WARNING Probable kislev recaster on ebay
« on: January 03, 2014, 10:29:37 AM »
Hello guys,

This Lazarus-Games has strange and very cheap kislev unit. I see the Winged Lancers has already been sold. I only council people to be carrefull. Look at those strange sprues with metal linking various characters a very unknown way...

Yeah, those links look strange. But the quality of the casts seems to be very good. I'd buy the war wagon if getting stuff from the states would not be so annoying (customs and stuff).

Recast seem of good quality, but if they are recasts, it's a little bit expensive i think...

If they are recasts, it's weird because he's not even offering full units.

The bears certainly look like recasts, but he's selling them at more than DOUBLE the cost of original GW ones, per unit!

The command units are sparse and the War wagons are missing 2/3 of their crew.

The guy answered they where not recasts "to his knowledge". Ha ha. The common phrase to say "i don't mind" if you want my opinion.

Games Workshop has a strong policy about recasts. They promise on their site they refund you for any bought that is a recast and they have done it as far as i know, after long discussions with the members of the CollectibleCitadel Yahoo group about this subject.

If the guy who bought the Winged Lancers is here and find they are recasts, i do council him to send them to GW for a full refund, and they will begin procedures with this seller.

I've looked over those pics and I'm certain that he's mixing recasts with originals and selling them at a silly price. x-D

You can identify the recasts by the longer strip between the archers - and the originals by the correct, shorter, fatter strip between the models.
