xenomortis Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Has anyone modeled any DW aggressors? It appears GW use terminator pads as replacement shoulder pads. The problem with this is the lack of terminator pads available. I have 6+ terminators still on sprue and plan to get a box of aggressors. I'm not buying 5 upgrade sprues just for the terminator pads. All bits sites and eBay sold out also. Shapeways is an option but will be approx £25 with shipping for 10 shoulder pads. Does anyone know if standard veteran pads fit and look reasonable?

Halandaar Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 You could just get one upgrade sprue and do a press-mold to reproduce the Terminator sized ones?

shandwen Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 The shoulderpad upgrade sprues really needed a couple more termies sized ones and less swords/helmets. We all have piles of swords and extra heads from the kill team box, but needed shoulder pads and insignia. And the cost (as you said) is too high to buy six upgrade kits to fill it out.

Not something I have ever done but will look into this.

Yeah, DW termie pads seem to be sold out in a lot of places. All I can suggest, look at regular terminator bits in bit sites, a lot of these kits have 1-2 DW pads and they might be still available...

Eh, swords, maybe, but captain/mk VIII helmet/torso are really needed to make other SM kits into proper looking DW. And even swords come really in handy given the fact you need them for new Primaris squads. Sadly, DW upgrade sprue aged really well, there isn't even a single wasted/needless bit on it, IMO. If anything, we need proper DW Primaris upgrade kit with Aggressor shields and Primaris helmets to mirror DA/BA/UM Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/347064-aggressor-shoulder-pads/#findComment-5076305 Share on other sites More sharing options...
