend deemed profitable to be remade as well? i had some terribly miscast jump packs in my last pack of MKII Assault Jumppacks a few months ago. Sent forgeworld an email about that problem and received a second pack as a replacement. They really want to have them out! Also I am happy that I had included some combiweapons in my last order that I might (not?) receive in 35 days ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346899-more-last-chance-to-buy-misery/page/5/#findComment-5089551 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they killed MKII because their casting moulds are done and due to low orders wherend deemed profitable to be remade as well? I bought a set of the MkII assault marines for my World Eaters and I mostly agree with you. I will say I think the quality was fine but the mold lines along the armor panels on the legs are in a place that makes it really hard to scrap or sand down without ruining any detail.

So yeah, they had MKIII Marines and they look awesome with big Jump Packs.

Laughingman Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Both the original MKII despoiler squad and the replacements sent to me by forgeworld two months ago had glaring casting issues, They were ill designed in my opinion with a mold seam that crosses rivets on the outer leg... Well designed kit are built with mold seams in mind....

Noserenda Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I think i may have been lucky with mine, though i ordered by lot a while back when i was still working on Alpha Legion i was impressed at how clean the casts were. Of course, this is likely waaaay back before Betrayal and thus probably before the moulds got ragged!I wish i could order some more now but the previous Last chances have ragged my wallet :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346899-more-last-chance-to-buy-misery/page/5/#findComment-5090388 Share on other sites More sharing options...
